Fury of the Sith

YouTube

This took disproportionately long to put together. It might just be my slow editing, but it took over 4 months to make. But I'm happy with the results.
Enjoy!
Note: before anyone flames me, I know that I spelt fury wrong in the opening titles. I would edit it, but I can't for various reasons.

Re: Fury of the Sith

That was great! The pace was slightly (but only just) too fast, but the effects were great, and the ending was so funny! *ZAP* mini/lol
A black hood might have been better, but I'm guessing you don't have one. I also like the sith's fighting style.

Thanks! And no, I don't have a black hood- my parts supply is pretty limited. I'm working on getting one, might make a bricklink order when I have more than 26p in my wallet. mini/lol

Re: Fury of the Sith

Ha ha.  I'm possibly going to use that same music in my current film.  I have another song option I might use though.  On topic, the camera seemed a bit jerky.  The animation wasn't too bad but the camera was moved around a lot and it wasn't smooth.  The light sabers were good.

Thanks, I agree with pretty much everything you just said, apart from the lightsabers bit-I thought they turned out pretty awful, tbh mini/XD

Re: Fury of the Sith

I didn't like the fact that while one of the sith was fighting, the other one was standing still. But It wasn't bad.

He was observing how his apprentice fought. And before you say "but he wasn't looking!", he was looking through the force because he couldn't be bothered to turn his head. mini/tongue

Weren't we going to do CGI for this a while ago?

Re: Fury of the Sith

Animation was quite good, I liked some of the movements and I thought the fast pace worked well at some points. What would of worked better is some more camera angles closer to the fighting, so we could see what was happening better and the fast paced fighting would of worked better. Also build more of a set next time, it was quite bare. Some more props and scenery would of looked nice. All in all, not bad, but I think you can do better next time mini/smile

Yeah, that idea was scrapped- I couldn't get the motivation to do a full length film. I just kept the name really.

Thanks, I'll bear all those in mind- the lack of props was mainly due to a lack of grey and black pieces. Besides, imo it's better than having a lightsaber duel in rainbowland. mini/tongue

Could you please specify how I may improve, rather than just saying what you disliked about the film?

Re: Fury of the Sith

Less blue surrounding lightning strikes (You know how to, it's in the settings of it), less camera bumps (Tape it down hard boi!") and it was a bit fast in the way he got killed, more movements. And out of focus. ROSE BUTTON.

Re: Fury of the Sith

Thank you.
I agree about the blue, I'll take that into consideration if I do make a tutorial on the lightning. The camera bumps were because I forgot to secure my tripods screws properly, I was quite tired when I animated it. I was also going to make his torturous death last longer, but I didn't have the heart... OK, OK, I was just too lazy. mini/tongue The focus problem is because my camera only has auto focus- My dad's selling the quickcam 4000 which I would like to use and I don't have the money to buy it off him, so I'll have to wait until I have the money for a 9k. Which will not be any time soon, unless I get a distinction for my grade 2 in piano.
Rose button waddaheck?! >.<
