Mask of the Jedi

[BlueKnightXero]

I applaud you good sir! 

[Naminski1a]

At 0:49 and 1:48, the blade of the sword is missing and did you mask the blade to put rotoscope the lightsabers?

[actorwriterdca]

@Naminski1a I'm sorry, I didn't quite follow your question. The blades are missing because the "lightsaber" is off at those times. Are you asking me *how* I did it?

[HenryJonesVictor]

like a BOSS!!

[fanoflife123]

this is what lightsaber duels are supposed to be like.

[WizardEM]

Great job!

[isaacdarling933]

@wystendraco

Yes they were probably laced with cortosis weave

[Batesmotel1960]

Count Dooku? I was about to say.

[SpiderFan23]

0:32 "Oh hey Count Doo... AGH! Wait! It's me Darth Vader!"

[WystenDraco]

Those candle poles must have been made of Phrik or something coated with Zillo Beast hide if they could resist lightsaber blades! LOL.

[gamefreakazoid117]

Wow amazing video, the graphics, the sound effect timings and quality in all where perfect you sir are professional, excellent work!

[actorwriterdca]

@gamefreakazoid117 Thank you!

[Batesmotel1960]

Another great one! Please, you need to do the same thing to Highlander 2 The Quickening! That's some thing I'd like to see.

[boyboysamy]

The first jedi was not yoda but Zorro

[ronin241703]

This is sweet. I would love to see how different it would seem if you switched it around. Zoro being the SIth and the others being Jedi.

[Froggy22651]

Given the properties of lightsabers and their weightless blades with incredible, omnidirectional cutting power, this seems to be the most efficient and lethal way of using one. Speed and precision are much more important than strength.

Maybe they should have looked at rapier fighting instead of broadswords for Star Wars. This makes the Jedi Knights look like a bunch of clumsy amateurs.

[WystenDraco]

@Froggy22651 Actually rapier fighting is Count Dooku's style, what he does is mainly fencing, which is a big part of rapier fighting. Though the rapier style may not deflect blasters too easily, as a broad sword has more blocking power than a rapier.

[fidan2fast]

2:00 almost like the battle of mustafar

[Naminski1a]

Star Wars sound effects for lightsabers and blasters are nice! It was sound design by Ben Burtt at Skywalker Sound.

[TheSkiingGuru]

I also wanted to say this is one of my favorite movies from my childhood, and this is one of the best scenes in the movie.

[TheSkiingGuru]

This is extraordinary well done, probably one of the best rotoscoping jobs I have ever seen by a non-Lucas affiliated dude. The mirrors are probably the most impressive part of this, you nailed it.

[actorwriterdca]

@TheSkiingGuru Thank you very much. :-)

[Naminski1a]

Could you please to see the sword duel scene from the 1938 Warner Bros. movie, The Adventures of Robin Hood with lightsabers, please?

[Naminski1a]

This is the best Star Wars Lightsaber Mashup video I've ever seen.

[actorwriterdca]

@Naminski1a  Thank you!

[Ocelot04]

Oh my fucking God. Best vid on the web I've ever seen.

[actorwriterdca]

@Ocelot04 Thank you very much. :-)

[chivasusachris1]

THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN ON YOUTUBE !!!!!!!! HANDS DOWN SIR THE FORCE IS INDEED STRONG WITH YOU!!!!

[actorwriterdca]

@chivasusachris1 Thank you.  :-)

[RisingDawnof2and4]

maybe now those guys will understand wat Raphael said wen he said "it isnt just one man damn it! its Zorro! hes a fuckin Jedi!" XD added a little something but no problem im sure

[RisingDawnof2and4]

lol u even made the blade of the sword disappearn wen he picked it up off the floor XD niiiiice

[Aldolfo89YT]

I love this video, this is one of my favorite movies(and a star wars fan) seeing it like this really awesome. The attention to detail is awesome, but if you dont mind me saying, when don Raphael and Zorro have there blades clashing, when they're face to face, maybe some spark coming from their lightsabers well make it alittle more intense IDK maybe

[shidoshirayne]

Bravo! Bravo! I've watched your other lightsaber edits and this is very very good. Also... Makashi/Form II style lives!

[Tiggr456]

Sir, i hail you as a god

[actorwriterdca]

@Tiggr456 :-) Thank you very much.

[Kalentros]

Nice attention to detail. Particularly the fact that the sabers are reflected in the mirror.

[actorwriterdca]

@Kalentros  Thank you! :-)

[mellowlanternquartet]

In the original drafts for Star Wars, the lightsabers where actually more like light rapiers, with one hand being used.

[GreenFenril]

Awesome job on this one Chris

I still think you should do the Duncan vs Connor duel from Highlander: End game (with the "training scene" afterwords)

[ROVER25X]

FANTASTIC !!!

Chris I have to hand it to you, you have outdone yourself this time, not only do you never fail to impress me with these videos but the skill to do 5 people battling all at once in a hall AND to do the reflections in the mirror makes you the best person doing these videos on YouTube !!!

*Cough, Robin Hood: Prince of Theives Cough*

[actorwriterdca]

@ROVER25X Thank you so much for your interest and support. And thanks for noticing the mirror. :-)
