A Word from Jeremy West
Director of "POWER OF THE SITH"
This film basically started as a fun family project that we were going to use as Christmas presents for our family. I put a version of the film on my Apple homepage and told a few people about it in the forums and we got close to 1000 downloads in 2 days before Apple yanked it from their site. I guess they weren't happy about streaming 1.4 gigs of Quicktime from my account in that time frame.
I'd like to thank Jeff for being so cool and posting this on his site. I could not have done this without all of the support on the internet from guys who put up tutorials, sound effects, etc. A big "Whoo-Hoo" goes out to Mark and Dave from Duality. They were instrumental in helping me create this as well. As far as what I used - I was on a Mac G4 using Final Cut and Premiere for the editing, After Effects for compositing, Cinema 4D Go for 3D animation, and Alam DV for most of the lightsaber, lasers, particle and light effects.
Hope you enjoy it. We sure had a blast making it, and my kids love seeing themselves as Jedi.
