Man, this took way longer than I thought it would. Hats off to all the people at Lucasfilm who have to animate lightsabers. I feel your pain. True, you probably use the latest version of rotoscoping technology in your work, but still-- it's a hard job.

your kung fu is good

next Sith apprentice-- Darth Quaalude
