I'm talking about the video edited type, not the actual thing! :lol:

Does anyone know what editing products allow you to create them? I'd love to fool around with making them. If you'd like a fun example, check out this AtomFilms clip:

Thanks!

Actually you can buy "real" ones that can give the actual effect when filmed.

Try

and look at the Force FX editions

I have three of these and they look totally real, both on film and in person.

Whoa! I'd love to have one, but for $120 I can get another 512 of RAM or some nice digicam accessories.

Do you have a demo video?

No, but I will see what I can do when I get home tonight.

Have not had the chance to make anything up, but thinkgeek sells these and there are a couple of action shots on their page.

$499 at masterreplicas.com for the light saber? WOW! 8O I have to (sheepishly) admit that I have three light sabers (green, blue and the double-sided red) each worth about $20.

I don't think you are looking at the right thing. The $499 ones are EXACT replicas of just the hilt. These are things you just put in a display case on a shelf. You want the Force FX edition which is a near replica but has a light up blade. Those are around $100.

Ahh, I see what you are talking about now.
