May the 4th Be with you...

...and also with you.

I guess it was towards the end of high school when I first came about this video.  Youtube was in its infancy if you can believe, and so was the content on it.  Then this.  I saw this...thing.  With real effects, and music that was clearly stolen from a movie, in a setting that looks like some sort of automobile factory, where is that place, who are these kids, HOW DID THEY DO THIS?!?!  It was awesome.  It was 5 minutes of whoa.  I saw this and decided that there was a place for my skills.  

Naturally I tried to make something similar.  I remember using a cracked version of premier to "export as a filmstrip" to hand draw the saber blades frame by frame.  I don't think the task has gotten any easier, but certainly more accessible.  I saw this and said "why can't I do this." 

That is why, I say, seek out as many films as you can.  Study them.  Be inspired by them.  Take notes on them.  Learn from them.  Become motivated by them.  Most of all, enjoy them.
