So was this photoshop or AfterEffects? I don't envy the guy whos gonna have to do the extermly fun frame by frame animation for the lightsabers in the film lol. Well anyways, goodluck and it looks awesome!
Yup, i've done all that before myself and After Effects is definatly the best program for it. When we did ours though we shot our movie in thirty frames per second so it added up to alot of rotoscoping and masking. Well good luck! You will have to post a link or something when its all finished.
I figured out a trick for making lightsabers not "disappear" against the background, if you're interested.
BTW, is this Photoshop, or Aftereffects?
