Quick update: this project is inching towards completion. All that remains is to finish re-coloring Leia’s lightsaber purple, re-compositing jonh’s force ghost fx, and completion of the subtitle track (English only at this time I’m afraid).

I have an extended test sequence of the purple saber in full 4K HDR available for download here:

The biggest challenges have been getting the right shade of purple (not too pink, not too blue) and keeping it consistent under varying lighting conditions. Also, special attention was paid to the glow characteristics and achieving (hopefully) realistic environmental lighting. If anyone downloads the file and has any constructive criticism I am all ears but otherwise, enjoy!
