Laserman, thanks for a more critical eye. I see some of the things you're talking about, and frankly just wouldn't have if I hadn't asked some of you real videographers. I am, after all, not experienced at all with video editing. Can you PM (or post here if you think it's not a waste of everybody's time) with instrux on how to do things like selecting just the saber? I couldn't figure this out. I was hoping for somethign as user-friendly as photoshops magic wand tool or lasso tool.
