First of all, I’m not a Star Wars Fanboy…

I remember seeing the first Star Wars movie end of 1977 and Episode I – The Phantom Menace in 1999.
That’s it…

I wrote him a message to ask for the budget before wasting my time.

In the meantime I did some research, found some free models
and watched particular parts of this deathstar scene several times:

Meanwhile, I got my budget information:  100,-$

WTF, but I was infected and with some help from Forum-Member Tripfreak I decided to do it,

as I had some spare time and working on stories, outlined by others, is always good practice.

While working on the predefined project, some additional stormtrooper scenes awoke and made my day…

The models have some flaws, but were free, so what…

Again, iClone has proven being a reliable and fast animation engine!

And it was big fun to work with, that’s the most important thing for me…

HAVE FUN:



Or watch it on Vimeo (if needed, with German subtitles):

Nice!!
Given the fact that you are not a Star Wars fan, as well the budget and production time, makes it even more impressive ;)
Well done :cool:

That was very nicely done. I just hope that people will not think that this is a reasonable budget...:P

Pieter,
No fan boy here either. I enjoyed the first three STAR WAR movies done in the 70s & 80s but that's it. 
Excellent parody with great characters & great sets!  Parts of it reminded of SPACE BALLS. Awesome super-spaced out speeder bike at the end. :D To me, one of the characters a sub-lieutenant facially looked like an American actor from the 50s-60s-70s named Aldo Ray.
Watching it, makes me want a pair of brown pants for all my "Oh sh*t!" moments. :P
May the FARCE be with you.
