Brown is dark orange, you can’t do a bright brown. However, I used to play with led lighting, and discovered that if I put a pure red light on one side and a light green on the other of a textured surface, the eye was tricked into seeing brown within the light & shadow, so perhaps if you did a white core with a flickering red and green surrounding glow, with enough adjustment it could look brown?

[@kefas2427]

Brown is desaturated dark orange, think trees or chocolate or anything that is brown

[@l0u13__3]

Your brain can’t comprehend the mixture of red and green it’s sees brown Same with blue and yellow

[@jonaslinter]

@@sub-vibes I agree. The Episode is fantastic. Short summary: Brown light does not really work because brown is just orange but darker. It is depends on context. Your display can show you brown light, because there are brighter things around it. A brown lightsaber can't really work because the lightsaber is supposed to be something thats brighter than its surroundings.

[@willpreston6881]

"It's Orange, with context!"

[@ZipplyZane]

It's impossible to make a brown light, sure. But it's not impossible to make a darker color appear to glow. Sure, the brown lightsaber looks yellow. But the camo lightsaber had brown on it, and it looked brown. I do think that they could have pulled back on the fringing on some of them, to make it match the fringing of the regular sabers.

[@Debneyink]

I made lightsaber props on the prequels. We used a metal called durilium, and it kept on bending. But we kept on shooting with the actors fighting with bent rods. I remember pointing this out to a guy from ILM he said don't worry we paint in the glow afterwards. I said yes but youre going to have to paint out the bent rods as well, so it doubles the work loads on each shot. He looked kind of worried. We spray painted each of the the metal rods orange and green and then shrink wrappped plastic over them to stop flecks of paint firing off. The hero handles would be moulded with a large screw thread placed into the each cast which we would screw the duriluium rods onto.

[@AzuriteCoast]

[@casbyness]

Everyone alway, ALWAYS forgets about the clash effects. Even the Disney movies don't include them. Those bright yellow flash frames were an important component of the original trilogy, adding a visual impact to the clashes for the audience that was almost too quick to process. This is the sort of thing that gets lost to history and contributes to later effects not looking 'right' for those that saw earlier examples.

[@jasonblalock4429]

Heh, they skipped over my favorite low-tech lightsaber effect in the OT. When Obi-Wan faces Darth Vader and ignites his saber, there's no jump cut... because the reflective stick was already in place, and Alec Guiness was simply pointing the tip directly at camera so the length couldn't be seen. Then he rotated his wrist outward, and the camera's forced perspective made it look like the blade was extending.

[@thanatosstorm]

Gotta love using that practical effect of what technology you have in place.

[@RichO1701e]

And don't forget that you could see the power cable hidden up Obi-wan's Jedi cloak sleeve during his duel with Vader

[@mikedimples]

neat

[@mrmacross]

There was a jump cut. Alec Guinness at first was just holding the handle. Then they froze the frame and handed him a new reflective light saber prop, and then they did what you described. But you are right, it's such a great low-tech manuever to achieve a great effect. I remember seeing this in the 1984 TV special that Mark Hamill narrated.

From what I see on their site they don't really lean into the whole "fragile man" demographic the way most of those sorts of products do. Their products are 100% geared towards stereotypically manly stuff, but they don't mention that anywhere on their site - - very welcome IMO because all that stuff is cool as hell and there's no shame in liking any of it but if it were me I'd be turned off by marketing that was like "HEY MAN! ARE YOU TIRED OF FEELING LIKE A GIRL? THEN BUY OUR KNIFE-A-LIFE KNIFE-PER-MONTH BOX"

[@WeyounSix]

Rogue One was amazing for me tbh. I thought the scene where Vader opened his saber, and the red light illuminating him was the only light source... It was like the directors went "finally. we can use ambient light from sabers because our CGI is finally good enough.... lets go balls deep..."

[@jasonblalock4429]

Yeah, that's how I felt about the Rey vs Kylo Ren fight at the end of Ep 7. Not only were both sabers giving off illumination, but you could see the snow hitting the blades and sizzling. I loved how they could take such a well-worn effect and make it new again just by putting some modern twists on it.

[@GymQuirk]

Except that they did add ambient light (especially behind him) so you could clearly see his silhouette.

[@WeyounSix]

[@thewolfstu]

6:17 I just gotta say that, when it comes to things that are dark with a glow, it would be sick to see a "Blackhole" style effect where it's an inverted glow. Instead of pumping light out into the radius it instead absorbs the light, warping it around a true black core.

[@Nagranddan]

they did something kind of like that with the darksaber, but there was still some white texture inside the black blade. SWTOR does have black core lightsabers in the game, so that's probably the closest you can see for now.

[@thewolfstu]

@@Nagranddan ye

Came here to say this :)

[@adamplace1414]

Yep! Brown isn't a color of light, it's just a shade we've given a name to because it's so prevalent in our world. Just like you can make red light but not, say, maroon, or blue but not navy, same problem with brown. It's subtractive, not additive.

And this is why the Darksaber technology is so underutilized. In effect, you have to make it spit light out from the edges to make the black glow, representing a black hole.

Realistically, if you can both predict each others moves you wouldn't waste all your energy exchanging blows back and forth like that, though. Every fight would just be like the Rebels Obi-Wan versus Maul fight where it's mind games followed up by a singly decisive strike.

[@akitosorogoma2552]

@@hiimchrisj realistically, real people with small measures of armed combat experience can "predict" one another's "moves" to a degree and it never results in mind games and one decisive blow because real people arent psychic and even if they were, you would have to account for human error, outside conditions, and luck. anyone who has ever been in a mock swordfight for more than a minute can tell you that no swordfight is ever that cut and dry. So, in short, normal people can achieve similar levels of "focus" and they would never conclude in the way you describe. Therefore, you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Finally the Op said "I like to imagine". there was no need for you to come in with some sense of higher understanding of bladework where there clearly isnt any nor any need for it to begin with.

[@wasoha]

it's so rare that you see anyone bring up the fact that the core of the lightsaber is actually the color of the blade and the reason why you dont see it is because it's overexposed. if it was really just white then the glow would be white too. if you saw a "real" saber in person the core color would be more obvious than it appears in the movies. like when you see people take video of their practical blades on youtube and the core appears white but in person you can see a very obvious color.

[@dogboy0912]

Niko introduces an interesting concept that I've thought about before too, which is that we can imagine light conditions that are physically impossible to create in reality. Imagine for instance a grey LED light that casts grey light. It seems pretty unremarkable but it's impossible without some sin city esque color grading because it would just be dim white light in reality.

The easier way to do a camoflaged light saber, would be to make it so its actually a blade that camoflages with whateve is behind it. So you could essentially do it with just a pixelation filter like whats used to censor part of a video. Make that look like a digital camo pattern.

I have a question. In all of the Star Wars lore, has there ever been a Jedi or Sith lord that has created a lightsaber solely from force energy? Like if a Sith lord can shoot lightning out of they're hands, why not be able to focus it into an actual force energy blade or something? Could that be a thing? Should that be a thing?

[@itsasquid]

I believe that was partially the case in the old EU. There were force-imbued weapons, but they took a ton of concentration to do so.

[@sam8404]

@@itsasquid there were, but those were actual weapons like swords or spears that were imbued with force energy. So not exactly what Bigtex was talking about.

[@thanatosstorm]

Could it? Not really. If anything, the use of Force powers to manipulate lightning is considered a dark-sider technique, and also expends an enormous amount of physical willpower to achieve. Unless you're effectively immortal (which no one in Star Wars is), you couldn't create such a lightsaber. HOWEVER There are lightsabers in Legends that were designed to be activated with ONLY the Force. Unlike the grip panel used on other lightsabers, which included an effective kill switch to turn the saber off if one was disarmed or had it knocked out of one's hand, there are also Force-users who created an internal connection matrix that could only be activated if the made the connection through a tiny Force-push within the lightsaber mechanism as a whole.

[@Wackymushrooms]

*In a book there was a Lightsaber that wasn't actually like the ones we all know with technology it was just a kyber crystal strapped to a stick and the Jedi needed to use The Force to make it work, I think it's supposed to be the oldest Lightsaber in canon right now.*

[@mandarinduck]

Okay here's an actual, non-speculative answer. Yes, in the old EU, in a Darkhorse published comic series called "Dawn of the Jedi." It took place before even the Old Republic and before the Jedi when the Rakatan Infinite Empire controlled everything. There was a group called "Force Hounds" that were similar to Jedi except the were essentially slaves for the Rakatan. They used Forcesabers, which was just a handle that could channel dark side energy into a blade. The blades could be a variety of colors like traditional lightsabers, but because of it's nature, using one brought the user closer to the dark every time.

Skipped over a couple of history facts: Original Star Wars has full “sticks” with reflective material on set, which was enhanced with some matte work in post. Empire had shorter sticks coming out of the handles (actors probably got tired getting hit with long sticks). Yes, the light saber effect was roto-animated mattes… Jedi, I know, had only handles and no sticks at all, with roto-animation drawing the sabers in. These were white light saber outlines on animation cell that were bottom lit, layered with sheets of frosted plexiglass, and rephotographed on theanimation in color. A hot core pass and a wid glow pass was shot for each shot frame. VCE was awarded the saber shots, because Pete Kuran was able to get a green light saber to show up over a brightly exposed desert plate. P.s. The shot of the crossing light sabers in front of the Emperor is actually me with white painted broom sticks.
