What's the one thing every Star Wars fan wants to do (besides becoming best friends with George Lucas)? Put Lightsabers into every picture/video that they can. Fans have been trying to recreate the effect since they first hit the big screen, but for years, money was a huge factor in not being able to get that look. These days with technology being what it is, just about anyone with a computer and the will can get those great Star Wars effects.
With a new crop of Star Wars films on the horizon and in honor of our ongoing Star Wars month here at Cinelinx, today I wanted to throw all of you filmmakers and fans a gigantic bone. Scouring the Internet I've compiled for you the best Lightsaber effects tutorials around the web.

There's nothing like the end of the world to give someone a new lease of life. But that's just what happens in director Chad Peter's new indie comedy fantasy Apocalypse, CA.

Chad has assembled this crazy goodie bag of genre filmmaking ideas for his debut feature film, which was completed last month and hits DVD, iTunes and Netflix on December 13.
Apocalypse, CA has a cast including Nick Mathis (Grim Reaper), Erin Bodine, Anne McDaniels (Death on Demand), Alexander Cardinale, Elizabeth Sandy and Sarah Smick, plus an original score by Avi Ghosh.
An official synopsis, poster and images are included here.

Okay, answer this one…what has giant asteroid on a collision course with Earth, a 300-foot tall woman, mind-bending drugs an all-out gun battle? If you said Apocalypse, CA, the upcoming film with a December 13 DVD release date, then you were absolutely right! (and probably a bit psychic…how could you know that?)
From the mind of writer/director/cinematographer Chad Peter, Apocalypse, CA stars Nick Mathis, Erin Bodine, Anne McDaniels, Alexander Cardinale, Elizabeth Sandy, Sarah Smick, Ryan Jordan with a score penned by Avi Ghosh. We've got the trailer for you below. Check it out and you'll see what I mean when I say unique. This film looks like it has real potential to be something interesting and different.

Synopsis:
Wry, cynical and full of off-beat humor, Apocalypse, CA is the story of John Parsons and his
ill-fated friends as they prepare for certain death at the hands of a massive asteroid, sex-
inducing drugs, a three-hundred foot giant, and a horde of other unfortunate problems.
Apocalypse, CA is an indie cult film of catastrophic proportions, featuring outstanding visual
effects from artists Ryan Wieber (Ryan vs. Dorkman) and Teague Chrystie (The Pacific) in this
feature film directorial debut by Chad Peter (behind the popular Internet short films, Sex, Drugs
& Natalie Portman & Roleplayed).
Mysterious radio personality and apparent part-time genie, ‘Sassy Boots’ (Elizabeth Sandy)
takes it upon herself to grant John Parsons (Nick Mathis) a few wishes five days before the
world is to be destroyed by an asteroid. Only problem is John’s wishes aren’t exactly calculated,
or even planned – the end result of which is a situation far worse than before.
