Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov has lamely asserted that this set of actions “should absolutely not concern anyone. Readiness checks are drills, but they appear very much like preparations for hostilities. On April 6, the Russian defense minister announced the military was conducting readiness checks. Over the past week, reports have emerged, often accompanied by video, of Russian heavy artillery moving across the Kerch Strait bridge into Crimea and of other Russian units, including armor and surface-to-air missiles, moving toward the Ukrainian border opposite Donbas. The Trilateral Contact Group composed of representatives of Ukraine, Russia and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe also has little to show for its meetings. The negotiating effort led by the Germans and French has made no progress of late. Unfortunately, the more recent diplomatic news is grim. Until the situation began to deteriorate at the end of last year, exchanges of fire across the line of contact between Russian and Russian proxy forces and the Ukrainian military fell sharply. Again, if you want your saber to MOVE over time with your actor's blade, then you will need to set KEYFRAMES over the course of the video clip during the initial roto-scoping process.The tensions have arisen despite a rare diplomatic achievement in the simmering conflict between Russia and Ukraine: a ceasefire in the eastern Donbas region that held - for a while anyway.You should now have a glowing, colored light saber that looks quite authentic :).Check the "Preserve Luminosity" check-box.100% and 50%, respectively, can be changed (and probably should be) depending on how you want your sabers to look but are good starting points.Select the "composition 2" layer and adjust it's color balance, set the midtone (whatever color you want your light saber to be) to 100% and highlight to 50%.Your white glowing saber polygon should now show up over your saber prop.Within composition 1, select the "composition 2" layer and set it's blending mode to "Screen", go to: Layer -> Blending Mode -> Screen.Drag composition 2 into composition 1 and place the composiiton 2 object just ABOVE the video clip in composition 1, in other words, now you have a layer in composition 1 that is called "composition 2".Now, hide the video layer in composition 2 by clicking on the "eye" button.Create a new BLACK layer (same size as composition 2) and place it UNDERNEATH the video clip in composition 2.
