Glad to see your maturity shows in your use of racial slurs. I'll see to it that your comment is deleted.

Thank you. No offense to Tim and Eddie but neither of them were into it.

I did the 3D work in Truespace, the video editing in Premeire, and the particle effects in Combustion

I'm sorry, but I can't lower the filesize just for one person. The more I compress the movie, the crappier it will look and I felt this setting was a good median between size and quality (and still fits under the old 5 meg guidelines). The only problem with a large size is that it takes longer for your computer to download it. That's it. I don't see how a 5 meg file "hits your machine hard". It doesn't make your computer run slower. If you're impatient, go find something to do while you wait for it to download like browse another website that doesn't take up much bandwidth.

Well, they were real swords we used (unsharpened) but they were heavy and we still had to be careful because as they were clashed over time, little nicks and dents would appear in the sword that WERE sharp. About a year later, another classmate of mine was doing a swordfight movie and actually sliced his hand open well enough to get stitches.
