User blog:Darkgrafix/Star Wars fan film-The Blood Crystal

"The Blood Crystal" is a pure, exciting Star Wars fan film. A story of one Jedi and one Sith and the adventure they take searching for the Blood Kyber Crystal, rumored to have unimaginable powers, that will change their lives forever. Being a die hard fan, the idea came to me while I was recovering from stage 4 jaw cancer in the hospital and was going through chemo and radiation therapy. To get me through it, I wrote down every idea that came into my head for this story. Dream big.


 * I am Dark Hoffman, a professional Visual Effects artist, matte painter and concept artist in the film and commercial industry. In my 30+ years experience I have helped create miniatures, props, sets, physical effects, digital visual effects and graphic art.
 * This campaign is to raise money to create a professional one of a kind short fan film set in the Star Wars universe. To write and to direct a film for no profit or recompense, such as this, is a dream come true since seeing the film in 1977. We have a fantastic professional crew standing by including actors, crew, camera operators, set builders, make up, prop makers and visual effects.
 * Every dollar that is donated will be right up there on the screen. We need your support to pay and feed these people and for the equipment and location to shoot with and on.
 * We will be creating some old school visual effects to get that feel of the original Star Wars with miniatures, matte paintings and on set practical effects. We have a locked script, storyboards, location, concept art, costume designs and dedicated fans and artists ready to go!
