The floating lightsaber handle was done in two ways. For the wide, far away shot of the handle floating between us in our "force tug-o-war", the handle was an image of the handle (photographed on set) that I animated to wiggle around. The closer shots of the handle were achieved by performing the shot with a puppeteer moving the handle via a rod screwed onto the end of the handle facing away from the camera.
Then an empty background plate of the shot was photographed. In post production, the puppeteer and the rod were masked off in After Effects and replaced by the empty background footage. More.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
