It’s hard not to enjoy this. Artist Eric Power retells the basic story of the Star Wars trilogy, using cut-paper animation. The film runs a very quick 2:40, and Jeremy Messersmith’s ‘Tatooine’ provides the soundtrack. (You can download the song here for whatever price you want.)

It’s animated, it just hit the web, and he went full force in marketing it. Does it make it really good ? I don’t think it does. I’t isn’t really a wow kind of video. I like this animated video better http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOl280q4z9k
Someone should blog this persons video, it’s cool
I am sorry but I don’t like it. The music is looped / garage band software. In my opinion it is cheap looking and juvenile. Why is he trying to skate off the coat tails of star wars anyways? My advice to him: “Get a real band, dump the garage band software and hire a professional animator, use your own ideas not star wars fame, and get your voice – which is good out there with those concepts. Then, you’ll see results, and feel proud of your accomplishments.”
