Not Really Funny Star Wars Cartoon

Notice how Lucas uses a LOT of editing Wipes? Well here is a not so funny thing about it, but its true, LinK

I think it's great. Subtle, effective, old-school. I'm a TD at CNN Headline News, and we use a lot of fancy transitions, but really what people just want to see is a simple dissolve or wipe to get to the next video as soon as possible. But the transitions we use are neato, (not a technical term) so we keep them.

Still, I keep waiting for Lucas to bust out with the video toaster effects I used to love in college, and use the wipe that has a woman doing cartwheels or a baseball player swinging. We could never use those because they were cheesy and stupid, but fun for off-the-record videos.

He'll probably do it for the TV show. But, you're right the style of the movies wont be the same without the wipes. Plus, GL seems to have fun with it as well.
