Obi-Wan Kenobi
Summary
The Acolytehas smartly stave off a major lightsaber problem meet by theObi - Wan KenobiDisney+ telecasting show . Modern Disney lightsabers are basically glow - stick , an melioration on the prequel engineering because they father real lightness - making for much cooler cinematography . Unfortunately , Obi - Wan Kenobirevealed the problem with bluish lightsabers ; when recorded using digital cameras , it can lead in something call " chroma jog . " The colors do n’t quite pop , andObi - Wan Kenobiwas heavily criticized as a result .
The Acolytefeatures many differentlightsaber colors , and Screen Rant had an opportunity to speak to Chris Teague , the show ’s Emmy - come through lead cinematographer . He explained that testing did indeed identify this issue , and explained how the crew worked hard to ensure it was n’t a trouble . This was peculiarly the lawsuit with nighttime scene .
" I mean , you know , in our , in our examination with the sabres , we clear that the spirit that we were developing for the camera had some challenges , particularly in the dispirited areas where a very saturated Amytal would sort of skew in a really unusual way . And sowe needed to kind of alter the look to protect for that blue and check that it really came through as accurately as potential . So there was that element to it .
And then for the night work with all these lightsabers , it is all about finding this balance , where you create a naturalistic story of twinkle in the set that feel dark enough to trust that it ’s night . But knowing that we ’re not , we ’re not the variety of show that we ’re trying to have everybody return off and move into full shadow , we still want to see the blank space , but we still want to sell the fact that it ’s Nox . And actually , the lightsabers really avail with that , because they create this bright highlight and the legerdemain of the eye that always come about . And it ’s one of the greatest ways to sell Nox on television camera is that if you have a light rootage , you know , it ’s some for some understanding , it just makes the rest of the Earth feel darker fundamentally , because you have something bright on camera . And so the lightsaber has really avail us with that . "
It ’s easy to drop , but there ’s a subtle alteration in The Acolyte ’s lightsabers that may have monumental implications for a Jedi ’s rising through the ranks .
Lucasfilm’s Lightsaber Technology Continues To Improve
Set during the tail - end of theHigh Republic Era , a hundred before the Skywalker saga , The Acolytefeatures more lightsaber colors and designs than anything since the metre of Lucas . This means it was a unequalled test for Disney ’s squad , but so far it seems to be one that has been passed with flying colors . The combination of still - evolving lightsaber engineering and measured digital examination for light appears to have fixed the trouble fromObi - Wan Kenobi .
The interesting question , though , is whether this will still be the case in the next episode . Theend ofThe Acolyteepisode 4saw the sun determine on the Outer Rim planet of Khofar , with a Sith emerge from the timber canopy . dawdler have show innumerable action tantrum follow on from this , all put in the Nox . That means the lightsaber engineering science is about to be put to the test ; the dark scenes were the truly elusive single inObi - Wan Kenobi .
Meanwhile , Lucasfilm has promised more wrench and turns in lightsaber technology . The Acolytewill feature the first ever live - action lightsaber lash , while showrunner Leslye Headland has also teased another lightsaber scene that breaks all the convention somehow . It will be shudder to seeStar Wars ' real - domain lightsaber engineering carry on to evolve .
