You know what this is inspiring. You had to have been happy just making this because I first played this game when my junior year teacher kind of ended up recommending it. Long story but I dropped it after a bit but then picked it up soon later during the pandemic and finished it last April in 2020. What a game and what a story. I forgot what Malak and Revan exactly said to each other in their final encounter but when the music played at the end I instantly remembered how Malak’s regret made me feel his wish to have returned to the light possibly. This was quite a project I bet and an amazing experience.
It was a very fun project to work on, I’m glad you liked it! Kotor is such a great story. I also played the game a couple of times but never finished it. I think I ended up beating it in 2018 or 2019. As for Malak, I think a lot of people overlook his dialogue about a possible redemption. It would be cool if we could get an alternate universe comic or something that shows how Malak would’ve handled working with the Jedi if he was in Revan’s shoes.
This was great!! I especially loved the saber throw and the smooth duel wielding animations, you did an amazing job with this film! Can't wait for your next vid.
KotOR: Revan: I have failed you, Malak. I have failed you. Malak: I should have known the Jedi would spare you! Revan: You spared Bastila. That is proof that the Sith are weak as much as they are evil! Malak: From my point of view, the Jedi are evil! Revan: Well then you are lost! Malak: This is the end for you, my master. Revan: (jumps) It's over Malak! I have the high ground! Malak: You underestimate my power! Revan: Don't try it. Revenge of the Sith: Obi-Wan: I have failed you, Anakin. I have failed you. Anakin: I should have know the Jedi were plotting to take over! Obi-Wan: Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is evil! Anakin: From my point of view, the Jedi are evil! Obi-Wan: Well, then you are lost! Anakin: This is the end for you, my master. Obi-Wan: (Jumps) It's over, Anakin! I have the high ground! Anakin: You underestimate my power! Obi-Wan: Don't try it. George Lucas: That's like poetry, so that they rhyme.
Great video! Only 2 things. Revan only had duel sabers after he lost his memory of everything and the colors were red and purple, and Malak was Revan’s apprentice not Revan Malak’s apprentice but it’s nothing. Keep up this great work.
Thank you, I appreciate it! As for the video, I decided to make some creative changes just for fun. Also I don’t recall mentioning that Revan was Malak’s apprentice unless I made a mistake and didn’t realize.
@@andrews05 Yeah man, you're good. Marco LoPorcaro thought that Malak's dialogue on how he'd like to turn Revan as he did Bastila was Malak saying he was Revan's master. As for the lightsabers, I like the changes as well as your own reinterpretation on the Revan redeemed armor. I like the more Mandalorian-Malgus style it has. I only wish that you would've updated Malak as well. Great job!
@@chasehervey2384 Oh I see, I can understand the confusion there. For the models, I wish I could’ve updated Malak but as of now, I haven’t learned 3D modeling so I had to rely on what the steam workshop had. But thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it!
@@andrews05 No problem man. Blender is a great, free 3D program that can do a multitude of things if you ever decide to take it up. Look forward to your next project!
This was great work! I hear they are actually working on a remastered version of KoTOR. If they are I can't wait to play it and see the new animations and scenery.
Nice sfm. Just like any other project anyone does, it obviously could be better. I still like it because I like seeing people getting into new things and for what looks to be a beginner's work into Sourcefilmaker, rather than The Winglet making TF2 sfms, this is a nice project and I can't wait to see how well your channel and art evolves going forward. You sir have earned my subscribe and made my day better with your creation. Thanks very much and sorry for the long af comment.
No worries, I enjoy reading long comments! Glad you liked it. This video was sort of a demo/practice for future videos that have hand to hand combat. Once episode 2 of Sev the Uprising comes out, there will be significant improvements.
Not that its not good and you probably already know this but maybe animate your key frames first in the battle animations ,what I mean is your key poses, then fill in all the in between frames to smooth it out. Anyway I still loved it, you put in a lot of work and it showed.
Yeah, this was my first time making a lightsaber duel so I wasn't entirely sure how to do the movement. But I've learned a fair amount since then. I appreciate the tips nonetheless!
How long did it take you to make it and how much experience do you have with animations? I am looking to start my own project so I would like to know how long a process it is.
The video itself took my about 3 months to make but for this project, I wasn’t working none stop. As of making Revan vs Malak, I had about a year of experience animating. Since this was my first lightsaber duel, it was a learning process on its own so that definitely made it take longer. For example, this 6 minute video took me almost as long to make as my first animation that was 12 minutes just because of the saber dueling. Most recommend to make short 30 sec-1 min videos for your first project but I just didn’t know better at the time. Animating absolutely takes longer when you’re first getting started so making a short video will satisfy your urge to complete an animation while learning the software.
The animations could have been improved a bit (like adding more movement to the arms in dialogues, and making hits and swings more smooth), but the result is still pretty good😁👍
Only problem is, You ruined Revan by making him the same height as Malak. One of the awesome things about Revan is he was not only mysterious, but he was short and yet still stronger than Malak! It's a psychological thing! But looks pretty neat setup!
Yeah I wasn’t able to make Revan shorter with the software I was using. It would just make Revans whole body scale down so he’d be miniature. But that is a good point!
@@andrews05 it's cool. The fact that you created this just shows that you truly admire K.O.T.O.R and a beautiful story that is the experience itself good job
@@brianhong5070 Thank you man. Maybe one day I’ll remake Revan vs Malak. I deleted the save file cause I wasn’t planning on doing anything with it in the future. But a remake would make it an even greater improvement.
Im sorry i cant take the fight seriously, i know they're supposed to be on the star forge but i *know* that room is peragus and i cant get it out of my head xD
This Revan is a beast, He beat Malak without destroying the Jedi Corpses first!
Haha exactly, god mode Revan!
Didn't even know you could do that until my third playthrough 😭
I absolutely love the reimagined Jedi Revan armor. Really great job on the animation too. Well done
Yeah the Jedi Revan armor is really cool. Appreciate the support!

Thank you! Excellent job! Keep kotor alive buy making more of these movies!
I may work on more KOTOR projects later down the line!
Excellent animation. I like how you represented malak's lightsaber combat form.
What I love about this is that it appears Revan tried to hold back but eventually realize he must do what is necessary and kill his brother.
Great video! Only 2 things. Revan only had duel sabers after he lost his memory of everything and the colors were red and purple, and Malak was Revan’s apprentice not Revan Malak’s apprentice but it’s nothing. Keep up this great work.

Revan had only one blue lightsaber in kotor and the mask was hidden by Bastilla.

Thanks man, glad you liked it! I heard about that rumor, fingers crossed its true. We've only waited 16 years for a new/remastered KoTOR lol.
@@andrews05 No problem. Fingers crossed.
@@andrews05 maybe they’ll actually give revan more lines
This was quality! 🙌 nice work man
Thanks man, much appreciated!
Thanks UA-cam for recommending this masterpiece
Darth malak always gets slept on /overshadowed by other sith characters
Who is ready for the Remade of Knights of Old Republic?? This video is so inspiring for the Remade.
Awesome work dude! That was lit 🔥🔥🔥
amazing work
Thank you!

this is my teammate!
This video is great...but I cant get over Revan having a voice. But seriously, great work.
Thank you! It can be a little strange attaching a voice to Revan for sure.
Nice work!
Wow even the armour and mask and REVAN has a voice
why did this take place on peragus?
Why does the background look like peragus from Kotor 2? Or was it meant to look like that
On Peragus || ?Excellent work
Thank you! There wasn’t a star forge map available so I had to use Peragus lol.
why is malak on peragus?
Awesome sauce.
Why are they on peragus
Is it just me or is Revan also to everyone else the best or one of the best characters in Star Wars
Yeah a lot of kotor fans would argue that Revan is one of the best characters for sure
In kotor 1 is malak's eye color brown? I can't tell what color his eyes are.
Why does he have a blue saber smh
It's a shame Malak wasn't given a second chance but Revan was :|
Malak is a great villain

Peragus ptsd
Why don't you underscore this duel with Battle of the Heroes? Is this because KotOR came out before Revenge of the Sith?
Yeah I wanted to stick to more Old Republic Era music but Battle of the Heroes would've been a good fit!
@@andrews05 I know, but the KotOR Movie Saga uses it.
Good video but maybe put it on the star forge next time and not peragus
Subscribing and liking
Lmao how their fighting they look like action figures.
Who knows, maybe they're action figures and I'm just using a green screen :)
@@andrews05 big brain logic right here. 😂😂😂😂
epic
better than new movies of sw

Paragus mining station?
yeah I didn't have a starforge map
@@andrews05 it's cool. The fact that you created this just shows that you truly admire K.O.T.O.R and a beautiful story that is the experience itself good job
@@marckkilpatrick9083 Thank you! KOTOR is such a good story. Glad you enjoyed the video.
@@andrews05 it was marvelous thanks again
My favorites are Galen Merik aka Starkiller and Alan whatever his last name is aka Revan. Or is it Alex? Nvm
Not bad combat can be better but good overall
Thank you! This was my first time animating a proper lightsaber duel. I learned a lot from it so future videos will definitely have better combat.
@@andrews05 still an awesome lightsaber duel. I suggest remastering it with your current skills and trying to make it better. Love your work m8.
