Anakin Skywalker | VADER

"The boy you trained, gone he is."

Incredibly proud to present my new Darth Vader tribute. Love the character, his story in the Star Wars universe, and most importantly Hayden Christensen. Super happy to see all the support he's actively receiving after his re-appearance in the Kenobi and Ahsoka series, well deserved and a long time coming. I mentioned this in my previous tribute and I still stand by these words - Vader is the reason I love Star Wars so much. Wanted to make a proper love letter to him for a while as I'm not satisfied with my first tribute and now, with all the skills and experience I have gathered over the last few years and with the newly released Ahsoka series, I felt like it was the perfect opportunity to do that. Used only live-action footage. Goes without saying that this video took a LOT of effort, but I enjoyed the process. Hope you all enjoy the result as such.

Headphones are highly recommended!
