Chicago Force in da hiz-ouse

...as seen by Matthew "Hazmatt" Callison

Several members of Chicago Force gathered at the "Big Wig" club on Division Street last Saturday to participate in the filiming of a Star Wars Fan Film.

The film tells the story of two sisters from a Force-sensitive family. Most of the family is quite evil (Hazmatt: Excellent...), but one sister has broken away and become a goody-goody Jedi. The evil sister was sent to track her down.

The evil sister catches up with her wayward sibling on Sol III, although the local population calls it "Earth". It is an insignificant temperate planet in the Alpha Quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy. There is a showdown in a nightclub, and only one sister is leaving this planet alive...

Here Hazmatt demonstrates the dangers of photographing back-lit objects	Film-making, like the military, is a lot of "hurry up and wait"	If you don't use a flash, you get blurry pictures
More blurriness / Club interior	Matt explaining the subtle nuances of the "Angel" and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" TV series	Cast and Crew
Jedi Chick and club patrons	Sith Babe talks to the director	Setting up for a bar scene
Jimmy the Saxman shows up with his beautiful side-kick, Tera	Lightsaber practice on the sidewalk. This caused quite a commotion with passing traffic	Sith Babe puts her power into a deadly strike
The kid on the far left stood there the entire time, but never came to ask what was going on	I swear the first words out of their mouths were, "The hot yellow face in the sky, it burns us, my precious!"	The group decides to grab some burgers to soak up all the alcohol they just poured into their stomachs
To think this all started because one of them borrowed a blouse without asking...	Jedi Chick. Too bad all Jedi don't look this good	Sith Babe. If this is what bad looks like, I don't want to be good.

Wendy's to the rescue!	Don't we, like, have to leave?
On the way to our next film, we noticed that someone had left something that looked like a plastic toybox just sitting on the sidewalk	Yep, that sure looks like a toybox. Why would someone just leave it sitting there? Weird...
