The 4 Seasons Of Star Wars (part 2)

Continued........
Yoda practises his lightsabre skills and communes with The Force by candle and star light on a far distant planet in the Dagobah System.

They were able to use forced perspective and all sorts of camera trickery to make sure that Yoda appeared bigger than the candles in his cave but this early picture is from a time when Industrial Light and Magic was just getting the hang of CGI.

Han Solo battles with mysterious flying creatures attacking the Millennium Falcon. And WHAT the Art Department were thinking when they created the attacking creatures and supposedly marshy and dank landing area, I don’t know. Apparently, according to behind the scenes gossip, quite a few people got the sack when this series of shot was shown to the producers and directors. The Big Wigs were in from the studio at the time talking about budget over runs and completion dead lines. It took a lot of fast talking to convince them not to cancel the entire movie there and then.

So there you go The 4 Seasons Of Star Wars.

Who's perhaps a closet crafter? Go on admit it!
You crafter you!

As a knitter who has a sensible craft that involves long pointy sticks I mock and laugh!

But excellent work all round!
