THE 'PHANTOM' AT TWENTY: INSIDE THE POD RACE HANGAR


Combining model work with live action and CGI, this establishing shot of the Mos Espa pod race hangar, with Qui-Gon and Jar Jar Binks meeting Watto prior to the Boonta Eve event, was an impressive visual moment, one of many diverse challenges for the huge effects bonanza that was EPISODE I.

Doug Chiang and the ILM team ready the set for filming.

Lighting and atmosphere are key to making the model shots look effective.
