Richard Edlund was one of the many excellent guests past and present celebrating the work of the original Star Wars back in June 2019, as part of the Galactic Innovations talk at the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences in California. This was an event linked to Lucasfilm's special donation of its first Dysktraflex camera to the Academy.
