Yesterday, ILM released a four minute and some seconds video demonstrating some of their visual effects magic. The video does absolutely nothing to demystify the process of building space ships, aliens, and strange worlds–quite the contrary. Nonetheless, it is fascinating, almost mesmerizing, to watch the Millennium Falcon be grow from framework to beat-up ship as rapidly falling pieces come together. Likewize, Moz goes from outline to something purple, to the wonderful eccentric character we all love and hope survived.
Enjoy!
