Skywalking Through Neverland

Want to hear rare Star Wars Original Trilogy behind-the-scenes stories from people who were there at Lucasfilm? Over the past weekend we attended LOSCON 44 (LA’s longest-running sci-fi convention) and were able to record Craig Miller’s ‘Making Star Wars’ panel. Craig was the Lucasfilm Head of Fan Relations & Publicity, and he brought together Star Wars veterans Miki Herman (Assistant to George Lucas / Executive Producer), Chris Casady (Miniature effects unit), Doug Barnett (Miniature effects unit) and Mark Marshall (Production) to share their amazing stories. To see pictures and video from the entire LOSCON weekend, head over to Fantha Tracks . That’s it for this week as we prepare for the crazy STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI media blitz coming fast and furious starting December 2nd. We will be attending several Press Events and bringing our trusty audio and video recorders with us, so we can share everything with you. Stay tuned, Skywalkers!
