Finished Widevision Scene 3
Picture:
Synopsis:
This scene shows Darth Vader's shuttle landing in the interior landing bay of a Star Destroyer. Several storm troopers can be seen walking around in the bay. This scene did not appear in the trilogy.
Film Elements:
1. Starfield
2. Large scale interior/exterior Star Destroyer landing bay model
3. Imperial shuttle model
4. Imperial shuttle reflection on bay floor
5. Storm troopers
Special Notes:
The Imperial shuttle model is your typical model that you can buy at any hobby store. The Storm Troopers are also store bought action figures. The storm trooper action figures, as well as the shuttle model, were photographed on top of a piece of highly reflective photographic plastic so that their reflections could also be captured in the resulting photograph. The shuttle, action figures and their reflections were then scaled and composited into the resulting scene. The shuttle and action figures were photographed on the balcony of my apartment. See picture below.
