Star Wars

Personally, Star Wars are not my favorite movies, or my type of movies that I usually watch. But I can recognize the art that goes into the movies from the make-up to the set design and to the graphics. The use of color and gestures are just amazing and so well thought out. I love the text in the shape of Darthvator using a graphic element. The makeup and costumes alone in these deleted scenes are just amazing.

"Star Wars is an American epic space opera franchise centered on a film series created by George Lucas. The film series, consisting of two trilogies, has spawned an extensive media franchise called the Expanded Universe including books, television series, computer and video games, and comic booksThe first film in the series was originally released on May 25, 1977, under the title Star Wars, by 20th Century Fox, and became a worldwide pop culturephenomenon, followed by two sequels, released at three-year intervals. Sixteen years after the release of the trilogy's final film, the first in a new pre-queltrilogy of films was released. The three prequel films were also released at three-year intervals, with the final film of the trilogy released on May 19, 2005. In October 2012, The Walt Disney Company acquired Lucas film for $4.05 billion and announced that it would produce three new films, with the first film,Star Wars Episode VII, planned for release in 2015."


The computer graphics for the first Star Wars film was created by Larry Cuba in the 1970s at the Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL) (at the time known as the Circle Graphics Habitat) at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
