STAR WARS BEHIND THE SCENES - THE MAKING OF A NEW HOPE
The making of Star Wars A New Hope is stuff of legend. Today, blockbuster movies are a dime-a-dozen and the magic of how they’re actually created has all but disappeared. But in 1977, George Lucas and his team at ILM were still magicians, crafting never-before-seen imagery that changed the industry forever. In this short making of Star Wars documentary, we’ll explain how they evolved practical effects, compositing techniques, and sound design.
STAR WARS MOVIES SPECIAL EFFECTS
Compared to the scope and vision of George Lucas’ galaxy far, far away, Star Wars was a low-budget production. One of the ways they were able to pull this off was to use practical effects. This ranged from making Luke’s landspeeder to be a functional vehicle but appeared to float above the ground, to the extensive use of matte paintings that could extend the sets and add extras.
STAR WARS VISUAL EFFECTS
What the crew couldn’t accomplish on set, the visual effects team handled. For example, some of the most dazzling sequences in the film are the space battles. But up until that time, the compositing techniques for photographing a ship in space was very limited. To capture the WWII dogfight footage Lucas shared as inspiration, the ships needed to have more dynamic mobility. The solution was something called the Dykstraflex, a motion-control camera that could be programmed precisely to execute the same movements multiple times. This allowed them to capture as many elements as they needed while giving the ships the desired movement and energy in the frame.
STAR WARS SFX
The final element in creating a fantastical yet believable world was the sound design. To be fair, the concept of a sound designer didn’t even exist yet. Ben Burtt, responsible for the sound effects coined the term for himself, essentially creating a new filmmaking role in the process. Here, too, revolutionary changes were being made to create the most iconic sounds like R2-D2’s bleeps and bloops, Darth Vader’s ominous breathing, and, of course, the hum of the lightsabers. To do this, Burtt mixed the sounds of a humming projector with a TV set - the swinging sabers were created by playing this sound through a speaker and waving a microphone in front of it.
Without all these innovations, there’s a good chance Star Wars would’ve simply gone unnoticed. Instead, it raised the bar for filmmaking in Hollywood with low-budget techniques to create an unforgettable cultural experience.

VistaVision isn’t a film stock, but a wide-screen format camera that had been more or less forgotten. While it is true that film grain was an important factor, the registration of this format (also the base for IMAX later) moving laterally (rather than vertically) through the shutter, and the registration system, made for a much more stable frame, avoiding the sort of registration error that could undermine any mattes or rotoscoping. There were ma,y optical probs that had to be overcome for this to work, but you get the gist.

Star Wars was a perfect storm of just the right kinds of technologies and people coming together at just the right time. For sound, having Ben Burtt for the sound effects and the legendary John Williams doing the score was a genius move. Ben's innovative sources for sound effects set Star Wars apart from everything that had come before. And John's musical choices for Star Wars could have been very different. In fact, at the beginning John asked George if he wanted a typical "spacey" type music that pretty much every other sci-fi movie had had up to then, or a more serious approach. Luckily George chose the latter and John knocked it out of the park. And of course having John Dykstra and pretty much everyone at ILM at the time added to the power of the movie. For more detail on this, I highly recommend the Disney+ series, "Light and Magic" about ILM, its formation and innovations over the years. You'll see footage you've never seen before, and that's saying a lot!

Actually George Lucas used classical music records as temp-tracks for Star Wars and he wanted it to use it as the soundtrack just like Stanley Kubrick did with 2001: A Space Oddysey, then Steven Spielberg (one of the few that had faith in the project though he wasn't involved, even said that the movie was going to look better with special effects, indeed he was right) recommened George Lucas to work with John Williams who already earned an Oscar for his score in Jaws, you could still hear the musical influences on Williams' score like The Planets by Gustav Holst or The Rite o Spring by Igor Stravisnky.

George Lucas is the inspired mastermind and entrepreneur from Modesto to this Galaxy Far Away. And it was long time ago, when I was 9 years old and daddy took me to watch the beginning of this space saga...

Should have included the amazing music of John Williams. His music was the thing that really punched up the emotion.

My favourite shots are both the Millennium Falcon being drawn into the Death Star (the sense of dread and doom the music inspires) and it leaving, as the engines whir up and the music accelerates to give that sense of the start of the escape.

It is interesting to note that the Star Wars animators developed a new software in making this film, called Photoshop 1.0. That's right,-- the birth of Photoshop thanks to George Lucas!

Great video. Although showcasing it very well, it doesn’t actually mention one of the key elements of the film’s success: the sound track. John Williams is the man!

I grew up in San Francisco & at about 12 yrs old my Mom Moved us to San Rafael in Marin County…it Wasn’t Long til I found out that ILM was Literally about 1 mile away down the street 😮…I remember how I found out…I,was cruising around Late at Night once,& saw a Semi Flatbed with a Space Ship on it…I was Amazed & found out after Asking around that It was in a Movie & the Warehouse down the Street is where Filming was happening,so the Next day I went down the Street & Found ILM,it was a Big Box Building,& I didn’t get to see much ,so Later on as I was growing up,I remember Riding my Dirtbike in a Big Field a short Distance from ILM,Then one day as I was Riding,I Noticed a Big Flame in the Distance,I had to Stop & Wait ,hoping I would See it Again…Sure enough There it Was Again…..so I Rode over there,& to my Surprise,I saw this Forklift with a man up,on the Extended Boom in a Cage with a Tank & a Nozzle,he was Blowing Fire to Emulate a Fire Breathing Thing…Not a Dragon,& there was a Small Section of Parking lot that was Made Up to Look like a Forest !…it was So Cool !…I remember going back Every Day for a Week & it was Still Set Up like that…I Eventually got to see the Inside of ILM but Only a 5 second Glimpse because it was Private,I eventually saw a Few more Short Filmings there,George Moved ILM to the Presidio in San Francisco later on

But the floating landcruiser...the mirror under it looks so seamless! Usually in old movies you can spot how they did it but this one looks too good.
