Ever since
Star Wars debuted in 1977, the franchise has pushed the limits of visual effects. Through the decades,
Star Wars has remained at the forefront of visual technology, immersing us in stunning cinematic moments that are easy to take for granted these days. While we've grown accustomed to experiencing these grand, epic moments on the big screen, we forget how much work actually goes into bringing them to life.
Thankfully, we have a behind-the-scenes highlight reel from Industrial Light and Magic to remind us of how much work actually goes into creating the magic of
Star Wars. The clip below offers us a glimpse into the making of
The Last Jedi's bombing run from the beginning of the film.
Take a look behind the magic at the Oscar nominated Visual Effects of Star Wars: The Last Jedi. In this clip we see what kind of damage a single rebel can inflict on the empire.
As you can see, creating a film like
Star Wars is no easy task. While the bombing run was certainly visually impressive,
The Last Jedi had plenty more moments worth exploring the creation of. We'll get even more behind-the-scenes looks at the making of
The Last Jedi when it releases on Digital HD, Blu-ray, and DVD next month.
