When
making the new scenes for the Special Edition movies, Jeremy Bullock
who used to play Boba Fett was replaced by Mark Austin. A blue
screen, like the one we see in this picture, was used to add this new Boba
Fett to shots he was originally not in.
For
the Special Edition make-over of ROTJ, the woman who
originally played the dancer Oola, was looked up to do
some additional scenes. The British dancer is still in
great shape and could therefor step in without problems
- a member of Lucas' team explains. (But would Lucas
himself have been replaced with a body double if he'd had
a visible part in the movies? ;-) )
This
alien playing a harmonica-like instrument was created, for the new
song-number in ROTJ, lovingly entitled "Jedi Rocks" by ILM workers.
Thanks
to bluescreen footage and
the work of the computer gurus at ILM,
more stormtroopers and people could be
added to the streets of Mos Eisley.
Also added to the Mos Eisley
scene was an elaborate shot of a stagering Ronto.
For
the new panorama of Obi-Wan's house, this model of a typical
Tatooine-style home was made.

that for some shots at the podrace in Phantom Menace - thousands of
colored Q-Tips were used to pose as the audience? Enough Q-Tips to
last a normal person dozens of lifetimes.
