Sometimes They Were Tall
When a writer and producer start creating a movie or scene, they don’t think about how it will be made. That comes later when they’ve already figured out what they want. Some props have to be very tall to create the right effect. During the “Helping Hands” scene in this photo below, there had to be a tall wall with seemingly thousands of hands. The creators ended up making more than 100 pairs of hands with latex.

Did They Know It Would Be so Iconic?
Everyone has heard of Star Wars, whether they’ve seen every movie or not. Though everyone knows the iconic opening credits (In a galaxy far, far away, etc.), did you ever wonder how they filmed them? The below photo is truly amazing! The words were just etched into some glass, and the camera/cameraman slowly pulled back to get the right feel and movement. Stars Wars fans everywhere will be impressed!
