I was surprised so I decided to look around some more and stumbled upon these:
thanks for the link Tobar. hadn't seen those pics. They'll come in very handy
doubleofive said:I did a mock up of what the shot of Veer's Walker being in the only one left might look like:
Used the shot of the tripped walker just before it gets blown up, the last frame of Luke's exploded walker, and Vaderios' matte at about the angle that it should be.
Vaderios has pointed out the turret facing the wrong way before and ImperialFighter has pointed out that the sun is behind the rebels in most of the other shots. I don't think anyone has pointed out that there is a guy on a turret on frame right facing AWAY from the walker, confirming the oddity of this shot. Were the Rebels supposed to charge the walkers at some point? Beats me.
Nice mock-up 005
yeh that is a strange shot indeed. it does seem as if the rebels are supposed to be running towards the battle instead of away. it may also explain the shot before the speeders blow up the fallen AT-AT where we see 2 rebels running towards the walker as the speeders fly overhead
but that shot can also settle a long running argument about the lightsabers not producing shadows. if you look at the explosion you can see just how bright it is yet it creates a shadow. this is because it has mass and this is the same with the lightsabres. if the sabers didn't have any form of mass they would be useless as the blade could pass straight through objects. and originally they were supposed to be heavy weapons. so now, as you see, a lightsabre would indeed produce a shadow.
