Nice little interview with the production designer on TFA.

From the article;

They also reverse-engineered the VFX to accommodate, for example, 2D forced perspective backings rather than relying on CG.....You can glimpse this in a corridor shot in the Comic-Con making-of reel

I caught it immediately and was really happy to see it.  It's that attention to continuity that will make these a welcome addition to the franchise.  Story and character first, but there is most certainly something to be said for visual continuity as well.
