PT Prequel Trilogy Behind the Scenes Pics and Videos

This must have been purely for Promo. There was no scene in Ep III planed with them both in Padmes apartment.

 

Clap board says test.

Ewan and Hayden where in Australia earlier than most of the cast to get in shape and learn the fights scenes.

Probably a testing the set and costumes would work.with the lighting on the set especially important because if lit to Dark Anakin would just look like a blob of black on screen.

 

Date says 25-6-03. That's five days before principal photography. As you say, it's just a test.

 

And if I remember correctly from.the making of books Ewan and Hayden where in Australia a month before the rest of he cast.

 

Just checked: Hayden arrives two months before, in late April. Ewan arrived in early June.

 

Not sure if these have been posted yet, found them on FB.
EDIT: Bigger images in the link descriptions (I wish TFN allowed direct image uploads like other forums)


Didn't know this model was constructed in 1/4th scale.


Cut moment of Obi Wan trying to elbow Darth Maul?


George having fun aboard the Naboo Yacht.


With the slight motion blur and the purple lighting it looks reminiscent of an 80's airbrush artwork.

 

Modelmaker Charlie Bailey applies the distinctive yellow hue to Anakin Skywalker's full-size Jedi starfighter used for stage photography at the ILM Stage/Model Shop.

 

Wow, I didn't know how much of these locations involved hand-made models. That's cool to see.

 

This forum has a long running thread that still gets the odd post:

This has lots of photos. I put up a lot myself but that was with photobucket so they are gone now I suppose or whatever they ended up doing.

I did a quick check and they seem to all be still up but with the photobucket watermark:

Interesting photos, Master_Rebado!

Is that the inside of the AOTC Jedi Starfighter cockpit?

 

Thanks,yes that is the interior.

 

^ That's kind of epic.

 

No but they both had separate scenes in the apartment with Padme and since that set was up presumably those scenes were among the first to be shot before the set was struck. Of course Obi-Wan's scene beforehand was cut and we only got a reference to his visit in the final film.

 

I still have some hope that we'll someday see all these deleted scenes from the original shooting script of ROTS: the original crash-landing site pick-up (unless that's only in the comic adaptation), Obi Wan at Padmé's apartment, Palpatine planting the seeds of Padmé being with another Jedi (Obi Wan) as he walks along a landing platform with Anakin, the original duel between the Chancellor and the Jedi.

 

Also, the scene where Palpatine thanks Jar Jar for his help!

 

Iam very curious to see those Scenes too. Palps fighting the Jedi with Anakin observing should be great too but Iam mostly curious to see the Obi-Wan Padme scene
