ILM CLASSIC IMAGE: PHIL'S STOMPING GROUND!


Dennis Muren films test footage of Phil Tippett bravely enclosed in a Rancor costume, when it was originally planed to do the creature scenes with a man in a suit- a deliberate homage to the Japanese GODZILLA films. Results that didn't look too great when seen in dailies, and quickly prompted a re-think that utilized reshoots with Go-Motion puppetry instead.
