About this episode
In this episode of the Filmumentaries podcast, I speak with Lorne Peterson, a founding member of Industrial Light and Magic (ILM) and chief model maker for iconic films including the original Star Wars trilogy. Lorne shares his journey into the world of filmmaking, the innovations he brought to model making, and the collaborative environment at ILM that fostered creativity. He discusses the design process behind the models, the excitement of seeing his work on the big screen, and the lasting impact of his contributions to the Star Wars franchise.
