"Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" was released, the audience's reputation and media reputation were quite average, but it is undeniable that the visual effects are still at the top level. Recently, Industrial Light and Magic released a video about the secret effects behind the scenes, which is quite interesting. The film has been shortlisted for the 92nd Oscar for Best Visual Effects and will compete with "Avengers 4", "The Irishman", "The Lion King" and "1917".
Kelly Fisher, who played Leia, died at the end of 2017. She only completed the filming of "Star Wars: The Last Jedi". She didn't even see the script of "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker", but the director thought it was a story. I can’t live without her in the final chapter, and I don’t want to re-cast or completely CG characters. Many of
Princess Leia’s scenes are not used in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens". The special effects staff used the computer to re-modify the clothing and hairstyle and integrate them into "The Rise of Skywalker".
In addition, the training of young Luke and Leia involved in the film is also a synthesis of the photos of the two when they were young and the double actors.
At the end of the video, it is mentioned that there are still fragments in the film that are completed by model special effects. After all, this is the technology at the beginning of "Star Wars" in 1977, where the dream began.
