Zitat:
Morris says there were about 1,850 straight VFX shots, with 300 or 400 more shots that involved production fixes or makeup help, putting the final total well over 2,000 shots. Those shots ranged from simple to incredibly complex, as illustrated by the vastly different techniques used to create Supreme Leader Snoke and Yoda.

For Yoda, voiced as always by Frank Oz, a puppet was used for the first time since 1999’s Star Wars: Episode I -- The Phantom Menace. “He was entirely a puppet -- we just did a little bit of Force glow around him and some cleanup and slight assistance every now and then when a blink wouldn’t work or something,” says Morris. “I love a good puppet. When a puppet works, it’s beautiful.”

One of the more striking effects sequences in The Last Jedi occurs with Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo, played by Laura Dern, uses the Resistance’s failing final cruiser to slice through the First Order’s armada at light speed. Morris says the scene looks the way it was written, but that his original thought was it called for massive destruction and wild, vibrant colors.

“Rian said, ‘Let’s play this as total silence,’” says Morris. “We were trying to think, what would show the incredible energy of an object moving at infinite speed tearing through another object?”

It was atomic research photography in cloud chambers with particle physics that provided the answer, with the way things shatter, scatter and create strange shapes, Morris says. Then they took all color out, inspired by the pure intensity created by the light of a burning ribbon of magnesium.

ILM’s Vancouver studio handled the sequence, and Morris says he’s seen the movie with audiences that reacted very positively to the effect. “It’s a unique look in this film that we’ve never seen before,” he says.
