ILM CLASSIC IMAGE: DESTINATION UNKNOWN!


Recovering on one of the Rebel Medical Frigates from their previous injuries and ordeal at the hands of Darth Vader at Cloud City, our heroes look to the departing Millennium Falcon and the beauty of a nearby galaxy, for the striking and up-in-the-air conclusion to THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK.

This image used live action front projection material composited/overlaid into the model work, a trick often used with camera pass-bys by UK effects veteran Brian Johnson and his team when filming pilots in their Eagle vessel cockpits, during the making of the SPACE:1999 television series.
