This Film Courage video discusses various aspects of the Star Wars franchise, including the initial vision of George Lucas, the creation of a rich story world, the use of off-screen events to engage the audience's imagination, the development of complex and layered villains like Darth Vader, the creative decisions that led to expanded universe content, and the thematic arguments within the story.

Stuff we use:

LENS - Most people ask us what camera we use, no one ever asks about the lens which filmmakers always tell us is more important. This lens was a big investment for us and one we wish we could have made sooner. Started using this lens at the end of 2013 - http://amzn.to/2tbtmOq

AUDIO

Audio Recorder - If we had to do it all over again, this is probably the first item we would have bought - http://amzn.to/2tbFlM9

LIGHTS - Although we like to use as much natural light as we can, we often enhance the lighting with this small portable light. We have two of them and they have saved us a number of times - http://amzn.to/2u5UnHv
