I like when Lando tosses something into the background and it hits the stormtrooper on the head. Little things like that.
How long does it take to do this sort of thing, a sequence like the Emperor at the hair salon? All that stop-motion stuff just seems so tedious and time-consuming (I know, I know...that's how all this stuff was done prior to CGI).
Do they just use a still camera and click a single pic, then move the characters? How do they time it so it matches with the dialogue so well? I guess there's a formula to go by, regarding frame count and elapsed time.
Has anyone here ever tried that? All you'd need is a digital camera, a tripod, some toys and a boatload of patience, right?
