Making Star Wars: Webdocs

The walls of the Skywalker Ranch art department are papered with sketches and the tables are littered with sculptures of the objects and bizarre creatures that inhabit the worlds of Episode I.

Anakin's hovel was the first set completed at Leavesden Studios in England, where most of the shooting for Star Wars: Episode I took place. A total of 55 sets were built and decorated under the direction of Production Designer Gavin Bocquet and Set Decorator Peter Walpole. Gavin is an alumnus of the original Star Wars trilogy - he worked as an art department draftsman on Return of the Jedi.
