Phil Tippett: The Legendary VFX Artist, on the Cantina, AT-ATs and the Rancor

We're talking to one of my heroes, one of the people who has been at the very top of the list to have on this show from the very beginning ... two time Academy Award winner, the legend: Phil Tippett. From the Cantina reshoots to the Dejarik chess table to the AT-AT stop motion to the ILM Return of the Jedi creature shop, Mr. Tippett was one of the driving forces of, not only the Star Wars world we know and love, but also the visual effects landscape as a whole. It is really an honor to have him on the show. I haven't stopped smiling since. It was literally a dream come true. Be sure to visit MadGodMovie.com for information on how to watch his latest project and be sure to seek out Mad Dreams and Monsters, the new documentary about him, coming soon. It's been fifty episodes and I am so grateful to you all for the listens, support and love. This has been an incredible journey with you all and, really, we're just getting started. If you enjoy the show, please leave a five-star rating and review. It is enormously helpful.
