Good day fellow out of the box thinkers (and Star Wars fans)!
Lately I’ve been swarmed in one theme in particular, Star Wars. A pretty good topic if you ask me. We watched the movies, and we’re noticing parts of them in particular that caught our attention individually, what I was noticing was each character, and how maticulously they’re stories intertwined, every detail meant something that contributed to who they are.

Most of all, the Star Wars was an experience! Watching all of the films (exept the second three made) with all of my classmates. Finding out what interested me the most. Taking it upon myself to find and interview an esteemed professional, on my own. To create an interesting project, and execute it well. The many
Below is the information about each character that I collected, and created, along with a sketch of how I was hoping they’d turn out.
All you have to do is begin and the ideas will flow through your mind, open your thoughts and don’t worry whether it’s a good idea, all that matters is that it is an idea. Open your mind and begin… click below for more.
Based off of my short film I will follow, what kind of person do you think Eroi (the main character) is? How far would he go?

A positive of this post is the writing, which is pretty good. There’s just a few problems with the layout of the photos especially the key photo messing with the side bar. The video is not embedded and there are a few spelling errors.
