Cool stuff: May the force be with us... (video+trailers)

This little post has nothing and everything to do with being a photographer...

As a proud child of the seventies, this December can't come fast enough. Because when Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits cinemas, my mind will hyperspace back to being six, embracing all those wonderful thoughts I discovered while watching a movie which changed my life.

The above teaser is a behind the scenes snippet of what is going into the making of Episode VII of the saga - edited in such a way as to tug at the heartstrings of anyone who loved the original trilogy. In one scene, note the sound of sprockets and film running through a 'proper' camera.

It's a true perk of operating your own site which allows the inclusion of something like this. The trailer is laced with quality, fun, anticipation and obvious joy - vital ingredients of anything creative. I've also worked for more than a few clients who've acted like Darth Vader, but that's a whole other story...

Enjoy. Then watch it again. And below are the trailers to-date...
