LucasFilm Guest Appearances - Part 2

When: When we are introduced to Jabba the Hutt and when Jabba is awakened.
Where: Although there are others in this shot, I do not know what they look like. The red arrow labeled #1 is pointing to animation director Rob Coleman, who was responsible for creating Jar Jar, Watto, Boss Nass and other digital creatures. The red arrow labeled #2 is pointing to Bib Fortuna, played by Matthew Wood who was co-supervising sound editor for TPM.
Story: According to John Knoll, there were moments during filming when George Lucas would need extras but needed them immediately and couldn?t wait for a casting company to get them to the set. So he asked people standing around to help out - which ended up being many of the ILM crew. In this scene also includes Jeff Shay and even ex-ILMer John Ellis, who was optical printer operator in ROTJ. If you can spot them, submit it here.
