Paul Davids: Author of "The Glove of Darth Vader", Creator of Trioculus and Zorba the Hutt
Paul Davids co-wrote the Jedi Prince series of books, best known for The Glove of Darth Vader, as well as characters like Trioculus, Zorba the Hutt … and, of course, the grandchild of Emperor Palpatine. And that was 30 years ago! I grew up reading these books and so getting to talk about their creation was such a blast. (Mr. Davids sure knows how to tell a story.) It's such a fun interview. And, as mentioned, if you’re interested in checking out any of his latest projects you can visit the following links: http://www.pauldavids.com/ https://www.pauldavids-artist.com/ https://www.amazon.com/The-Grand-Kingdom-of-Cookieland/dp/B08H82BY83 Thank you to everyone who left such wonderful reviews on Apple this week. It is always so appreciated if you can leave a 5-star review of the show right here on your favorite podcast app, or on Podchaser: podchaser.com/TalkingBay94 Unedited transcripts of previous episodes are now available over at talkingbay94.com.

Richard Stride: Bringing Poggle the Lesser (and Hundreds of Clones) to Life
The prequel renaissance continues! Richard Stride played Separatist leader Poggle the Lesser in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, as well as numerous other roles, including Clone Troopers and … Obi-Wan Kenobi (in more scenes than you would believe). It’s a great, quick inside look at what it was like to be on set while they were filming the prequels, and I hope you all enjoy it! As mentioned, you can check out his website, richardstride.co.uk, for more information, as well as upcoming roles and appearances. Next week is my long-awaited interview with the author of the Glove of Darth Vader series, Paul Davids. It’s a wild one, so hang on.

Paul Duncan: On the Creation of The Star Wars Archives and Interviewing George Lucas
Paul Duncan is a writer, historian, and the author of the two volumes of Taschen's Star Wars Archives. Mr. Duncan’s research, insights, and his exclusive multi-day interviews with George Lucas, himself, make these books a must-have for any Star Wars fan ... and this interview, if I do say so myself, a must-listen. Listening back on this interview while editing, I was again just so impressed (and obviously so inspired) by Mr. Duncan, and I hope to one day be half the interviewer, researcher and writer that he is. To buy Mr. Duncan’s Star Wars books from Taschen: https://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/film/all/01170/facts.the_star_wars_archives_19771983.htm And to buy his other equally incredible works, directly from his Amazon store: https://www.amazon.com/Paul-Duncan/e/B002QY4OOG It is always so appreciated if you can leave a 5-star review of the show right here on your favorite podcast app, or on Podchaser: podchaser.com/TalkingBay94 Unedited transcripts of previous episodes are now available over at talkingbay94.com.

The Book of Boba Fett: An Oral History of the Bounty Hunter
Today is Talking Bay 94 … Episode 94. So I wanted to do something special, especially after the announcement of The Book of Boba Fett series, as well as the very sad news of Jeremy Bulloch’s passing last week. Over the past few years of this show, we’ve been able to interview a lot of cast and crew members, who have put on the Mandalorian armor, who have helped design it, or who have brought it to life in other ways. What follows is a brief, chronological look at bringing Boba Fett to the screen for the Original Trilogy, from 1978 to the 1997 Special Editions, using clips from our past 94 episodes to do so. I’ll be introducing the people who will be talking beforehand, and there will also be some select archival clips from people we may not have been able to interview. If any of these seem interesting, definitely go back through our episode library to hear these full stories. Let’s all just buckle up, then, and listen to these talented people talk about their experience with everyone’s favorite Bucket Head. It is always so appreciated if you can leave a 5-star review of the show right here on your favorite podcast app, or on Podchaser: podchaser.com/TalkingBay94 Unedited transcripts of previous episodes are now available over at talkingbay94.com.

Dan Perri: Designer of Star Wars' Opening Crawl
Dan Perri is an iconic title designer, who, well, created the opening crawl of the original Star Wars. You know, the crawl. His work spans decades and directors, and I try to tackle as many as I can: from William Friedkin (The Exorcist) and Martin Scorcese (Taxi Driver, Gangs of New York) to Steven Spielberg (Close Encounters) and, of course, George Lucas. We dive deep into his process and his experiences, from his early years being inspired by Saul Bass to designing the titles for the Suspiria remake. To be the first to find out when his book is coming out, head to www.danperri.com. This Friday, at 7:30 PM Central, we will be live again on Scener.com, breaking down Episode 7 of The Mandalorian Season 2.

David Dozoretz: Pre-Visualization of Dewbacks, Podraces and Droid Factories
David Dozoretz spearheaded the pre-visualization work on the Special Editions and the first two Star Wars prequels, as pre-vis effects supervisor. He is such an immense talent and has such incredible passion for his work, so it was a real honor. This is such a fun episode, a deep dive into what it was like to be working at Skywalker Ranch ... while they were literally changing how movies we being made forever. (Also stick around for a John Knoll egg toss picnic story.) To see more of his work (including the effects reel from The Phantom Menace we were talking about), head to his website: https://www.daviddozoretz.com/ This Friday, at 7:30 PM Central, we will be live again on Scener.com, breaking down Episode 6 of The Mandalorian Season 2.

Chris Bartlett: On Portraying Protocol Droids, Bounty Hunters and a Flute-Playing Kubaz
Chris Bartlett is not only is the official "Media C-3PO", but also has had numerous roles in these first two seasons of The Mandalorian, including bounty hunter Q9-0 and the flute-playing Kubaz from the very first episode. His story of turning his cosplaying and costume-building hobby into a profession is super inspiring, and his stories of working with people like Anthony Daniels, Carl Weathers, Werner Herzog …and Barack Obama, are such a delight. You’re going to love this one. On Black Friday, we'll be dropping our newest line of merch, featuring restocks of old shirts, as well as new items I’m really excited about (including an “Edited by Marcia Lucas” credits shirt and a reproduction of an Empire Strikes Back sound crew shirt that you’re not going to believe).

Todd Vaziri: Putting the "Magic" in Industrial Light & Magic
Industrial Light & Magic digital artist and compositing supervisor Todd Vaziri has worked on every Star Wars movie since 2002, beginning with Attack of the Clones. Whether for the prequels (including the final duel on Mustafar), the sequels (figuring out the feel of a modern Star Wars movie), the spin-offs (helping to bring Tarkin and the Kessel Run to life), theme park rides (including Star Tours and Rise of the Resistance), or Stephen Colbert’s Green Screen Challenge, Mr. Vaziri’s passion for movie-making is evident in his every shot, and in his every answer on this episode. I’ve wanted him to be a guest on Talking Bay 94 for such a long time, and man, it was so worth the wait. Make sure you are following him on Twitter: @TVaziri … he is truly one of the best people to follow, period, on that app. This Friday, at 7:30 PM Central, we will be live again on Scener.com, breaking down Episode 4 of The Mandalorian Season 2.

Dave Dorman: Iconic Star Wars Artist of Comics and Covers
Dave Dorman is one of the greatest Star Wars artists of all time. Since the early days of the Expanded Universe, Mr. Dorman’s art has been some of the most iconic images of a galaxy far far away. From Dark Empire to Tales of the Jedi, Dark Forces and beyond, it was a real treat getting to dive in a little bit more into his process. As you know, we don’t typically release episodes on Saturdays ... but this is a special episode, brought to you by our friends at Coolwaters Productions, who are currently doing an autograph signing with Harrison Ford. After the interview, we are then joined by Coolwaters President Derek Maki for about 15 minutes worth of a Ford Signing Q&A. (And there probably won’t be an episode this Wednesday, just knowing what Tuesday night has in store and my mental headspace, so I wanted to make sure this at least was published now!) Here's a direct link to the exclusive Indiana Jones print we were talking about, as well as a ton of other options for the Harrison Ford signing: https://coolwatersprods.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=9&products_id=2158 Our live rewatch last night of The Mandalorian Chapter 9 was a ton of fun on Scener. Thanks to all who joined us. We’ll be back again with a couple of special guests for Chapter 10 this next Friday, so we’ll see you then.

BLIND LTD's work as a London-based creative studio designing user interfaces for movies, whether it is for James Bond or The Dark Knight Trilogy (or, especially, Star Wars) is simply incredible.

Some other topics include: - Growing up wanting to be an animator (and being self-taught) - Getting involved with Nelvana (known for Ewoks and Droids), as well as how George Lucas first heard about the studio through Cosmic Christmas - Inspirations for the short ranging from Heavy Metal magazine and Moebius to Clint Eastwood You have a week, as of this publishing, to help with Mr. Celestri’s Kickstarter and get that Boba Fett sketch for yourself: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/johncelestri/john-the-animator-comicx For even more Lucasfilm animation stories, check out Skytalkers’ incredible 3-part deep dive about animation: https://skytalkers.com/2020/07/25/star-wars-animation-1978-2012/ It is always so appreciated if you can leave a 5-star review of the show right here on your favorite podcast app, or on Podchaser: podchaser.com/TalkingBay94 Transcripts of previous episodes are starting to become available over at talkingbay94.com, which I hope will serve as a resource.

Gavin Bocquet: Prequel Production Designer, Star Wars Legend
The incredible work that Gavin Bocquet did with his team to bring worlds like Naboo, Coruscant and Geonosis to life in The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, cannot go unsaid. This is a really rare interview with someone who made an indelible mark on the saga, as well as things like Young Indiana Jones, Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance and so many more … and I don’t think he’s talked in-depth about Star Wars in nearly a decade. It was a huge honor and a really great conversation. Some topics discussed: - His early mentorship with Stuart Craig (Saturn 3, Harry Potter) as well as working of Return of the Jedi with Norman Reynolds, as a Draftsman (Speeder bikes and Greeblies) - Working with Steven Soderbergh on Kafka, his second ever film - Walking over to his neighbor's house, Rick McCallum, on Christmas Eve  to inquire about working on Young Indiana Jones (later with David Tattersall and Trisha Biggar) - Of course, the Prequels: collaborating with Doug Chiang and John Knoll, location scouting with McCallum (who wanted to shoot in the Vatican), the Pink / Yellow highlighters - And wrapping with some serious Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance talk that no Henson fan will want to miss.

Niki Botelho: Bringing Teek to Life in Ewoks - The Battle for Endor
We're LIVE and talking to Teek herself, Niki Botelho from The Battle for Endor. This is a pretty short, fairly rare look inside making the second Ewok film, as well as Niki’s return as an Offworld Jawa in The Mandalorian ... and if that was her as Teek in the Star Tours boarding video. (And, of course, since this was recorded live, some of our audio is not as crisp as other episodes, but you’ll get over it.) If you want even more Teek stories, head on over to the most recent episode of Blast Points, where there is almost 5 extra minutes of this interview, which I recorded to help celebrate their Ewok Movie Month. And, of course, this episode would not be possible without our friends at Galactic Productions. Head to their website for future appearances, as well as a really great stock of online autographs: galacticproductionsevents.com Next week: my very rare conversation with prequel production designer Gavin Bouquet, who I don’t think has talked about Star Wars in nearly 20 years. Wild stuff.

Bruce Nicholson: Two-Time Academy Award Winner for Star Wars and Indiana Jones
With his groundbreaking work on The Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark as optical photography supervisor, Bruce Nicholson is an Industrial Light and Magic Legend. If you don’t know what optical photography and compositing is, this episode is a crash course in all of that, including what is was like working alongside the Dykstraflex, mistakes in the end scene of Raiders and … the time he was the first person to suit up in the finished Boba Fett costume. Next week: Ewok Movie Month Madness, with our friends at Blast Points.

Rena Owen: Bringing Taun We to Life in Star Wars: Attack of the Clones
Star Wars fans will know Ms. Owen best as the Kaminoan Taun We in Attack of the Clones, but she has done so much (including a return in Revenge of the Sith as Senator Nee Alavar). From humble beginnings growing up in New Zealand, to first working with Temuera Morrison on Once Were Warriors, we went through so much of her incredible career (whether The Orville or Siren, and beyond). And, listen on to find out what role she was initially cast to play in Episode 2. It is always so appreciated if you can leave a 5-star review of the show right here on your favorite podcast app, or on Podchaser: podchaser.com/TalkingBay94 Transcripts of previous episodes are now available at talkingbay94.com, which I hope will serve as a resource for you all.
