present you yoda, i will

i had the pleasure to visit ILM/Lucasfilm LDAC campus in the san francisco presidio, and oh my, what a fun and unforgettable experience!

before check-in, we were greeted by the jedi master himself


then a miniature yoda welcomed us again with holiday spirit


R2-D2, where's C-3PO?


i forget if this is jar jar binks... frozen in carbonite together with han solo? (help me out guys, i have no knowledge of star wars!)


ok, i know this dude - darth vader


let's hold hands and be friends~


umm... i seriously forgot which side this trooper came from, even the guys mentioned about it... is he good or evil?


i do remember that they're called storm troopers


besides the star wars episodes, lucasfilm has also done special effects for many movies, including king kong. the harry potter series, deep impact, lemony snicket's a series of unfortunate events, etc. were among the rest.


~o christmas tree, o christmas tree~

the boys strive to become jedi masters


THANK YOU jonathan for giving us the tour and treating us to a really great lunch - with a view of the golden gate too!!! i'm so glad we got to visit you because this little field trip was definitely a highlight of my vacation~
