A Thousand Stars: Episode V, Part 5

For exterior shots on Hoth, production went to an actual frozen, snow-laden location in Norway. But for the indoor shots, they needed to transform a soundstage into a giant ice cave hanger.

It looks quite convincing. The jagged icy stalactites and stalagmites, the freezing look of the floor, and the stark white color palette that includes even the pipes along the walls. Lastly, there's the blend of technology and organic, droids and tauntauns, that has always given Star Wars a distinctive flavor. It's just so visually interesting.

Next time, some emerging Jedi skills...
