Early on in Star Wars : The Last Jedi , R2 - D2 hear to get his disillusioned former captain Luke Skywalker to bring together the fight against the First Order with what Luke calls a “ tinny trick”—replaying the hologram that started Luke ’s journeying in the first place . But it turn out , a lot of work went into make that hologram sound like it had been accumulating dust since A New Hope .
verbalize toThe Hollywood Reporter , Lucasfilm ’s supervising profound editor Matthew Wood — nominate at this year ’s Oscar for The Last Jedi — revealed that while the clip of Carrie Fisher herself was from the original tape recording Lucasfilm ’s archive , the team took a decidedly analog approach to making it look dated and tire out down .
so as to make Leia ’s speech sense like it ’s disintegrate a bit from sit around in R2 ’s memory for over 30 years , the team re - recorded a new transcript of the message on an actual tape … and then beat the crap out of it :

Then , rather than doing a digital cognitive process on it , we record it to an analog composition of tape — people might not bang what that is anymore — but we record it on that piece of tape a bunch of clock time then draw it through the soil at Skywalker Ranch . We crumpled it , crush it , discombobulate it in a lake , rub rocks on it , distress it and tied it to a car and drive it around .
A few crumplings subsequently , and you have one genuinely sure-enough - fathom piece of dialogue ready to be fitted into a similarly - old - reckon hologram . Sometimes the easiest moviemaking tricks process best !
