Wow, forget how bad the SE are. Hate that droid on the far left just going out of shot.
Joe Johnston played both troopers shot split screened.

There are two guys standing there in the set photo though. Did they split screen a BTS photo? My brain hurts lol.
What are the chances we'd just be discussing this and then they'd post that?
I added the Tweet pic to the BTS pic I posted earlier.
Yeah, what's odd is that the two troopers are the same distance apart in both the BTS pic and the finished shot shown in the SW Tweet, and the trooper on left is in the exact same pose in both pics, meaning the BTS pic seems to show the actual used footage being shot. Bit of a mystery.
And what a weird thing - they made two suits and someone stole one of them? Wonder who scored that? In hindsight, the theft would be the present-day equivalent of netting $300k+ in a bank robbery; that would have been a unique ANH stormie variation.
Because of the storm internet was off here, so couldn't post earlier. But reading page 231 of Making of Star Wars book you can see this clearly:
"That was actually Joe Johnston down there in the foreground-in fact, it's Joe Johnston and Joe Johnston (middle). We only had one Imperial suit at that point, because the other had been stolen, so we shot it split-screen. We also needed two canons, but we only had one."

I'm thinking the behind the scenes photo is actually the footage at a point after they combined the two shots of Joe but before they blended it into the final shot.
Like around foam piece do I have to remove that piece
