The writing career of actress Carrie Fisher, a former child star who played the role of Princess Leia in the Star Wars movies, spans over 30 years. Her face has a prominent role in the original Star Wars films, so she's worth mentioning.Ĭarrie Fisher's writing was based on George Lucas' script This makes her a highly versatile character. Her face is visible during some scenes, but her body is completely covered by carbonite. While the face of Boba Fett can be seen in the original Star Wars films, there's a much more interesting side to this character. The face is visible in the upcoming Star Wars: The Mandalorian film, but there's no evidence that Jango Fett ever died in the Sarlacc pit. The original Star Wars films showed Boba Fett wearing an identity-obscuring helmet, so it's unclear if he died in a Sarlacc pit or was merely a newborn. The designer of the new clone, Boba Fett, has expressed regret that projects are being created that show the bounty hunter without a helmet. Burtt's voice resembles the natural voice of Artoo and has a rich and diverse library of sounds that can be traced to real world objects.īoba Fett's face is visible in the original films The audio black hole he created for the movie's soundtrack is a good example of a technique he used to create realistic sound effects.

In one scene, the droids were supposed to breathe, but the sounds were too quiet. Burtt spent a lot of time in drive-in movies, where he rigged a recorder to a speaker. He recorded the sounds in his car and then played them back as a way to relive his favorite films. While working on Star Wars, Ben Burtt gathered ideas for the various sounds and voice-acting for the characters.
