In this Nerdy Note, BK breaks down the legendary Yoda vs Dooku duel from Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones, exploring how the fight was brought to life behind the scenes.
Drawing directly from Light & Magic on Disney+, this episode looks at how ILM animation director Rob Coleman, Ahmed Best, George Lucas, and lead animator Tim Harrington used inspiration from 1980s anime, Bruce Lee films, Jet Li’s The Swordsman II, and classic westerns to shape Yoda’s movement and fighting style.
If you enjoy Star Wars behind-the-scenes, animation history, or film craft breakdowns, this Nerdy Note is for you.
