Come behind the scenes of GONK: A Droid’s Odyssey, my Star Wars fan short packed with DIY effects, puppets, and miniature sets! 🚀🎬
In this BTS video, I show how I brought a forgotten droid into the spotlight using practical effects, hand-built props, and classic low-budget filmmaking techniques inspired by the original trilogy. From crafting tiny sets to puppeteering Gonk himself, this was a true labour of love—and chaos.
If you're into Star Wars, indie film, or just love seeing how scrappy, creative filmmaking gets done, you're in the right place.
🛠️ Practical FX
🤖 Droid puppetry
🌌 Miniature spacescapes
🎥 Filmmaking on a budget
