Behind the Iconic Sounds of Star Wars

While in the original THX theater -- where Return of the Jedi was mixed! -- Adam Savage sits down with Academy Award-winning sound designer, film director, editor, screenwriter and voice actor Ben Burtt, the man behind the iconic sounds you know and love from the Star Wars franchise, from R2D2’s beeps and boops to Chewbacca’s rrrruuurrr to Darth Vader’s heavy breathing. What’s YOUR favorite Star Wars sound? NOTE: This video was filmed before 32TEN Studios was closed permanently, and its contents auctioned off.
