Star Wars never looked so real

February 10, 2010 By ThisBlogRules 37 Comments

This set of images, where the Star Wars scenes appear so realistic, is called “StArt Wars”. The shooting of the photos happened in Dubai and is directed by photographer Cedric Delsaux from France. The project shows how Star Wars would look if it took place on the earth instead of the space.

He is an awarded photographer and winner of the newcomer’s “France Bourse du Talent” competition which stands for “Young Talent Award for Photography”. If you are a Star Wars fan you should check out why Star Wars movie posters in Russia differ from other posters.

    Uhhhh who told you that these look like Star Wars?
    The aesthetics are completely irrelevant.

    Cool! Star Wars in real life environments. My favourite is the last one (AT-AT)

    Starwars never looked this much like District 9

    One thing I always hated about Star Wars was it’s muppet-like sets. I guess they had to make them that way to blend in with their 70’s space models.

    Some of the pics are cool. I don’t see a link with the construction ones though. Good photography nevertheless.

    AT AT in the last pic is waaaay too big.

    The 9th image, the stormtrooper sitting up in the roof is incorrect in size, compared to those on the floor. He looks 12ft tall.

    proportion fail

  12. Shrike says

    Are all of these in Dubai? I see at least a few areas that I recognize…

  13. Shrike says

    February 19, 2010 at 4:50 am

    Wow, I should read the words instead of just looking at the pictures…lol

  14. barricade says

    February 19, 2010 at 5:30 am

    @Don

    Wow. Everything about your sentence is incorrect.

    On topic: Some of these are terrible, but Vader and the trade federation droids sitting on the car are great.

  15. barricade says

    February 19, 2010 at 5:34 am

    @steve

    Look again. He’s not “sitting on a roof.” He’s riding a speeder bike, and is closer to the camera, hence his lager size.

    Proportion correct.

    /fix’d

    February 19, 2010 at 10:43 am

    Oh these are totally good. Its cool if we would have seen them in Africa or China

    @STEVE “The 9th image, the stormtrooper sitting up in the roof is incorrect in size, compared to those on the floor. He looks 12ft tall.

    proportion fail”

    its because they are battle droids…analysis fail

  18. Man, shut up. says

    February 19, 2010 at 12:09 pm

    Ha ha, minor discrepancies in proportion in otherwise beautiful and unique photographs should be brought to attention so that EVERYONE KNOWS HOW SMART I AM.
    Who cares? Get over it.

  19. San says

    February 19, 2010 at 12:38 pm

    Awesome. Are these in Desktop-Resolution available somewhere? The AT-AT would be the greatest Wallpaper ever.

  20. toby says

    February 19, 2010 at 12:50 pm

    @steve, thats because he is not sitting up in the roof. He is riding a speederbike and is closer to the camera than the rest of the group.

    perception fail….

    Shows you how computer graphics and new developments still do not match real world scenes and great cinematography. Time to make a new star wars in this tone.

  22. Fresh says

    February 19, 2010 at 1:46 pm

    Steve in the 9th image, The Biker Scout you are referring to is not “sitting up in the roof” he is riding a speeder bike (the ones from Endor) and he is much closer to front which is why he appears to be bigger. Look at it again.

    Reminds me of Irobot

  24. Lee says

    February 19, 2010 at 11:37 pm

    What’s happening in the 12th photo with all the cranes? I can’t see anything Star Warsy. Is it the yellow crane in the foreground?

  25. poo says

    February 20, 2010 at 9:22 am

    Lee, there is a battle droid on top of the crane.

  26. huckleberry says

    February 23, 2010 at 3:14 pm

    Several of the battle droid shots are good, but most of these are awful. In many of these, the scale is way off, and the project comes across as lazy or amateurish photoshop work done on a hot Friday afternoon after a heavy lunch. If a friend did this and emailed them to me, I would laugh a little and delete it. This is by no means professional level work.

    Got any higher resolutions? Dying to make some of these my background…

    This makes me remember the first movies of Star Wars. It is so like Star Wars to me. This are good projection of Star Wars.

    Thank you for the post. When you have time, feel free to visit mine.

  32. Dan Druff says

    July 12, 2010 at 2:37 pm

    @STEVE – That isn’t a droid sitting on the roof, it’s one of those flying scout things you see in the Hoth planet battle. Comment fail..

  33. csr says

    July 12, 2010 at 8:33 pm

    Please tell you me you have high-resolution versions of these images that you’ll post at a later date?

  35. JohnS says

    February 4, 2013 at 3:30 am

    Google search ST-ST in fog got me a nice 1280 version of it. Just search Google with a description of the pic, then more sizes… done.

  36. JohnS says

    February 4, 2013 at 3:30 am
