Summary

We're discussing all things Batuu with Walt Disney Imagineering's Scott Trowbridge — a two-time guest! — and author Amy Ratcliffe. The Art of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is jam-packed with never-before-seen concept art, Star Wars secrets and behind-the-scenes stories of how these lands were really made. It's rare to get such a robust look at how these spaces are created — and what was left behind — and both Scott and Amy were game to discuss *everything* between its covers. Come aboard as we chat secret ride code names, design principles and even the 26-foot-long hamster-gerbil that lives on within Star Wars lore!!! Thanks to our special guests…..
