Imagine, breaking into the film industry, where any chance at gaining experience is a valuable commodity and winding up working on a Star Wars film. That’s what happened to Hanna Brar as she started out on Solo: A Star Wars Story as a props trainee, and on to The Rise of Skywalker.
“One day to the other, the work is so varied. In the latest Star Wars film, I could be doing anything from creating weapons or armour, to ageing different props.
“Sometimes, you’d be on the stages in the studios actually building the sets. It’s super intense, but I love it.”
“Seeing something that you’ve created being used by one of the main characters on screen, as the main focus of the cinematography, it’s incredible.”
