When George Lucas first took over the Star Wars saga, many anticipated it to be magnificent—and it was. Since then, the Star Wars franchise has now become a multi-billion dollar industry. The Making of Episode I: The Phantom Menace captured the energy on the sets of the making of the first of the series of the prequel to the original Star Wars. For the fans who regard the series as a religion, I felt that the design of the original book did not do it justice. I decided to separate the images from the text and did not crop out any of the details of the images. This increases the value of the work that was put into the movie. I also included a part of The Odyssey by Homer, which was the main inspiration for the original Star Wars.
