This early work (1983) was low budget and student level experience for an 8-year old's Birthday. Unable to borrow costumes from mega-producer George Lucas, Terry contacted a local prostheticist to create Storm Troopers from the material of artificial legs. Costumes were sewn to combine with available masks to create Darth Vader, Chewbacca and two Sand Creatures. Next, local news anchor Mike James agreed to announce the arrival of the ship. Crews then filmed the party and chase through the Seattle Center, culminating in their arrival at the party. Later, it was all edited together into an entertaining story that still holds the record for The Best Birthday Party Ever.
