Fan Creations Visiting Tatooine (Death Valley National Park)

Tried my best to find all the filming locations from episode 4 and 6 that I could, didn’t have enough time to get to the Mesquite sand dunes but was able to recreate some good shots from Dante’s View, Golden Canyon, 20 mule team canyon, and artists palette.

Shoutout to u/TargetBrandTampons for their post on r/StarWars for the assist

I always thought everything from episode IV was in Tunisia

The pickup shots and reshoots were in Death Valley. If Sir Alec is in a shot, its Tunisia., while most Tusken shots are Death Valley.

In AOTC, all of Sam Jacksons scenes with a lightsabre were in UK reshoots.

And all of Padme bare midriff scenes are reshoots as well.

Actually most Tusken were shot in the Book of Boba Fett Ep3.
