Cade Martin c/o Andrea Heberger durfte den legendären Star Wars Roboter 3CPO im American National History Museum im Auftrag des Smithsonian Magazins, der offiziellen Zeitschrift der Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C. fotografieren.
"Eye to Eye with 3-PO is a very unforgettable moment. I was charged with photographing C3PO for a section of the magazine called “National Treasure” at the National Museum of American History in Washington, DC. While we couldn’t touch him, I could see and feel the craft that went into bringing his character to life on the screen. Focusing in on the droid’s hinges, lines and luster - the physical realness of this character - I did my best to channel the cinematic origin, to capture a movie still not a product shot. Thank you, as always, to Jeff Campagna for the opportunities to photograph these pieces of history, to Smithsonian Magazine for being a true giant in chronicling the objects of our collective history and culture, and to LucasFilm and Disney for your imaginations."
