Here's a really cool video breakdown of the classic asteroid chase scene from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. This is a vintage featurette for the film that was released by StarWars.com. The video features the full scene overlayed with the original storyboards used to help bring it to life. Everything used in the storyboards looks almost exactly like how it ended up in the final movie. I love seeing stuff like this, and I hope you enjoy it! 

This vintage featurette for The Empire Strikes Back takes viewers through the film's famed asteroid field sequence, overlayed with the original storyboards. Storyboards are essential to the preproduction of a movie, as they map out how scenes will visually appear.
