The ILMxLAB panel, moderated by @TheApexFan, is beginning at #SDCC #StarWars pic.twitter.com/SVzCGxHoQ4— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
ILMxLAB is all about taking elements of games, rides, and movies to create something “a little different” to make you a part of the story #SDCC #StarWars— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019

ILMxLAB team is talking about how they engage all the senses to create memories that stick with you. Including smell, where they tried many things (includig roasting marshmallows and sulphur) to find the smell of Mustafar. #SDCC #StarWars— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
With Trials of Tatooine, one the ILMxLAB team members said they knew they were getting things right when people started freaking out when R2 enters and hand you a lightsaber #StarWars #SDCC pic.twitter.com/uEpnXAcitw— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
Anthony Daniels once tried Trials on Tatooine, and he started narrating the opening crawl as C-3PO as he was watching it. #ILMxLAB #SDCC #StarWars— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
The ILMxLAB team treat their experiences as if they were making a #StarWars movie when it comes to visuals, music, sound design, casting, etc. #SDCC— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
ILMxLAB is able to use the same CGI assets (tweaked for VR) from the films in their experiences. R2 and the Millennium Falcon in Trials on Tatooine are examples of this (Falcon is the same one from TFA) #StarWars #SDCC— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
In Droid Repair Bay everything is communicated in droid speak, and not any human language. #ILMxLAB #SDCC #StarWars pic.twitter.com/dyy0U5Pea0— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
Project Porg brings Porgs into your home. They inhabit your space and learn the layout of your home. The Porg (and their family) also grows over time #ILMxLAB #SDCC #StarWars pic.twitter.com/j8G9JRpPQk— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
#StarWars has always been about moving technology forward, and #ILMxLAB sees themselves as an extension of that legacy #SDCC— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
One of the #ILMxLAB team members says they wanted Project Porg 2 to be a BBQ simulator! #SDCC #StarWars— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
Having Alan Tudyk on set as K-2SO working on Secrets of the Empire “was a really incredible experience” #ILMxLAB #SDCC pic.twitter.com/cMWE5wgJrX— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
The social aspects and collaboration in Secrets of the Empire really grounds it as a “real experience” #SDCC #ILMxLAB #StarWars— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
Vader Immortal “represents the culmination” of everything ILMxLAB has been working on #SDCC #StarWars pic.twitter.com/UuxR6eJflB— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
Vader Immortal was originally a little more passive, with you just observing. Felt it wasn’t engaging enough, so they decided to make a #StarWars story where you are the main character #SDCC #ILMxLAB— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
David S. Goyer was brought in to make the original version, and chose to stick with the project even after ILMxLAB restructured the experience and story #SDCC #StarWars— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019

Episode 2 will allow you to use the Force and travel through an underground fortress. #ILMxLAB #SDCC #StarWars pic.twitter.com/qmqUIOC2Rh
#ILMxLAB works very closely with the Lucasfilm story group to ensure the “canonicity” of the experiences. Team wanted to get crew shirts that said “It’s canon, bitch” #SDCC #StarWars— The SWU @ #SDCC (@TheSWU) July 19, 2019
