The first one is here:
Porsche x Star Wars: Twin Tests
The second one is here:
And this time again, it was announced that the designers of Porsche AG and Lucasfilm Ltd. are jointly designing a spaceship ^ ^ Spaceship!
The first video released was the Taycan Turbo S and Kylo Ren's new space fighter, the Tie Fighter, but I was wondering if it was just a "fast ride comrade". However (← excuse me), wasn't it actually the prelude to "co-developing a spaceship"? ??
It seems that it was quite difficult to develop a spaceship with "Porsche's DNA".
After all, the spaceship has four lights, and I wonder if it has a cork bottle design ^ ^ It is a Star Wars spaceship, but after all it can also have a Porsche crest ... right? Can't you connect?
According to Michael Mauer, Vice President of Style Porsche
"At first glance, I don't seem to share much with the Star Wars design team, but in reality I have a similar design philosophy, and I was inspired by the fact that I was able to work with them. And I was fascinated by them. This collaboration is very good for each other. "
And that.
Doug Chiang, executive creative director of Lucasfilm and director of the overall Star Wars design, said:
"This project connects the two worldviews. It's a collaboration between the design of an exotic film in a galaxy far, far away and the delicate work of Porsche's sports car development. Porsche and Star Wars It will create an innovatively designed spaceship that blends the best of both brands. "
The Porsche and Lucasfilm team regularly meet in Stuttgart and San Francisco.
Porsche Taycan will also be exhibited at the premiere of Star Wars' latest work in December 2019.
Porsche x Star Wars: The Designer Alliance
Somehow, such a site about the designer alliance of Porsche and Star Wars was also made ^ ^
Spacecraft design proposal made by Porsche and Star Wars
On this site, the design team of this Porsche x Star Wars is introduced.
In addition, each designer's spaceship design proposal is also posted, and there was also a design by Japanese designer Shuichi Yamashita ~ ^ ^ I would like to see below.
Grevious Vehicle: Ryan Church
Shuichi Yamashita (Mr. Shuichi Yamashita)
Republic Federation Spaceship: Doug Chiang
Gilsung Park
Doeke De Walle
X-Wing Fighter: Joe Johnston
The Fighter: Ralph Mcquarrie
Salar Vakili
After all, when it comes to spaceships, it's more like "Oh, it's a Porsche!" Rather than "Oh, it's a spaceship!" I'm sorry I'm always rough ^^
What will happen in the end?
If you notice it, December is just around the corner. I'm sure that various Porsche x Star Wars will be announced at a high pace from now on. I'm looking forward to it ~.
