George Lucas has revealed details of the two upcoming Star Wars TV series, reports Variety.
Speaking at the annual Siggraph computer graphics conference in Los Angeles yesterday he announced that Lucasfilm has already begun work on both an animated and a live action series.
The animated show, Clone Wars, will be developed at Lucas Animation's Singapore branch. "It's a way for me to get my foot into anime, which I like," he revealed.
He went on to say that he aims to be particularly cost-effective in making the live-action series. He explained: "we're going do something that would normally cost ($20 million-$30 million) and try to do it for $1 million," adding that it would be shot with a normal Sony digital camera system.
