In honor of the 40th anniversary of “Star Wars,” the festival will praise the set designer who helped bring the film to life: Alan Roderick-Jones.

Most famous for his Oscar-winning work on “Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope” (1977), Alan has also contributed Oscar-winning talent to “Nicholas and Alexandria” (1971), and has won four Cleo Awards for his art direction in the world of commercials.

Alan will be receiving the annual lifetime achievement award at the Oceanside Film Festival this year, and will also be hosting a special Star Wars set design workshop on Saturday, August 12th.

All events are open to the public. Just hurry, because this workshop will sell out fast.
