Jim had been working for many years on an idea for an all fantasy adventure using all mechanical creatures. Because Yoda was along the idea of this work, he thought it would be a good experiment. He offered a tremendous amount of assistance: Frank Oz and other members of Henson’s staff actually did the performing of Yoda and they offered their expertise to Stuart Freeborn who was the makeup and creature supervisor for the development of Yoda.
