Though Lege has long since passed, Bard keeps his memory and story alive.<\/p>\n<p>Holograms as seen in the Star Wars universe don\u2019t really exist in our world. Disney managed to replicate the effect with Rey inside Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, but Lege\u2019s hologram outdoors presented a bigger challenge.<\/p>\n<p>As Imagineer Hunter explains in the video below, the Tohan Lege hologram is created thanks to a haze screen (an invisible screen of mist) and a \u201cpop up\u201d \u2014\u00a0an eight-foot curved projection screen that raises in two seconds. Combined with perfectly timed lighting and projection, these elements make a flickering image of Lege on the balcony above guests.<\/p>\n<p>Have you seen Tohan Lege tell stories at Star Wars: Galaxy\u2019s Edge?
