To answer a few questions...
We built some sets with playsets, Blockade Runner walls were made with vaccuform plastic, several walls were printed on paper by taking stills from the films, removing characters in photoshop and isolating each wall and blowing it up to scale.
Lots of "making of" info on our website:

Wow. Hahaha. This is impressive, to say the least. It takes a true fan, (and someone with too much free time, haha just kidding), to pull something like this off. Very well done. It's definitely being added to my favorites list.

How did you make all of the diaramas'?

@TheAlcojo94 Different ways: mixed playsets. Rebel blockade runner walls were vaccu-form. Imperial meeting room @ :47 was hand carved paperboard (by Kellfire Bray). @ 1:20 & 1:55 printed stills from the film after photoshopping out characters & re-constructed the sets as best as I could, including "functional" blast-doors @2:09. For the Rebel control room @ 2:16 I took a plastic CD case, made light-catching scratches with a razor, colored the scratches with blue marker and lit it from behind.

how do you make the haed move with out hand moving them?

@eclipse1a I had to destroy a Luke Skywalker figure in order to make a "puppet" out of it. Removed the legs and waist to allow access to the neck and head from inside the torso. Next I heated up the tip of an awl to insert up into the neck from underneath, which, when cooled, allowed me to turn the head. This technique will not work with most figures they make now, which mostly have ball jointed heads, but this Luke figure has the head and neck connected as one piece. Does that make sense?
