"Live-action Star Wars television has found success in part because the production value is often just as high as on the cinematic side of the franchise. Episodes of The Mandalorian, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and The Acolyte often have the movie-like feel of Star Wars... but sometimes they cut corners, and that becomes evident in the final product. Ahsoka, the spinoff focused on former Jedi Ahsoka Tano, was criticized for looking flat and gray, having apparently overused the Volume and other CGI tools."
"While speaking at Scotland Comic-Con (via ), Rosario Dawson said Ahsoka Season 2 will have a smaller budget than Season 1, which presumably means an even less dynamic production. Season 2 is actually making several changes, as production has moved from California to the United Kingdom, and had previously been described as using a " variety " of filming techniques."
Live-action Star Wars television often matches cinematic production values but sometimes cuts corners that show in the final product. Ahsoka Season 1 drew criticism for flat, gray visuals and heavy reliance on the Volume and CGI. Season 2 will operate with a smaller budget and has moved production from California to the United Kingdom while planning to use a variety of filming techniques. Production has added crew experienced with Rogue One cinematography to refresh the show's look. The combination of tighter funds and new visual approaches could either worsen CGI reliance or enable more careful, craft-driven aesthetics.
