ILM Shows Off AI at TED

By Adam Pawlus — Saturday, May 17, 2025

Industrial Light and Magic was once the best - also only - game in town for your big-budget Hollywood effects. Some studios did a pretty good in-house job, and many did a job that might be good enough, but in the 20th century all your best world-changing stuff came out of George Lucas' companies.

In the 1990s "CGI" was a pejorative, with some movies blending practical and digital elements (like Jurassic Park) in a way that made everybody happy. CG spaceships were largely pretty good and adopted quickly, greatly reducing the need for model makers in some cases. Miniature sets would still be composited in a lot of shots, and a lot of other things would still be made by hand while we saw a big transition to increasingly digital effects.
