Overview
Stop-motion genius Phil Tippett feels like he’s gone extinct when CG unexpectedly takes center stage in Jurassic Park. The watershed moment convinces George Lucas to return to his long-planned Star Wars prequel trilogy and push the technology even further. As digital filmmaking continues to grow and evolve, The Volume proves that the spirit of innovation remains alive and well at ILM.

00:22:09 um, "I need it to run." Like that was going to be something easy.
00:24:50 When that transition happened,

00:29:46 I was excited to go back and go to work
00:32:08 And it got to be a little overwhelming 'cause just as you're
00:34:27 All right. Let me see what I can do.
00:36:48 The projector stores images electronically,
00:39:28 It's like Thomas Edison, like...
00:42:09 it's something I could touch, and that's part of it.
00:44:37 Sometimes you want it to be, this is going to be
00:46:49 as the camera moves inside of this volume,
00:49:00 What's happening with something like the volume

00:54:24 that we do at the company, both in terms of art and science.
00:57:11 I'll never graduate from ILM and I'll never leave the halls of ILM.
00:59:41 and we just went out and we just started in the backyard, that moment.
