The feature animation division
of Walt Disney Studios created an all-new digital facility to support its
first computer generated film, Dinosaur, about an orphaned iguanodon
whose gentle ways come in conflict with his species' baser instincts. Contributing
to the movie's novel look were deftly orchestrated visual effects that
blended CG characters with digitally processed live-action backgrounds.

A real-life tragedy recounted
in the book The Perfect Storm provided the basis for director Wolfgang
Petersen's movie of the same name, about a swordfishing boat lost at sea
during a storm of unprecedented ferocity. Raising the bar on CG water effects,
Industrial Light
& Magic produced the digitally engineered tempest, designed to
work in concert with large-scale stage effects by John Frazier.

Aardman Animations, of
Wallace
and Gromit renown, graduated to feature status with Chicken Run,
a sendup of The Great Escape, in which a farm's resident chickens
hatch a desperate plan to escape being turned into pot pies. Though the
comedy employed Aardman's signature stop-motion puppeteering, it also benefited
from a range of digital contributions by Computer
Film Company.
