Following in the footsteps
of countless comic book tales immortalized by Hollywood, Spider-Man
distinguishes itself as one of the most memorable. Director Sam Raimi
brought the popular teen crime fighter to life with help from visual effects
supervisor John
Dykstra and physical effects supervisor John Frazier, whose efforts
enabled actor Toby Maguire to perform such superhuman feats as web-slinging
and wall crawling. Though live mechanical means were used whenever
possible, leaps into a more fantastic realm were accomplished by Sony
Pictures Imageworks.

In Attack of the Clones,
the promised second prequel to the Star Wars saga, George
Lucas once again called upon the artists at Industrial
Light & Magic to push the technological envelope in the service
of his vision. The result is a film in which nearly every frame bursts
with manufactured imagery, captured entirely on high-definition digital
video – a first for the motion picture industry. Among the accomplishments
were an all-new CG Yoda, visually stunning miniature and digital environments,
and thrilling action sequences involving armies of battle droids.
