If you can imagine it, it can be done with
computer graphics.
Obviously, Hollywood has caught on to this. Each summer,
we are amazed by state-of-the-art special effects. More
and more of these images exist only within the memory of
a computer. There seems to be no end in sight for this trend.
But we're not just talking about big budget mega-productions.
There are music videos, and spinning logos on the 6 o'clock
news. Computer graphics is now as much a part of the entertainment
industry as stunt men and makeup.

important roles in the field of computer graphics.
- Leaders in quality and artistry
- Not slaves to conceptual purity
- Big budgets and tight schedules
- Constant reminder that there is more to
CG than technology.
- How did they do that?
- They define our expectations.
