ILM and Science Channel joined together to celebrate ILM’s 40th Anniversary at Comic-Con International in San Diego this year. Industrial Light & Magic Visual Effects Supervisor, Jeff White, legendary ILM model maker, Lorne Peterson, and model maker and digital artist, John Goodson, spoke on a sold-out panel delving into the company’s 40-year history and how films the company has contributed to have inspired and been inspired by actual science. From astronauts to paleontologists, the Science Channel’s one-hour program covers a wide range of topics that include 3D laser scanning, artificial limbs, holograms, and of course, hoverboards.
