The New Force at Lucasfilm
conq writes "BusinessWeek has an interview with the heads of George Lucas' gaming and movie divisions, and discusses with them how they are getting closer and closer to integration. From the article: 'Pre-visualization, which is a big thing that George has been pushing lately. It's a tool that directors would use to quickly mock up the ideas of a story and see what's going to work. It's really like building up a preview of a movie in a video game world. Instead of using static story boards, you can really just get in and create 3D content and camera moves directly. It's the best example of the kind of collaboration we've got going on.'"
Definitely seems useful for making movies, but I don't see how George Lucas could use this. Isn't he in the business of shattering childhood memories??
It helps tremendously. Just look at how Episode I, II and III turned out.
Everytime they asked me to do something I didn't want to, I'd be unable to resist saying "But I wanted to go to Tosche Station to pick up some power converters."
Just imagine how awesome this first post would have been if rendered in a 3D environment!

Yoda: The bomb has somebody set up us, hmmm...
A marketable purple gay alien chipmunk: We get signal!
Reincarnated Darth Vader: AYBABTU.
