This is just an astonishing 20-minute film by Hiroshi Sumi. An homage and loving look back at the earliest days of Industrial Light and Magic. I don’t want to say much more than that lest I spoil the wonder of it. I don’t know why anyone would exert so much effort to make something like this but I’m so inordinately delighted that Sumi did. It speaks to the power of obsession.
After you watch it, take a look at this tweet from Sumi, and this prototype rendering from three years ago.
Just amazing. So much obvious love. (Via Todd Vaziri.)
