A last minute change has appeared on the HDNet schedule for tonight at 7PM EDT: The Story of Computer Graphics It's suppose to include lots of CG clips, and film footage from movies like TRON, Toy Story, Terminator 2, Antz, etc.

Originally posted by Chris Williams Don't blame me...I posted a link to a page with an overview of the program that featured a black & white picture of Gene ***** of MIT showing someone a very old computer. Sorry that it wasn't exactly what you expected, but "story" usually means "something that happened a long time ago". I remember all this stuff as well, have met a number of these folks and was overjoyed to see it again. Perhaps someone can air the most recent SIGGRAPH Electronic Theater reel. That was almost entirely presented in HD. |
