While Star Wars has received its share of criticismparticularly for George Lucas’ overreliance on digital and visual effects, it’s impossible to overstate how much the franchise and ILM’s work has influenced modern-day cinema.

One of the most impressive contributions to the world of visual effects is ILM’s recent groundbreaking virtual filmmaking environment ‘The Volume,’ which is used on The Mandalorian to create add-in backgrounds using giant LED screens. This advanced technology allows for more detailed and realistic backgrounds, and may one day replace the use of the green screen and chroma key techniques, which have been the standard for years.
