Powered by AMD Athlon MP? Processors, Pre-visualization lab workstations guide Lucas? team from first shot to post-production

George Lucas has earned an enduring place in the annals of Hollywood filmmaking. He has written and directed, or produced three of the top 10 grossing Hollywood films of all time, and created a following among "Star Wars" fans that, 25 years after the first "Star Wars" movie, is as passionate as ever.

Yet Lucas? technical contributions to the film arts may leave an even greater legacy than the unforgettable films he has created. Lucas himself is known as a man who writes his film scripts longhand with a pencil. Yet in the career-long struggle to transfer his wildly imaginative mythical vision to the screen, Lucas has had a very large hand in redefining how movies are made.

"AMD processor-powered workstations have become an unequalled addition to our pre-visualization work," said Rick McCallum, producer of the motion picture Star Wars: Episode II. "The nature of digital motion pictures requires hardware tools that allow our pre-production team to meld digital and 'real' worlds in a time- and cost-effective manner."
