Yes, hard to believe for some who born after the 1990's, but there was a time when movies did not employ the use of computer generated effects. One blockbuster movie however, showed what could be done, and it caused a paradigm shift in the moving making industry. The film was 1993's Jurassic Park and this is the story of how it all came to be.

Sony 'Imageworks', the Oscar winning visual effects company behind titles like this seasons The Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Edge of Tomorrow has announced that it is moving its facilities to Vancouver Canada. That's 270 jobs that are leaving California because of the increasing amount of money it costs to stay in the troubled state. For years, the sky rocketing expenses of making films in Hollywood's native-land have increased, pushing out production and facilities to cheaper locations.

Star Wars Original Trilogy, Visual Effects TV Special
 |
| Star Wars 1977 |
Starting off with 2001: A Space Odyssey this film features original story broads from Star Wars, and insights into other films like Close Encounters, Tron, the Last Star Fighter, and more.
The VHS quality is rough at best, and there are other documentaries about these films that give you more insight, but this is a great retro blast from the past.
