Join Dr. Alla Gadassik, Dr. Jordan Gowanlock, and the Visual Effects Society for a public screening series dedicated to visual and special effects. Every other Wednesday this fall, we select a film from the Visual Effects Society’s “Top 70 Most Influential Visual Effects Films of All Time.” Each screening is accompanied by an introduction and audience discussion after the film.

Jurassic Park (1993)

A Steven Spielberg classic and one of the films that sold Hollywood on the idea of computer graphics. Industrial Light & Magic uses a combination of animatronics, puppetry, and computer-generated creatures to deliver a spectacle that transformed the industry. The screening will be preceded by an introduction from visual effects workers with first-hand knowledge about the film’s production and will be followed by a discussion.
