Kodak Digital Developments for Lucasfilm
Kodak scanning technology is used in the Thomson Spirit DataCine, used for transferring most films for digital release. We make the light source and scanning head.
Kodak provided film scanning technology to George Lucas' Industrial Light and Magic in the early 1980's. This technology was used for doing the first digital EFX in movies like "Willow", "Young Sherlock Holmes" and "Die Hard 2":
