Cool Videos: Check out ILM’s impressive VFX reel for The Force Awakens

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

Although J.J. Abrams' STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS was praised for bringing practical effects and real-life sets back to the STAR WARS universe, the film still featured quite a large amount of effects which were crafted digitally. George Lucas' Industrial Light & Magic has been involved with the STAR WARS universe since day one so it's only natural that they would return to push the limits in THE FORCE AWAKENS. ILM has now released a VFX reel which shows off their impressive work on the film, and although these VFX reels tend to be rather similar (peel back the layers!) it's still fun to see just how much, or how little, of the set was created by ILM.
