You want old school computer graphics? You think you did it tough on a commodore 64 or ZX Spectrum? Check out how long and painstaking the process was to create the trench run graphics as seen in Star Wars.

From the youtube video:
"(1977) The computer graphics for the first Star Wars film were created by Larry Cuba in the 1970s at the Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL) (at the time known as the Circle Graphics Habitat) at the University of Illinois at Chicago." Site link to current lab : http://www.evl.uic.edu
