George Lucas: The Story > The Technology

Charlie Rose interviewed George Lucas. [Watch here.]

I love George Lucas’s statement about technology: “You’re telling a story using tools, you’re not using tools to tell a story.”

(Maybe this is why the Star Wars prequels went awry?)

Natalie said to me (and I’m paraphrasing), “If it was just about the technology, these movies would only have an impact for a few years, because they would become obsolete as technology advances. It’s the stories that resonate with us, that make them last.”

What a great reminder as embark on creating new work for the new year.
