Truly cool Industrial Light & Magic, Pirates of the Caribbean website

This is one website worth checking out. Industrial Light & Magic has put together a website that highlights some of the digital animation techniques that they used on Pirates of the Caribbean 2 - Dead Man's Chest.

I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, much more than the first!, the site draws on the amazing visuals that were created for the movie and explains how some things were done using very imaginative techniques.

The site is a very cool interactive and entertaining experience. I'm pretty sure that this site will only work on a broad band connection. Follow the link below
