Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) is an American Academy Award-winning motion picture visual effects company that was founded in May 1975 by George Lucas. It is a division of the film production company, Lucasfilm, which Lucas founded, and was created when Lucas began production of the film Star Wars. ILM originated in Van Nuys, California, then later moved to San Rafael in 1978, and since 2005 it has been based at the Letterman Digital Arts Center in the Presidio of San Francisco. Lynwen Brennan, who joined the company in 1999, currently serves as ILM's President and General Manager. In 2012, The Walt Disney Company acquired ILM as part of its purchase of Lucasfilm.
Lucas wanted his 1977 film Star Wars to include visual effects that had never been seen on film before. After discovering that the in-house effects department at 20th Century Fox was no longer operational, Lucas approached Douglas Trumbull, famous for the effects on 2001: A Space Odyssey. Trumbull declined as he was already committed to working on Steven Spielberg's film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, but suggested his assistant John Dykstra to Lucas. Dykstra brought together a small team of college students, artists and engineers, and set them up in a warehouse in Van Nuys, California. Lucas named the group Industrial Light & Magic, who became the Special Visual Effects department on Star Wars. Alongside Dykstra, other leading members of the original ILM team were Ken Ralston, Richard Edlund, Dennis Muren, Joe Johnston, Phil Tippett, Steve Gawley, Lorne Peterson and Paul Huston.

A white male who is so white that he cannot be detected in the presence of strong light. His skin has no pigmentation and he will never tan, not even on the surface of the Sun.He is the complete opposite of a shadow master. While shadow masters have accepted their powers and blended into society, a light master will very rarely leave his natural habitat, typically a basement, an attic or any reclusive space. In many cases, their social skills are not very developed,and they must seek refuge elsewhere, like Runescape for example. This is why there are no "light master" groups. They travel and live alone, barely surviving each day as freaks of society. They are very aggressive and defensive about their skin tone, usually explaining that it's not their fault. They are just trying to fool you, and putting them in a corner will trigger their defense mechanism(disappearing into the light).They will usually retreat and not be seen for periods of months at a time. It is not dangerous to fuck with them, unless he is acquainted with a shadow master. In that case, do not fuck with them, unless you too are part of a powerful shadow master's entourage. In that case, feel free to do whatever the fuck you please.
Do not confuse them with albinos, who suffer from a sad illness. Light masters are very deceitful and evil,and will do anything to reach their ultimate goal of turning all shadow masters into light masters, which would spell the end of the world as we know it. At the moment, shadow masters are ironically their rulers, and it is not likely that the situation will change soon, unless we see the appearance of a super light master, who would obliterate the mighty shadow tribe. The rest is still unwritten...

A light saber is when you pour the liquid from a glow stick onto your dick and go to a dark room to helicopter it around
