The Lucasfilm Speaker Series is an internal forum where we host people who inspire us -- be they filmmakers, gamemakers, business leaders, artists, technologists, or rocket scientists. Going forward, we will try to share as many of these talks as we can here on this channel; they are just too good to keep to ourselves.
