    The world's largest exhibition and conference of computer graphics Siggraph 2003 has opened in San Diego, California.

    It is a huge gathering of programmers and games enthusiasts from around the world.

    The main focus of the conference is a series of discussions and seminars on the minutiae of games and graphics design, like how to make a ball look rounder on the computer screen.

    In the film, a pirate ship is crewed by a team of computer-generated skeletons.
