  • Skywalker Sound is the sound effects, sound editing, sound design and music recording division of George Lucas' Lucas Digital motion picture group. Its main facilities are located in Lucas Valley, near Nicasio, California. It began as Sprocket Systems in San Anselmo, California and changed names soon after the release of Spaceballs. While located in San Anselmo, Sprocket Systems came into contact with the local residents from time to time. For instance, Kentfield resident Pat Walsh, "discovered" while shopping at a camera store, provided the voice for E.T.. During the sound recording of Raiders of the Lost Ark, Harrison Ford could be spied practicing his bullwhip technique in the parking lot. Sprocket Systems moved from San Anselmo following a disastrous flood in January 1982. Its staff of Sound Designers and Re-Recording Mixers have either won or been nominated for the Best Sound or Best Sound Editing Academy Award every year since Star Wars in 1977 (in that year Ben Burtt was given a Special Achievement Award, since the category for Sound Editing had not yet been established). Dubbing facilities, editorial services and scoring stages are all located in a central "Tech Building", with dining areas and living quarters in the vicinity but separate from the main work area.
  • Skywalker Sound est une société de post-production sonore, division de Lucasfilm. Son nom vient d'un des personnages principaux de Star Wars, Luke Skywalker. Elle est basée dans le Skywalker Ranch de George Lucas. Skywalker Sound a complètement remasterisé la bande son des 3 premiers épisodes (c'est-à-dire les épisodes IV, V et VI) de Star Wars, en 1996-1998.
  • La Skywalker Sound è una delle più famose aziende specializzate in effetti sonori, montaggio del sonoro e delle musiche e progettazione di nuovi formati audio, parte della Lucas Digital, a sua volta parte della LucasFilm di George Lucas. L'azienda è situata nella "Lucas Valley", vicino Nicasio, California. Il suo staff di sound designer e sound editing ha vinto, oltre ad aver ricevuto anche alcune nominations, più volte i premi Oscar per il "miglior sonoro" e per il "miglior montaggio del sonoro", a partire dalla saga di "Guerre Stellari", per la quale venne appositamente creata, come anche la Industrial Light & Magic, nel 1977. In quell'anno, Ben Burtt vinse uno speciale Oscar per i risultati raggiunti, dal momento che ancora non era stata creata la categoria per il "miglior montaggio del sonoro". La sede dell'azienda è un modello di tecnologia avanzata e sofisticati sistemi di integrazione. Uffici, servizi editoriali, gli studi di registrazione e di elaborazione sono tutti contenuti dal centrale "Tech Building", che comprende anche grandi hall per ricevimenti, congressi, riunioni e cene, ed alcuni appartamenti abitati dai dipendenti, situati, però, leggermente staccati dall'area di lavoro. L'ambiente di lavoro è dunque ideale, ma l'enorme competenza, il continuo aggiornamento tecnologico e la qualità dei prodotti e servizi della Skywalker Sound sono anche e soprattutto il frutto del personale altamente specializzato, tra i quali vanno ricordati alcuni supervisori come: Gary Rydstrom - sound designer: "Jurassic Park", "Terminator 2" Chris Boyes - sound designer: "Pearl Harbor", trilogia cinematografica de "Il Signore degli Anelli" Richard Hymns - sound editor: "Salvate il soldato Ryan", "Hulk"
  • スカイウォーカー・サウンドは、アメリカの映像製作会社であるルーカスフィルムの1部門。主に映画やテレビ番組の音響制作を行う。名前の由来はもちろん、スター・ウォーズシリーズの主役であるアナキン／ルーク・スカイウォーカー親子である。 カリフォルニア州マリンカウンティにあるスカイウォーカーランチ内に多数のスタジオを持っている。スタジオは全てTHX仕様。扱う音源はライブラリー化されており、自由に使用することができる。このライブラリーがスカイウォーカーサウンドの最大の強みとなっている。アカデミー賞では、毎年のように音響賞を受賞している。 近年、「踊る大捜査線BAYSIDE SHAKEDOWN 2」の音響制作をきっかけに、フジテレビとの提携、同社とProduction I. Gによる合弁の有限責任事業組合FILM LLPの拠点である「FIX STUDIO」と、スカイ・ウォーカー・ランチ間（日米間）に大容量の専用ネットワーク（スカイ・リンク）が確立されており、日米間での並行作業を可能にしている。
