Star Trek 2

In 1982, ILM and the Lucasfilm Computer Division--which had been set up in 1979--co-created what was called the "Genesis Effect" for "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan." According to ILM, this was the first-ever entirely CGI sequence in a feature film. Just four years later, Lucas sold the part of the computer division that worked on developing rendering software. That group later became a company that you might have heard of: Pixar Animation Studios.
