Silicon Run has been producing award winning educational films about semiconductor and computer manufacturing since 1986, with its two most recent films exploring the exciting fields of Nanotechnology and MEMS (microelectromechanical systems). Each film features live industrial footage and illustrates technical processes using vivid animations and graphics. All Silicon Run titles are available on DVD and by streaming. »read more
About Silicon Run Productions
Our Films
Silicon Run’s nine award winning educational films explore the fascinating process of semiconductor manufacturing from A to Z. Shot on site and illustrated with rich animations, Silicon Run’s films provide in-depth studies of such topics as: MEMS (microelectromechanical systems), Nanotechnology, Lithography, Implantation, Deposition, Etch, front end and back end semiconductor manufacturing (Silicon Run I and II) and Silicon Run LITE (an overview film useful as an intro).

Professors at the University of Arizona will show several of the Silicon Run films during a course on Microelectronics Manufacturing and the Environment. The series offers students an excellent overview of semi-conductor manufacturing processes with informative video shots.Sally Clement

Good films. I use them for a couple of electronics courses and weave them into workshops. We also use Silicon Run I through our Office of Public Instruction.Joe Barnhart
