Pixar/Disney “Looking Back at Almost 30 Years of Computer Animation for the Movies” MEETING DATE: Thursday, April 25, 2024 6:45PM - 8:45PM (Zoom meeting room opens at 6:45 PM; Meeting starts at 7 PM) via Zoom virtual meeting. |
Pixar has been at the forefront of 3D computer animation innovations for nearly 30 years, developing new methods and technologies with nearly every new project. We take a look back at the ways Disney/Pixar has evolved over time. The studio has made advancements in how characters move, going from robotic motion in 1995’s “Toy Story” to characters who can intricately play music in “Coco” and “Soul.” In the early Pixar days, human characters were hidden in the shadows, but breakthroughs in movies like “The Incredibles” and “Brave” paved the way for more believable human characters. And clothes, which were once stiff, took center stage in “Onward” thanks to innovations from movies like “Monsters Inc.”
