How Pixar Changed 3D Animation With Every Movie (Part 1, 'Toy Story' to 'Cars 2') | Movies Insider

Amazing ❤❤❤❤

Waiting for the day when Pixar innovates a way to get rid of your repugnant vocal fry.

Cool

the world needs more movies and companies like this

thank you everyone that made this from Pixar

Jason Bourne? You mean James Bond right?

I agree they're top class. But, the way they presented here, make it look like Pixar invented Ray Tracing.

That's cool and all but what about Mr. Incredible's bulge?

And they're still not unionized.

Advancement is good but but Old is Gold !

If someone were to ask me what Pixar movie revolutionized the way they could simulate water I have to admit Cars 2 would not be my first answer.

How about the handlebars?

Toy Story used clay models as reference to the animation, which were digitally scanned with rotoscope technique and later animated. Thus, cannot be considered the first ever 3D animated feature movie.

The Brazilian movie "Cassiopeia" takes the title. Despite of being released 3 months after Toy Story, it is fully modeled and animated by computers. By the way it's a fantastic movie and has a great screenplay, but suffered with lack of money on production and boycott by theaters and big studios, Pixar included.

We need pixar opening a game studio so we can see this renders there.

the fact they were able to use ray tracing on hardware that doesnt support ray tracing when these movies were made is very impressive.

I'm not sure I learned anything about animation, but the narrator's voice is a textbook example of vocal fry.

I swear every single pixar film is just a glorified tech demo

It's just a cartoon

Is it? You do it then!

James Bond not Jason Bourne lol; James Bond is the spy, Jason Bourne is the ex assassin just trying to survive

THATS NOT STAR WARS: REVENGE OF THE SITH! It is Star Wars: The Phantom Menace

Who heard "Ratatouille" and immediately thought "Raccacoonie"? 🥯

Toy Story was done with raytracing. The technology has been around since the early 80s. But what you mean with the reflections is multiple bounce reflection raytracing

this makes me realise how beatiful the animation is

actually never thought of this but now that I see it wow

i never even noticed any of those details when i watched the movies

These guys had to make so many 3D models for a single movie or a single scene or even for like a few frames and me who can't do any thing properly in blender 😭😭😭😭😭

It’s kind of funny 😂 I’m currently making ratatouille 😂 and this video is talking about ratatouille 😂

Steve Jobs is rally the biggest genius of this century

I hate this comentators voice..cant you bring back the guy voice?

I'm sorry, but I had raytracing in 3D Studio Max R3 long before Cars came out.

Looks like Soldier TF2

The incredible thing about 3D animation is that, unlike 2D animation, there's actually more space that exists beyond what you see on the screen. For example, they mentioned "Up" was able to handle 10,297 balloons. But surely not every single balloon is shown on screen at the same time. What this means is that there are other balloons hidden behind the balloons you see on screen that are just as real and dynamic and handled by the algorithm, but the audience simply can't see them.

If "Up" was 2D, those hidden balloons simply wouldn't exist at all because you can't draw an object behind another object. In 2D, you simply draw the object at the forefront and let the audience use their imagination to pretend there's more stuff behind it.

I guess what I'm trying to say is, 3D animation is literally more REAL than 2D animation because there's actually more space - a bigger world - that exists which the audience is unable to see. Just like how I know Japan exists even though I can't see it right now because I'm in America.

I've just left my teaching job teaching animation - This video would have made my life 100x easier when talking about 3D animation

One of my favorite Pixar animator tidbits is how that one shot with Mr. Incredible poking his finger through a hole in his old supersuit apparently broke everything at the time.

Crazy how integral this company famous for children’s animation revolutionized modern effects, and in turn, moviemaking. Early on, the techniques listed are things I wouldn’t even call features in even a simple, free 3D package. They’re so essential, they’re just foundational necessities. Render engines, subsurf, shaders? Pixar rocks.

The Orginal Iron Man wasn't a Disney film they bought marvel in 2009, Iron Man came out in 2008

I was waiting for the clothes one, though I thought it’d be a Disney Princess movie lol, it’s exciting either way

God this repeats so much its unwatchable.

Camera movements were 3D waaaaay before Wall-E. I don’t know where you got that “they were all 2D until that point” from.

What they did in Wall-E was that they wanted to simulate how real cameras and lenses work (how they move, how they focus, how they react to light) with a lot finer details than before.

Pixar were at the frontier of CGI with their shorts, but they didn't invent 1/2 of these techniques, like ray tracing/subdivision/subsurface scattering, etc - it's just they were first in a fully 3d animated feature. Not the same. Pixar founders like Edwin Catmull might have invented subdivision in 1978, and he worked for ILM after, but this is way way before Pixar even existed.

Hang on, is that music from the soundtrack of Sim City 4?

late 90s early 2000s kids me being 02 were so lucky we grew up in an era like this full of the highest level of innovation.
