72 Years of Evolution in Animation: From Hand-Painted Cels to Computer-Assisted Creativity Walt Disney’s “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" and Pixar's "WALL-E" When I visited Pixar Studios in May of 2009 as part of my work on the Sony Electronics digital cinema workflow project, I was amazed to learn about the lengthy creative processes that were behind Pixar’s unprecedented box office successes. WALL-E was featured with life-sized models in the Pixar lobby. Films like Toy Story, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, WALL-E, and Up not only dominated the box office but also garnered critical acclaim and numerous awards. This article linked here compares the modern cinematic animation achievements of Pixar's "WALL-E" (2008) to another historical “first” – Walt Disney’s “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" (1937) and allows us to see that regardless of changes in technology, many parts of the creative process remain the same, and still deeply involve human creativity and artistry to tell a compelling story. 72 Years of Evolution in Animation: From Hand-Painted Cels to Computer-Assisted Creativity https://lnkd.in/g9GsfMtY #AnimationEvolution #PixarvsDisney #CreativeTechnology #DigitalAnimation #Storytelling #AnimationHistory #FilmInnovation #CreativeProcess #AnimationArtistry #TechInFilm
