Pixar Vs. Dreamworks This material is exclusively prepared for Ringle Customers This material is exclusively prepared for Ringle Customers Material for your English session [Summary in English] I. Introduction: a divergent Pixar and DreamWorks Pixar vs. DreamWorks Pixar, the creators of the world’s first 3D animated film, Toy Story, and DreamWorks, the creators of beloved Shrek and Kung Fu Panda, seem to be on diverging paths. Which Animation do you like most? ● Pixar collaborated with Disney to produce the popular film Frozen (2013) and has since continued its success streak with such movies as Inside-Out (2015) and Finding Dory (2016). ● DreamWorks’ Shrek and Kung Fu Panda series have fallen flat, and the studio has failed to produce box office hits in a while. What is the cause of this divergence? What are the fundamental elements of the animation industry? II. Pixar: a studio that focuses on perfecting the fundamentals of animation Pixar leaves Lucasfilm and grows in the field of animation film production under Steve Jobs. ● Pixar began in 1979 as the Graphics Group, a part of the Lucasfilm computer division. ● Steve Jobs, who had recently been fired from Apple, bought the Graphics Group for $5M, seeing tremendous potential in the group’s graphic-friendly, high-tech computer hardware/software. ● Jobs invested a total of $50M, making him the majority shareholder. He understood Pixar’s potential in the growing animation department and decided to sell the company’s hardware division in 1990. ● In 1995, Pixar released its first animated film Toy Story, which went on to gross more than $362M worldwide. Since then, Pixar has produced only one film per year, totaling 17 films including its most recent, Finding Dory. ● Walt Disney acquired Pixar in 2006 for $7.8B in an all-stock deal. Steve Jobs, who owned 50.1% of Pixar’s shares, automatically became the largest individual shareholder of Walt Disney at 7%. Pixar’s philosophy is to produce pieces that have creative and touching storylines, and the studio focuses on creating films that are faithful to the essence of the studio. ● Pixar’s philosophy: Pixar reflects Steve Job’s obsessive pursuit of integrating storytelling, design, and tech into an innovative idea. ● Pixar’s creative cycle: Pixar has only released one film per year, each taking an average of four years to complete. ● Pixar’s creative direction: Pixar focuses on original material rather than sequels of existing movies (Toy Story, Cars, and Finding Nemo have been Pixar’s only movie series so far).

The Pixar Way [Summary in Korean] When asked the question, “What kind of animation do you want to make?” Pixar can confidently explain its vision and how it has been incorporated into the production process. I. Intro: 서로 다른 길을 걸어가는 Pixar, 그리고 DreamWorks ● Steve Jobs has infused his desire to “create things that will change people’s lives” into Pixar. ● Pixar steadfastly focuses on its sole tenet, that “quality is the best business plan.” Thus Pixar’s products 전 세계 최초의 3D 애니메이션 Toy Story 를 제작한 Pixar, 그리고 슈렉/쿵푸팬더로 전 세계를 웃음바다로 are able to speak on behalf of the company’s value. 만든 DreamWorks 가 최근 전혀 다른 행보를 이어가고 있습니다. ● It takes 4 to 5 years to finish one Pixar film. The animators and filmmakers at Pixar will not cease to fine tune their creations. • Pixar: Disney 함께 Frozen (2013)이라는 엄청난 대작을 선보였을 뿐 아니라, 매년 Inside-out (2015), Finding Dory (2016) 등 히트작을 내놓으며 100% 흥행 불패 신화를 이어가는 중 In addition, rather than relying on any one individual (e.g. Steve Jobs) for creative vision, Pixar • DreamWorks: 슈렉, 쿵푸팬더 외 흥행작을 선보이지 못하고 있으며, 슈렉, 쿵푸팬더 시리즈도 더는 encourages teamwork to realize its creative visions. 과거의 인기를 얻지 못하는 중 ● Teamwork: Pixar will go at lengths to raise the quality of its movies. Pixar’s managerial team encourages cooperation and willingly listens to employees’ ideas. ● Communication: Employees constantly communicate their ideas and their work’s progress, endorsing a 무엇이 두 애니메이션 회사의 차이를 만들어 낸 것일까요? 더불어 애니메이션 산업의 본질은 무엇일까요? culture of feedback (Pixar calls this process “plusing”). ● Freedom: Rather than assigning tasks and evaluating performance, each member is given a mission and a challenge, compelling them to think on their feet and maximize their potential.

  • Deliver Us to Cinema: the Prince of Egypt and Cinematic Depictions of Religious Texts
    Deliver Us to Cinema: The Prince of Egypt and Cinematic Depictions of Religious Texts Kadii Lott Introduction There is a pervasive Hollywood culture of appropriating and commodifying biblical concepts and imagery into films that do not explicitly address the Abrahamic belief systems that consider the Old and New Testaments as sacred texts. Many such films received mixed reviews. Christian and Jewish groups have heavily criticised particular adaptations of scriptural stories, including Life of Brian,1 The Last Temptation of Christ,2 The Passion of Christ,3 and Noah,4 for their blasphemous or ill-intentioned treatment of biblical figures. Despite the protectiveness of religious people Kadii Lott received First Class Honours in Studies in Religion at the University of Sydney in 2020. 1 The 1979 religious satire reimagined the fictional life of a man named Brian who gets mistaken for Jesus. The film was considered blasphemous by some Christians who protested against the release and the film was banned in many countries upon its release, including in Ireland and Norway. See Ben Dowell, ‘BBC to dramatise unholy row over Monty Python’s Life of Brian’, The Guardian (21 June 2011), https://www.theguardian.com/media/ 2011/jun/21/bbc-monty-python-life-of-brian. Accessed 13 July 2020. 2 Scorsese’s depicted Jesus Christ dealing with worldly temptations like everyone else. This caused outrage amongst some Christian groups, even leading to an incident in Paris where a theatre showing the film was set on fire.

  • Dissecting the Sundance Curse: Exploring Discrepancies Between Film Reviews by Professional and Amateur Critics
    Dissecting the Sundance Curse by Lucas Buck — 27 Dissecting the Sundance Curse: Exploring Discrepancies Between Film Reviews by Professional and Amateur Critics Lucas Buck Cinema and Television Arts Elon University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in an undergraduate senior capstone course in communications Abstract There has been a growing discrepancy between professional-critic film reviews and audience-originating film reviews. In fact, these occurrences have become so routine, industry writers often reference a “Sundance Curse” – when a buzzy festival-circuit film bombs with the general public, commercially or critically. This study examines this inconsistency to determine which aspects of a film tend to draw the most attention from each respective type of critic. A qualitative content analysis of 20 individual reviews was conducted to determine which elements present in a film garnered the most attention from the reviewers, and whether that attention was positive, negative or neutral. This study indicates that audience film reviewers overwhelmingly focused on the “emotional response” gleaned from their movie-going experience above all other aspects of the film, whereas professional critics focused attention to more tangible – above-the-line contributions, such as direction, performances, and writing. I. Introduction As one of the most talked-about films of the 2018 Sundance Film Festival, theA24-released Hereditary became the breakout horror film of the year, opening in nearly 3,000 theaters and raking in $79 million while produced on just a $10 million production budget (Cusumano, 2018). Despite the obvious box office success, Hereditary’s word-of-mouth power seemed to have mostly been driven by glowing critical reviews, rather than by the opinion of audiences who paid to see the film.

  • The Walt Disney Company and Pixar Inc.: to Acquire Or Not to Acquire?
    9-709-462 REV: JANUARY 15, 201 0 J U A N A L C Á CER DAVID COLLIS M A R Y F U R E Y The Walt Disney Company and Pixar Inc.: To Acquire or Not to Acquire? In November 2005, Robert Iger, the newly appointed CEO of the Walt Disney Company, eagerly awaited the box office results of Chicken Little, the company’s second computer-generated (CG) feature film. He knew that, for Disney as a whole to be successful, he had to get the animation business right, particularly the new CG technology that was rapidly supplanting hand-drawn animation.1 Yet the company had been reliant on a contract with animation studio Pixar, which had produced hits such as Toy Story and Finding Nemo, for most of its recent animated film revenue. And the co-production agreement, brokered during the tenure of his predecessor, Michael Eisner, was set to expire in 2006 after the release of Cars, the fifth movie in the five-picture deal. Unfortunately, contract renewal negotiations between Steve Jobs, CEO of Pixar, and Eisner had broken down in 2004 amid reports of personal conflict. When he assumed his new role, Iger reopened the lines of communication between the companies. In fact, he had just struck a deal with Jobs to sell Disney- owned, ABC-produced television shows—such as “Desperate Housewives”—through Apple’s iTunes Music Store.2 Iger knew that a deal with Pixar was possible; it was just a question of what that deal would look like. Did it make the most sense for Disney to simply buy Pixar? Walt Disney Feature Animation Walt Disney Feature Animation began with the production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs in 1934.
