  • Short Film Collection Is a Visual History of Pixar Animation Studios - Michael Kleinschrodt - Times-Picayune - NOLA.Com 9/17/08 7:45 AM
    Short film collection is a visual history of Pixar Animation Studios - Michael Kleinschrodt - Times-Picayune - NOLA.com 9/17/08 7:45 AM Short film collection is a visual history of Pixar Animation Studios Posted by mkleinsc November 02, 2007 04:59AM A desire to prove the ability of new computer hardware and software led a group of technicians at LucasFilm Ltd. in 1984 to create a 90-second animated film titled "The Adventures of Andre and Wally B." Despite the film's artistic limitations, it excited animators at a graphic artists conference, who realized that computer animation was becoming a viable field, no longer limited to flat, unshaded and untextured colors, and the simplest of geometric shapes. The technology could be used to tell a story. Soon after, Apple executive Steve Jobs and other investors bought The Graphics Group from George Lucas, hired away the techies responsible for the division's work, and set up the division as its own company, bringing in John Lasseter -- an actual animator -- to provide the creative juice for the newly rechristened Pixar Animation Studios. The "Pixar Short Films Collection, Vol. 1," which is being released to DVD on Tuesday in conjunction with the DVD release of the summer hit "Ratatouille," provides a visual history of Pixar and computer animation. Jack-Jack, the harmless-looking infant from 'The Incredibles,' reveals his superpower in 'Jack-Jack Attack,' one of 13 computer-animated works included in the 'Pixar Short Films Collection, Vol. 1,' which arrives Tuesday on DVD. The 13 films include the studio's first official film, "Luxo Jr.," which is referenced in Pixar's animated logo, in which an artist's lamp mischievously tamps down the "I" in "Pixar." The films can be divided into three rough categories: early films that experimented with the technology, later works created for the animators' own amusement and follow-ups to the feature films for which Pixar has become famous.
