Toy
story was the first feature-length 3D computer animation which produced by
Pixar Animation Studio, directed by John Lasseter. Toy story series are one of
the most popular animations in world. The story is about the toys which belongs
to Andy. As all the children will grow up, their toys will face the abandonment
issues. Andy’s growth promote the development of the story and the movies perfectly
describe each character and catch the touching moments. The plots are simple,
the toys hope to get their owner’s care and love, then a lot of things happen
and they need to break through all the difficulties to get that love they want.
I like this movie as it give me a lot of the feeling and happy time. I watched
this movie when I was very young. I love the stories and the characters. The
animations were so brilliant to establish such wonderful world for people. They
just use some toys which are the most common things in the world as the main
characters to describe a story of growth and accompany. We all have a toys and
they play an significant role in our lives. So when we watch this move we can
find a lot of memories. Those toys are our friends forever.
In 1990, after twists and turns the Pixar Studio
finally got the chance to make their first 3D animation movie, which is also
the first one in the world. This is a historical progress and it symbolizes the
New Age of the animation. The movie’s name is “ Toy story”. It is said that the
first step is the only difficulty, but the all the steps are all troubles for something
which is brand new. I believe as the first tracker, Pixar seemed like in a pressure
cooker at that time. Under the pressure of funds, the limitation of technology and
stress from Disney, the animators stumbled every step of way and the movie
almost to be aborted at the worst time. However, the movie succeed and shocked
the world. What is the secret that make it such successful and popular? The
secret penetrates in every corner of each frame. Next time I will talk more detail
about the ups and downs making process of “Toy story 1-3”
This video depicts the growth process of
Pixar animation studios and the development of 3D technology in the field of
animation application. Pixar, which is a very special animation studio as it has
a lot of experience and is combined with a group of amazing animators. They
devote themselves to creating wonderful animations and no matter what, they
never give up and always bring people a lot of surprises. Steve Jobs said “Pixar
has seen by a lot of folks as an overnight sess, but if you really look
closely- many overnight sesses took a long time”. We must have seen their works
before, such as Toy Story, A Bug’s Life, Cars, Monsters Inc, Finding Nemo, Wall
E, Up, Brave and so on. Those animations are almost known by anyone and we grow
up together. Everyone can receive more
or less positive energy and inner feeling from different stories. They give me
a great number of inspirations and encouragement. I really appreciate their
company and they show me the reason why is it amazing to become an animator. As
Walt Disney had said “when finding a new picture, we don’t think of grown-ups,
we don’t think of children, we just look at the fine, clean, unspoiled spots
down deep in anyone of us. Maybe the world would make it forget and maybe our
pictures can help record”.
