The roller-coaster rags-to-riches story behind the phenomenal success of Pixar Animation Studios: the first in-depth look at the company that forever changed the film industry and the "fraternity of geeks" who shaped it. "The Pixar Touch" is a story of technical innovation that revolutionized animation, transforming hand-drawn cel animation to computer-generated 3-D graphics. It's a triumphant business story of a company that began with a dream, remained true to the ideals of its founders--antibureaucratic and artist driven--and ended up a multibillion-dollar success. We meet Pixar's technical genius and founding CEO, Ed Catmull, who dreamed of becoming an animator, inspired by Disney's "Peter Pan "and "Pinocchio," realized he would never be good enough, and instead enrolled in the then new field of computer science at the University of Utah. It was Catmull who founded the computer graphics lab at the New York Institute of Technology and who wound up at Lucasfilm during the first "Star Wars" trilogy, running the computer graphics department, and found a patron in Steve Jobs, just ousted from Apple Computer, who bought Pixar for five million dollars. Catmull went on to win four Academy Awards for his technical feats and helped to create some of the key computer-generated imagery software that animators rely on today. Price also writes about John Lasseter, who catapulted himself from unemployed animator to one of the most powerful figures in American filmmaking; animation was the only thing he ever wanted to do (he was inspired by Disney's "The Sword in the Stone"), and Price's book shows how Lasseter transformed computer animation from a novelty into an art form. The author writes as well about Steve Jobs, as volatile a figure as a Shakespearean monarch . . . Based on interviews with dozens of insiders, "The Pixar Touch" examines the early wildcat years when computer animation was thought of as the lunatic fringe of the medium. We see the studio at work today; how its writers, directors, and animators make their astonishing, and astonishingly popular, films. The book also delves into Pixar's corporate feuds: between Lasseter and his former champion, Jeffrey Katzenberg ("A Bug's Life" vs. "Antz"), and between Jobs and Michael Eisner. And finally it explores Pixar's complex relationship with the Walt Disney Company as it transformed itself from a Disney satellite into the $7.4 billion jewel in the Disney crown.

其实,看看动画就好了.至于动画背后,不知道也无谓. 知道猪肉很香,不用懂得如何养猪是一个道理. 除非你是动画产业的相关专业人士可简单借鉴一下.
评分还记得红白相间的小丑鱼尼莫吗?还有多莉。它们都来自于动画片《海底总动员》,你可能没有看过这部电影,没有关系。你可能看过《玩具总动员》、《料理鼠王》(《美食总动员》)和《超人总动员》等。如果你真没有看过以上这些动画电影,那你可以问问你的孩子和朋友,他们肯...

评分快餐读物,翻一翻得了。没什么意思。文笔一般,平铺直叙。装帧也一般。对皮克萨有兴趣的就买来读读吧。优点是比较新,能写到最近的飞屋旅行记。
评分出于对有创造力公司的偏爱,一直想了解一些皮克斯的成长历程,作为一个还不算很老的公司,amazon上关于皮克斯的传记不多,皮克斯内部人士自己写的更没有,一本外人写的《The Pixal Touch》,还有一本皮克斯公司出的公关稿性质的《To Infinity and Beyond!: The Story of Pixar ...
