328 Ed Catmull: Zen And The Art Of Making Movies
A rat learns to cook. A trash compactor learns to love. Two office workers -- who are the monsters under your bed, mind you -- discover a new source of renewable energy. The possibilities at Pixar are infinite. But how do you shoot a movie entirely on computers? And who's going to make the software for all of this? Ed Catmull took on those questions in the early 70s, inventing many of the early computer techniques that got a 3D image on the big screen.

Mucho ha cambiado desde entonces. En estos X años, Pixar se convirtió en el mayor estudio de animación del mundo, y la saga sobre esta querida pandilla de juguet...

Want To Foster Creativity? Learn From Pixar.
Pixar has a unique track record in terms of breakthroughs. In the 90s, Pixar was leading in terms of computer animation. In 1995, they were the first to release a computer-animated feature film in the world called ‘Toy Story’. Within another decade, they had released several more popular films that became blockbusters, including ‘A Bug’s Life’, ‘Toy Story 2’, ‘Monsters, Inc.’, and ‘Finding Nemo’.What makes Pixar’s work so successful, though? According to Pixar animation pioneer Ed Catmull, it has nothing to do with luck; but more with the practices and principles that they have in place for their talents. At Pix...

It is, at heart, a book about how to build a creative culture—but it is also, as Pixar co-founder and president Ed Catmull writes, “an expression of the ideas that I believe make the best in us possible.”
