A Background On 3D Animation Toronto

By Linda Ruiz


Three dimensional animation films have been around for a very long time now as movie making bodies like Pixar or Disney would make them. Of course even the big movies would make use of the techniques in 3d animation toronto in order to make their special effects. Now if one would want to know more about this type of animation, here is a brief history of how it started and how it evolved.

Now for those who do not know, this type of animation would make use of 3d objects and making them move. They would get some shapes together, put them all together, and just make them move in order to form a film or a movie. Now this could either be physical objects or even digital objects.

Now probably the first type came out during the sixties which would be known as claymation or stop motion. Claymation, as the name implies, is clay animation wherein one would use clay figures and make them move. The movements of these clay figures would then be collected and put together in order to form a short film or even a short movie.

Now to make a stop motion film, the very first thing that one would have to do would be to craft a clay figure using some modelling clay. What he will do is he will first make the figure do a pose and then take a picture. Then he will just repeat the steps with different poses and collect all the pictures together in order to make a whole film.

Although stop motion was very popular at that time, it was actually too time consuming. Because of this, people moved on to making three dimensional images using the computer. In the seventies, Frederic Parke was able to create a three dimensional face while Edwin Catmull was able to create a hand. Together, they made a film known as Futureworld that incorporated these animations.

As time passed by, so many movies have utilized this innovation and this method in order to incorporate them in the special effects of their movies. Now the Star Wars movies from Lucasfilms and of course the Jurassic Park series are just some examples. What they would do is that they would make use of three dimensional animations in order to make special effects.

Now one of the first full three dimensional movies to ever come out in the screen was none other than Toy Story in the year 1995. This was a big thing at that time because it actually the first 3d animation film to make it to the big screen. Because of this one film, there were many more famous ones that followed.

Nowadays, this type of animation can be commonly seen anywhere and there are many computer artists who would use these types of animations. One of the places with a lot of great computer artists in this field would be Toronto, Ontario. Not only are they skilled in computer graphics, but also in design as well and many of them are actually very innovative when it comes to creating short films.
