PIXAR

THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION

CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB

Pixar Animation Studios, originally The Graphics Group at Lucasfilm, was co-founded by Edwin Catmull and Alvy Ray Smith. It became an independent company in 1986 with investment from Steve Jobs. Pixar is known for its groundbreaking computer-animated feature films, starting with Toy Story (1995). The studio pioneered RenderMan, its own rendering software. Pixar developed the "Braintrust," a creative process with candid feedback. After disagreements with Disney, Pixar was acquired by them in 2006, making Jobs a major Disney shareholder. Pixar's films have achieved both critical and financial success, including Inside Out 2 (2024) as the highest-grossing Pixar film.

CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES:

Pixar's origins trace back to 1974 when Alexander Schure established the Computer Graphics Lab at the New York Institute of Technology (NYIT), aiming to create the world’s first computer-animated film. This lab laid the foundation for many of the CG techniques that Pixar would later utilize.

The group from NYIT, including Edwin Catmull and Alvy Ray Smith, moved to Lucasfilm in 1979, forming the Graphics Group which was one-third of Lucasfilm's Computer Division. They worked on creating the precursor to RenderMan, called REYES.

The name "Pixar" came about during a brainstorming session for a new digital compositing computer, initially suggested as "Picture Maker". Smith proposed "Pixer" which then evolved to "Pixar".

In February 1986, Pixar was spun off as a corporation with funding from Steve Jobs, who invested $5 million and became the majority shareholder. This happened because the employees were worried that the group would be sold off in Lucas's divorce.
