The History Of 3D Animation Toronto

By Linda Ruiz


Three dimensional films like Toy Story or Ice Age have been really popular among viewers because of the type of visuals that was used. What these movies made use of was none other than the age old 3d animation Toronto. Although this type of animation is very popular among a lot of viewers today, it has a very long history that is actually very interesting to take note of.

Now just to give an idea of how these types of animations are made, basically, creators would make use of three dimensional objects and put them together. Once they would put these objects together, they would then make them move so that short film is born. The animators would be making use of either physical objects or digital ones.

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.

In order to make a stop motion film, one would first have to make a figure that is made out of clay and then make him strike a pose. From there, he will take a picture of that figure doing a pose then make him do another pose and just repeat the process. Eventually, he will collect all the pictures he took and put them together in order to make film.

Now even though stop motion was already consider an innovative way to create animations, it was too hard and took too long. So what people did is that they made use of images in the computer in order to do something similar. Now Frederic Parke made a three dimensional head while Edwin Catmull made a hand. Now in the seventies, they collaborated together and made Futureworld, a film with a lot of 3d animation effects.

Soon during the seventies, eighties, and nineties, many of these types of animations were incorporated into big time films in order to create the special effects. Some of these films were Star Wars, Jurassic Park, and the Terminator. By making use of the raw three dimensional images, they were able to merge it with realistic objects.

Now in the year 1995, the very first and well loved three dimensional animated movie came out which was Toy Story. Toy Story was the first movie that made use of pure 3d animations. Now after Pixar created the very famous Toy Story, many other types of similar movies that utilized these animations came out as well.

Computer artists would often make use of this type of animation in order to create very interesting films and even special effects for movies. The place that is very famous for very experienced computer artists in this field would be Toronto, Ontario. Many artists in this field would come from this place and these people are known for their creativity.
