Apparently there’s a Pixar exhibit at The Henry Ford Museum. Neat stuff. Pictures are featuring children numbers 8 and 6.
The exhibit was all computer driven interaction workstations besides these models. They really did an exceptional job putting it all together.
I don’t know where to find out what Museum it will be at next, but it’s worth looking into if you’re a Pixar fan or want to see (or your kids see) how modern animation is done. Rigging, lighting, meshes, rendering pipeline, all with examples from the movies, and real world exhibits demonstrating the concepts. For instance, placing a “wrapper” on a 3D model to change it’s appearance.
Or physicallly modeling a 3D scene and adding lighting to determine design and lighting decisions before committing to a 3D model.
Anyway, pretty nifty stuff.
