You may not recognise his face, but you'd certainly recognise John Lasseter's work: Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Cars, Ratatouille and Wall-E, to name just some of his writing, directing and producing output. Lasseter was a co-founder of Pixar Animation Studios, and a pioneer of computer animation. In fact, Pixar pretty much invented computer-animated movies - developing from scratch the process that almost every Hollywood studio now uses. It refined its craft with a series of award-winning short films throughout the 80s, and broke into features with Toy Story in 1995 - the first full-length computer-animated movie. www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2009/feb/12/interview-john-lasseter-pixar

Nice article. I agree with what was said about the backgrounds in Bolt. There were some very painterly backgrounds in that movie which really worked.

That is why I've always liked Lasseter. Story first.
