Journal #5

Okay, I know I will never be able to animate this good, but I have the absolute highest respect for anyone who models like this. I could go on for hours about Disney and Pixar, but for this I will just do a brief post about Cars (and Cars 2 because that's on its way to theaters).

I am fascinated at the way these animators can not only make the characters have human expressions but also how they texture the characters. If you go to Pixar's Youtube page they actually have about 10 cars from the new movie up for display. It's hard to describe each one, but just the change of color tone and brightness, as well as fitting the images to the unique shapes of the cars, is just spectacular.
