John's Blog: How Pixar Fosters Collective Creativity

  • Christopher Blizzard · 1 year ago
    It's especially interesting given the way that the animation industry works. I did a little work with the studios at my last job and the usual model is that people are hired on in project-driven contracts. i.e. you're there to help render the latest toy story movie and that's it. The best people are offered contracts for the next project and most are let go. It's a brutal system.

    It's good to see some thoughts on this front from one of the studios.

    I stumbled into your blog researching chrome. wow. Sometimes, there's a gold nugget out there and I'm lucky to find it - your blog. From someone as busy as you, I really appreciate the effort you take to update it with your thoughts. Keep up the books and comments posts - I enjoy those, even tho short. It's refreshing not to have to read through other reviews that spend as much time proving the readers qualifications and credibility - you read it, these are your thoughts. Please keep it up.
