A Short History of CG Characters in Movies

Postby Charles » Fri Sep 23, 2011 9:34 am

I discovered this video via a blog maintained by Sachin Kumar Mohanty and am embedding it for educational purposes here on the Forums.

This is a short documentary on Vimeo which does a good job describing the history of computer generated characters in motion pictures.
