Pixar hires top talent and bulk of everyone outside pixar that's into childrens cartoons are fucking weirdos.

I def don't think of Pixar if I'm to list my CGI heroes.

Because lots of money with which they hire lots of people. Most of their stuff is brute-forced, meaning they do everything by hand because they can. Whereas us hoi polloi have to get into the nitty gritty technical stuff, we need to know how to texture, rig, animate, code, render etc.

imagine having 1 full month the perfect 15 min
x6 for 90min movie
divide that per job per 15min
animation 4
texture 3
model 4
effects 2
sounds 2
writer 2
video editing 2
voice actor 4
23 people, you could have a movie out every 6 months
everyone getting paid 3k a month
69k a month
414k in 6 month

No director or leader so mostly the project would not get done in 6 month

2year project cost around 2mil with a team that size

They actually aren´t, they just have Disney´s money backing them up.
We have far more complex and interesting stories and designs than what those hacks come up with, but it´s THEM that show up in the news, in the magazines (?), in the comments and threads of facebook, twitter, 4chan´s /3/...
If your work and your name showed up in the local news when you´r family were watching, they´d be proud of you forever - even if you weren´t getting jack shit for it.
If some dumb investor saw your shit as the 'next big thing', you´d be swamped in investor´s money out of fucking nowhere.
This, my friend, is money. Teams and renderfarms are somewhow easy to get nowadays. Attention isn´t.

Pixar was co-founded by Steve Jobs. It's always been a tech company that happens to make movies. Everyone else makes movies with the tech they have at disposal.

Exactly. Pixar/Disney seem to be the only ones who can afford it to have artists iterate several hundred times on a single scene, basically letting the autists and narcissists run the asylum due to the power of their deep pockets.
And of course the masses gobble it up as if the amount of details in a single scene are somehow more meaningful than actual meaning or actual artistic quality, rather than the shiny surface.
A problem that has become prevalent in all media industries.
Also we truly live in an attention economy - a reality that a person like me with ADHD is painfully aware of, while "normal" people often seem to not getting it.

they had to invent USD 10 years ago to do this. Only now is usd being released to the public and only in houdini is it barely usable and even then there are gotcha's
