Blue Sky Studios: Difference between revisions

Once upon a time, there was a little studio called MAGI/Synthavision. In 1987, having completed some of the effects on the ground-breaking [[Disney]] film ''[[Tron]]'' and some CG animation for commercials, an employee named Chris Wedge gathered a bunch of his co-workers and formed a studio of his own. They produced some effects for live-action films like ''[[Fight Club]]'' and ''[[Alien Resurrection]]'', along with their first short film ''Bunny'', which Wedge directed. In the wake of the CG cartoon movement ([[Pixar]] had released ''[[A Bug's Life (Animation)|A Bugs Life]]'' a year before ''Bunny'' was awarded Best Animated Short in the Oscars), the studio just happened to be bought by [[Twentieth Century Fox]] to help fish them out of their failing 2-D feature animation unit. And the rest is [[Ice Age|prehistory]].
