What is The Pixar Story about?

A look at the first years of Pixar Animation Studios - from the success of "Toy Story" and Pixar's promotion of talented people, to the building of its East Bay campus, the company's relationship with Disney, and its remarkable initial string of eight hits. The contributions of John Lasseter, Ed Catmull and Steve Jobs are profiled. The decline of two-dimensional animation is chronicled as three-dimensional animation rises. Hard work and creativity seem to share the screen in equal proportions.

What does the cinematography of The Pixar Story look like?

Across 12 sampled frames, The Pixar Story builds its coverage from wide compositions, with medium shots carrying much of the rest. Cinematographer Suki Medencevic keeps a large share of it in soft, naturalistic light. Most of the frames play at night or in the failing light of dusk. Deep focus keeps foreground and background readable at once in most of the frames.
