Nearly forty years ago, computer science graduate students Ed Catmull, Fred Parke, and Robert Ingebretsen created this film demonstrating the cutting edge in 3D computer graphics. The film includes a 3D animated rendering of Catmull’s hand, a face created by Parke, and fascinating making-of footage. Catmull, an early pioneer of computer graphics, later went on to co-found Pixar Animation Studios.
