A video of the SIGGRAPH Pioneers’ January panel on The Analog Years of Computer Animation is now posted to the SIGGRAPH YouTube channel.
It shows a number of the projects that were discussed in the panel. Be sure and set aside some time to find out about how computer animation was a thriving industry for movies and TV in the 1970s, before digital tools became cost-effective for actual production work. If your entire career has focused on digital (i.e. CGI), you'll probably be surprised by what you learn and see regarding analog computer animation!
