Pixar Animation Studios (Pixar) is an American computer animation film studio based in Emeryville, California. Pixar is a subsidiary of The Walt Disney. Pixar began as a graphics group under Lucasfilm's computer division in 1979, before separating into its own company in 1986 with the help of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who became the company's majority shareholder. In 2006, the Walt Disney Company paid $7.4 billion for Pixar, becoming Jobs Disney's largest shareholder. The studio's mascot is Luxo Jr., a figure from Pixar's first animated picture, Luxo Jr.

Pixar is a great example of how innovation generates success. The studio has been able to develop characters that we have all grown to love for decades. Pixar has succeeded in telling stories that appeal to people of all ages, not only children. Pixar, dubbed the "Witch of Emotions," creates true masterpieces for children's films, but adults can't help but appreciate them as well. That's why, with Up (2009) and Toy Story 3 (2010), Pixar made its mark on history when it became 2 out of 3 animated films nominated in the best feature film category.

At the Oscars 2021, Pixar was once again named with the animated film Soul, which received 11/15 Oscar nominations in the animated film category, almost building up an "Oscar animation empire".

Walt Disney Animation Studios is an American animation studio that works for the Walt Disney Company, producing animated features, short films, and television shows. Founded on October 16, 1923, the company is a division of The Walt Disney Studios.

Walt Disney gathered a group of senior colleagues in 1934 and presented plans to make the first animated feature. Despite the fact that the film industry mocked the project and dubbed it "Disney's Folly" (Disney's crazy), Disney persisted and finished Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, which became the first animated film in English to use Technicolor technology.

The world that Disney has created for each of us is mostly princesses and princes, people who have had unhappy childhoods but still live well, overcome adversity, and have an optimistic and happy tomorrow. Every good thing is always welcome. That's almost the model, the message the studio wants to aim for. No matter who you are, born into any situation, as long as you have a kind heart, everything will be fine. Promoting the benevolence in each person, finding oneself or pure love between couples, family, friends, almost every cartoon from the Mouse family always carries a message of meaning, touching people's hearts.

Founded in 1985 by Hayao Miyazaki and Isao Takahata, Studio Ghibli is considered one of the monuments of Asian animation. Many people consider Ghibli to be Asia's Walt Disney, fully capable of competing with this studio.

In an era when all cartoons are being modernized with new drawing machines, Ghibli remains faithful to the traditional hand-drawn lines for each of its works. This is perhaps the studio's most distinguishing trait.

Ghibli's most successful animation series is Spirited Away (Chihiro's journey into the spirit world), which was the first anime feature in Japanese history to win the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival and an Academy Award for the year's finest cartoon. Spirited Away is also the highest-grossing Japanese animation film of all time, with a worldwide gross of $275 million. Like Spirited Away, Ghibli's Grave of the Fireflies is consistently praised by critics around the world as one of the best animated Studio Ghibli films ever produced because of its humanity.

Katzenberg met with Steven Spielberg and David Geffen shortly after leaving Walt Disney in 1994 to discuss the possibility of forming an animated and realistic action film studio. Due of risk and cost, his plan did not work for decades. They agreed to collaborate on three conditions: they would make no more than nine films a year, they would be free to work for other studios if they so desired, and they would be able to be home before dinner. DreamWorks SKG ( DreamWorks Studios ) was founded in October 1994 with financial contributions of 33 million dollars from each partner and 500 million dollars from Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft.
