Toy Story was the first ever full length feature film made entirely with CG. It was made by a team of 27 animators at Pixar on a very small budget. Considering the small team, small budget and the fact that half the animators on this project hadn't even used computers to animate before, the leap from traditional hand drawn animation to CG made by Pixar with this movie is amazing. The expressions and movements achieved were incredible and the movie is still as good now as it was then, even with the improvements in CG and the new skills the Pixar team has now. Toy Story is nearly as old as I am and I grew up with it, so it's interesting to see how much or little has changed between the original Toy Story, and Toy Story 3. Interestingly, not too much has changed in styles between these two movies, however the textures available in Toy Story 3 are much improved on the first.
