As a young man, Ed Catmull had a dream: to make the world’s first computer-animated movie. He nurtured that dream first as a Ph.D. student at the University of Utah, where many computer science pioneers got their start, and then forged an early partnership with George Lucas that led, indirectly, to his founding Pixar with Steve Jobs and John Lasseter in 1986. Nine years later and against all odds, Toy Story was released, changing animation forever.Since then, Pixar has dominated the world of animation, producing such beloved films as Monsters, Inc., Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Up, and WALL-E, which have gone on to set box-office records and garner twenty-seven Academy Awards. The joyousness of the storytelling, the inventive plots, the emotional authenticity: In some ways, Pixar movies are an object lesson in what creativity really is. Now, in this book, Catmull reveals the ideals and techniques, honed over years, that have made Pixar so widely admired—and so profitable.Creativity, Inc. is a book for managers who want to lead their employees to new heights, a manual for anyone who strives for originality, and the first-ever, all-access trip into the nerve center of Pixar Animation Studios—into the story meetings, the postmortems, and the ‘Braintrust’ sessions where art is born. It is, at heart, a book about how to build and sustain a creative culture—but it is also, as Pixar co-founder and president Ed Catmull writes, ‘an expression of the ideas that I believe make the best in us possible.’
« Dix ans après le succès de la première édition, j’ai souhaité développer certaines idées que j’avais déjà présentées et sur lesquelles j’ai enrichi ma réflexion ou quelque peu changé d’avis. J’avais aussi oublié d’évoquer quelques problèmes importants comme la valorisation de la créativité dans la culture d’entreprise. » Ed Catmull Plongez au cœur de Pixar, ce monde créé par Ed Catmull et Steve Jobs, et découvrez les secrets de la créativité et de l’innovation. Quand il était jeune, Ed Catmull avait un rêve : réaliser le tout premier film animé par ordinateur. Il a poursuivi cette idée en créant Pixar en 1986 avec le fondateur d’Apple. Neuf ans plus tard, Toy Story naissait, changeant le monde de l’animation pour toujours. L’ingrédient essentiel du succès de ces films est l’environnement unique que Ed et ses collègues ont construit chez Pixar, basé sur des philosophies de leadership et de gestion qui mettent en valeur le processus créatif et défient les conventions. Creativity, Inc. est LE guide pour tous ceux en quête de créativité et d’originalité. Il nous dévoile les coulisses du studio Pixar – les réunions, les bilans et les sessions de brainstorming durant lesquelles certains des plus grands films de l’histoire ont été créés. La joie dans la narration, l’inventivité des intrigues, l’authenticité émotionnelle : d’une certaine manière, les films Pixar sont en eux-mêmes une leçon sur ce qu’est la créativité. « Donnez une bonne idée à une équipe médiocre, et ils la détruiront. Mais donnez une idée médiocre à une bonne équipe, et ils l’amélioreront ou trouveront quelque chose de bien mieux. » Ed Catmull
