Pixar is a CGI animation production company based in Emeryville, California, United States. The studio has earned numerous awards for their feature films and other work, including twenty-two Academy Awards, four Golden Globes and three Grammys. Pixar is best known for these CGI-animated features created with PhotoRealistic RenderMan, its own implementation of the industry-standard Renderman image-rendering API used to generate high-quality images.

As of 2010, Pixar has released 11 CGI films, all released under the Walt Disney Pictures banner. The company produced its first feature-length film, Toy Story, in 1995. The film won an Academy Award and was nominated for three others. It set a benchmark in terms of animation to which other film companies have since aspired. The success of the film led Pixar to release a sequel Toy Story 2 in 1999, following their second CGI production, A Bug's Life in 1998. Monsters, Inc. was the next project to be released in 2001, and the following features Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille, WALL-E, Up and Toy Story 3 were highly successful. Each film has garnered critical acclaim for the use of CGI, well-developed storylines and film production. Three more Pixar films including two sequels are slated for release by 2012.
