Abstract

Although Pixar Animation Studio has not emphasized the creative concept of combining education with entertainment, as an excellent creator of animated films, it must be a pursuer of “truth, goodness and beauty”. Through in-depth analysis of the classic animated films of the Pixar, it is found that the virtual and unreal expression of “beauty” makes it extremely entertaining, while the honesty and authenticity of “truth and goodness” make it extremely educational valuable. This article combines the specific story framework, theme expression, character setting, scene plot and picture performance of Pixar animated films to explore the relationship between the same origins of the animation movies’ “combining education with entertainment” and “truth, goodness and beauty”.
