This hands-on module explores how Pixar creates natural-looking environments by weaving straight lines into smooth curves. Students use midpoints to construct parabolic arcs, learning the math behind realistic scenery in animation. The lesson includes interactive exercises and takes about an hour to complete, blending art, geometry, and computer graphics.
