Today in Transitus Computing, we started using the new Khan Academy course "Pixar in a Box". We have wanted to learn about computer animation in cartoons and movies for a while and this course is just the ticket!

We started today by looking at parabolic arcs, which are used to generate realistic blades of grass in movies such as Brave. There's more maths and computer science in these movies than you think!
