Night & Day -The New Animated Short by Pixar

0

As you may know, every feature film made by Pixar film is preceded by an animated short. Night & Day, the short that accompanies Toy Story 3 is the newest of these and it’s breathtakingly original in its mixing of traditional 2D and 3D animation styles. I hesitate to post it on had to remove it from the blog only because it really deserves to be seen on a full size movie screen. So, if you’re thinking you might go see Toy Story 3 in the theater, you may want to hold off and just know that you’re in for a special treat when you get there. In the meantime, this behind the scenes look at it is a nice teaser.

As a rule, I don’t like to cover anything from the movie industry on the Jailbreak just because it’s not really what we’re about and they get enough coverage already. However there’s an exception to every rule and Pixar is one such exception. They are putting something truly special into the world and I admire their style and ethos. I read an article in Newsweek when Up came out last year which made a really valid case for Pixar being in the midst of its own Golden Age. I think they are. And it’s rare that we get a chance to recognize we’re witnessing something so significant while it’s still occurring (yet all too easy to recognize in hindsight once it’s gone).
