Something Left, Something Taken: The Workflow
Aug 18th
Just realized the title to this post sounds like a movie sequel. I guess this is a sequel of sorts. In this sequel to Jacob’s post, we will see how Something Left, Something Taken was made. Red Giant TV put together this behind-the-scenes look at the short film created by Tiny Inventions. The amount of work and creativity that went into the short is astounding. It’s a must see for anyone wanting to make their own short film!

Little girl has her Walters crossed

Check out this really cute post from the Letters of Note blog where:
Thanks to the endearingly confused efforts of a young cartoon fan in 1964 we have the following charming sequence of letters to enjoy. The fan in question – Wendy – fancied acquiring some pictures of Woody Woodpecker and the character’s creator, and so attempted to ask him directly. Indeed the request reached Walter Lantz, but not without a brief detour due to a case of mistaken identity.

Wired dot com has an article about Creating Toy Story 3. It’s short and simple, but entertaining nonetheless.
Head on over and check it out.

It provides some fun statistics, and gives you a (very) rough time-line for the incredible task of making an animated feature film!
