One of many videos created by Pixar, showing how big and small can be animated
We are looking at Looking Little and large for our current animation brief.
I really enjoy how little and large come together here. All the small birds respect the older bird and he knows that. I'm looking at the comedic side and want to bring out the anticipation of whats happening next in my video.
Ralph Eggleston wrote and directed this Oscar winning short, and worked on Toy Story which won him an Annie Award for the best art direction. Ralphs team watched lots of reference videos of flamingos and swands for the big bird, also watching National Geographic videos to learn the attitude and shivers for the little birds. Eggleston even videotaped his own green bird for many hours and the animators learned bird behavior from watching the bird itself. I can use this reference of knowledge to go and study the movement of a tortoise's neck
