"Art of Pixar" insert in Total Film magazine
Last night at our local Barnes & Noble, my wife found a copy of a British magazine called "Total Film". The current issue (#117 Summer 2006) comes in a cardboard folder and contains a 34 page booklet called "The Art of Pixar".
It's got artwork on every page. Most of it I've seen before, but some only in MOMA exhibit catalog. So, if you don't have that, with this you'll get to see a small percentage of it. The artwork covers the shorts and all the feature films including "Cars".
There's a page and a half Q&A with John Lasseter answering questions sent in by readers (presumably) and short interviews with many Pixar artists: Pete Docter, Andrew Stanton, Bob Petersen, Michael Kass and many others.
Here's a nice sketch of Buzz I haven't seen anywhere else. I like the different eye poses at the bottom.
This is what a lot of the smaller interviews look like. Short answers by Pixar artists and artwork.
Some of the MOMA art.
I don't know long this will be available, so you should grab your copy soon.
