Short subjects, big ideas.(CG Short Films)(Brief article)
Last year, under the direction of Ed Catmull, president, and John Lasseter, chief creative officer, Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios each released a feature and a short animated film. Whether by design or happenstance, the short films are completely different in style from the features, which themselves pushed the studios in new directions.
Disney's Bolt (see "Back to the Future," November 2008) is a CG film that begins with a rousing superhero action sequence, followed by a comedic road trip and coming-of-age story. Its adorable stars are a CG dog, cat, and hamster in a glass ball. On the other hand, Disney's animated short "Glago's Guest," which is directed by Bolt co-director Chris Williams, is a thought-provoking film in a bold, minimalist style. It's a far cry from what most people think of as a Disney film.
