Presentation
Alien Abduction! The Truth Behind the Making of Pixar’s Elio
DescriptionIn a journey through space, a guiding star connects the crew, pulling them toward a shared yet unknown destination. In the making of Pixar’s Elio, the team always aimed for “A space we’ve never seen before.” Hear from the architects behind this constantly moving, luminescent, organic Communiverse. Learn how translucent, glowing, and dynamic Aliens from all over the galaxy arrived at this pan-galactic protopian multi-biome world and how space physics influenced all cinematic decisions. Space exploration can’t be done in traditional art in a traditional animation pipeline. You need to have science, math, imagination, beauty to be all thrown together in order to truly allow yourselves to be abducted into a new frontier. This team will share stories of how they created Elio and brought it back to Earth with grit, boldness, and a little of the old college try.
