    Best animated film: Brave Q. Please welcome the Bafta winning co-directors of the Best Animated Film, Pixar's Brave, Mark Andrews and Brenda Chapman. Congratulations guys. MARK ANDREWS: Thank you. Q. How does it feel because Pixar has this long and illustrious history of hoovering up every award in its path so is there pressure on you when you start a project like this? BRENDA CHAPMAN: We don't think -- I don't -- you don't think about it, you're just making the movie then you go oh, an award. MARK ANDREWS: Oh, 13th film, oh yeah, stacked the deck against us, oh yes. Q. So where are these going to go? Is there a big shelf in Pixar? MARK ANDREWS: There is a big thing but I think we'll keep these at our house. Q. Any questions for Brenda and Mark? Thank you. PRESS: You touched on it a little bit there but given Pixar's tremendous history for winning these awards, is it special when the films are recognised that you don't let the side down a little bit? MARK ANDREWS: No, no I think -- I mean it's -- it's great you know when you do win it because we make these films -- no matter how many times Pixar makes films it's always like when you're starting to make a film it's like making a film for the very first time, you know. So when it's released and it gets out there and it's building up all the success and then you get nominated for awards, it's like dreams come true.

  • Masculinity in Children's Film
    Masculinity in Children’s Film The Academy Award Winners Author: Natalie Kauklija Supervisor: Mariah Larsson Examiner: Tommy Gustafsson Spring 2018 Film Studies Bachelor Thesis Course Code 2FV30E Abstract This study analyzes the evolution of how the male gender is portrayed in five Academy Award winning animated films, starting in the year 2002 when the category was created. Because there have been seventeen award winning films in the animated film category, and there is a limitation regarding the scope for this paper, the winner from every fourth year have been analyzed; resulting in five films. These films are: Shrek (2001), Wallace and Gromit (2005), Up (2009), Frozen (2013) and Coco (2017). The films selected by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in the Animated Feature film category tend to be both critically and financially successful, and watched by children, young adults, and adults worldwide. How male heroes are portrayed are generally believed to affect not only young boys who are forming their identities (especially ages 6-14), but also views on gender behavioral expectations in girls.

  • Press Release
    Press release CaixaForum Madrid From 21 March to 22 June 2014 Press release CaixaForum Madrid hosts the first presentation in Spain of a show devoted to the history of a studio that revolutionised the world of animated film “The art challenges the technology. Technology inspires the art.” That is how John Lasseter, Chief Creative Officer at Pixar Animation Studios, sums up the spirit of the US company that marked a turning-point in the film world with its innovations in computer animation. This is a medium that is at once extraordinarily liberating and extraordinarily challenging, since everything, down to the smallest detail, must be created from nothing. Pixar: 25 Years of Animation casts its spotlight on the challenges posed by computer animation, based on some of the most memorable films created by the studio. Taking three key elements in the creation of animated films –the characters, the stories and the worlds that are created– the exhibition reveals the entire production process, from initial idea to the creation of worlds full of sounds, textures, music and light. Pixar: 25 Years of Animation traces the company’s most outstanding technical and artistic achievements since its first shorts in the 1980s, whilst also enabling visitors to discover more about the production process behind the first 12 Pixar feature films through 402 pieces, including drawings, “colorscripts”, models, videos and installations. Pixar: 25 Years of Animation . Organised and produced by : Pixar Animation Studios in cooperation with ”la Caixa” Foundation. Curator : Elyse Klaidman, Director, Pixar University and Archive at Pixar Animation Studios. Place : CaixaForum Madrid (Paseo del Prado, 36).
