In this book, we also want to convey a sense of the animator’s place in the making of the fi lm and their perspective on what hap- pened, along with their professional journey leading up to that point. Steve Segal was born in Richmond, Virginia, in 1949. He made his fi rst animated fi lms as a high school student before studying Art at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he continued to produce award- winning, independent ani- mated shorts. Aft er graduating, Segal opened a traditional animation studio in Richmond, making commercials and educational fi lms for ten years. Aft er completing the cult animated fi lm Futuropolis (1984), which he co- directed with Phil Trumbo, Segal moved to Hollywood and became interested in com- puter animation.

While this is apparent, I would argue that the Toy Story franchise as a whole is representative of the history and development of Pixar Animation Studios and its relationship with the Walt Disney Company. Th is twenty- fi ve- year relationship, which was formalized in 1991 when Disney agreed to fi nance the development, produc- tion and distribution of Pixar’s fi rst feature fi lm, has been both turbulent and mutually benefi cial.

HOFFMAN has been approved for the Film Division and the College of Fine Arts by Ofer Eliaz Assistant Professor of Film Studies Elizabeth Sayrs Interim Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT HOFFMAN, SARAH G., M.A., April 2017, Film Not Just Entertainment: Hollywood Animation and the Corporate Merchandising Aesthetics and Narratives for a Children’s Audience Director of Thesis: Ofer Eliaz This thesis explores different techniques in aesthetics and narrative the Walt Disney Company, Pixar, and DreamWorks use to sell corporate ideologies to child consumers and family audiences in the 1980’s and early 2000’s. Disney scholars recognize Disney Princess Movies as large merchandising agents for moral pedagogy for children. Film theory on aestheticism demonstrate how Disney’s social representations reside in a spectacle rather than an actual moral educators for children. Disney’s affiliate, Pixar Inc., designs their characters for the Disney market, but Pixar promotes itself as a more socially conscience company. DreamWorks’s early films propose alternative methods for making children’s films by eliminating formulaic narratives and incorporating non-merchandisable comedy. These animation production studios provide children and families with antidotes for reality’s drudgery through images ranging from idyllic fairy tale narratives to their parodies.

  • PRODUCTION NOTES Disney and Pixar's Original Feature Film “Luca”
    PRODUCTION NOTES Disney and Pixar’s original feature film “Luca” is a fun and heartwarming story about friendship, stepping out of your comfort zone and two teenage sea monsters who experience a life-changing summer. “This movie is about the friendships that change us,” says director Enrico Casarosa. “It’s a love letter to the summers of our youth—those formative years when you’re finding yourself.” Adds producer Andrea Warren, “It’s a magical coming-of-age-story about remembering the people who shaped us along the way.” Set in a beautiful seaside town on the Italian Riviera, “Luca” is a story about one boy experiencing an unforgettable summer filled with gelato, pasta and endless scooter rides. Luca shares these adventures with his newfound best friend, Alberto, but all the fun is threatened by a deeply held secret: they are both sea monsters from another world just below the water’s surface. “Luca is a shy, polite, introverted, rule-following kid who has a secret desire to see the world and learn all he can,” says screenwriter Jesse Andrews. “But he’s been told his whole life that sea monsters should never go above the surface of the water where all the interesting stuff seems to be happening.” So it’s no surprise that Luca harbors a secret fascination with all things human. His curiosity is especially sparked when he discovers items that have floated down from the surface. “Luca knows nothing of the surface,” says screenwriter Mike Jones. “So these items are glimpses of another world—as if it were an object of an extraterrestrial landing on Earth.
