Ed Catmul and the Pixar Way
I’ve always been in love with animation. I’d love to one day direct or write an animated film, something with heart, action and suspense, like Brad Bird.
The guys at Pixar have always done things right, and if you haven’t seen The Pixar Story yet, I highly suggest you go watch it.
In the meantime, I found these two videos on the 11SecondClub forums, Ed Catmull, John Lasseter and the late Steve Jobs, describing how Pixar works and how they put story first, something a lot of films should stop and do.
