Day & Night - Various Bits
I'm so glad this cartoon is finally out in the wild! I hope that you've already had a chance to see Day & Night with Toy Story 3. If not, you can now download it from iTunes for a measly $2! So you can watch it over and over and over and over. (But you should still get out to see TS3 too, it's pretty damn good!) "Day & Night" on iTunes This image of Las Vegas was the first thing I did on Day & Night. Originally there was a shot that showed Vegas from a distance. A bleak Day version. Later the story changed and Vegas needed to be more fun so I did another loose sketch Some random sketches from the Vegas sequence.

Day & Night
I was lucky enough to be production designer on this great short film created and directed by Teddy Newton. It is the short that will be shown before Toy Story 3 (opening June 18th in the USA) so get to the theater early and don't miss it! I am very excited that the public will finally get to see it because it's unlike anything Pixar has produced before. Working on this film was one of the best times I've ever had, which is saying a lot because I’ve worked on some really great projects (like the academy award winning UP!). I can't wait! Oh and P.S. It's not about a dinosaur!
UP on DVD/BR tomorrow!
