Inside Walt Disney Animation Studios - A Photo Tour
In most corporate buildings you'd imagine the boss's office would be pretty hard to find. Not so John Lasseter's office at WDAS - his glass cube is right off the Caffeine patch, and full of art from his favourite Disney animations and Pixar projects. He and Catmull split their time between WDAS in Burbank and Pixar further north in San Francisco, and by all accounts seem pretty accessible to their staff - more than once we caught Lasseter milling in the Caffeine Patch chatting to animators. And giant hamsters.

on Feb 13 2009 07:27 AM Pixar's studio looks better, at least according to the pictures. Disney's studio looks rather conventional other than the art. (Reply to this) |
on Feb 13 2009 07:34 AM So that's where classics like "brother Bear" and "Little Mermaid 2" were created ugh!... I hope the boys from Pixar can save the mouse. I remember when I was younger being excited to see the new Disney animated movie. Now, unless Pixars involved,Disney makes POOP! (Reply to this) |
on Feb 13 2009 10:25 AM Aside from Bolt, pretty much everything Disney does animation-wise has been junk. (Reply to this) |

on Feb 13 2009 11:20 AM I don't know- "The Princess and the Frog" really seems to have some potential, as does "Rapunzel." It's nice to see Disney return to classic 2D animation. As much as I love Pixar and CG animation, I feel that Disney's heart belongs in 2D, now and forever. (Reply to this) |

on Feb 15 2009 07:29 PM im getting tired of this "only pixar movies are worth watching." Don't forget...without Disney, there would be no pixar. And they have done much more than just "sequels". Unfortunatly it is not what it was 10-15 years ago...but it's getting there again. These few pictures don't justify how awesome the Studios actually it is. I've been there and it's a wonderful place!

on Feb 18 2009 10:18 AM Your article states the following: "around the corner the WDAS screening room - shockingly bereft of 3D projection - is decorated with the familiar mouse ears logo." I don't know what the author of the article is smoking, but the WDAS screening room is perfectly capable of 3D projection, and has often been used for just that function. And to Kathleen S. - Rapunzel will be a CG feature, not 2D. After Princess and the Frog, the next scheduled 2D release from WDAS will be The Snow Queen. (Reply to this) |
