Article No.: 6, Page 1
Abstract
Lightyear, Pixar's sci-fi action adventure, is the definitive origin story of Buzz Lightyear, the hero who inspired the toy. In this Production Session, blast off with the crew as they trace their challenging journey to create a cohesive visual look that was both stylistically unique yet referential to the Toy Story world. This multidisciplinary group includes sets, characters, shading, tailoring & simulation, effects, compositing, and lighting.
