Pete Docter Discusses Pixar Animation Studios Future As He Reveals That The Studio Currently Has 8 Upcoming Films In Production.

40 years ago the animation industry changed forever with the foundation of Pixar Animation Studios. For four decades, the animation studio pushed storytelling and the magic of artists with computer animation.

BAFTA sat down with Pixar Chief Creative Officer Pete Docter ("Monsters Inc.", "Up", "Inside Out", "Soul") in discussing the legacy of the studio and what we can expect for it's future. Docter awnsered the question by stating that the studio currently has eight animated films in various stages of production.

"We have, i think eight films in production right now in varying parts of production so it's alot of work but it's really pretty cool." --- Pete Docter

There's only four films recently announced ("Toy Story 5", "Gatto", "The Incredibles 3" and "Coco 2") Other projects we know are original films by Domee Shi, Rossana Sullivan and Aphton Corbin and a new original film with a Romani lead thanks to a casting call from 2024.

CalArts Animation Student: “If I Don’t Draw Black Characters, Who Will?”

CalArts character animation student Aphton Corbin has been publishing an impressive series of daily comics in honor of Black History Month.

Yesterday’s piece by Corbin speaks directly to the idea of what it means for a young person of color to be creating artwork in an industry that famously cranks out homogeneous product that rarely deviates from established formulas.

Corbins’ comic is reminiscent of comments by El Tigre co-creator and Book of Life director Jorge Gutierrez, who has often spoken out about the lack of representation in the animation industry. “When is the Mexican princess going to show up?” Gutierrez used to wonder when he was a kid, before realizing that “to make something that resonates, it should always come from an honest place.”

For artists just coming into the business, it’s easy to fall into the trap of making more of what the industry already produces, but as Corbin’s comic and Gutierrez’s experiences remind us, the power to transform the industry is within the grasp of each individual artist.
