The Art of UP
After Toy Story, Ratatouille, WALL•E, and other award-winning blockbusters, where else could Pixar Animation Studios go but UP? Their latest film is the heartwarming story of Carl Fredrickson (voiced by Ed Asner), a 78-year-old widower who feels that life has passed him by—until a twist of fate takes him on a journey across the globe. UP is set to take off on May 29, 2009. The Art of UP contains more than 250 pieces of concept art developed for the feature, including storyboards, full-color pastels, digital and pencil sketches, character studies, color scripts, and more. Quotes from the director, artists, animators, and production team reveal the sky-high creativity that elevated this whimsical film to new heights.


Tim Hauser has been a writer, creative executive, and producer in animation for over 20 years. He lives in Los Angeles.

Pete Docter is the director of UP and Monsters, Inc., and the co-writer of Toy Story and Toy Story 2.
