Lifted

News Pixar


Upon reading a post at the Pixar Planet forums and reading that Pixar’s next short film is called Lifted and is about an alien, I decided to research into it to see if I could find out any more credible information to support the existance of this short film.

I stumbled upon this site first. They gave me the following information…

Lifted
2006 | 5 Minutes
Color | 35mm

Distributor: Pixar Animation Studios

Film Summary

Animated Short. A bumbling young alien student from a distant world tests the patience of an increasingly weary instructor as he attempts a first-time abduction of a innocently slumbering farmer in Lifted, the comical latest short film from Pixar Animation Studios.

I searched furthur and found that Lifted will be showing at The 42nd Chicago International Film Festival. I also found the above image. They stated the following information…
