Total Film's Extensive Interview With John Lasseter

John Lasseter News

Most of us know John Lasseter’s story. But how many times have you heard it from the man himself?

Total Film magazine sat down with the Pixar-guru himself for this extensive interview. The article spans from John’s early days idolizing toons and getting a job at Disney to his eventual let go from the Mouse House and his life at Pixar where, as we all know, he heads at the present. It’s a detailed read (13 pages) but also very interesting especially if you want a first hand account of Pixar’s history.

The Chief Creative Officer of Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios also took some time to talk about their latest projects. 
"The story is amazing, it’s like, ‘Wow!’ We’re really excited about it."
~John Lasseter on Toy Story 3.
He also shares some tidbits on 3D at Pixar, Up and Cars 2 which he’s "working very, very closely with Brad Lewis" on.

Take the time to read this fantastic account in Lasseter’s own words right here!
