<\/a>It’s typical to find concept art all over a Pixarian’s wall, but it isn’t everyday when an unannounced character shows up hidden in a Pixar featurette.<\/p>\n

That’s why the still above is so interesting. That’s Greg Dykstra, a character sculptor at Pixar showing his model for a young version of Carl during an Up featurette. Behind him (circled, click to view larger) you’ll notice a boy and a dinosaur.<\/p>\n

Does anyone know what this could be? Bryko614<\/a>, who noticed the concept art<\/a> above while watching the Up B-Roll, took that question to Ronnie del Carmen. Via del Carmen’s Twitter<\/a>: "@Bryko614 I do. But not telling. Nothing to do with anything Toy Story, tell you that." Understandable.<\/p>\n

Hmm… Could it be concept for a feature? Definitely not Cars 2; sounds kind of farfetched for The Bear and the Bow or Newt. With this, I’ve come to a conclusion that it’s probably art for an upcoming short film.<\/p>\n

Update:<\/strong> The Pixar Touch author David A. Price pointed this blog post<\/a> out to me via e-mail although I did not have time to update. The post by animator Austin Madison features a group of Pixarians including Greg Dykstra at a dinosaur dig. Sounds like a research trip to me…<\/p>\n

We’ll let you know if anything develops further like plot details or other announcements as they come. Your thoughts…?<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
