\n<\/u>Pixar Story Development<\/strong><\/p>\n

Toy Story 3<\/em> screenwriter, Michael Arndt, is set to make an appearance at the Austin Film Festival<\/a> to conduct two insightful talks. <\/p>\n

• Pixar Story Development Process:<\/strong> Mary Coleman and Emily Zuluaf (Dev. Execs) join Arndt to discuss the studio’s steps towards fostering original ideas. These include research trips and feedback from the Brain Trust.<\/p>\n

• How 4 Years of Creative Agony Became 93 Minutes of Movie Fun:<\/strong> Also led by Arndt, this talk is accompanied by reels from various stages of Toy Story 3<\/em> production to exemplify missteps and how they were rectified by the time the film was completed.<\/p>\n

For more information, including tickets and a full list events, please check out the official website<\/a> of the Austin Film Festival.<\/p>\n
