Inspiration for the short came from real world observations, as Barillaro noticed birds feeding at the water&#8217;s edge while simultaneously flying away from the waves.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cSeeing the way these sandpipers react to waves and run, I always felt, \u2018Gosh, that\u2019s a film, that\u2019s a character.&#8217;\u00a0It\u2019s always fun to show a world we\u2019re familiar with but from a different perspective. We\u2019ve all been to the beach, but have we ever viewed water from just an inch off the sand? That could be very fearful from a bird\u2019s perspective.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Barillaro was encouraged to raise the stakes on the story by <em>Dory<\/em>&#8216;s director Andrew Stanton, as well as John Lasseter. Piper will learn about the food chain as well as some other lessons from another child, a hermit crab.<br \/>\nPiper is obviously adorable, and we can&#8217;t wait to meet the other characters. Pixar continues to expand their animation software, and as <em>Dory<\/em> looks to be absolutely visually splendid, we can guess the ocean in &#8220;Piper&#8221; will be just as gorgeous.<br \/>\nPixar&#8217;s short films rarely match the themes in the full length features they accompany, so it&#8217;s rather nice that &#8220;Piper&#8221; and <em>Finding Dory\u00a0<\/em>have similar locations.<br \/>\nYou can &#8220;sea&#8221;\u00a0both on June 17th.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"tmnf_excerpt\"><p>Entertainment Weekly has just unveiled the concept art and synopsis\u00a0for Pixar&#8217;s latest short film, &#8220;Piper&#8221;, which is attached to Finding Dory.
