How to get Pixarian autographs

I think I want to write to Peter Sohn. Does anyone know if he’ll respond?

Personally, I think he would be flattered and indeed respond. But, I’ve only ever written to directors, never to any of the artists.

Well I know if I write to a director, then they probably won’t respond personally which is what I would like.

Well, I just wrote to Dan Scanlon (director of Monsters U.) only because I think it has the slightest chance of being the first piece of fan mail he’s ever received. xD

8D That’s hilarious. 8D

Linguini33 : Sometimes they do. Like, they’ll write your name on the autograph, or in a letter.

WOO! And a really fast reply too!

I’m so jealous, that’s amazing! I think I might write to him too, if I could get a real reply I think I’d faint. Great idea, I’m so happy for you!

That’s awesome! I’m going to write to them soon!

Cool, even though I already saw your post in facebook. 8D

I wrote Pete Docter a while ago, and I’m desperately waiting reply. 8D

I’ve also written to Pete and am awaiting his reply.

What did he say in his reply?? I’m dying to know!

He said: “Thanks for the kind words. I’m glad you like the first film. I was a fan of that film myself. I’m looking forward to sharing MU with you and the rest of the world. Dan Scanlon”

That’s so sweet! I like the last sentence the best :smiley: He seems really nice, I still can’t believe that reply! How long did it take to get back to you?

I sent it June 24th and he sent it out July 8th. So 2 weeks.

When and if the secret Pixar project is directed by a new director, I plan on sending a request to him or her. Just because. xD

Ughhhh, I have always wanted to write to a Pixarian, specifically one who worked on Ratatouille, and tell them how much that movie changed my life, but I am having ~the~ hardest time deciding who to write to. :c

Initially I wanted to write to Lou Romano because his voice and just him in general is the most perfect thing, but of course, he doesn’t even work at Pixar anymore, so I can’t pick him. ;____;

I’m afraid of writing to someone like Brad Bird cuz I’m afraid I’ll sound really dumb and sappy and I get nervous about my writing sometimes. xD I’d especially like to get a signed still from the movie, like some of you guys got, but I don’t know how to ask for that as well, also without sounding like an idiot.

I have lots of time to work on my letter, and I’m going to hand-write it, probably… but I’m not going to send it until I’ve moved, because if I send it out from my current address and I don’t get a reply for like, a month, I’ll be somewhere totally different and then my letter will get lost in the mail, and I don’t want that.

It’s officially been 12 weeks since I wrote John Lasseter. I guess I really chose just about the worst possible time to write him, what with Cars 2 premiering and all. Here’s hoping he gets around to it eventually!

little_chef: I think Jim Capobianco would be the best choice. I mean he was a co-screenwriter and he directed Your Friend the Rat. Just my two cents.

Kris: It’s okay. It takes a long time for JL. It was 4 months before I got a response from JL.

I would love to get Brenda Chapman’s autograph. But that’s not going to happen after what’s happen with Brave.

I’ve always wanted to send a Pixar DVD to Emeryville in hopes of getting it signed by the director. Does anyone think that sounds feasible? I’m hesitant to try because 1. I don’t want to lose an amazing movie if something happens in transit 2. I don’t want whoever gets it at Pixar to think I’m “forcing” them to reply by sending something of mine and asking for it back.
