Just to let you know, if you like Up then you can get more goss from @paperbiscuit. Del Carmen hasn’t been twittering that much these days but when he does he always has some good Up stuff.
@jgarlin - he still has his avatar as Captain McCrea. Haha.
Do we know any new pixarians that have twitter? Does Brad Bird have one?
Just found Jeff Garlin on twitter, don’t know if he counts as a pixarian, but kinda? (For those who doesn’t recognize the name is the actor who did the voice for the captain in WALL-E)
Oh, I didn’t realize Scott wasn’t on here, I’ve been following him for quite a while. He actually sent me a few direct messages, with recommendations to art schools, really cool of him! He also posts animator tips from time to time, so if you’re working on that stuff, it’d be a good idea to follow him.
I think he has something to do with Pixar because in his blog he talks a lot about Pixar and he lives in Emeryville, and he’s friends with Pixarians! I mean what are the odds he’s not with Pixar?
UPDATE
He is with Pixar, apparently he worked as a “fix animator” on Up.
(forgive my ignorance but what is a “fix animator”?)
Yeah, I think he might be trying to figure out which followers of his are from here. It’s very cool, I was like,… What the? I found it at work, like 2 minutes after he posted it. Haha! I’ve gotten several tweets back from Ronnie Del Carmen (@paperbiscuit), Jeff Pidgeon, (@jpidgeon) Josh Anon(@joshanon), Lee himself, (@leeunkrich) and 2 direct message from Scott Clark (@scott_p_clark). Very cool, it’s exciting when they respond. I tweet Lee and Jeff pretty often, especially Lee. XD
Ahh, so that was YOUR doing eh Rachel? Very cool! Nice to know he did it. I can’t follow your tweets unless I ask you to let me and you accept, and I just haven’t. Hehe.
Well, I’m not gonna say this, but Lee Unkrich seems cold towards me. I dunno why. But a lot I tweet to him, he only managed to reply once. The first tweet I tweet to him. And no more for him. It kinda make me mad+sad sometimes, but I dunno why on earth I’m still following him. Perhaps he is the creator of Rex I guess.
Lee Unkrich is probably just a busy guy and gets a million tweets per day from fans. Don’t take it personally if he doesn’t respond. Just because he doesn’t write back, it doesn’t mean he didn’t read what you wrote.
