Stumbled on these tonight.
Now that is cool beans! \m/
Wow, any idea when and where this is? I want a giant Luxo for my yard! Great find rachel!
You didn’t know? Have you not seen the behind-the-scenes extras??? That’s at Pixar Animation Studios itself! The giant Luxo isn’t for sale. It was made in Australia (as far as I know) and installed outside the ACMI in Melbourne for the Pixar: 20 Years of Animation Exhibit in 2007. Then they must have shipped it over to Pixar and that’s where it lives now.
I didn’t find those pictures, btw, the original poster did.
Ahh, my bad, great find CartoonBoy!
And I didn’t think it was for sale! XD It would just be really awesome!
That’s really cool, so they just kinda open the doors and showcase a bunch of their work or what? Is this an annual thing, or was it a one-time thing?
This is the first time I’ve heard of it, so only time will tell if Pixar Palooza becomes an annual event. The studio has a closed-door policy for tours, but there are ways of getting in a few times a year.
Yeah, I’m hoping to be one of those few at some point. It’d suck to travel to the studio, only to be turned down, but I really wanna take my chance. Too bad I dont have the money or resources to go there for quite a while, but maybe I’ll be able to get something going for me down the line.
Getting inside the lot would be so great, just to be inside those amazing gates.
