The Pixar Exhibition features over 500 original art piece range from design sketches, concept paintings, paper art, sculptures and storyboards. All the art work are categories by its tittle from the very 1st “Toy story” to “Up” .Unfortunately… we can only take photos outside the exhibition hall

From all the art works, i personally enjoy all the doodles and rough design sketches most some of them are with little notes and thoughts from the artist when they design the characters, environment and stories (its fun to see that). Because i think Its important for us not only to appreciate the nicely painted art work but also to understand and feel it. its always interesting to feel what the artist felt when they are designing the characters or creating the story, and its also great to feel the passion of the artist when they are challenging the difficulties in 3d feature film or pushing the boundaries of story telling.

One more thing to point out is, there is a lcd tv that runs a 45 min video when we 1st enter the exhibition hall, the video was great and it has a lot of interview from the great artists that mainly shares about their thoughts and experience during the productions and also creative process : ) and many of the audience miss out this content (because there is no chairs in front of the tv plus everyone is so eager to look at all the original art work.) Luckily me and some of my team mate sat on the floor and watch the whole video because its really inspiring and its not in any dvd ( the making content ) so far. So if YOU are going , do not miss out this one, its worth the time sitting on the floor

The Pixar animation exhibition starts on April 2 and ends on June 27, its the only stop in Southeast Asia, so for all the Cg artists do not miss it!. Enjoy!!!

Below are some random photos that took by our artist during the trip Backpackers hotel was FUN !!!

i hope everyone is enjoying the trip and also inspired + motivated! Thanks Pixar for having such a great exhibition and also Thanks Jin Liang, Jia Shiow and Cathy for organizing this little trip for us

Cheers!

It was our 花花公子-Yong Hiao and Jacky’s birthday and we had a steamboat party at boss’ house. Ah Yeng (Yong Hao’s gf) gave us a big surprise by joining us because of “accidentally” missed her bus back to Singapore that night. I’m sure Yong Hao planned for that… haha~

It was a fun night, nice to meet Jacky with her wife and son. The food was nice, thanks to Yong Hao for the treat! And also to Cathy and Boss for messing up their place. hehe~
