The Making of Pixar's Bao: a Production Panel
Abstract: “Bao” tells the story of an aging Chinese mom suffering from empty nest syndrome who gets another chance at motherhood when one of her dumplings springs to life as a lively, giggly dumpling boy. Dive into the production process of Pixar’s latest animated short, with a cross-disciplinary group of artists who brought first time director, Domee Shi’s vision to life. We’ll explore the early inspiration for the story, survey the art that inspired the look and cinematography of the short, examine the efforts that went into bringing graphically appealing characters to life, and discuss the challenges of creating a culinary delight for the eyes.
