Monsters, Inc. 2001 computer animated comedy film produced by Pixar studios is our inspiration for this unit .
Classroom resources
At Pixar the design process begins with hand-drawn drawings, usually done with pens, pencils and paint before anything is done on the computer. Each character has multiple ideas sketched to work out how they move and talk before the final decision is made on what they will actually look like. Then these characters in the film will be sculptured with clay during the design process. This is all before the computer animation starts. Choose a monster design from the above image carousel and draw it into your VAPD to practice your drawing skills.
