The new line of Lightyear toys is fantastic. So...ofc I had to bring them to life with stop motion. This was so fun to create!
Happy 26th anniversary, Toy Story! I had to recreate my favorite poster with the toys to celebrate. Super excited that we’re getting Lightyear next year! Can’t wait to learn more Buzz / Star Command lore.
Happy 25th anniversary, #ToyStory! Still can’t believe that the film that launched one of the greatest franchises of all time hit theaters 25 years ago today. Crazy. I can vividly remember popping in the VHS tape over and over as a kid.
Instead of carving a pumpkin, I made a Mr. Pumpkin Head!
“You ever think about getting out there, seeing the world?” 🎡 If I could see any new Toy Story short, special, graphic novel, etc., I would want to see something on these toys. I love Woody’s new carnival crew. I love how they were all previously “lost” if you will, and have found a new purpose together.
Like the kind-hearted robot he is, WALL•E helped me clean up my desk! 😆 I had a lot of fun animating this figure!
Alien, you’re not scary-not even a little, but you are FEARLESS. 😆 Have you picked up any of the new Alien Remix figures by Mattel?
The world’s in a scary and tough place right now, but we’ll get through this. Wash your hands, make healthy choices, be kind to one another, and stay home (if you are able). ✌️
Same energy. 🤓 Age old question, but who’s your favorite, Woody or Buzz?
Happy Valentine’s Day! I hope you enjoy the day with your Forky or Karen Beverly. If you’re single—no biggie—happy Friday! FUN FACT: Bonnie’s Knife character is named “Karen Beverly” after #ToyStory4 producer Mark Nielsen’s sisters Karen and Beverly!
My brother and I recreated Toy Story 3 frame-for-frame
The project began around 8 years ago. Little by little, we achieved our goal of creating a tribute to our favorite film, Pixar’s Toy Story 3. Here is a side-by-side example of what we created:
You may remember a Tumblr post about a “Real Life Andy’s Room.” That was my brother and I, and it was created for this project. Here is an example of what the room looks like in the film:
This project has been an incredible learning experience in stop motion animation, cinematography, set/prop building, patience--you name it. You can view the full-length, fan-made recreation here:
Forky spotted a friend on the road! He calls him T. R. Ash. 😆 Forky is a fantastic character in #ToyStory4. Such a fresh and creative addition to the franchise. I can’t wait to see the Forky Asks a Question series on Disney+!
♫ You came along, changed my life, fixed what was broken in me. ♫
Can’t wait to watch Forky’s story unfold in Toy Story 4. To tide myself over until then, I decided to try my hand at animating him...in stop motion!
“God only knows what I’d be without you.” The full Toy Story 4 trailer was so incredibly beautiful. I’m really enjoying this mentorship-like relationship between Woody and Forky. Such a unique idea. What did you think of the trailer?
Stopped by my local carnival to play Star Adventurer. Which prize should I try for? Just kidding! Just picked up the #ToyStory4 Talking Ducky and Bunny plush by @shopdisney! These two are fantastic.
Woody’s been through a lot, and I can’t wait to see what’s waiting for him in Toy Story 4. How many of these items from Woody’s adventures do you recognize?
