VOTD: The Making of WALL-E

The Making of WALL-E by Disney

The Pitch: Last month we posted the b-roll footage from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull to show you a bugs eye view of the behind the scenes production of a movie. Today I bring you the B-roll footage from the making of WALL-E. And while they are technically the same thing, the WALL-E footage is completely different because of the way the animation process works. It’s also fascinating to see the guys at Pixar making the magic. The first clip (above) shows concept art creation, environment design, Stanton directing the animators (a must watch), creating the music and sound design and Roger Deakins consulting the cinematography. The second clip (below) focuses on Stanton’s directing of the voice cast and the computer design work that went into creating some of the characters.

    These guys really have some unbelievable technology at their disposal. And that one dude has a sick Kingdom Come Superman figure. Wall-E looks pretty cool, can't wait to see it!

    The background music in the videos is way too loud!! Please upload footage without the background music. I can't hear what the people in the videos are saying!
  • i totally agree about the background music. i had to keep checking it wasnt coming from another site i had opened.
  • The background music is embedded in the file. I am unable to remove it. But I can still here the conversations fine...

    God, I really love this stuff. Thanks for sharing!

    (BG music tip: try earpods, and only use the left side. The music seemed to be in the right channel, the dialogue in the left?)
  • Sam
    Yes, the audio of the video is 100% to the left and the bg music is 100% to the right. So you can just pan (balance) to the left and hear only that channel
  • Roger Deakins!? WOW! I didn't think I could get any more excited about Wall-E!

    I think that's pretty amazing that they brought him in to consult (by the looks of it), I wonder if that sort of thing's been done on any other animated films.

  • Ben Burtt is amazing! I'd love to see more of him just doing his thing.
  • BK
    For those who are complaining about the loud music, adjust the left-right pan on your sound settings. The audio tracks are stereo.
