30 Seconds of Pixar’s Partly Cloudy

Partly Cloudy

Want to see 30 seconds of Pixar’s next movie? I’m not talking about Up, I’m talking about the short film (which will be attached to Up), titled Partly Cloudy. The directorial debut of storyboard artist and animator Peter Sohn (he also provided the voice of Emile in Ratatouille) tells the story of where babies come from.

“Everyone knows that the stork delivers babies, but where do the storks get the babies from? The answer lies up in the stratosphere, where cloud people sculpt babies from clouds and bring them to life. Gus, a lonely and insecure grey cloud, is a master at creating “dangerous” babies. Crocodiles, porcupines, rams and more–Gus’s beloved creations are works of art, but more than a handful for his loyal delivery stork partner, Peck. As Gus’s creations become more and more rambunctious, Peck’s job gets harder and harder. How will Peck manage to handle both his hazardous cargo and his friend’s fiery temperament?”

Partly Cloudy will be attached to Up which hits theaters on May 29th, 2009.

  • In 3D, that's going to make my eyes explode with joy.

    They're throbbing as it is.
  • I love the concept, sounds like it is going to be an adorable short. Wow animation has come a long way - I like how this still retains some of that kinda old school 'cartoon' quality about it. Those little puppies are going to be a hit with the kids.

    best news = this is only a short film
  • damnit, those kittens and puppies are damn cute.
  • Palmer
    That looks really great.

    30 seconds is not enough...I demand more.
  • OMG, that is the best sneak peak I've seen so far. Pixar is the best on 3D.
  • Peter
    Could this short be better than the feature film itself? So far, the ideas and visuals from Partly Cloudy are far more interesting to me than those of Up (not to say Up doesn't look awesome).
  • Nice clip, only a bit short. (Perhaps they could show us the next time, how storks manage to deliver baby elephants or hippos... :-) )
  • I just saw UP and I saw this short film. They were both great. I laughed so hard with "partly cloudy" I mean I have seen two hour films that were not this funny or good. UP was an amzing film.
