Concept paintings by Mary Blair for Disney’s PETER PAN.
“I forget people after I kill them,” Peter Pan says in PETER & WENDY. Was that in the Disney version?
One of the great “lost movies”: in the 1960s, there was talk of making a live action Peter Pan movie with Audrey Hepburn as Peter Pan, Peter Sellers as Captain Hook, and Hayley Mills as Wendy. The world was robbed of something wonderful there...

Anyone know who bought these? They were under Peter Pan return to never land on worth point and were sold in 2017. They are NOT from Peter Pan return to never land. They are from a scrapped TinkerBell movie. Looking to buy a clear scan of them from whoever bought them or the original if possible. Thanks.

I’m trying to see where to lean my art style towards as I develop as an artist. These are my favorite artists, and where I draw the most inspiration. Vote below, so I can see where to continue to develop.
"Day and Night": Pixar's Mesmerizing Blend of 2D and 3D Animation Shaina Tranquilino December 29, 2023 Pixar's "Day and Night" is a unique and captivating short film that effortlessly blends traditional 2D animation with innovative 3D animation techniques. Released in 2010, this six-minute masterpiece takes the audience on a mesmerizing journey through contrasting perspectives of day and night. Directed by Teddy Newton, known for his work as a storyboard artist on several Pixar films, "Day and Night" tells the story of two characters named Day and Night who meet unexpectedly while going about their daily routines. However, what sets this film apart from others is that these characters are not animated in the usual way. Instead, they are portrayed as transparent figures filled with vibrant landscapes representing either day or night. The central theme of the film revolves around the juxtaposition between opposites: light and dark, warmth and coldness, noise and silence. The contrast is visually striking as viewers witness daylight scenes projected onto the character Day's figure while nighttime scenes are cast upon Night's silhouette. This clever design creates an immersive experience, allowing us to observe the world through each character's perspective simultaneously. As Day and Night encounter various situations throughout the film, they begin to realize that their differences can coexist harmoniously. They learn to appreciate one another's unique qualities rather than fearing or resenting them. Through this message of acceptance and understanding, Pixar manages to convey a profound lesson about embracing diversity. What truly makes "Day and Night" exceptional is its ability to tell a story without using any dialogue. The narrative unfolds solely through visual storytelling accompanied by an enchanting musical score composed by Michael Giacchino. From breathtaking sunrise sequences to dazzling fireworks displays at night, every frame is meticulously crafted to evoke emotions within the audience. Moreover, "Day and Night" showcases Pixar's technical brilliance by seamlessly blending hand-drawn animations with computer-generated imagery (CGI). This combination breathes life into the characters while maintaining a distinct artistic style reminiscent of classic hand-drawn animation. The result is a visually stunning film that pushes the boundaries of what can be achieved in animated storytelling. With its innovative approach, "Day and Night" earned critical acclaim and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. It stands as a testament to Pixar's commitment to pushing creative boundaries while delivering heartfelt stories that resonate with audiences of all ages. Pixar's "Day and Night" is a remarkable short film that captivates viewers through its blend of traditional and 3D animation techniques. Through stunning visuals, absence of dialogue, and a powerful message of acceptance, it takes us on a journey where opposites collide and coexist harmoniously. This six-minute masterpiece demonstrates Pixar's ability to push artistic boundaries while delivering emotionally resonant narratives.
