Manchot royal, le retour
Perdu au milieu de l'océan Austral, sous les 40èmes rugissants, l'archipel Crozet abrite trois millions de manchots royaux, la moitié de la population mondiale. Contrairement à la plupart des oiseaux de haute mer, cette espèce est en pleine expansion. Pourtant, toutes les étapes de son cycle reproducteur sont autant d'épreuves à surmonter. Le film retrace ces différentes étapes : recherche et reconnaissance d'un partenaire parmi des milliers de semblables, pénurie de place, intemp

In this talk I will survey a number of current and recent projects underway in the Research Group at Pixar. To set context for the discussion I'll begin with a brief overview of our production pipeline.

'Sydney an der Wupper' is a film featuring the Australian dancer Meryl Tankard. Tankard goes through a day in the city, riding the subway, taking a singing lesson, and bathing at a public house.
