Pixar's UP Storyboards
Here are some wonderful storyboards from Pixar's UP. With the amount of storage space on Blu-rays now, it would be fantastic if Disney could have an option to view the film as a full screen Animatic (animated storyboards). And I'm not talking a small little pop up window, I’m talking full screen... As you can see, from these delightful storyboards it would be great to see that happen.

Very cool! Any idea who the artist is for these?
This is a total guess, but it looks like Ronnie Del Carmen did them.
I'm actually wondering if they did these digitally and printed it later or did they draw all of it traditionally? The background looks digitally copied. These are AWESOME though. I love the style so much! :) Thanks for putting these up!
Awesome! Thanks for sharing these. You've got a great point about having the full final (or even multiple versions) animatic available in the special features. I've wondered the same thing, but figured a magician revealing how a trick is performed would take away from the illusion itself. I'd still pay double for a set with a full animatic special feature!
All the Best,
Look at the first board. Is it me or do these look almost like frames of animation themselves? The girl pins a badge on the boy over half a dozen drawings. Wouldn't a normal board do this in just a couple of drawings? They really plan things out at Pixar huh!
Wonderful storyboards! I enjoyed every single frame. Thanks for sharing!
It's a shame all these beautiful storyboards don't see the daylight outside the studios very often since I'm sure there are many of those who'd love to be able see them. And the artists who drew them deserve their work to be seen by bigger audience. :)
I'd find the possibility to watch the whole movie in an animatic form really awesome. It would be interesting and educational. I'm an studying animation in an university and even after seeing these ones from UP, I felt like I learned something new. So I feel that an animatic special feature would teach students more about storytelling as well. And not only animation students but everyone who is interested in this stuff. :)
So in short: YES. An animatic special feature would be great!
O wow, very detailed storyborad, nicely made... oh boy! cant wait to se the movie!
Lovely. Thank you so much!
I would love to see The Animatics too. I don't like how a lot of the Special Features on Blu-ray are now in a small little unmovable window that you can only view while watching the movie. On a normal TV you can hardly see what's happening. If you’re going to show artwork, show the artwork! I don't get why they always show the Artwork small or have it go past the screen so quickly. It's almost as if they are afraid to show it. I hope someone important from Disney or Pixar can do something about it, and I hope they are reading all of this.
P.S. Please no more trivia or useless games for the Special features. Show us the Art! Show us your talented Artists work! Give them some credit!
Very fun and entertaining boards. Thanks for sharing them!
Awesome!!!!!!!!
very cool~~~who is the artist drawing this?????????????
I am exciting now~~~:P
very attractive , unknow will come to project when is Thailand ? ,
wow thanks for posting these!
If I remember correctly (I don't have it at hand), the Spirited Away DVD has the storyboards as an alternate angle, so you can switch between the storyboard and the film at any moment.
These are great! They really cover some minute parts of the acting even at this stage. Excited for the movie now~ :]
That's just awesome. Is the artbook released yet? I'm gonna put this one up as my desktop wallpaper and stare at them all day long....:D

the animatic thing would be an interesting idea.. they had those on the miyazaki movies.. of course.. they had had a seperate dvd for it...
SPOILER ALERT!
The main reason you won't see a full animatic released on DVD/Blu-ray is because they often use music and sfx from other movies that would take years to secure licensing for... Also one thing to keep in mind is that not all the boards are going to look like these very finished examples. theres a very wide range of finish depending on time and need for a more polished board.
Thanks for posting these! very nice!
They don't need to use the old music or sound recording from the animatic. They would just use the sound from the movie.
And I think a lot of people would know that all the storyboards would not be as rendered out as much as these. I would still love to see the whole show as an animatic too.
I love the storyboard animatic idea. It would also be very helpful for aspiring storyboard artists, such as myself.
Anyways, these storyboards look pretty great. Can't wait to see UP!
"They don't need to use the old music or sound recording from the animatic. They would just use the sound from the movie. "
It would never match up as the timing will be very different. They would have to go back and re-edit the animatic.
Pixar artist Derek Thompson has a Gnomon DVD that shows much of the animatic creating process. Highly recommended!
