Henry Selick, director of “Coraline,” “The Nightmare Before Christmas” and “James and the Giant Peach,” will be making his way back to Disney, setting up shop at Pixar’s studio in Emeryville, CA.
Selick plans to write and direct original features along with adapting books. While he may be set up at Pixar, his films will continue to be produced as stop-motion animation.
No word on whether or not the films will be released under the Disney or Pixar name.
Pixar has revealed details for “Day & Night,” the short film that will play before Toy Story 3 beginning June 18. The short film is directed by Teddy Newton, who’s credits include Character Designer (The Incredibles, Presto), and Storyboard Artist (The Iron Giant). This will mark Newton’s Pixar directorial debut.
The official synopsis:
When Day, a sunny fellow, encounters Night, a stranger of distinctly darker moods, sparks fly! Day and Night are frightened and suspicious of each other at first, and quickly get off on the wrong foot. But as they discover each other’s unique qualities–and come to realize that each of them offers a different window onto the same world–the friendship helps both to gain a new perspective.
