It’s All About Timing and Persistence

Pixar Animation Studios’ Bryn Imagire inspires young Filipino creatives

Bryn at Workshop

MANILA, June 21, 2018 -- To celebrate the release of Disney-Pixar’s “Incredibles 2” in the Philippines, Pixar Animation Studios Shading Art Director Bryn Imagire visited Manila and led an animation workshop.

Besides talking about the evolution of the animation process from 2004’s “The Incredibles” to this year’s “Incredibles 2,” Imagire, who has been with Pixar Animation Studios since 1996, also showed the students the process of creating images for the film, including how base costume designs for major characters are tweaked to create costumes for extras or background characters. Imagire serves as both shading art director and costume designer for “Incredibles 2.” “Usually, it takes about three hours to render one scene,” she said.

Directed by Brad Bird and featuring the voices of Craig T. Nelson (Mr. Incredible), Holly Hunter (Elastigirl), Samuel L. Jackson (Frozone), and Bird (Edna Mode), the sequel picks up right after the events of the first Incredibles movie. “Our movies are all about storytelling, all the decisions we have to make are about telling an incredible story,” said Imagire.

Students from different universities and young professional creatives attended the workshop, with some lucky few, even able to ask Imagire questions.
