As part of the upcoming Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment Blu-ray release
of '
Monsters, Inc.' - which is due to hit store shelves on November
10th - four of the original filmmakers came together to discuss how the film was
developed. Bob Peterson, Pete Docter, Lee Unkrich, and Darla Anderson all
participated in a "Filmmakers Round Table" and we have an exclusive clip of that
discussion and a taste what you can expect to see next Tuesday when the Blu-ray
is released.
As you can see from the clip above, Mike and Sulley - the animated stars of the
film - went through several design iterations before the folks at Pixar settled on
the two monsters that can be seen on the cover of the Blu-ray. Having watched
the entire round table, I can tell you that there is a ton of interesting information
about the development of the story and film-making in general.
