Image
      Pixar has just announced there next film and I'm SOOOOO EXCITED!!! Its called Elemental and it takes place in a city filled with beings made up off the 4 elements. Water, Earth, Fire, and Air and it focuses on Wade, a go with the flow kinda guy made off water, and Ember, a hotheaded girl made off fire and how they realize they have a lot more in common then they thought. Its directed by Peter Sohn who previously Directed the hilarious Pixar short Partly Cloudy about a cloud and a Stork, and The Good Dinosaur. He also did the voice of Emille in Ratatouille, Squishy in Monsters University, that weird dinosaur with the animals in The Good Dinosaur, Ciccio in Luca, and Sox in the upcoming Lightyear.

Let me tell you the incredible story of how I became Theo.      So I follow the animator Madi Williams. I found out about her through the studio that she interns at, Pencilish. I found out about Pencilish through The Bancroft Brothers Animation Podcast which is also where I found out about the school Madi goes to and where one of the brothers, Tom, teaches, Lipcomb, which is a Christian liberal arts college. One day I saw a post on her Instagram that honestly changed my life. It was a casting call for people to send in auditions for her project, Redcapes, a storyboard pilot that took place in medieval times and was about these crime fighters called the Redcapes and the show focuses on the two off them, George and Dorcas. George, who is super tough and no nonsense bu...
