Inside Pixar Studios! Secret Rooms, Movie Magic & Disney Hot Takes

Tim got the chance to step inside Pixar Animation Studios, and this week we’re taking you along! We’re talking about what it’s actually like inside Pixar’s Emeryville campus, from the iconic Luxo lamp and Pixar ball to original concept art, Cars models, secret rooms, recording studios, movie memorabilia and some pretty incredible pieces of Disney history. Tim shares some of the coolest details from his Pixar tour, including how artists turn real-world research into animated worlds, what’s hiding around the Pixar campus, and what it was like seeing the creative process behind movies like Cars, Toy Story, Hoppers and more. Plus, we talk about Tim’s first ride in a driverless Waymo through San Francisco before putting some Disney favorites to the ultimate test: overrated, underrated or appropriately rated? Dole Whip. Figment. Fantasmic. Disney churros. Character dining. “it’s a small world.” Popcorn buckets. And yes, the Main Street Electrical Parade. We have opinions. 😂 🎧 Welcome to Episode 142 of the Dreaming of Disney Podcast! ✨ Join the Main Street Dreamers community and check out our latest merch: mainstdreamers.com
