In many ways, Pixar’s 13th feature-length movie Brave (out June 22, 2012) ventures into new territory for the animation studio: The Scotland-set adventure film will be Pixar’s first fairy tale, its first picture starring a female protagonist, and its first film co-directed by a woman. EW.com has the first look at some of the concept art for the project, and we can also confirm that Reese Witherspoon will no longer voice the movie’s heroine, a tomboyish princess named Merida, due to scheduling issues. Instead, the character will be played by the (appropriately) Scottish actress Kelly Macdonald (No Country for Old Men, Boardwalk Empire)



Brave is set in the mystical Scottish Highlands, where Merida is the princess of a kingdom ruled by King Fergus (Billy Connolly) and Queen Elinor (Emma Thompson). An unruly daughter and an accomplished archer, Merida one day defies a sacred custom of the land and inadvertently brings turmoil to the kingdom. In an attempt to set things right, Merida seeks out an eccentric old Wise Woman (Julie Walters) and is granted an ill-fated wish. Also figuring into Merida’s quest — and serving as comic relief — are the kingdom’s three lords: the enormous Lord MacGuffin (Kevin McKidd), the surly Lord Macintosh (Craig Ferguson), and the disagreeable Lord Dingwall (Robbie Coltrane)



Brave is directed by Mark Andrews (the Oscar-nominated short One Man Band) and Brenda Chapman (The Prince of Egypt). Chapman conceived of the project, which was initially titled The Bear and the Bow, and was supposed to be its sole director — and Pixar’s first female director. But last October, it was reported that Pixar had replaced Chapman with Andrews. Now, although Andrews is presently in charge of guiding Brave across the finish line, both Andrews and Chapman will be credited as the movie’s directors, according to a Disney spokesman.

For Jim Mitchell, who served as co-visual effects supervisor along with Nick Davis on Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets, the challenge of completing 950 visual effects shots was a tight 13-month schedule. The workload was divvied up between five of the world’s top visual effects houses — San Rafael-based Industrial Light + Magic (ILM) joined London’s Moving Picture Company (MPC), Framestore CFC, The Mill and Cinesite — each awarded major visual effects sequences.

Atlanta: Artistic Image

Atlanta: Artistic Image, which garnered top honors at the Telly Awards for the design-driven Oscar packages they produced for TNT-LA in 2009 and 2010, recently completed three graphic packages for The 83rd Annual Academy Awards. AI tapped into its full roster of high-end services - from production to 3D modeling, animation, editing, compositing and color correction – to execute their complex concept, which took three-months to complete.

The Atlanta-based company’s collaborative team of multi-disciplined talent was tasked with the challenge of bringing a first-person, 3D feel to this year’s campaign, while still maintaining the classic ‘Oscar look’ that has become the show’s signature.

Ed Dye, president of Artistic Image and director of post production + design, came up with an innovative concept inspired by the public’s on-going fascination with the celebrity-studded awards show.
