Think you've seen everything Pixar has ever made? Think again. In December, the animation studio unveils more than 500 behind-the-scenes drawings, paintings, and sculptural models for an exhibit at New York's Museum of Modern Art. Pixar: 20 Years of Animation also features projected displays of the studio's movie landscapes and life-like cartoon eyes - and, if completed on time, a zoetrope that uses sculptures, a rotating platform, and a strobe light to create the illusion of continuous-motion animation of characters from Toy Story. Want more? Catch the preview of a new short, One Man Band. The film, about street musicians who take multitasking to extremes, is slated to appear in theaters next summer with Pixar's feature-length Cars. Get in line now, geeks!
