The latest film from Disney and Pixar, “Soul” was released on December 25th, 2020, and was met with a generally positive reaction from audiences. Many praised the film for its writing and storytelling, its emotional musical score, and the art of the characters and environments.

To give us a look into what went into bringing “Soul” to life, several artists from Pixar took to their personal Twitter accounts to share a few examples of the art processes and break down what went into creating some of these massive environments, such as The Great Before.

The Twitter account @JunHanCho1, who was the Set Supervisor for the film, began with sharing some inspiration behind some of the New York sets, such as a house seen in the background being inspired by a shading artist from Pixar!

For example in the scene where Joe rushes towards his audition towards the subway, the yellow house to the right is inspired by the shading artist, Jamie’s grandmother’s house. #PixarSoul #PixarSoulSets

He also goes onto share one of the modeling guides the artists used, making sure to note that a “sense of Jazz” should be incorporated into the prop and set pieces.

Another artist, Julian Fong or @levork, created a massive thread that went into great detail about lightning the characters and environments.

While the thread gets a bit technical, if you happen to be interested in 3D art, it’s fascinating to read about how the team went about lightning a volumetric set.

And if you do happen to interested in the nitty gritty and want more detail, @RyanMichero, a Lighting Lead for Pixar, followed up with his own thread discussing the tech behind the movie.

The soul characters are made almost entirely of volume primitives (at Pixar, saved in the f3d format), with the sole (ahem) exception of the eyes. We did experiments with volumetric eyes, but we were concerned we would never be able to get the eyes looking "right" #PixarSoul

@JunHanCho1 was even kind enough to share an early working version of the walkway to The Great Beyond.

He also made a note of some Easter Eggs that can be found in the Hall of Everything.

The Hall of Everything has at least one thing from all our of past Pixar movies. Except A Bug's Life (sorry) we didn't have time to remodel something from that (which I now regret.) #PixarSoul #PixarSoulSets

It takes a small army to create a 3D film, and Pixar employs some of the best artists in the industry. It’s exciting to see how many of them took time to share a “behind the scenes” look into what went into creating the movie, and we’ll be sure to pay extra attention to those details next time we watch “Soul.”
