ROLE: Story Manager

Bugged was a short film that aired as part of the TV mini-series Tales From Radiator Springs. Bugged was directed by Jeremy Lasky and written by Rob Gobbs, Nick Sung, and Jeff Pidgeon. These were fun little shorts that were created by the story team spitballing ideas in the story room, and then we’d pitch them to John Lasseter. Out of all the ideas, 4 of them became short films.

The animation and effects were done at Pixar Canada, the studio that handled most of Pixar’s ancillary work. Where Development, Story, and Editorial were done on Pixar’s main campus in Emeryville.

Synopsis: Red gets a little buggy visitor while tending to the firehouse garden.
