How Pixar Turned Toy Story 5 Characters into Porsches with Bob Pauley
What happens when the world of Pixar’s Toy Story meets Porsche? Recorded live at the Porsche Barns during Monterey Car Week, CarStories sits down with Bob Pauley, Production Designer at Pixar Animation Studios, to explore the creative process behind one of Porsche’s most unexpected collaborations.
Pauley takes us behind the scenes of Toy Story 5 and the transformation of beloved characters into bespoke Porsche 911s— from the initial creative inspiration and character design to the details, materials, proportions, and automotive influences that brought each car to life.
Discover how Pixar’s storytelling and Porsche’s design language came together to create a collection of cars that are unmistakably Porsche, yet unmistakably Toy Story.
