Carlos Baena

Carlos directed some of my favorite episodes of the series!

I put together Wondla mashup below for fun, inspired by one of my favorite music tracks from gifted Wondla composer and friend @joyngiaw.bsky.social. The track is a sneak peak from the Season 3 album which is released next week as well. Enjoy it and go watch the show.

How about a creepy scary horror short with heart for Halloween? "La Noria" by animator Carlos Baena of Pixar and ILM. It's really good

ハロウィンにぴったりの、心温まる不気味で怖いホラー短編はいかがでしょうか？ピクサーとILMのアニメーター、カルロス・バエナによる「ラ・ノリア」。とても素晴らしい作品です。字幕は必要ありません。

La Noria — NightWheel Pictures Animated short film written/directed by Carlos Baena

On Halloween six years ago, La Noria was released. A short film that remains deeply personal to me. It was the film that made me leave behind the safety of Pixar twelve years ago and take a leap into the unknown. Every year, around this time, I’m reminded why that decision continues to feel right.

Sept 8th is Star Trek Day! Star Trek has been, and always shall be, the most important creative work in my life. It has brought me so much joy. I took 10 mins to re-watch 765874 Unification and it hit me just as powerfully as the first time. Happy Star Trek Day everyone! youtu.be/mgOZFny7F50?...

AppleTV+'s 'Absolute Masterpiece' With 83% RT Audience Score Drops Pics & Season 3 Return Date AppleTV+ is filled with quality shows, but many of them end up being extremely underrated.

Excited to see the third and final season of WondLa released soon. I had the privilege of mostly working on this last chapter alongside an incredible team at Skydance Animation and ICON. Can’t wait for audiences to experience where the story ends.

Apple TV+ Debuts Sneak Peek of the Final Season of ‘WondLa’ – Nerds That Geek One particular truth that rings true and comes up often in the world of storytelling, is that every story has its end. Sometimes that ending comes in an abrupt manner, sometimes its unexpected, but...

promotional picture of Wondla from apple tv. It shows Eva a brown human girl in the front. She's in a ball like object with two other humans. Around them are aliens, one bald blue alien with hairy eyebrows and a pronounced nose and the other a 6 legged orange friend big enough to ride on, who are tied up and look sad. There is also an alien moth in the background with sharp teeth.

Been watching Wondla and it's soo good! Love the worldbuilding here! Was nervous when New Attica was introduced because the first season was all she's the last human and i really wanted her to find a place in this new world but this season is going really nicely. #sarah'stvadventures
