A new animated movie that echoes emotions is on its way to the silver screen. This is Pixar's latest flick: "Inside Out."
According to csmonitor.com, a trailer for Pixar's 15th creation has been released. It shows how an 11-year-old girl named Riley makes sense of her feelings and experiences in a new place where they've moved in.
Variety noted director Pete Docter's words that Riley Anderson is not the main character in the story but its setting. The story takes place in her subconscious "where a crew of anthropomorphized emotions manage how the girl feels at any given moment from a control panel that looks something like the flight deck of the Starship Enterprise."
Kaitlyn Dias is the voice behind Riley Anderson and Kyle MacLachlan and Diane Lane behind her parents, while feelings including Joy was voiced by actress Amy Poehler, Fear by Bill Hader, Anger by Lewis Black, Disgust by Mindy Kaling, and Sadness by Phyllis Smith.
According to Variety, the director of "Inside Out" revealed that it started in a "very personal and relatable place."
"It's based on a strong emotional experience I had watching my daughter grow up," Docter said after he has observed that his daughter Elie's childhood joy disappeared when she turned 12.
"There is something that is lost when you grow up," he added recalling moody and withdrawn responses.
Reportedly, the movie portrays a system that is "intuitive and slightly retro" but Docter and his team made things comprehensible to the audience.
"One of the big things in this film has been simplifying and making things 'gettable,'" Docter said.
Docter also acknowledge that as the movie-making progressed he discovered another personal revelation.
"I thought I was making a film about my daughter, but the truth is, I'm more making a film about myself in relation to my daughter and understanding that. The film is told from a parent's point of view, and being a parent, I just sort of slipped into that, I guess. It's definitely made me think again about the way I grew up, my adolescence and even on a day-to-day basis what I'm doing and why."
Pixar's "Inside Out" is set to hit theaters June of 2015.
