Animation World Magazine may have had a first look at Pixar’s newest creation, "Presto" but the Pixar blog has now revealed the poster. "Presto" will make its debut this summer as an opener for the Pixar animated feature "Wall E" about a robot who finds his true purpose. "Presto" will also be shown at the International Animation Festival in Hiroshima Japan in August.
Presto is directed by Doug Sweetland, the animator who’s worked on every Pixar feature up to Ratatouille.
The film is tells the story of Presto, the magician and Alec, his rabbit in a hat who plots revenge against the overbearing and cruel magician. While the rabbit in a hat trick brings Presto great fame and fortune, Alec is left to languish in a cage, a carrot just out of reach. Alec is decides not to take Presto’s abuse any longer and rebels giving the magician a taste of his own mean spirited medicine.
The world premiere of Women in Boxes (the only documentary about Magic’s Better half) will take place June 19th and 21st at the Cinevegas film Festival.
