Another Fan Fiction by the Producer

The producer of Bystander would like to cordially invite you to read another work of fan fiction about Bystander. This story takes place after the film. Not a prologue per se. More like a sequel. Kind of. You'll see what we mean.

Corn Facts with Lily Smith

Hi all! We have a special guest writer of this week's blog post: super awesome background artist Lily Smith. Lily knows a lot about corn. These are some of the things Lily knows:

Part of your DNA is corn.

The average American consumes seventy two bushels of corn a year. Only two of those
bushels actually look and taste like corn.

Marching On

Everyone is hard at work here at the Bystander factory!  Gears are turning, pumps are pumping, and thing-a-ma-jigs are doing their thing.  All is well.

The Beginning, Part II

We're back! After a refreshing 3 week break, the Bystander crew is hard at work once again.

This is the most exciting thing he's ever done.

The End, Part I

We're done! 

Thundering Thanks This Thursday

Hello world!


I would like to take today to thank everyone who has contributed to this production. We have an amazing crew and other people supporting us. Also it's Thanksgiving. Plus now that I've said it here, we don't have to do it in our Oscar speech. But seriously, thanks. Enough cheeseball, here's Dave murdering a turkey.

Rocking that sweater vest like a boss

In other news, Bystander was featured in this quarter's North by Northwestern magazine! Pick up a copy or read the article here. 

We're all taking a week off work, but there's still one more week of animating before winter break. Have a great Black Friday everyone!

Racecar / Fan Fic Prequel

In this blog post, we're going to do something different. If you thought last week's haikus were out there, wait till you read on. We've written a description of one of the film's scenes...as a palindrome!
