I'm starting to think about a holiday animation, and decided to look for some inspiration in the movies. I couldn't think of a Pixar holiday animation, so I asked the librarians. They found a great one from Disney Animation Studios, not Pixar but executive produced by John Lasseter, the Pixar genius who is apparently sharing time between the two, and is very hands-on. The title is "Prep and Landing", done for a half hour TV show for ABC (22 minutes run time). Very funny bits for kids and adults, plus voice acting by Dave Foley ("News Radio", "A Bug's Life"), Sarah Chalke ("Scrubs"). The DVD has a couple of shorts that add voice acting by Betty White ("The Golden Girls", "Boston Legal"). Here is a preview:

Here is an excerpt from one of the shorts, "Tiny's Big Adventure":

Funny stuff that I'd never heard of, almost as good as my alltime favorite Pixar short, "Jack-Jack Attack" (based on "The Incredibles"). Thanks to the librarians. And no, Prep and Landing are not names of characters, but the North Pole Dept. responsible for readying houses for Santa's visit.
