Pixar hired Deakins as a visual consultant on their post-human robot odyssey, and since then he's also worked with the animation teams behind How to Train Your Dragon, Rango, Puss in Boots, and Rise of the Guardians. While Deakins is always modest about his role in the films, his influence shines through in fascinating ways, particularly in the different ways that the films incorporate shadows and negative space into a genre that tends to value over-saturated imagery. It's a thrilling side-career for a cinematographer who has already given cinema some of its most defining visual moments.
