In the recent times of Covid Isolation, the once incredibly simple world of children’s friendships has changed into anything but that. With the new world, it seems as if everything is virtual. Pixar’s newest animated film, Ron’s gone wrong, has arrived at the perfect time. Without even trying too, the film itself delves deep into this new narrative that kids today face. Ron’s Gone Wrong tells the story of Barney, a socially awkward middle-schooler and Ron, his new walking, talking, digitally-connected device, which is supposed to be his ‘Best Friend out of the Box.’ Ron’s hilarious malfunctions set against the backdrop of the social media age, launch them into an action-packed journey in which boy and robot come to terms with the wonderful messiness of true friendship. It’s a story that kids of all ages can enjoy, and the immersive animation style creates a beautiful cinematic experience that will touch the heart of any viewer. This idea was brought into action by an incredible team of artists and filmmakers who came together to bring this wonderful project to life. We had the opportunity to sit down with the team behind this amazing film to talk all about the impact of the film, the process, and everything in between. Check out our full conversation below!
