And as the vehicle ages, so too does Sara (Nicki Bluhm) and her Dad (Kelley Stoltz).

The short involves a hungry baby sandpiper learning to overcome her fear of water. The inspiration came from less than a mile away from Pixar Studios in Emeryville, California, where Barillaro, a veteran Pixar animator, would run alongside the shore and notice birds by the thousands fleeing from the water but returning between waves to eat.Pixar's Piper, directed by Alan Barillaro, which pairs photorealistic settings and adorable character design to depict a newborn bird's attempts to fend for himself as the grownups find food on a waveswept beach. Piper unwittingly remains to be blasted by the water. The trauma is too much to endure, the tiny bird staying hidden away until a clan of hermit crabs shows it that there’s nothing to fear.
