Program Info: Randy Newman - Toy Story
Ever wonder what toys do when people aren’t around? Toy Story answers that question with a fantastic fun-filled journey, viewed mostly through the eyes of two rival toys—Woody, the lanky, likable cowboy, and Buzz Lightyear, the fearless space ranger.
Did You Know? Produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures in 1995, Toy Story was the first feature film to be entirely computer animated. Destined for greatness: The concept of Toy Story was based on a Pixar short film, Tin Toy, which was released in 1988 and won that year’s Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film. In the mark of a true cultural touchstone, Buzz Lightyear’s famous phrase, “To infinity, and beyond” was also used as a lyric in the bridge of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It).” In addition to writing the full orchestra score for Toy Story, Randy Newman also wrote three original songs. The film's signature tune, "You've Got a Friend in Me," was written in one day.
