Look for the behind the scene video of Paperman. This was an experimental blend of 2D and 3D. I'm no expert but since Paperman came along you have seen more 2D on 3D. First example that comes to mind is Maui animated tattoo's in Moana. So even though the style is not back I'm sure some elements are used even up to this day.
yea honestly, when I hear about what they were hoping to do with Wish, I thought the experiments with 2d and 3d that made Paperman were finally going to be turned into a full length movie. I was wrong.
Yea. With his anger rejecting the papers they were like, "You're going where we tell too weather you like it or not. You'll thank us later." XD how I like to see it
That was actually a really nice boss. He didn't say anything about how the guy had wasted a whole stack of forms, he just gave him new ones. I knew managers who would have fired people for that sort of thing.
Came back to watch this after so long , because of the Free Guy ending. i was in the theater and this music was playing and i knew i heard it before. stood till after the movie was over and saw this as the song in the credits..
A silver lining to Wish bombing is that it's brought a good amount of people's attention back to Paper man and going: "WHY DIDN'T THEY DO IT THIS WAY!?"
I really wish Disney and more Studios in general did more more of this 2D/ 3D hybrid style. There’s so much potential for it. A perfect balance of both styles. Hopefully with the success of Spiderverse more studios will be daring.
This is physically impossible because, for the record, this short film cost almost as much as a feature film that would be shown on the big screen. If a short film in this style literally cost as much as a big-budget theatrical release, then clearly a full-length animated film in this style has no chance of physically existing. Sorry to say so, but these are facts, and I must stress that I'm sorry to tell you this, because I too find this short film very beautiful.
The composer does the soundtrack for Free Guy, and I recognized the Paperman melody within some of those new songs. Was in tears! This song means a lot to me.
Just back from "Free Guy" and when the very first few notes started to play, I thought, I know this song, but where? Literally a few more notes later I almost cried out "PaperMan"! I so do love the short 6 minute film it came out . I used to watch it 3 times a day for months when it first came out. Once in the morning, then lunch, than at night. I had tears streaming down my cheeks in the theaters for "Free Guy". I'm not ashamed to say I am a 66 year old man who can be moved by Romance. Especially in the part where the paper airplane lifts off out of the flowers and she starts the chase. The only girl I ever kissed , I married. she passed away in 2009 after 30 years together. I think of her when I see this short. We got brought together kind of by accident. Back in 1980 while visiting my younger sister at her work, I held the front lobby door open for a very pretty young lady coming out. She smiled at me and said thank you making good eye contact. I didn't know her. 6 months later My sister (now a close friend of hers) had invited her over to my parents home not knowing I had met her and the young lady didn't know I was her Brother. She smiled and remembered I had held the door open for her. We talked, I asked for a date, she said yes. we haven't been apart since till her death .
Here is some retrospective. It has been 9 years from release to release of paper man to free guy. The idea of a sending a love letter is both represented in both forms of a literal paper airplane and an AI that has meaning has no destination. It's wonderful that the director still used the music for it's intended purpose despite the form difference; sending a love letter. For me 9 years ago, it was a time of understanding that the small people are usually the hard workers. And now 9 years since, I have seen even though it took 9 years for this music to hit the big screens, I can't believe it, that this song would hit the big screens. It shows you give 100% of your efforts or even a fraction of that 100% somewhere down the line someone else will recognize the hidden significance of the intention. The electric guitar is so particular and noticable that the first couple of times it shown itself in the movie. Welp time to go listen to paper man now. The part of sudden suspense where it fades out is my favorite part and I can't mistaken it.

"I lost my job, met your mother, got a job that I liked, now I have a beautiful family, and every day since then has been the happiest day of my life."
i like it , its like the paper airplane represents his affection for her and even though it doesn't get to her at first he keeps trying even when society tells him to give up and be quiet like his boss at work and when he thinks all hope is lost all the airplanes represent his heart which is telling his head to follow his heart
the story is sweet, but you also got to take into consideration the fact that stories like these are what show guys that even if the woman says no or just doesn’t want the affection that the men should keep persisting.
@@marianasoler6371 It doesn't look like she said no to anything she just thought it was a passing moment, and then she got on the train thinking she won't see him again. She had to get to her job, or interview. He didn't think he was going to see her again at first. It was meant to be because what are the odds that her office would be across from his, and the paper airplanes would follow him, and that one goes to her that flew in her face. It just shows that if things are meant to be they will happen you don't have to plan for anything, or persist if a woman wants you she will let you know.
The ending music when the paper plane starts leading the woman, that music is just perfect. Giving us an excitement and goosebumps everytime. I feel like it’s a perfect song to chase your lover in the big city.
I remember watching this in the cinema when it came out 10 years ago as a little child, and it has honestly stayed with me since it is such an incredible short film
I used to literally watch this everyday after school, in the car after a movie ended, this short would come after and I loved it, this is very nostalgic for me
Doesn't anyone else think that the guy kinda looks like Hector from Coco when he was alive? I mean look at the features, the big cartoony nose, the slick hair going down, slender, tall, ya know, Hector!
YES! I feel exactly the same way! And even better, you put a space between your eyes and your smile in your smiley face : ) I thought only I did that, but now I know there are other people in the world who understands the necessity for it. I was reading comments with my best friend and saw it and said "look at that little piece of glory!"
I’ve had the melody in my head for DAYS because of Free Guy. I knew I recognized it from somewhere but I couldn’t place it. I swear it was driving me insane until I finally realized about 10 minutes ago that the melody was from…. the short film that inspired my tattoo 🤦🏻♀️
When i first heard it played in the film, I was getting annoyed trying to figure out where I heard the music from before but then I finally remembered towards the end and came here after the film :D
“I want to fall in love with the content of a person’s character and the tenor of their soul - not just the way they look from across the room.”, my favorite quote that I feel in-tune with from 16 Personalities. 🥰
My favourite piece of film music that's not the Blade Runner & Social Network soundtracks. Spent so much time when I feel a little down putting this on, clears it all away
Paper represents work which seems to be dominating our lives. But in an ironic twist, paper is transformed into planes which provide him with the air support he needs to find that significant other. So, paper work and our careers are important but paper certainly worked to help him find true love. In short, life is not about paper work but there are more things greater and important in life like LOVE.
I wish I could accurately express how much love I have for this little six minute short. I really really really love Paperman so much and I'm glad I get to read all these comments of people who feel the same as I do.
Came back to this after so long cause it genuinely makes me feel good. A simple yet powerful love story. No hidden agenda, no must be said point to make on real world events. Just straight honest wholesome vibes.
She, still of work, out of stress and the monotony of life, is immerse enjoying the little things, so she need but a whispers to follow, he on the other hand, tired of work, stress, and even angry, needed a mountain of "signals" to snap out of it and even thou, he only realized in the end.... this thing is filled to the brim with simbolysm, its so simole yet managed to leave thousands entrailed and wondering what would be next, we are at the mere beggining of a lifetime for those 2.... dammit, we lost this disney years ago.... and its heartwrecking
Un petit avion en papier s'est posé par chez elle ce matin. Je lui ai lancé car elle me fait ressentir la même chose que dans ce joli court-métrage... ツ Ça commence par une rencontre qui bouleverse. Une rencontre qui donne une envie folle d'apprendre à connaître la personne dont on a pu seulement apercevoir la beauté de son âme et de son cœur. Mais voilà. Dans le film ou dans la vie, cette personne est déjà heureuse. Pourquoi s'embêter ? Et surtout, pourquoi l'embêter elle ? Elle n'a rien demandé, elle est déjà comblée. Alors voilà, un peu comme le personnage après qu'il a quitté son boulot et que sa muse soit hors de portée, je me sens perdu et démuni. Tout me dit d'abandonner... C'est à ce moment dans le film que les avions se mettent à virevolter. Rapporté à la vraie vie, c'est surtout une question de conviction. Quelque chose de viscéral qui défi la logique et la raison. Un pincement au cœur qui pousse à agir. Quelque chose d'humain, au fond. D'extrêmement maladroit, mais certainement pas malicieux. Abandonner c'est refuser la vie. Alors... Par-delà je ne peux que rêver. Espérer. Moi je serais sur ce quai de gare, prêt à la retrouver. Mais le sera-t-elle un jour ? Et si mon avion en papier qui s'est posé chez elle lui faisait naître de la curiosité ? Une petite voix qui lui dirait que non, sa vie n'est pas "faite" comme elle le dit, mais que sa vie est "stable". Que c'est un très bel accomplissement dans lequel elle peut très bien s'y complaire, mais que ce n'est pas forcément une finalité. La stabilité, c'est aussi un état qui permet de s'autoriser. Encore faut-il la curiosité. Je rêve d'avoir une place dans sa vie, même petite, mais certainement pas de changer la personne qu'elle est. Ni dans son cœur, ni dans sa situation personnelle. Très naïvement et comme dans le court-métrage, il n'est pas explicitement question d'amour ou d'amitié, juste d'une rencontre aboutie. J'aurais tant de choses à lui dire encore. Partager ses goûts musicaux, ses coups de cœur, ses joies, et ses peines aussi... Je suis convaincu qu'on a des choses à s'apporter. Convaincu qu'on peut tirer du positif de tout ça. Es-tu sur ce quai de gare, Kahina ?
@@sassiestkitten1 what a dumb comment. It's not even correct and even if it was, what does that have to do with anything. There's shorts on Disney plus that are 90 years old
Thanks to Free Guy I now know about this lovely little film. What a great bit of music too. Both the Free Guy ending and Paperman get my waterworks going. Love is special. Also the ending of this short has some Meet Joe Black vibes - as they meet in the coffee shop.
I haven't found the one for me yet but whenever I feel down because I haven't found my love I always watch this short because it gives me hope not to give up. Makes me shed some tears of hope as well. Just goes to show the power of beautiful story telling
before Your Name, there’s this one. Also, this is the representation of “let your purpose do all the work for you and good things will come”. Him making paper planes can mean working on your craft, doing things you really enjoy that gives you meaning in life and letting go of things that drags you down on becoming successful, and this leads you to meet the person that is right for you, and will love you.
Wow, it's been almost 10 yrs already since i first watched this. It's still one of the best for me! This is so special for me. I just listened to the backgrpund music as well. ❤
I first saw this in my Spanish 1 class in my freshman year of high school in 2014. We used it to practice vocabulary and comprehension. We used other short films for similar purposes, but this one was my favorite. That teacher was the best. Also, something about Free Guy stuck out to me when I watched it, guess I know why now.
I remember watching this on 9gag back in 2012. I downloaded the video but sadly I lost it from my hard drive. Finally hearing again the original music score. Thanks for the upload.
I never got over Paperman. I wish disney had followed this style.
i think they are still working on it and he technology behind it
They copied a short movie called "Signs" I guess Disney needed more inspiration on how to move forward with him. lmao
@@NoTokenAzn oh course he is going to say that. No true professional would want to call Disney a copycat or sue them over it.

Literally nothing was stopping Disney from using a phenomenal style like this for Wish

I was wrong.
@@cassualtea2040well, maybe they did, but failed in a miserable way
I was watching a video about wish and she talked about this!
@@vicmanelguapo1678 Could be. Or just corporate meddling.
I love how the girl was willing to follow the paper airplane from the get-go. Where as the guy was practically forced to go along with it.
Yea. With his anger rejecting the papers they were like, "You're going where we tell too weather you like it or not. You'll thank us later." XD how I like to see it
Paper : lets not waste your effort.
That was actually a really nice boss. He didn't say anything about how the guy had wasted a whole stack of forms, he just gave him new ones. I knew managers who would have fired people for that sort of thing.
Yeah. So he can fold more paper planes. What a nice boss
No, he just assumed he was already done working with his stack, so he just gave him a new one.
He seemed very angry though when he gave him the new stack.
@cecilia8515 Nah, he was just all "You finished. Good. Here's more. Back to work."
Get a life bro get a life
Came back to watch this after so long , because of the Free Guy ending. i was in the theater and this music was playing and i knew i heard it before. stood till after the movie was over and saw this as the song in the credits..
What's the song called
Same here!
The song progresses as Millie and guy's relationship grew and until keyes and millie finally got together which was so awesome!
Wow. Same exact reason I'm here rewatching this
I also did that!!!! The whole theater emptied, but I stayed and just sat there, listening to the absolutley breathtaking composition. God bless!
A silver lining to Wish bombing is that it's brought a good amount of people's attention back to Paper man and going: "WHY DIDN'T THEY DO IT THIS WAY!?"

Don’t forget Charlie Brown.
Klaus has an excellent style and it's completely 2d
Me too. I mean, Disney's current cast of character are all designed to look like 2D characters anyway.
It seems like this 2D/3D hybrid style is starting to become more of a thing, in large part thanks to Arc system works.

To me represents not letting our inner sparkle to go out, I thought i was the only one who cried to this song ...

Such a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing. She'll be holding the door for you in Heaven. You will be together again.
You two are still together, that I know. A beautiful love like that, transcends this life. And in the next one, you two will see eachother again. ❤️
@@tfcbioshock I feel it to this day. There has been no other.
"And that kids is how-"
"You met mommy?"
"No thats how I lost my job."

"And that's how I lost my job, a bunch of planes kidnapped me, and met mommy"
"I lost my job, met your mother, got a job that I liked, now I have a beautiful family, and every day since then has been the happiest day of my life."
That’s why in the military, you need to count on air support, and these paper planes provided it and helped me meet your mother!
Worth it 💯 percent
But of course a paper airplane would make a great wingman
Holy shit

Well Why Not?
She can be my wingman, anytime like in Top Gun!
This deserves more likes.
"...And that's how I got fired!"

Having a crush on someone does not instantly mean that you're a simp. It's like saying "yOu hAvE a GirLFRienD, WhAt A SiMp
best music in a film i've heard by far
My favourite piece of film music that's not the Blade Runner & Social Network soundtracks. Spent so much time when I feel a little down putting this on, clears it all away
It's in Free Guy too
Who else noticed that Christophe Beck used the same theme in Free guy?
I was so happy when I realized the music while watching FREE GUY.
@@Falkowskipllc 100% it gave you goose bumps.
Paper represents work which seems to be dominating our lives. But in an ironic twist, paper is transformed into planes which provide him with the air support he needs to find that significant other. So, paper work and our careers are important but paper certainly worked to help him find true love. In short, life is not about paper work but there are more things greater and important in life like LOVE.
I wish I could accurately express how much love I have for this little six minute short. I really really really love Paperman so much and I'm glad I get to read all these comments of people who feel the same as I do.
Man, I love the new movie "Free Guy"
If you are destined to have a girlfriend, magical coincidences will happen.
That's why I'm single.
Find one yet?
Doesn't mean it can't, or won't happen, so long as you're open and willing to the possibility.
Ouch
I needed a laugh. Thanks.
You’ll find her someday, mate. Never give up.
Not a single word was spoken, yet, we understood love, the universal language!
Doesn’t the girl look like Suki from Avatar?
Omigosh yeeesss
It could be her in other universe. :O
I thought she looked like peggy carter from captain america
YES
Yes!😂😍
Came back to this after so long cause it genuinely makes me feel good. A simple yet powerful love story. No hidden agenda, no must be said point to make on real world events. Just straight honest wholesome vibes.
I remember watching this film when I was in 6th grade!! Ahhhh the memories.... This was my favourite short film, still is, in fact!!
I remember watching this after wreck it Ralph. It’s always been my favorite.
Absolutely loved this when fursr saw it at cinema....was glad when ut won tbe Oscar.
Have never forgotten it ❤
She, still of work, out of stress and the monotony of life, is immerse enjoying the little things, so she need but a whispers to follow, he on the other hand, tired of work, stress, and even angry, needed a mountain of "signals" to snap out of it and even thou, he only realized in the end.... this thing is filled to the brim with simbolysm, its so simole yet managed to leave thousands entrailed and wondering what would be next, we are at the mere beggining of a lifetime for those 2.... dammit, we lost this disney years ago.... and its heartwrecking
Un petit avion en papier s'est posé par chez elle ce matin. Je lui ai lancé car elle me fait ressentir la même chose que dans ce joli court-métrage... ツ
Ça commence par une rencontre qui bouleverse. Une rencontre qui donne une envie folle d'apprendre à connaître la personne dont on a pu seulement apercevoir la beauté de son âme et de son cœur.
Mais voilà. Dans le film ou dans la vie, cette personne est déjà heureuse. Pourquoi s'embêter ? Et surtout, pourquoi l'embêter elle ? Elle n'a rien demandé, elle est déjà comblée.
Alors voilà, un peu comme le personnage après qu'il a quitté son boulot et que sa muse soit hors de portée, je me sens perdu et démuni. Tout me dit d'abandonner...
C'est à ce moment dans le film que les avions se mettent à virevolter.
Rapporté à la vraie vie, c'est surtout une question de conviction. Quelque chose de viscéral qui défi la logique et la raison. Un pincement au cœur qui pousse à agir. Quelque chose d'humain, au fond. D'extrêmement maladroit, mais certainement pas malicieux. Abandonner c'est refuser la vie. Alors...
Par-delà je ne peux que rêver. Espérer. Moi je serais sur ce quai de gare, prêt à la retrouver. Mais le sera-t-elle un jour ?
Et si mon avion en papier qui s'est posé chez elle lui faisait naître de la curiosité ? Une petite voix qui lui dirait que non, sa vie n'est pas "faite" comme elle le dit, mais que sa vie est "stable". Que c'est un très bel accomplissement dans lequel elle peut très bien s'y complaire, mais que ce n'est pas forcément une finalité. La stabilité, c'est aussi un état qui permet de s'autoriser. Encore faut-il la curiosité.
Je rêve d'avoir une place dans sa vie, même petite, mais certainement pas de changer la personne qu'elle est. Ni dans son cœur, ni dans sa situation personnelle. Très naïvement et comme dans le court-métrage, il n'est pas explicitement question d'amour ou d'amitié, juste d'une rencontre aboutie.
J'aurais tant de choses à lui dire encore. Partager ses goûts musicaux, ses coups de cœur, ses joies, et ses peines aussi... Je suis convaincu qu'on a des choses à s'apporter. Convaincu qu'on peut tirer du positif de tout ça.
Es-tu sur ce quai de gare, Kahina ?
Why isn't this on disney plus yet
Because this short is about 20 years old
@@sassiestkitten1 8 years old
Because this short is actually good
It is on there. Maybe they’ve only put it on recently
@@sassiestkitten1 what a dumb comment. It's not even correct and even if it was, what does that have to do with anything. There's shorts on Disney plus that are 90 years old
It's stuff like this that makes me want to get into 3D animation myself. It's the modern stuff that makes me want to avoid Disney while doing so.
if not one of the best short films disney has made
Thanks to Free Guy I now know about this lovely little film. What a great bit of music too. Both the Free Guy ending and Paperman get my waterworks going. Love is special.
Also the ending of this short has some Meet Joe Black vibes - as they meet in the coffee shop.
I'm not crying, I'm not crying... I'm still crying over this 10 years later.
I haven't found the one for me yet but whenever I feel down because I haven't found my love I always watch this short because it gives me hope not to give up. Makes me shed some tears of hope as well. Just goes to show the power of beautiful story telling
This is easily one of their greatest projects
before Your Name, there’s this one.
Also, this is the representation of “let your purpose do all the work for you and good things will come”. Him making paper planes can mean working on your craft, doing things you really enjoy that gives you meaning in life and letting go of things that drags you down on becoming successful, and this leads you to meet the person that is right for you, and will love you.
We need a movie with those characters
I love this short so much and recognized the music immediately in Free Guy!
Wow, it's been almost 10 yrs already since i first watched this. It's still one of the best for me! This is so special for me. I just listened to the backgrpund music as well. ❤
I first saw this in my Spanish 1 class in my freshman year of high school in 2014. We used it to practice vocabulary and comprehension. We used other short films for similar purposes, but this one was my favorite. That teacher was the best. Also, something about Free Guy stuck out to me when I watched it, guess I know why now.
I enjoyed Paperman short film is included on Wreck-it Ralph DVD that I watch in Theater when I was a kid 11 years old in 2012.
0:59. And that's how real life works.
The fact that this short film is one of the main reasons we have movies like spider verse and puss in boot 2 just makes it even better
As a hopeless romantic this shit hits so good
Omg thank you
My memories became alive
Still my most favorite disney short film!
Will always be my favorite short film
thank you for uploading this. im currently heartbroken. This song does goes a lil' way into mending it :)
Had to come back to this after hearing it on Free Guy
Moral of the story, sooner or later your efforts will be rewarded
It's cool how they made it black and white it makes it make more sense
You know the old tradition of a thousand paper cranes making a wish come true? Paper planes are close enough, it seems. :)
wow, no words, no colors but black/white, and red, and a story is told in 6 minutes. this is powerful.
This was the short that won me over with Disney. It was gorgeous
Watching this after a decade and i got emotional 😢❤.
When the animation was just magical and not filled with some kind of agenda.. I miss those days..
sooo pretty. why didn’t they go with this animation style for wish😩
This isn't just Disney's greatest animated short film, it's the greatest animated short film PERIOD
I actually used to watch this a lot when I was younger, I loved it so much!
I remember watching this on 9gag back in 2012. I downloaded the video but sadly I lost it from my hard drive. Finally hearing again the original music score. Thanks for the upload.
This is excellent, it made me feel HOPE
I was freaking obsessed with this short on the wreck it ralph special features
tbh frank sinatra goes perfectly with this short film
A beautiful classic, I miss this Disney.
