The Age [free registration required] writes of the latest short film from Pixar, One Man Band, which will play in front of Cars next summer. The article includes a fresh pic from the short.

Also, Liudger’s spot at Blogger mentions his One Man Band experience at the 2005 Annecy International Animated Film Festival, where he received a magazine displaying the synopsis and another new image for the short. The plot reads, “With one coin to make a wish at the piazza fountain, One Man Band, the latest short film from Pixar Animation Studios, tells the humorously captivating tale of a peasant girl who encounters two competing street performers who’d prefer the coin find its way their tip jars. As the two one-man bands’ rivalry crescendos, the two overly eager musicians vie to win the little girl’s attention.”
