August 2, 2002 — Although Peter Docter isn't directing Finding Nemo, he still had a few things to tell Cinescape about the next Pixar-Disney collabo.

There' s actually a little preview for it on the [MONSTERS, INC.] DVD, he says. It's about tropical fish characters. It's an underwater story and it's really fantastic. If you've ever been scuba diving or snorkeling you know that there's just a complete, amazing world down there and computer graphics is really a great medium [for it]. It's something we try to do with all of the films is to take advantage of the medium so that you're not trying to fight against something. Humans are really hard. Toys were a good first choice because everything we did was kind of plastic looking. With fish it's the same way. A lot of the other things that are going on down therewell, water excepted, water's really hardbut a lot of the other things are fairly straightforward for what computers can do with it, sort of fish shapes and that sort of thing.
