Disney Pixar Up Costume in NYC!

So a few weeks ago I got an email that looked like spam to me. But hesitant to delete it, i read a few lines and discovered it wasn't spam at all. It was an email from these guys in NYC. They were interested in my Carl Fredricksen costume for a film they wanted to make. They told me they had a drone and some other cool camera equipment so I was interested immediately in their project.

We soon got on the phone with each other and discussed the details. Next thing I knew, I was packing up Carl and shipping him away for another adventure. Last time he traveled he went to Florida. So it turns out that Mr. Fredricksen is living the life that he portrayed in the movie after all. Seeing and doing and exploring.

That was the purpose of the video these guys made. To spread positivity and happiness and put a smile on those who view it. So take a look, share with your friends and spread this message. Follow them on social media and subscribe to their youtube page. Info below. My info is in orange.

Carl Fredricksen from Up movie - Halloween Costume and How To

Thats me as Carl Fredricksen! Okay so this costume has a funny beginning. At work we thought it would be fun to choose a theme that we should all come dressed as. Well, things got confused and voting wasn't exactly accurate and we ended up with a Disney theme. I had no idea what i would be. I love to create my costumes and not just buy them out of a bag. I ended up seeing a similar costume of Carl Fredricksen online and decided i could do that. I needed to get it started because i knew it would take time and i had a lot of other things going on. Well, halfway through the process, my work cancelled the Disney theme. I decided i had better just keep going with what i started. I love the way it turned out and it was a lot of fun to be him as a character. I mimicked his walk and talk and even had the UP theme music playing from my coat pocket.

On Halloween at work i was told that someone saw my costume picture on Facebook and sent it to someone they knew who was dressing up their little boy as the cute boy scout from the movie. I was told they wanted a picture of us together. So sure enough the parents of the cutest little boy showed up and we had a little impromptu photo shoot of us together. Melted my heart how cute he was and how he would look at me. I've since become friends with Anita Fowler and her husband Mylo and their adorable little Denali. We've so much enjoyed the attention our hand crafted costumes received. What a great Halloween it was.

My friends wanted to join in the fun and so in just a weeks time they put together their costumes of the rest of the UP characters including the house. We were quite the hit at a big singles party.

If you're interested in how i made the Carl costume, here is a how to i put together. Sorry its not more detailed but it should give you the idea.

I've started to make another one and so i've tried to take more pictures that might help you out if you are making one. I live in Midvale, UT so message me if you would like to rent the costume for Halloween, or Birthday parties or asking someone to a dance.
