“Lava” is a 2014 computer-animated musical short film, produced by Pixar Animation Studios. "Lava" was directed by James Ford Murphy and produced by Andrea Warren. It premiered at the Hiroshima International Animation Festival on June 14, 2014, and was theatrically released alongside Pixar's "Inside Out" on June 19, 2015.

The short film is a musical love story that takes place over millions of years. It is set to a song written by Murphy who says “Lava” was inspired by the "isolated beauty of tropical islands and the explosive allure of ocean volcanoes."

The song to the short, also titled "Lava", was released on June 16, 2015, as a digital single and as a bonus track on the CD release of “Inside Out”’s soundtrack.

"To generate stories I think about things I can geek out over, things that really touch me," says director James Ford Murphy, who’s been at Pixar for 19 years. Murphy fell in love with Hawaii after visiting on honeymoon. "Hawaii really touches me. The geology, the people, the amount of music that has come out of this remote island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean -- it just blows me away," he says. "The fact that there are still active volcanoes in this place, the fact that there's a whole chain of islands that have sunk back into the sea... it just became this fascination."

Murphy learnt to play the ukulele and began writing a song, inspired by Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwo’ole’s serene version of “Somewhere Over The Rainbow”, and pitched it to Pixar head John Lasseter -- musically."I was terrified, but I just went in and let rip," he says. "You’ve got to just throw yourself into it." Lasseter loved the pitch and green lit the project.
