Production

Smash and Grab is the second short of Pixar's SparkShorts program, which consists in Pixar giving employees six months and limited budgets to produce short animated films. Writer/director Brian Larsen was inspired by the concept of people wanting a change in routine, particularly him wanting a change in his work as a head of story in Pixar.

Larsen and the animators used Art Deco designs for the film, as Larson felt that "it felt heavy, it felt fast". The animators also used "simple" character designs in the short, which Larsen described as "almost like appliance toasters".
