A rare treat today on the Filmmaker Toolkit: a deep dive into feature animation directing! Directors Byron and Jared explain how the film was essentially in pre-production, production, and post-production simultaneously across it's 5 year development. They also dug into the ways casting and character creation intertwine, and the challenge of packing every frame to the brim with detail.
