Caliri comments on the team effort, “They wanted a pop-up book look. We decided to try to make as many real pop-up pages as possible and only cheat when we needed. I think it ended up being a fun mix of pop-up and animation. Alex Juhausz really nailed a great Americana/comic book feel with his illustrations and Anthony Scott brought his usual sensitivity to the animation. The team really pulled together on this one and I think it shows. We had fun.” |

“We’ve always been a company that disregards preconceived assumptions and attempts new concepts that might seem unthinkable to others. We’re continually upping the bar of creativity, and this title sequence is a perfect example of the blending of DUCK’s originality and appropriateness,” said Executive Producer Mark Medernach. “I am honored to have been able to work on such a fun and interesting effort and the end result is a pop-up masterpiece.” |
