A pair of animation powerhouses recently sat down to discuss the upcoming release of Ponyo. Writer/Director of the 2D animated feature Hayao Miyazaki was interviewed by none other than John Lasseter, the Chief Creative Officer at Pixar. Walt Disney Pictures is releasing the English-language version of the Studio Ghibli film on August 14, 2009.
Here’s a 3-minute behind-the-scenes featurette about the english-language release of Ponyo, Hayao Miyazaki’s latest animated feature. About 1 minute in, there’s an interesting moment with Miyazaki and Pixar’s John Lasseter. This Studio Ghibli film hits theaters on August 14th.
A new trailer for Hayao Miyazaki’s 2D feature animated movie Ponyo has arrived. The Studio Ghibli film is a new twist on Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid, and it hits theaters on August 14th.
Roald Dahl’s 1970 book Fantastic Mr. Fox is being turned into a stop-motion animated feature by a most unlikely director – Wes Anderson (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums). And today the first trailer emerged. And yes, we also think it’s confusing that a movie named Fantastic Mr. Fox is being produced at 20th Century Fox Animation. The film arrives in theaters on November 13, 2009.
A new clip from Walt Disney Animation Studios’ upcoming 2D feature The Princess and the Frog has emerged. This low-resolution, :40 second vignette gives us our first extended look at Charlotte, Tiana’s best friend (and eventual rival), who grows up to be a spoiled, southern debutante. Princess and the Frog will be in theaters December 11th.
