Description
"It was such a beautiful process. Throughout it, it felt like we were doing something new and different. And then what really hit home is that there was something so new about the colors, the fashion, the music, the sounds, the visuals, the thinks and purples, even Fletcher Moules in the way that he animated, it harkened back to hand-drawn animation, where instead of, you know, traditional 3D animation of today where you've got your arm up and then you draw the arm down and the computer generates a smooth move from top to bottom, so everything looks perfect. With Entergalactic, it was really important to him to make sure each frame was hand drawn. So every move was a deliberate choice by an artist and a team of artists around the world.So there's something very warm in its aesthetic, but what's so interesting is that the love story is very nostalgic. It's, it just hearkens back to what a good romance feels like. And what was interesting watching it for the first time was I didn't realize how much I missed seeing that from the US. It just felt like the joy that we've been missing in programming."Karina Manashil is the President of Mad Solar Productions.
