“ wanted to create a more visually interesting animated film. Make this world existed and know . Create something bigger, something special. See each of the characters in detail. We wanted to highlight the qualities of each, “said Martino, director of the film, during the promotional press conference.
His fanaticism for Charlie Brown and Snoopy led him to want an attractive project for different generations . “I was thrilled with the idea of making this film and I said to myself ‘You better not blow it.” He had a lot of responsibility, but came to Blue Sky Studios and said ‘we have to do a movie for our children, “he said.
Together with a group of 10 animators, Martino intervened in Charles M . Schulz Museum to learn about the world’s most famous in the world Beagle. From there, the creative team began a stage of research and observation of comics. “When I was little loved pen strokes and said ‘I want the comic lines are in the film. Therefore, the designers had to understand the work of the comic perfectly. It was there that we understood we were doing a big movie. “
The animators studied more than 8000 comics, in 50 years of existence of the cartoon. With a combination of 2D and 3D animation, formed the best version of Woodstock, Sally, Linus, Lucy and other characters , which, while maintaining the essence of the original route, gave them movement and dynamism .
“We studied the drawings to recreate the animation. Drawings of front, side, profile were performed. And then make a three-dimensional model. Our job is to believe that the character has come back to life. Snoopy call it ‘The challenge Picasso’, because we had to fit the pose with cartoons, “said the also creator of the Ice Age 4 and Horton .
“The biggest challenge was technical. It has been one of the most complicated. It was like what happens to Charlie Brown. If you do not work one day, we were trying. To make it more like the comic characters was the most complicated. Blue Sky Studios hoped that we could make this film. We were committed and not take any shortcuts. “
Despite being a new version, the film respects the adventures told through cartoons. “We did not change anything . We had to focus on the characters, feelings and emotions. These characters are amazing in themselves “
Charlie Brown and Snoopy. Peanuts, movie opens this December 25 in various cinemas of the country . And while it is satisfied with the progress for three years in the making, Martino unknown whether there will be a second tape.
