FT 03 Making Of Wes Anderson's Isle of Dogs – Behind the scenes with Lead Animator and Head of Painting


They make characters using metal, fabric, and resin, and these characters grow on us, make us laugh and cry. As meticulously designed, crafted, painted, dressed, and animated the film is, as passionately Kim Keukeleire, the Lead Animator, and Roy Bell, the Head of Painting, talk about creating the stunning details of the wondrous world of ISLE OF DOGS. They provide a fascinating insight into their work and talk about how they breathed life into the main canine cast including Chief, Rex, King, Duke, Boss, as well as the hunting grounds of Trash Island and Megasaki City.
