Puss in Boots - The characters are placed within the rough storyboard environment.Puss in Boots hits UK cinemas this Friday, 9th  December and we’re very much looking forward to the whole of the UK getting this fabulous movie! Our review went up yesterday and you can have a read here. But before you do though, scroll down and have a look at this amazing progression concept art showing the transition from a hand-drawn storyboard into the computer animation and then to the completely rendered frame. I am unable to draw to save my life and I always find it fascinating watching these extremely talented animators turn something from a drawing into a 3D object on a movie screen! Love it! You can click each stage to enlarge.

Puss in Boots is directed by Chris Miller and has a voice cast which includes Antonio Banderas???, Zeus Mendoza, Walt Dohrn???, Billy Bob Thornton???, Amy Sedaris???, Salma Hayek??? and Zach Galifianakis??. It’ll be with us 9th December.
