YOUTUBE A-Z: BEHIND THE SCENES

Producer Isabella Parish, Adam Bolt, and a brilliant crew of puppeteers and artists who helped us make this. I’m in there too.

This last photo is not by Peter James. I’m not sure who took it. But it’s a photo of Victor Haegelin, who guest directed this stop motion sequence in the film.
