I was a production assistant in the development department when this was being developed, and then I became the PA for the model department - where they put together the characters in the computer. It's kind of like sculpting, how they design everything in 3D.
My buddy Steve is the director of the movie, too. He was the head of the story department on The Emperor's New Groove and Brother Bear, and a story artist on Tarzan - which incidentally are the three movies that I've received credit on (so far). Granted, on this latest flick Steve will have the first credit, and mine will be like, last, but hey, he's been working on it a little more than I have!
Here are a few more photos:
The movie comes out on March 30, 2007, which is my birthday, too.
You can see the trailer and some other art over at the official site.
