A CG film's backstory

For a behind-the-scenes look at the production of an animated feature, check out the site for Delgo, a Hero's Journey. Fathom Studios posts regular updates so you can spy on the film's real-time progression.

The site's Digital Dailies message board catalogs JPEGs from the design table and exchanges among the animators. I read an extended debate about one protagonist's hairstyle ("The arc of the hairline is so smooth that it bothers me a little") and a protracted discussion on whether to send females to war ("I wonder what the PC swing on that would be?").

Beyond the rants, reading the crew members' names is worth a click-through - each is in Victorian parlance. So there's a Mythic Sage of Resplendent Imagery and a Master Artisan of Kinematic Wonders. The filmmakers' identities will be revealed withDelgo's release in 2003. Stay tuned.
