Features
Disc 01 Audio Commentary — Directors Graham Annable and Anthony Stacchi sit down for a pleasing-enough conversation that touches on various aspects of the production, commenting on differences, the animation work, characters and share anecdotes about the voice talent. Dare to Be Square (HD, 33 min) — Broken into five sections, this is standard EPK-style making-of doc with cast & crew interviews mixed with lots of BTS footage and various clips from the film. Preliminary Animatic Sequences (HD, 17 min) — Broken into six sections and with optional director's commentary, watch initial animation drawings of scenes that never made into the film. Featurettes (HD, 13 min) — Broken into five more sections, this collection of featurettes gives viewers an opportunity to see the artists at work and the creative process of creating the fantastical world. Of most interest is arguably seeing the filmmakers design the set and characters. DVD of feature film.
