me and my shadow in THR.

the hollywood reporter released an article today announcing the voices (bill hader, kate hudson, josh gad) for the dreamworks animation film i'm working on now, me and my shadow, as well as a brief of the story:

Conceived in-house as an original film, Shadow centers on Stan, a shadow (Hader) who yearns for a more exciting life than being attached to a timid human named Stanley Grubb (Gad). When a crime in the shadow community puts both of their lives in danger, Stan is forced to take control of Stanley, thrusting both of them into an adventure featuring a shadowy villain, who intends to lead a rebellion to take over the human world. Hudson will voice Grubb’s potential love interest in the real world.

The movie will mix up CG and traditional animation (the shadow world will be handrawn while the human world will be CG), which the studio hopes will be pioneering and create an experience not seen before.

and yea, my work since puss in boots has been entirely on the hand-drawn/CG integration for this film. fun stuff.
