Production [edit]

Upon reading the original book on which the film is based McGrath felt a connection to it, as he had an older brother and felt like "the boss infant of the family unit".[eleven] In keeping with that theme he stated, in an interview with Den of Geek, that "My personal goal with this was to picket this movie with my brother, and to run across how it afflicted him!", which resulted in McGrath'south blood brother beingness moved to tears by the completed film.[12]

The look of the motion-picture show was inspired by design techniques popularized in the 1960s,[thirteen] as well equally blithe films from both the 1950s and 1960s.[11] This was due to McGrath's conventionalities that contemporary animated films focused besides much on realism. To help his staff McGrath would play the opening scene of Lady and the Tramp (1955) for new hires specifically noting that the film "should be like shooting fish in a barrel on the eyes and really lead your center to what'due south important in the shot.[13]

Miles Bakshi, son of the DreamWorks Animation'due south producer Gina Shay and grandson of the picture director Ralph Bakshi, who directed the 1972 American adult animated comedy pic Fritz the True cat, provided the voice of 7-year erstwhile Tim. Having been oft present at DreamWorks, McGrath initially asked Bakshi only to provide a temporary voice for Tim to encounter if the graphic symbol "worked". The producers listened to 30 to twoscore children to cull the scratch voice. McGrath explained their decision: "No one sounded equally authentic every bit Miles did. A lot of kid actors are great, but they are over-articulate for their age. Miles was but natural and charming. He had a trivial slur to his voice at the time and it was very endearing." Three years subsequently, Miles was told that he got the part.[fifteen] Bakshi was ten when he began recording the voice. During the long procedure, his voice started to alter and "by the terminate it got pretty tough", according to Bakshi, who was fourteen when the moving picture was released. He had to get his voice "very soft, but when I got that perfect tone it was slap-up."

Music [edit]

The film was scored by Hans Zimmer, who had previously collaborated with McGrath on the Madagascar trilogy (2005–2012) and Megamind (2010), along with Steve Mazzaro, Jacob Collier, and various artists.
