DreamWorks Animation Panel at Comic Con 2012 DreamWorks Animation hosted a joint panel at the San Diego Comic Con for its three upcoming projects Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted, Rise of the Guardians, and The Croods. The panel was moderated by EW’s Anthony Breznican and featured Bill Damaschke (CCO of DreamWorks Animation), James Baxter (supervising animator for The Croods), Tom McGrath (director of Madagascar 3) and Patrick Hanenberger (production designer for Rise of the Guardians).
The footage starts out with a distinctly Brave-like feel, featuring the eldest, unnamed daughter escaping her cave to scale a sheer cliff face. Then after her family’s cave is ruined, the dusty, monochromatic world of the Croods explodes into a wildly lush and dangerous landscape filled with giant animals and vibrantly colorful plant life. The film, explained Damaschke, takes place in the fictitious Croodacious Period. “We call it evolution’s puberty.”
