Hand drawn animated film postman movie#
2D Visuals, 3D Effects: While the majority of the movie is hand-drawn on tablet with computer-aided lighting and texturing, certain objects and characters like Jesper's wagon and some of the reindeer are 3D models, lit the same way as the 2D characters to blend in seamlessly.This new technique was his studio's way of not only integrating the 2D characters into 3D environments better, but also keeping hand-drawn animation alive while allowing it to progress technologically into the 21st century.Ī "proof of concept" teaser was released in 2015, with the finished film premiering on Netflix four years later on November 15th, 2019 after a limited theatrical release a week earlier. Inversely, he believed CGI was becoming old hat, as there was no further ground to break once it had achieved the utmost photorealism. According to Pablos, he believed that 2D feature animation had gone out of style largely because it hadn't progressed much since digital ink-and-paint, which could only make characters look like stickers pasted onto backgrounds and paled in comparison to CGI. The film is notable for its groundbreaking visual style, which applies realistic shading and volumetric lighting to "paperless" hand-drawn animation, giving 2D drawings a distinctly 3-dimensional look (sort of an inversion of Paperman's technique). On his failed postal route, Jesper meets Klaus (Simmons), a reclusive woodsman with a knack for building wooden toys and the two quickly learn that they'll not only be able to help one another out, but bring some much-needed happiness back to a town that desperately needs it. He assigns Jesper to the small, dreary North Pole town of Smeerensburg, which is populated near-entirely by two families who have been feuding for as long as either can remember and, therefore, have little interest in sending each other letters. His father, who also happens to be the postmaster general and the dean of the academy, eventually gives Jesper an ultimatum: deliver six thousand letters in a year or be cut off from his family's finances forever. Selfish, lazy Jesper Johanssen (Schwartzman) is the worst student at the postman's academy, constantly sabotaging himself and trying as little as possible so he can keep relaxing on his father's dime.
