Mark Shapiro from Laika

Mark Shapiro from Laika in Oregon came to Big Fish today and talk about their studio. He showed us some clips and behind the scenes videos from the making of "Coralin", "Paranomarn" and "The BoxTrolls".

He even passed around a few things for us to pick up and look at up close including a puppet armature and some face parts from their films.

The face on the left is Norman and the right appears to be baby Eggs from Box Trolls. I placed these on my notebook for scale (upsell!).

I REALLY want to visit their studio. The work and talents that go into their movies is unparalleled.
