1:03:07
Here's our classic villain moment.
The scheming villainess.
1:03:12
The transition to this next world...
1:03:15
At one point we just cut to it
and it was just hard to understand.
1:03:18
And yet we include this simple shot...
1:03:21
and it feels connected to the way
they landed in Tartarus in the first place.
1:03:24
And we understand they've been kicked out.
1:03:26
We had many transitions here
and ultimately the simplest was the best.
1:03:29
The quiet and probably
the longest dissolve in the picture...
1:03:33
tells us a little time has passed
as these two are stunned...
1:03:36
at what appears to be their failure.
1:03:38
I think it takes a lot of courage...
1:03:39
when you're painting backgrounds
for an animated movie...
1:03:42
to do something
unbelievably austere and simple.
1:03:45
Which is what this sequence is all about.
Desmond Downes and Kevin...
1:03:49
who did all the backgrounds here...
1:03:51
did a great job
of conveying the emptiness...
1:03:55
and stillness and austerity
of this moment of failure.
1:04:00
We recorded Catherine in Majorca,
off the coast of Spain.
1:04:05
She and her family enjoy a home there...
1:04:07
and she was nice enough to actually
interrupt her vacation...
1:04:10
and the studio was nice enough
to send us to her.
1:04:12
So you have to imagine
this very emotional scene done...
1:04:15
in one of the most
beautiful places on earth...
1:04:18
with the ocean rolling out the window
and dappled sunlight...
1:04:21
a very Mediterranean setting
and Catherine was moved to...
1:04:25
genuine tears by the scene
and delivered a marvelous performance.
1:04:29
This sequence was boarded
by Lorna Cook...
1:04:32
who was a director on Spirit.
1:04:35
She was good enough
to do some beautiful acting...
1:04:38
in the storyboards to help sell this scene...
1:04:41
and to sell the emotion involved
'cause it's a pivotal moment for Sinbad.
1:04:46
It's the moment of his change
and so it had to be really, really sold.
1:04:50
Jakob and William did the animation.
1:04:53
The clean-up did a great job to follow up...
1:04:56
especially on these kind of animations.
It's really subtle.
1:04:59
The acting is subtle.
