Created by Steve Oedekerk (founder of O Entertainment) this film was released by Nickelodeon in 2006. Philip Cruden, owner and Creative Director at Go For Launch Productions and Go For Launch Games, was both the Production Designer and Art Director on this film. Phil and his team of 5 talented design artists first worked to create the look of the film and then designed all of the assets for the film.
Phil worked closely with the Modeling, Textures/Surfaces, Lighting & Compositing, Special Effects and Layout departments, throughout the project, to ensure that the vision for the film was maintained throughout each phase of the pipeline. In addition, Phil created the Workbook which defines the composition, set assets, camera moves, lighting & SFX and basic animation for the entire film, on a scene by scene and sequence by sequence basis.
