Monsters Vs. Aliens Interview Conrad Vernon

Over the past little while, I have posted several times about this movie. Hopefully, you're not completely sick of it. First the trailer came out, then the truly awesome art book, and now this fascinating interview I read today. If it's not obvious, I am truly excited about cheesy monster movies (it comes out Friday).

The interview is over on Newsarama with Monsters vs Aliens co-director Conrad Vernon. In it he discuss many aspects of the prodcution, including working/animating for 3-D.

here's an excerpt where he talks about Animation Cheats:

“For instance, 3-D reveals a lot of cheats most animation usually uses. For instance, eye lines. You can have what you think is two characters looking at each other, then when you put the glasses on and you see both characters are looking off into space instead of each other. The characters also could be two feet to the right of each other, so the eye line doesn’t match up. Then again, my whole career was learning on the job, so that was nothing new to me. "
