THe making of the rise of the guardians
Rise of the Guardians, the new animated feature from DreamWorks Animation, is a visually enthralling film based on William Joyce’s The Guardians of Childhood book series, with Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, and other beloved characters reinterpreted as action heroes in a parable about the ongoing struggle between good and evil. This gallery exhibition takes a look behind the scenes, revealing the innovative collaborative process behind the making of the film.
