Extract: Vanguard Animation is an independent studio launched by Shrek producer John Williams. Having made the jolly green ogre a family name, Williams wanted to prove that with talent and imagination it was also possible to produce top-flight entertainment independently of industry giants like Industrial Light and Magic. “He wanted to create his own animated features under his own company and outside of the studio system,” explains Tom Jacomb, line producer at Vanguard. “He also wanted to make the film for $40 million, which sounds a lot, but is about half of what it normally costs. So we had to find a way of making this film at the quality required for a full theatrical release, but at a fraction of the normal price.”
