Imagi Creative Director Posts Gatchaman Art, Notes Delay
posted on by Egan Loo
Felix Ip, the creative director at Hong Kong's IMAGI animation studio, has posted four conceptual computer graphics for the Gatchaman film that is in development at his firm. In a reply to a comment in his posting, Ip also said that "Gatchaman will not come in 2009..." He added that the studio is adjusting the project's art direction to be "more anime and stylize[d] rather than photo realistic." TMNT director Kevin Munroe was initially attached to this adaptation of Tatsunoko's science-fiction anime franchise; he has since left the project and the company.
Ip also posted pictures from IMAGI's Comic-Con International booth, where two hair stylists gave attendees Astro Boy hair makovers.
