DL: We did the aliens but they only appear in a few shots. Again, Troublemaker did the design and we went from there to finish it. At some point, they talked about adding more shots of the aliens but changed their mind.

Integrating all of the animated characters into the final battle offered the final challenge.

 

BD: And what about the final battle, which is like one big food fight?

DL: It's always like this with Robert and the final battle scene: everybody fighting with each other. It's like 130 shots where you have all the creatures in the same scene. This was hard because all the final shots that we had for every creature was built for one scene, not for having everyone interact with each other. So it was a big concern, but there were no surprises.
