Although this design was not used for the film, the circumstances
behind it were interesting to note. The original concept artist had
finished directing a separate feature. He had also been one of
the concept artists for many films including the one he had just
finished directing.
Anticipating directing the next feature he produced concept art for
Monster Ark which I was most likely going to build, rig and
animate. When he didn't get to direct the feature, the use of the
concept art was mostly of the question.
In order to keep the wheels moving I developed the above
concept at the direction of the vfx supervisor and other execs. But
conversations were underway with the previous director who
agreed to allow his concept art to be used anyway.
By the time that film was in post production I had already moved
on to another job.
