Catch a Glimpse of Neil Gaiman's Coraline!
Gaiman posts a few moments from the film.
Neil Gaiman has offered fans an early look at Henry Selick's adaptation of his acclaimed novella Coraline.
Starring the voices of Dakota Fanning, Teri Hatcher, Keith David, and Ian McShane, Coraline brings the adventures of Gaiman's young heroine -- and her battle to free a group of souls from a twisted, parallel version of her world -- to the screen via stereoscopic stop-motion animation.
Gaiman's site describes the footage as "early" and "not-quite-final," but it looks pretty great from here. Click on the link below to see for yourself!

on Dec 26 2007 10:00 AM This is one of my most anticipated movies next year. It brings together three amazing people: The director of, in my opinion, the best puppet-animated movie of all time (Nightmare Before Christmas), Henry Sellick. The novella that, in 2003, won both of fantasy/science-fiction's highest honors, the Hugo and the Nebula (Coraline), written by the winner of countless such awards, Neil Gaiman. And, the one no one probably knows, but the great mind of animator/art director Jamie Caliri, who created the most beautiful commercial I've ever seen, the United Airlines Dragon commercial, which was animated in this same paper cutout style. http://tinyurl.com/q8evh (It's the one called Dragon...) Plus, if what I hear Neil Gaiman said is correct, one of my favorite bands ever is doing the music, They Might Be Giants. I'm very excited. (Reply to this) |
on Dec 26 2007 01:25 PM That looks lovely. If anyone went to the 3D BEOWULF shows there was a 3D trailer of CORALINE that was pretty awesome. (Reply to this) |

on Dec 26 2007 02:45 PM Watch the teaser trailer that ran before Beowulf (and please excuse the poor quality). I'm not sure how the puppet and paper-cutout animation will be mixed, but that teaser there clearly uses the same style of animation that Caliri used in his United Airlines commercial.

on Dec 26 2007 10:00 PM Coraline is one of my all time favorite books. I'm really looking forward to seeing it as a film. I'm glad they went with animation rather than live action, but i am dissapointed that Dave McKean isn't the art director, or apart of it at all for that matter. Neil and Dave are just such a wonderful artistic duo... (Reply to this) |

on Dec 27 2007 10:22 PM In reply to this comment (#1396722) That's not the teaser trailer. .that's a "book trailer" from 2006 done for a contest. Look at the description and the date it was added. (Reply to this) |
