DECONSTRUCTING “BIG HERO 6”
This year’s Academy Award winner for Animated Feature Film, Big Hero 6, took flight at the Academy as its ongoing “Deconstructing” post-Oscars series entered its third year on April 23, 2015. As with past events dedicated to Life of Pi and Gravity, the technological and storytelling breakthroughs of the film took center stage as the filmmakers appeared at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater for an evening hosted by Academy governor Bill Kroyer and featuring a welcome from Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs.
The film itself emphasizes creative problem solving and teamwork, qualities that proved useful behind the scenes as well. Producer Roy Conli spoke about his time at Disney including the role of John Lasseter overseeing the feature film projects at the studio, where the “caffeine patch” open space at the office allowed the staff to find an impromptu area to get together and share ideas.
“Communication is the key,” he said, which paved the way for director Don Hall’s own discussion about starting this film four years ago as he was wrapping up Winnie the Pooh. As a kid he loved both Marvel and Disney, so the conjunction of the two companies allowed him to dig into the Marvel archives for material.
