how long did it take to make the movie paranorman
ParaNorman Production of the stop-motion animation feature took place at Laika's studio in Hillsboro, Oregon.[16][17] The film was in production for three years with the animating stage of production lasting about two years, beginning in late 2009. Rather than using traditional 3D format cameras, the studio used sixty Canon EOS 5D Mark II DSLR cameras to film the movie.[18] Ad agency Wieden+Kennedy created the advertising campaign for the film.[16] ParaNorman is the first ever stop motion film to utilize full-color 3D printers for replacement animation, after Coraline pioneered and popularized the use of black and white 3D printers, which sped up puppet production considerably and allowed the team to make the large number of puppet faces required for the film.[19] "Quite often itâ€™s the stop-motion movies that are more out there", co-director Fell told The New York Times. "They're a little quirkier, they're a little harder to pin down."[20]
