Cartoon Saloon, the Irish animation studio behind the Academy Award-nominated
films The Secret of Kells (2009), Song of the Sea (2014), and The Breadwinner
(2017), returns in 2020 with its latest feature, WolfWalkers, coproduced with Melusine
Productions and directed by Tomm Moore and Ross Stewart. This mythic tale tells the
story of a young hunter named Robyn, who, while tracking down a pack of dangerous
and wild wolves, is transformed into the very thing she and her father have been
seeking to destroy. Filled with exclusive hand-drawn sketches, paintings, interviews,
and digital renderings that showcase Cartoon Saloon's unique artistic style, The Art of
WolfWalkers takes fans behind the scenes of one of animation's most celebrated
studios.

Key Product Highlights:
  • The Next-Gen Mythological Blueprint: Follow a beautifully detailed developmental world charting the historic Irish folklore of Kilkenny, optimized specifically to act as an accurate snapshot of the sharp, geometric visual contrast engineered between the rigid puritanical town walls and the fluid, untamed energy of the wolf pack's forest realm.
  • The Smooth Hand-Drawn Articulation: Watch the legendary, fluid illustrative styling of directors Tomm Moore and Ross Stewart deploy on an investigative tactical preservation mission, utilizing specialized archival color scripts, pencil sketches, digital renderings, and experimental "wolf-vision" animatics across complex page structures to lock in extreme kinetic stances without distorting the structural, line-heavy silhouettes of Robyn and Mebh.
  • The Custom Creator Toolkit: Witness the lethal combination of industry-standard behind-the-scenes assets, shipping complete with comprehensive creator commentary, exclusive studio layout breakdowns, and detailed interviews with key creative teams at Cartoon Saloon and Melusine Productions explaining the complex textures used to emulate medieval art traditions.
This incredible, heavy-duty archive is an absolute crown-jewel studio centerpiece addition for modern animation completionists, traditional art historians, film students, and graphic narrative instructors looking to master classic character construction references, multi-figure expressions, and classical storyboarding drafting.
