It was Mill Valley Film Festival in October that gave us the first taste of "Rise of the Guardians"  

at its premiere. Peter Ramsey, the director, who came on board at DreamWorks Animation in 2004, was on hand along with DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg. The high technological advancement of "Rise of The Guardians" is evident. Some aspects of the film  

could not be produced until the technology caught up with the ideas of the team. Although the technology is fabulous, the foundation of "Rise of the Guardians" success is the storytelling of  

the film based on William Joyce's The Guardians of Childhood and his short film "The Man in  

the Moon."

 

Ramsey and Katzenberg spoke about the importance of the story at the October 10th debut of film.

"Rise of the Guardians" stars Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Hugh Jackman, Isla Fisher and  

Jude Law .

 

Katzenberg says "DreamWorks makes movies for adults and the adult that exists  

in every child." So out and see "Rise of the Guardians" and you don't have to borrow your neighbor's kids for family camouflage.  Singles feel free to go solo!  Enjoy!

 

As a sidebar, here's an interesting article about Katzenberg that appeared in USA Today as he gives career advice at the 14th Annual USA Today CEO Forum (Click Here).   

 

 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
