Cartoon Brew今天专门在Cartoon Brew发布了完整版预告。让我们看看:
Moores first two features, Cartoon SaloonsThe Secret of KellsandSong of the Sea,
因为摩尔的前两部电影:凯尔经的秘密和海洋之歌,卡通沙龙
cemented his status as a storyteller and filmmaker of the first class,
把他当作首席的故事讲述者和电影制作人,
while boosting Irelands animation scene into the global limelight,
在促进爱尔兰动画进入全球公众视野的同时,
earning him two Oscar nominations and countless other accolades.
还给他两项奥斯卡提名和其它数不完的荣誉。
Now, withWolfwalkers,Moore is ready to deliver what he describes as the final panel of our Irish folklore triptych.
现在,摩尔已打算发表他描绘的“最后一部爱尔兰民间传说三联画”。
PARTNER MESSAGE
Its an idea that Moore has been developing for years. Wolfwalkerstells the story of 11-year-old Robyn Goodfellow, a young apprentice hunter who comes to Ireland with her father to wipe out the last pack of wolves.
这是一个摩尔想了几年的主意。狼行者讲述了11岁的学徒猎人罗宾•古德菲勒跟随她的父亲去爱尔兰清除最后的狼群的故事。
Her life changes though after she saves a native girl, Mebh, which leads to her discovery of the Wolfwalkers and transforms her into the very thing her father is tasked to destroy.
她救了一个叫Mebh的当地女孩,这导致了她发现狼行者并让她成为她父亲想要除掉的对象,她的生活从此改变。
As he has done with earlier works, Moore uses Celtic folklore as a window into our contemporary world. Thematic undercurrents of wilderness versus order, and mans impulse to control nature, are key to the world ofWolfwalkers.
在做完早期工作后,摩尔用把凯尔特的民间传说作为与现代世界交流的桥梁。以野蛮与规则的对抗,以及人类征服自然的冲动为暗线,是与狼行者所塑造的世界交融的中心。

Visually too, Moores new film retains a connection to his other films. Firstly, through his commitment to hand-drawn animation. Drawing isnt simply a defiant aesthetic choice in our cg times, but integral to how Moore wants to tell his stories. We are hoping to show how the characters feel with great acting, movement and facial expressions, but also with how they are drawn, he explained to Cartoon Brew. As our characters moods and emotions change, the linework can become more expressive.
可以看到,摩尔的新电影与其他电影是有关联的。这首先可以从他致力的手绘动画看出。手绘在我们的时代不只是一个大胆美学选择,还是摩尔想要讲述他故事的重要方式。“我们希望不仅用出色的表演,行动和面部表情还希望通过他们的绘画风格来展示人物的情感,”他向Cartoon Brew解释道,“当我们的人物的情感变化的时候,故事的主线将会变得更加富有表现力。”
Moore will co-direct the film with longtime collaborator Ross Stewart, who was the art director ofThe Secret of Kells,and co-directed with Moore the Cartoon Saloon sequence in the anthology featureThe Prophet.Since we came up with the idea many years ago it felt natural that we would co-direct this film together, Moore said.
摩尔将会和他长久合作伙伴罗斯•斯图尔特一起导演这部电影。罗斯•斯图尔特是凯尔经的秘密的艺术导演,她和摩尔一起导演卡通沙龙的电影:预言家。“我们许多年前有了这个主意,我们将会一起导演这部电影,这很自然。”
Moore and Stewart have spent time developing a graphic language that reinforces the themes and values of their story through the visual design of the film. As seen in scenes from the trailer, the Puritans and English army are rendered in an ascetic woodblock style, while the wolfwalkers and wolves exhibit a freer, more expressive line style. When we see the world from the point of view the wolves, its animated in charcoal with a very limited palette and color only where there are scents, Moore said. In contrast to the block print style in Kilkenny we have a much looser look to the forest lots of ink splats and loose watercolors and scribbly pencil lines.
摩尔和斯图尔特已经花时间开发了一种绘画风格,这种风格在电影里通过视觉设计能加强他们故事情节和内涵。我们能从预告片中看出,清教徒和英国的军队有一种苦行的绘画风格,而狼行者和狼群却展示出自由并更加富有表现力的线条风格。当我们看到狼的时候,我们会发现它们仅在炭笔下也有活力,”摩尔说,“相比于版画风格,在基尔肯尼我们对森林有更多自由的视角——我们能用大量墨水点,自由的水彩以及胡乱的铅笔线条。”

Taking inspiration from block prints and artwork of the period,Wolfwalkerswill be set in Kilkenny, Ireland, in the mid-1600s around the time of the English civil war. Moore and his crew havent had to travel far to research the film: modern-day Kilkenny is where their studio Cartoon Saloon is located.
由于受版画和这时期的艺术作品的鼓舞,狼行者将把故事情节设置在大约17世纪中叶爱尔兰的基尔肯尼,时间上与英国内战相近。摩尔用不着走太远去做这部电影,因为现在的基尔肯尼是卡通沙龙的所在地。
The small Irish town still has retained its historic character throughout the centuries. Its interesting to imagine how places we see everyday might have looked back then, Moore observed. Since the folklore and history we are drawing from is local,its a really nice way for the crew who are not from here to connect with the city.
这个爱尔兰小镇至今几世纪以来仍保持着它的历史风格。“想象我们每天看到的东西就可能看到了过去,这很有趣,”摩尔注意到,因为我们正在画的是当地的民间传说和历史,所以对不熟悉这里的工作人员来说这真的是一个好方法。”
The studio created this mini-film for Cartoon Movie that shows their crew exploring local surroundings both man-made and natural:
这个电影制作厂制作了这个展示他们员工探索当地环境的小视频。这些环境既有人造的,也有自然景观。
