Step higher into the world of Wildwood, where the Avian Principality rules the skies above the wilderness.

Every feather is crafted by hand.
Every wing is carefully animated.
Every frame reveals a world taking flight.

This is Where the Sky Remembers.

From director Travis Knight, Wildwood is based on the bestselling novel by Colin Meloy and illustrated by Carson Ellis. Wildwood will release in theaters everywhere October 23, 2026.

JUST DANCE 2026 is here!
THIS YEAR, WE'RE DANCING WITH MONSTERS AND WE LOVE IT!
@justdancegame commissioned us to create an entire stop-motion video. The chosen song this time is "Born to Be Alive," and our coach is the dark yet sweet daughter of Victor Frankenstein. Her companion is a special teddy bear, stitched together from parts of other teddies. Together, they visit the homes of monsters, handing out candy and making their Halloween night a joyful one!
We designed and built the characters and many different sets. It was an incredibly challenging project, but in the end, we made it happen!
Once again, we used rotoscope animation, tracing each frame based on the flawless reference choreography by Ubisoft's talented Estelle.
The final result is a beautiful and monstrous video, nearly three minutes of pure stop motion animation.

Step into the shadows of Pittock Mansion, one of Portland’s most iconic landmarks, reimagined from the ground up for Wildwood. In this exclusive behind-the-scenes featurette, LAIKA’s artists and artisans reveal how they transformed a historic home into a symbol of mystery, power, and magic.

For more than a decade, LAIKA’s craftspeople have been shaping the world of Wildwood through meticulous hand-built sets, intricate animation, and boundless imagination. Pittock Mansion becomes more than brick and stone: it becomes a gateway into a realm where humans and animals live hand in paw and talon… a world of secrets waiting to be uncovered.

This is where every surface is sculpted by human hands.
Every detail carries a story.
Every shadow invites discovery.
This is Where Mystery Dwells.

From director Travis Knight, Wildwood is based on the bestselling novel by Colin Meloy and illustrated by Carson Ellis.
