Twenty years ago, LAIKA was founded on a simple idea: create a studio driven by artists.

Since Coraline, generations of craftspeople, designers, fabricators, and animators have continued to push the boundaries of stop-motion filmmaking. What once seemed impossible has become the foundation for even more ambitious storytelling.

That journey has led to Wildwood: the largest, most ambitious, and most technically sophisticated film in LAIKA's history.

In this exclusive behind-the-scenes featurette, journey inside the making of Wildwood as the artists behind the film reveal the passion, innovation, and craftsmanship that bring its extraordinary world to life. From the Bandit Camp and its unforgettable inhabitants to the expansive landscapes of the Impassable Wilderness, discover how thousands of handcrafted details come together, frame by frame.

In a time when entire worlds can be generated with a click, choosing to build one by hand feels like a quiet act of rebellion.

This is where artists challenge convention.

Where craftsmanship becomes storytelling.

Where imagination is built by human hands.

This is Where Rebels Gather.

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