In addition, the Korean-American actor Ken-Zheng, who had performed in the movie "Hangover" trilogy, also had a wonderful performance. In the animation, he would smash a character, often an old Vietnamese woman.

In the Mandarin dubbing lineup, the voice of the protagonist Teber is dominated by the racing driver and well-known writer Han Han. Han Han revealed that when he received the film-side dubbing invitation, he asked to see the sample first. "Although the sample at the time has not yet finished the final rendering, the inspirational story of the film's hero, Snail Teb, touched me. Because I am a driver, we are All of them have the same experience, encountering many bumps on the road of racing, so when they saw the main character Snail Teb, they felt the same when they were fighting for the guests on the racing track.

Mike Jackson's classic songs lead the way

In terms of the music of the film, the filmmakers spent a lot of money to buy a number of classic music copyrights. Sauron revealed that in the original film, they used the classic song "Going Back To Indiana" by Michael Jackson, the king of pop music. It is reported that this song is a classic song that Jackson was very popular during the "Jackson 5" period. At that time, he was only in his teens. Sauron said: "The song was chosen because of its rhythm and melody, which is more consistent with the positive theme of "Snail Snail". In the film, Tebo participated in the racing competition 'Indian 500', also with this song. The name of the song is seamless."

The film also revealed that in addition to Michael Jackson's songs, there will be many inspirational and positive energy classics, including "You are the champion" by the German heavy metal rock band, R. Kelly's "I believe Songs such as I can fly.

Canadian director "reverse attack" dream workshop

Unlike the previous "family" and "family" themes of "Crazy Primitives", "Speed ​​Snail" is more focused on "inspirational" and "dream-seeking". According to the director, although "Speed ​​Snail" is a cartoon, it is far more than just the creation of comics. "The snails headed by Tebo represent a kind of spirit, telling people that even if you are small, dreams are far away. Unreachable, as long as you persist and don't give up, you will be able to succeed one day."

What is less well known is that the Canadian director himself also has an inspirational story of “reverse attack”. It is understood that the two "Madagascar" short films he had previously directed, and the creation of "Speed ​​Snail" is actually quite accidental. At that time, DreamWorks had a small competition within the production company, allowing each of its employees to submit a single-page idea and plan, and the winner could get a chance to direct the film. "On the night before the internal competition, I just watched "Speed ​​and Passion" at home." So he decided to submit a story about snails and racing cars that had been brewing before. The dream factory executives were very interested in this idea, and David Sauron also succeeded in "reversely attacking" the upper position.

Ten thousand artwork restores the 100th "Indian 500" event

Director David Sauron said that as a key story in the development of the story, the main character of "Speed ​​Snail", Snail Teb, will be on the same side of the "Indian 500" and the human champion driver. It is understood that the "Indian 500" is actually a real racing competition in the United States, which has a history of 100 years. The "Indian 500" security measures are not as complete and advanced as F1, and the race track is rugged and the vehicles are crowded, so the "Indian 500" is also known as the most intense racing competition.

In order to truly restore this long-established event, the animation design team has obtained the permission of the “Indian 500” organizing committee after several twists and turns, and spent several months on-the-spot investigation. Among them, the number of hand-drawn manuscripts has reached tens of thousands, covering every detail of the circuit, from the testers on the field to the professional equipment of the car, as well as the ground texture and grass of the track. At the same time, in order to ensure the authority of the car's plot, the production team also invited some of the most representative figures in the racing world, such as the car series champion and three "Indian 500" champion Dario Francett as the main event. consultant.

Snail small group group "selling Meng"

In this animation, the most eye-catching thing is "Snail Tebow and its little friends." According to the film, the latest "Meng Chong" images of these dream workshops have been carefully designed by Hollywood animators who have drawn famous animations such as "Crazy Primitives", "Kung Fu Panda" and "Madagascar". In addition to the image "staying cute", these vegetable garden snails are all stunts, whip, boon, slip, drift and white phantom, although they do not have the protagonist's speed super power, but they can borrow sleds, rain gutters Parachute and wire sliding are very good.

The animator also introduced that each snail in the film has its own exclusive color, and the color is closely related to the character. For example, Boon, a hot character, is a flame-like fire red. The white phantom, which is considered to have a shadow-like speed, is a bright white.

Film evaluation

Directed by David Sauron, this is different from previous cartoons. This time, each snail in the film is given more humanized design concepts. Just like Teb's five friends, they have the same dreams, though they are different in character. In order to realize their dreams, they are racking their brains and showing their skills. He said: "These five little guys don't have the extraordinary speed of Tebow, but they don't accept the loss, so they come up with a variety of tricks to make themselves run faster, such as using sleds, rain gutters, parachutes, and wire and cable glide. method". In the film, these strange and strange snails can make a spark together, and they will stage a fun story for the audience. Only when you walk into the theater to find out.

This first version of the trailer did not reveal too many plots, but used two contrasting segments to compare, one side is the intense competition on the racing track, and the other side is a snail to make milking. After 17 minutes of hard crawling 35 cm and excited about it. The snail, known as the "slow" world, is trying to break into the world of speed, which seems to be very unfamiliar, and this dream of realizing it will also be this one.
