Chris Williams’ Oscar-nominated film, ‘The Sea Beast,’ is a passionate fantasy epic with astounding visuals and intense action sequences.
With breathtaking detailed animation provided by the Vancouver-based VFX-and-computer-animation studio Sony Pictures Imageworks,is a compelling contrast to the studio’s other animated features. “It was not going to be a big, broad comedy. That style can be great. I lovefilms,” says Williams. “We wanted to be much more restrained and observed with our acting. The tiniest little movement, or the tiniest little expression change, can be very meaningful once you are working within that language.
Push comes to shove for the three when the crew encounters the Red Bluster as night falls. Crow is determined to put everything on the line to take the Bluster down, endangering the lives of the crew in the process. “We start to see that Crow, who up to this point has been an effective and respected captain, starts to become Captain Ahab,” says Williams.
Recording dialogue with his actors via Zoom, Williams didn’t even get to meet Maisie’s voice actor, Zaris-Angel Hator, until the recent BAFTAs. But the power of her performance carried through even at a distance. For a pivotal, emotional scene late in the film, when Maisie confronts the British royals about their treatment of the Red Bluster, “I think the first take she did is the one that is in the movie.” Williams says.
