Abstract:
Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole (LotG) is set in the nocturnal world of owls, mixing high fantasy, Campbellian mythology and cute fluffy birds. Eschewing a cartoon aesthetic in favour of a darker, more operatic style, LotG’s lighting look was driven by the philosophy that the drama and emotion of the story were more important than maintaining a sense of realism or naturalism.
