FILM 1619: BIG HERO 6
TRIVIA: According to Scott Watanabe, the
movie is set in an alternate future where after the 1906 earthquake, San
Francisco was rebuilt by Japanese immigrants using techniques that allow
movement and flexibility in a seismic event. After the city was finished being
rebuilt, it was renamed San Fransokyo due to it being a city with Japanese and
American architecture combined.
The production team watched videos
of fire ants as an inspiration of the movement of the Microbots.
In order to create the thousands of
civilians living in San Fransokyo, the production team invented a program
called the "Denizen Factory", which allowed them to build a whole
series of background characters that each have a distinct design.
Over 200 different signs were
created for the advertisements of San Fransokyo.
The inflatable, vinyl, truly
huggable design of Baymax is inspired by 'soft robotics' research at Carnegie
Mellon University.
The model of the design of Baymax's
eyes is a Japanese traditional bell which is called Suzu. Don Hall, the
director, says that he got an inspiration when he visited a temple in Japan.
One of the few Disney Films that is
partially owned by both Pixar and Marvel.
This is Alan Tudyk's third
Disney movie in a row (Wreck-It Ralph (2012) and Frozen (2013)).
During the first twenty minutes of
the movie, Tadashi's breathing is also animated.
Fred's father, seen in the family
portrait the six heros walk past upon first entering Fred's house, is based on
Stan Lee (who has had a cameo in every Marvel movie to date).
