“The ambition was very high from the beginning…We wanted to push things. We want to stretch things and stretch ourselves.” - Pierre Perifel, director of #TheBadGuys2
Perifel (@pierreperifel ), co-director JP Sans (@jpsans ), and VFX supervisor Matt Baer (@mattbaer1 ) discuss their animated comedy sequel, recently nominated for 5 Annies and 3 VES Awards, about our favorite now reformed animal felons getting hijacked into a huge heist by a new team of criminals.

From Bad Guys 1: A few small draw-over notes I added to an already incredibly appealing expression pass by the incredible @antonygray36 . Huge thanks to Antony for bringing the Tricky Fox to life with such charm, personality and appeal! ❤️

Marmalade draw-overs for final touch-ups back in BG 1
You can see I didn’t do too much here! All credit goes to the ridiculously talented work from @rani.naamani , who supervised this little furry villain and posed out these already very appealing expressions

More Shark pre-production Draw-overs I did back on the original Bad Guys.
Again, Character posed beautifully by the incredible @onurs_illustrations 🦈 — here the rig has gone through a few passes and we were getting those final touches to perfect the shapes for the library poses.

Getting to direct the sequel has been a wild ride! Super excited to be spending time with the Mitchell family again. I can’t wait to show the world what we’re cooking up.
It’s gonna be crazy! It’s gonna be fun!! It’s gonna be Mitchells!!

MOVIE IS OUT!
It’s hard to put into words how proud I am, not just of the film itself, but of the amazing team of artists who gave it their all. So many people cared deeply about this project, and you can feel it in every frame. They put their voices into it, made it personal, made it better. This movie became theirs just as much as it is ours, and that’s exactly what makes it so special.
A huge thank you to @pierreperifel for trusting me to join him in the co-director’s chair. Creating something with a friend who also happens to be a great mentor, that’s rare. And it meant the world to me. Both Pierre and Damon @the_damonross have been the most generous mentors and partners anyone could ask for, and I’ve grown so much through this journey with them.
I truly believe we made something beautiful. I hope it brings people joy, and I hope they feel the heart that went into it.
Forever grateful
JP Xx
