The Secret vs. The Book of Kells.

The secret of Kells is a movie that takes a lot of visual cues from the Book of Kells, one of the scenes where this is extremely obvious is when the little boy and the faerie girl are jumping around the book. This part makes the cler connection between the book and the movie. The movie was interesting because it animated the designs and made them look as though they were real growing parts of nature rather than just drawings flat on a page. Another thing I noticed they used a lot in the secret of kells was the small delicate details. That is something you can clearly see in the actual book of Kells. The second screenshot I have here is particularly interesting because of all the organic shapes found in it that mirror the book.
