After she was assigned Isle of Dogs, designer Dawn Baillie presented a sketch to director Wes Anderson with her ideas. Her team then animated a sketch as a proof of concept. Once Anderson had approved it, his production team set up all the puppets in the film to mimic their positions in the sketch and shot the composition in digital high resolution. Animated versions of this design were used on social media, now a standard part of every agency’s production process. The images also became individual character posters. As with many designs for Wes Anderson’s films, the poster has a built-in window frame so that no elements are lost once the physical poster is placed in a lightbox.
