We’re delighted to treat you to another taste of what’s going on behind the scenes of the official animation. Our lovely partners at Tencent Video have shared more images from the artists at El Guiri Studios and Original Force. 

The exploratory images were presented at a fan event in China today, where Emmy-award winning director Rodrigo Blaas chatted passionately about the animation, and referenced the beautiful fan artwork that the Warrior Cats community has been sharing for decades.

“People and fans have been animating these books on their own time, in their bedrooms, at their desks, because they were not going to wait for somebody to make it official. Many of those works are beautiful. We have watched a lot of it.

“This is the first time these books are officially becoming an animated series. So we know we are not the first people who tried to bring this world to animated life. We are just the first ones who get to do it at this scale, and we do not take that lightly. The series is still two years away. But we’re not going to make the fans wait to see where it’s going because you, the fans, never waited for us. We want to be part of that sharing. So let us show you what our artists at our studios have been creating.”

Please note this is not final artwork.
