Special features are hard to come by in the age of streaming. Sometimes you have to wait for a rare home release, sometimes they are made online only, and sometimes a bonus documentary just drops on the appropriate streamer. To change that, all you need is a desire to push your product at the peak of awards season.
The Mitchells vs. The Machines, which got a rare home release last month, has formed a major part of the streamer's For Your Consideration push. To promote both the home release and the animated movie's award chances, Netflix has done things like letKatie Mitchell host fictional Q&As and posted the film school hopeful's own movie recommendations, and even released the script of the movie. The Art of The Mitchells vs. The Machines is now available on the awards site of the streaming service.
The guide was published last year and covers everything from concepting the film to major set pieces. The digital release of the book means that all the art within is available online for the first time, as well as tons of interviews from the team behind the film. We are not going to say no to public access behind-the-scenes on one of the best animated movies of the last few years, even if we don't know what impact this will have on The Mitchells vs. The Machine's award chances this season.
The full Mitchells vs. The Machines artbook can be found here.
