Surf's Up – Storyboard to Surfboard
Surf’s Up – Storyboard to Surfboard
SURF’S UP is an animated action-comedy that delves behind the scenes of the high-octane world of competitive surfing. The film profiles teenage Rockhopper penguin Cody Maverick (Shia LaBeouf), an up-and-coming surfer, as he enters his first pro competition. Followed by a camera crew to document his experiences, Cody leaves his family and home in Shiverpool, Antarctica to travel to Pen Gu Island for the Big Z Memorial Surf Off. Along the way, Cody meets Sheboygan surfer Chicken Joe (Jon Heder), famous surf promoter Reggie Belafonte (James Woods), surf talent scout Mikey Abromowitz (Mario Cantone), and spirited lifeguard Lani Aliikai (Zooey Deschanel), all of whom recognize Cody’s passion for surfing, even if it’s a bit misguided at times. Cody believes that winning will bring him the admiration and respect he desires, but when he unexpectedly comes face-to-face with a washed-up old surfer (Jeff Bridges), Cody begins to find his own way, and discovers that a true winner isn’t always the one who comes in first.

I LOVE THIS MOVIE!!!
This movie was good but I wonder why did this movie didn't make a sequel
Such love! Every 3d animator should have the skills to create animatics. Really inspirational.
Thanks for showing how its done, great work. 🙂
I like the featurette.
IDK? WHAT?
Interesting! Hard job!
Tank Should’ve looked where he was Going.
Im still shook that this was from 2007, the animation is just.. amazing
This exact video attracted me to the world of cgi when I was a kid. Now I'm having nostalgia.
Speaking as an animator myself, this is still an impressive animated movie (from story, animation, characters and style of cinematography – documentary). This is probably Sony's best animated movie. I kind of wish they go back to this style of animation.
