Zootopia

1. Gt chung:
Zootopia (titled Zootropolis in the UK and Ireland) is a 2016 American 3D computer-
animated comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt
Disney Pictures. It is the 55th Disney animated feature film, directed by Byron Howard and
Rich Moore and co-directed by Jared Bush. It details the unlikely partnership between a
rabbit police officer and a red fox con artist, as they uncover a criminal conspiracy involving
the disappearance of predators.
2. Plot:
The modern mammal metropolis of Zootopia is a city like no other. Comprised of habitat
neighborhoods like ritzy Sahara Square and frigid Tundratown, it’s a melting pot where
animals from every environment live together—a place where no matter what you are, from
the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anything. But when optimistic Officer
Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin) arrives, she discovers that being the first bunny on a police
force of big, tough animals isn’t so easy. Determined to prove herself, she jumps at the
opportunity to crack a case, even if it means partnering with a fast-talking, scam-artist fox,
Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman), to solve the mystery.
3. Production
a. Writing: Zootopia began when Byron Howard pitched six story ideas to Disney Animation
chief creative officer and executive producer John Lasseter, of which three involved animal
characters: an all-animal adaptation of The Three Musketeers, a 1960s-themed story about
a "mad doctor cat...who turned children into animals", and a "bounty-hunter pug in space".
According to Howard, Zootopia emerged from his desire to create something different from
other animal anthropomorphic films, where animals either live in the natural world or in the
human world
b. Animation: Characters with noteworthy numbers of strands of hair or fur included both of
the two lead characters, Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, who each had around 2.5 million hairs;
a giraffe with nine million strands of fur; a gerbil with 480,000 strands; and a rodent with
more strands of hair than the 400,000 that were on Elsa's head in Frozen.
Zootopia was produced in makeshift quarters in a giant warehouse in North Hollywood
(together with Moana) while Disney Animation's headquarters in Burbank was being
renovated.
c. Casting: On May 6, 2015, Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin were announced as having
been cast, respectively in the roles of Nick Wilde and Judy Hopps.

4. Soundtrack
Zootopia is the soundtrack album for the 2016 film of the same name. It was released on CD
through Intrada Records on March 4, 2016. It includes the song "Try Everything" by Shakira
and selections from the musical score composed by Michael Giacchino.

5. Reception
Worldwide, Zootopia was the fourth-highest-grossing film of 2016 (behind Civil War, Rogue
One, and Finding Dory), the second-highest-grossing animated film of 2016, the second-
highest-grossing Walt Disney Animation Studios film (second-highest overall) of all time in its
original release (after Frozen), the second-highest-grossing original film (behind Avatar), the
fifth-highest-grossing animated film of all time, and the 44th-highest-grossing film of all time.

6. Message
1. Workplace bias is real, even if the people who perpetuate it are unaware that they
systemically keep groups of people down.
2. Racism isn’t as obvious and clear-cut as we may think it is.
3. There’s a difference between fighting for justice and fighting to settle a personal vendetta
based on injustice.
4. Public figures have the power to turn groups against each other, whether planned or
through misinformation.
5. Governmental transparency is necessary
