Production [edit]

Upon reading the original book on which the moving picture is based McGrath felt a connectedness to it, as he had an older blood brother and felt like "the boss baby of the family".[xi] In keeping with that theme he stated, in an interview with Den of Geek, that "My personal goal with this was to watch this moving-picture show with my brother, and to come across how it afflicted him!", which resulted in McGrath's brother being moved to tears past the completed film.[12]

The look of the film was inspired by design techniques popularized in the 1960s,[13] besides as blithe films from both the 1950s and 1960s.[11] This was due to McGrath's belief that gimmicky animated films focused too much on realism. To help his staff McGrath would play the opening scene of Lady and the Tramp (1955) for new hires specifically noting that the film "should exist piece of cake on the eyes and really lead your center to what'south important in the shot.[13]

Miles Bakshi, son of the DreamWorks Animation's producer Gina Shay and grandson of the moving-picture show director Ralph Bakshi, who directed the 1972 American adult animated one-act film Fritz the Cat, provided the vocalization of vii-year old Tim. Having been often present at DreamWorks, McGrath initially asked Bakshi just to provide a temporary vocalism for Tim to encounter if the graphic symbol "worked". The producers listened to 30 to twoscore children to choose the scratch voice. McGrath explained their decision: "No one sounded as authentic as Miles did. A lot of child actors are cracking, only they are over-articulate for their age. Miles was merely natural and charming. He had a little slur to his voice at the fourth dimension and it was very endearing." Three years later, Miles was told that he got the part.[15] Bakshi was 10 when he began recording the voice. During the long process, his vocalization started to change and "by the stop it got pretty tough", according to Bakshi, who was 14 when the film was released. He had to go his voice "very soft, but when I got that perfect tone information technology was great."

The film was scored by Hans Zimmer, who had previously collaborated with McGrath on the Madagascar trilogy (2005–2012) and Megamind (2010), forth with Steve Mazzaro, Jacob Collier, and various artists. The film'south soundtrack was released on Back Lot Music & iTunes. "Blackbird" by The Beatles is used as part of the plot at various points throughout the motion picture.[16] During the end credits, Missi Unhurt recorded a encompass of the Burt Bacharach vocal "What the World Needs At present Is Love" (first performed by Jackie DeShannon).
