HTTYD3 Pannel: A Long Summary
Hi guys! As you all know, @poppys-fanworld, @megtoons, @leffie-draws-fanart, @raidesart, @furydiver, @haddock-the-third and me were at Annecy for the HTTYD3 projection last Thursday. We were able to see and learn a lot of things so there will be SPOILERS in this post. Also, for a better understanding, we will illustrate this post with drawings from @leffie-draws-fanart, @poppys-fanworld and @megtoons!
The dialogues are from @haddock-the-third who’s been able to transcribe them all :)
The notes are from @poppys-fanworld and me :)
We will present you the panel in a chronological order, so here we go:
When we entered the projection room, there were goodies on our place: a bag with a cap, a balloon and a paper plane.
The screen was showing the DreamWorks logo. Soon, the room becomes full of balloons and paper planes. There was a very cool atmosphere, everyone seem really excited. Then, a professional from Annecy introduced the HTTYD3 cast and started with its Producer: Brad Lewis. Brad said that this third movie is considerate as the most beautiful and accomplished movie that DreamWorks has ever made. He also said that Dean was a “master story teller”. Then it was Bonnie Arnold’s turn and she said that she will adapt Cressida Cowell’s Wizard of once new books.
Brad Lewis talked again and he said that new technologies have been used for the movie for this emotional ending made of adventure, friendship and romance. Then, Dean finally arrived. He started to talk in French with the Quebec accent and then he was telling the same thing in English. He said that he will show us animation tests and incomplete footages during the projection. At the end of this sort of introduction, the trailer of How to train your dragon: The Hidden World played on the screen in 4K.
II. The art of HTTYD: the Hidden World
Firstly, Dean showed Hiccup’s evolution through the three movies. For each one, Hiccup is dealing with a dilemma.
“Reconciliation with his father, with his mother and then, with himself.”
As to the design, Dean said that all the characters have now a totally fireproof flight suit and he showed us the gang in badass amours. Their flight suits are based on their dragons’ scales. Then he presented each character with their design armor. Here are some sketches of Leffie and Poppy to have an idea of the characters’ look:

After this, we were able to see an animation test of Astrid. She’s sitting at a table, probably in the Great Hall but there’s no setting. While talking apparently to Hiccup, she can’t stop playing with her hair and looks embarrassed: “This all marriage thing… What do you think? Not that I’m into it! But yeah, what do you think?”
I remembered earring the theater dropping an “Aw” at this precise moment.
