“Working with the iloura team on Where The Wild Things Are has been a great pleasure. I can honestly say that they have gone beyond the call of duty when it came to really exploring the creative issues involved in what can only be described as a unique pipeline. Technically iloura were able to bring innovative solutions to the table and creatively, they were able to crack the performance of the characters very early on in the piece.”
