Trivia
Working out how five pelican birds would portray the three characters Mr Proud, Mr Ponder, and Mr Percival was similar to casting any role. "We let them develop their character, and let me tell you, pelicans all have very, very strong and distinct characters," said director Shawn Seet. "Through that we were able to decide which pelican would be Mr Percival, which would be Mr Ponder, which would be Mr Proud. They also developed very distinct tricks. Some were good at hide and seek, some were good at flying, so we were able to pick and choose who did what."
Quotes
