Netflix Animation: Behind-The-Scenes With “Zima Blue” & The Opening Credits To “Tuca & Bertie”

One hands off to another.

It’s been a couple of months and by far the most talked about animated short as part of Netflix’s Love, Death, + Robots is Zima Blue. For those that don’t know, Zima Blue follows a renowned artist named “Zima” who recounts his mysterious past and rise to fame before unveiling his final work.

Netflix has posted a behind-the-scenes look at how the Zima Blue episode came together and you can watch it below. I’m willing to bet several farms that there’s more to this story then the just couple of minutes posted. In any event, you owe yourself to open up Netflix and watch Love, Death, + Robots and you can read our review to see why.
