There is so much great #SpiderVerse behind the scenes content on Twitter if you start following some of the artists who created the film

And the sound artists too

And here's the screenplay in full!

I also enjoyed this piece about how @philiplord drove the decision not to include subtitles for the Spanish language dialog to better represent bilingual culture remezcla.com/features/film/…

Hidden Stan Lee cameo!

There are a LOT of Stan Lee cameos

"Practically improvised"!

Yeah they really deserved this

From this thread I learned that the screenplay says "The camera is UPSIDE DOWN. Miles isn't falling through frame. He's RISING."

Full screenplay PDF, released by Sony:

origin-flash.sonypictures.com/ist/awards_scr…

Now available to buy on iTunes, $19.99 (rental available March 19th) - and it comes with a Spider-Ham short! 🕷 🐽 itunes.apple.com/us/movie/spide…

Sony have made the first 9 minutes of the film available on YouTube

This is the best interview I've seen with the directors - really gets into the details of how they worked differently to make the movie

This reference video is solid gold

I had not realized that Miles' framerate increases to 24fps by the end of the movie

Here's a tweet from just before the movie came out with a preview of one of the early scenes - but I just noticed that the conversation attached to this tweet has a ton of extra insight from the animator on how he put the scene together

I love seeing reference shots like these

More awesome #SpiderVerse fan art

Another great reference shot - Aunt May in #SpiderVerse was my favourite version of that character anywhere

Spectacular cosplay family group

This thread has some gorgeous concept art
