Opening on August 17 is LAIKAâs awesome 3D stop-motion feature, ParaNorman. Directed by Chris Butler and Sam Fell, the film centers on a young boy who can see the dead and must use this gift to lift a curse that threatens his small town.  ParaNorman features the voices of Kodi-Smit McPhee, Anna Kendrick, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, John Goodman, Casey Affleck, Leslie Mann, Jodelle Ferland and more. For more on the film, hereâs six clips, a very cool featurette called Time Lapse, and all our previous coverage.At the recent Los Angeles press day I spoke to Butler and Fell. We talked about making ParaNorman, how the story changed along the way, the technical challenges, and the balancing act of doing a film for all ages that has zombies and scary moments. Hit the jump to watch.And if you missed my video interview with Christopher Mintz-Plasse where he talked about ParaNorman and Kick-Ass 2, click here.Directors Sam Fell and Chris Butler
