Production

Sands Films, the production company that made the film, is owned and run by Christine Edzard, the screenwriter and director known for her meticulous filmmaking, often based on Victorian English sources, and her husband Richard B. Goodwin.

Their other productions include Stories from a Flying Trunk (1979), Biddy (1983), Little Dorrit (1987), The Fool (1990), As You Like It (1991), Amahl and the Night Visitors (1996), The IMAX Nutcracker (1997), The Children's Midsummer Night's Dream (2001) and The Good Soldier Schwejk (2018).

Like Stories from a Flying Trunk, The Nightingale is based on a story by Hans Christian Andersen, with elaborate costumes and intricate sets. The film used stop-frame animation with figures made of sheet lead, including their fingers, to stop the moving parts from fracturing during filming.
