Production

The film came about after Laika held a contest for a short film idea. CG modeler Michael Berger's idea of a girl who controls the Moon was chosen, and Selick was hired to develop the short. Selick brought on They Might Be Giants to do the score after connecting with them through Courtney Booker, who worked on the music video for "Bastard Wants to Hit Me".

In May 2004, Laika president Travis Knight's brother, Matthew, died suddenly, and the film was dedicated to his memory.
