image of tigress from the app! this seems to be a draw-over or a painted version of the sculpture by damon bard, here's an image from his portfolio for comparison

community help with finding a lost kfp2 app!
tldr; lost ipad app with behind the scenes content and excusive art from kung fu panda 2
greetings pandom! ever since 2019 i've been a MASSIVE fan of kung fu panda, practically becoming obsessed with the franchise and learning whatever i could about the movies themselves. one of my huge fascinations has always been with the concept art and visual development, which is why i practically lost my sanity upon first hearing about this
when kung fu panda 2 came out in may of 2011, an artbook was published by insight editions to go along with it much like its predecessor - providing a glimpse into the movie's production. however, with the physical artbook came a lesser known digital companion app meant for the ipad.
it had an even more in-depth look into the movie serving as supplementary material to the artbook itself. it included; galleries with characters, locations, storyboards and other miscellaneous information that was exclusive to the app, all curated by kfp2's production designer raymond zibach.
however the app is no longer available, removed at some point due to insight edition's contract expiring with dreamworks. much of the content is lost and scattered, however there are scarce remnants. the UX designer for the app worked closely with raymond zibach, assisting in the curation process by selecting video and artwork to bring the world of kung fu panda to life.
pictured below are some screenshots from within the app showing the layout and sections
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
the UX designer used a 3rd party application to make the app, but unfortunately does not have any of the actual files themselves, only the screenshots.
i know there are many out there who are just as passionate for all things kung fu panda whether it be related to the animation, characters, themes, unused concepts or the hard-work of artists and animators alike - especially kung fu panda 2! any assistance, help or leads in locating or recovering content from the app - screenshots or otherwise - would be greatly appreciated and a huge boon to fans!

false alarm, it is NOT from the app - or at least the source of it isn't. from jason brubaker's blog

another add-on to the post! recently a color key was discovered from a video compilation of random artwork from deviantart, also by jason brubaker and labeled ''rhino is killed''
Tumblr media
a small snippet of the color key can be found in the physical art of kung fu panda 2 as shown above, however the full color key looks like this

An incredible amount of detail went into designing elements for Kung Fu Panda 2. Here are some examples of what surfacer Fernanda Abarca contributed to the film.
As a surfacer it’s always super exciting to work on films that allow lots of detail. Kung Fu Panda is definitely one of them. The art direction is superb on this film, and they really push for believability.
