After you do the scenes they say, ‘Okay, let's just say the line over again.

When you go there they lay down the first bit of stuff, and not having the advantage of working with the other actors, you're working with another actor reading your off camera line, and you do the scenes. My children came to some of the sessions, because we live in the east, I did some sessions with Frederik here and then some sessions on a soundstage in Queens, and my children came and watched. I did Olive, the other Reindeer with Drew Barrymore and I did Cats and Dogs, and for me this is a family affair. "I've been very successful in doing these voices in movies," Pantoliano said.

Joe Pantoliano, who plays the voice of a pelican named Goose, brought his kids in to see the recording sessions, as he has done with other voice roles. The adult cast of the film was excited to put out a project for the young ones in their lives too. Some of the ones that we had were so sweet and so well trained it was amazing, amazing what we did with these zebras. They walk in zigzag lines and you would have to tug to get them to stop. They've got really tough mouths, so it was me sitting there and you would have to tug, where as with a horse you can just sort of glide them along. Unless you stick a lion behind them and even then they won't even run in a straight line. They're very slow animals actually, zebras. But it's very different than riding a horse. You've got your nice ones and you've got your horrible ones and you've got your totally crazy ones. They each have their own personalities and it's very interesting to see. "It was so fun because zebras are very different than horses. The schools are gorgeous over there and they're so proper, so well brought up." It was like in heaven being there and I wound up visiting these schools. And, the boy whose birthday it was got up and started singing and my voice coach was singing along with him and he turns around in the middle of it and goes, ‘stand up.' And they started singing together and I wound up meeting all of these gorgeous guys. And we're sitting there, like here's their table and there was a round table and then another round table and we were at this one, and somebody spilled their wine all over the table so we had to move. "It was funny because we went to and we looked beside us and there was this long, long group of guys and it was like total fate that we met them because it was a birthday party. So Pantettiere filled her fans in on the real scoop. There's more of them? Oh my God."Ī teenage girl's dream, the handsome residents of South Africa are not represented in the film, which takes place in Kentucky.

And I remember going to Hilton and the girls, the sisters of the boys there going ,‘Let's go to Michael House.' Oh my God. They have these two schools in Nottingham Road, one was called Hilton and one was called Michael House, and these schools were known for the most gorgeous guys in like all South Africa.

"I had a good friend over there named Andreas. "They're accents are different but that's about it," she said. Originally hesitant to go to South Africa for a five month shoot, she grew to feel at home in the country. Hayden Panettiere provides the live action youth content as the girl who tries to ride Stripes to victory. I knew they were going to film zebras and was wondering how they were going to get Hayden to ride the zebra, but it looked good." I went to a zoo in Australia and they let me feed all the animals but they wouldn't let me touch the zebras because they're really mean animals.

"They filmed the movie in South Africa for six months or so. His only regret is that he never got to meet the real animals.
