Production
Jeff Schu, Andrew Gordon, Veerapatra Jinanavin, and Arturo A. Hernandez co-directed the film and Hernandez wrote the film. Jinanavin graduated from the Academy of Art University and worked as an intern at Pixar, where he met Gordon in 2007. Jinanavin founded Riff Studio in Thailand in 2009, with three animators, but this grew to around 200 by 2025.[4]
Chawalit Arayavarorm pitched Out of the Nest to Jinanavin in 2016. The idea was that seven royal fledgling birds with distinct personalities would be entrusted to a teenage goat delivery boy who dreams of becoming a barber. Riff Studio sought the help of Schu and Gordon to help fund the film. Gordon joined the production to help with storytelling, but became one of its directors. The film had a budget below USD$10 million.[4]
Due to a lack of experience with computer animation in Thailand, work was outsourced to the Chinese company Base FX. Some elements of the film were censored by the China Film Administration.[4]
