On the download page the very last download is a Behind the Scenes look at how the film was made. I assumed looking at it that there was a lot of CGI going on, but almost all of it is just plain good old fashioned creative filmwork (director says there are only 4 shots done with computer, and the GL/WW shots appear to account for half of those).

One thing I was surprised at was how little it cost -- $18,000 total about $3,300 per minute. Considering that "Batman & Robin" cost about $880,000/minute to make and wasn't nearly as good, they should hire this guy immediately. (And the Batmobile they've got for the film going now just has "Catwoman" written all over it. Batman shouldn't be driving a mini-tank IMO). Unfortunately, "Batman & Robin" actually was profitable once worldwide release & DVD revenues are figured in, so the studio won't learn anything.

The thing I really liked is that the conflict between Dick and Barbara in that 5 minute film had more drama and conflict than any of the several hour-plus long post-Tim Burton movies.
