"Raising Arizona is basically a live-action episode of Looney Tunes, right? The violence, the comedy, even the plot just feels like it was ripped from Saturday morning. I basically had that in mind the entire time I was working on this. The initial sketch only used characters that were originally from the diaper chase-scene (the cops, the dogs, the convenience store clerk, etc.), but then I realized I'm a grown-up and can do whatever I want and everyone was on board with putting in Dot, Arizona Sr., and so on. As for the palette, using this many colors almost feels like a cheat, but we wanted it to be as vibrant as a the film deserves. Oh and sky was meant to be a subtle nod to the "That's All Folks!" closer. Like I said...Saturday morning cartoons." - Andrew Kolb
