Clannad (film)
The film was first announced to be in production at the Tokyo Anime Fair on March 23, 2006 for a planned 2007 release. The original character design was conceived by Itaru Hinoue, the art director from Key who worked on the visual novel. This design was later used as a template for Megumi Kadonosono who provided the character art for the film adaptation. Kadonosono previously worked on two other animated films released in early 2007: "Fashionable Witches Love and Berry: Magic of Happiness" as the chief animation director, and the "Kiddy Grade" film, also providing the character design. The screenplay was written by Makoto Nakamura who had worked on the first "Kanon" anime television series in 2002, and the "Air" film in 2005, two other anime adapted from visual novels originally made by Key. Finally, the film was directed by Osamu Dezaki, who has been involved with animation direction since the first "Astro Boy" anime in 1963, and went on to direct the "Air" film.
