At the very end of _The Secret of #Kells,_ the chi-rho page gets revealed and animated, every detail comes alive and takes its place in the general design, it's awesome. Then the camera slowly backs up and it ends up on a short fixed frame showing the whole page. What I find truly amazing is that the studio had to actually redesign it! The whole thing!! I so wish I had a high-res file and/or print of this 😍
