Read more from the DreamWorks VOLTRON EventLast month, I had the opportunity to visit DreamWorks Animation Studios in California. I was very excited to tour the campus where such iconic movies and shows are created – it was absolutely fascinating to get a peek behind the scenes at how these animators bring a character to life. I even got to schmooze with a few fan favorites while I was there!
Beeb Meets Toothless
Part of the reason for my trip was to get a first look at Voltron: Legendary Defender, a new Netflix Original Series that debuts this Friday, June 10th.
Official Trailer: DreamWorks Voltron Legendary Defender
This re-imagining of the ’80s classic follows the adventures of five heroes who must work together to form Voltron, a giant robot that is the universe’s last defense against evil. Voltron is made up of five robotic lions operated by a different pilot, so teamwork is crucial in order to save the day. And in the spirit of cooperation and collaboration, I go the opportunity to play a unique game of Voltron basketball during my visit!
Playing Voltron basketball
I’ve never played a single game of basketball before in my life, and although I didn’t even come close to winning the match, I was proud of myself for shooting three whole hoops. I also came dangerously close to shooting the ball into someone’s nearby lunch, but fortunately, the power of Voltron was on my side, and the ball was intercepted before it destroyed someone’s salad. 😉
Voltron also taught me a few superhero moves while I was there. Watch out, bad guys! BAM! POW!
This is just the beginning of my legendary adventures with Voltron and DreamWorks, so stay tuned over the next week for more behind-the-scenes fun!
This looks like it was such a fun trip. I would love to experience the animation studio.

This looks like SO much fun! It looks like all the bloggers had a great time.
I like to visit here but it is so far from me, I wish we have this in the Philippines.
That sounds a fun adventure. You totally ruled the court! I have to check out that show tonight with the kids. I love shows that remind me of my childhood.
What a fun experience! I look forward to learning more about the fun you had behind the scenes.
This looks like a super cool time for sure! I would love to check it out.
Oh wow, that looks like so much fun! What an experience to be able to take part in. I vaguely remember Voltron from when I was growing up and had no idea they were bringing it back. I’d be curious how the new series is!
I can’t wait to see what you have to show us over the coming days. I loved Voltron back in the day.
The photo of you with Toothless is awesome! Absolutely one of my favorite Dreamworks films.
