that's what interests me the most, to theorize how OWI works on their FMVS, and why they do or dont work, why they will or wont with CS.

OWI's FMVs for all four games so far have utilised internal production staff - modellers, animators, painters, etc.
All of this will be handled externally for the film; production will be outsourced.
I personally doubt it will look as good. I doubt they have the budget for Pixar-quality animation. It's relatively easy to make 10 minutes of high quality animation for a game when you have a few people working
only on it for a couple of years (and even then you get moments of cheap crap, such as Stranger's 2D clothes in the reveal FMV). Making 90+ minutes, in a significantly higher resolution, in a reasonable timescale, is too expensive.
The holy trinity is
speed - high quality - low costs. Thing is, you can only have two. Which two will Oddworld have for their film?
