Pretty much every CGI-heavy movie works right up to the end. Thing is, most of the later production is tweaking and perfecting the footage. Just look at the differences we saw between the trailers for this film. They've added additional snow and tweaked the character models. At this point, the basic footage is all mapped out and at least reasonably close to finished. All they need is someone to pick some shots they want to use in advertising and the animators will put some extra work into those particular scenes so they can be shown to the public. Even that footage will see additional tweaking before the final film is released, but at least that way they're able to show footage in trailers while putting their best work into the final film.

and as i have said before the editors of the trailers are NOT the same editors for the movie.


and not every trailer is the same guy (although in this case it may be since 2 of them are so close to the same thing)

so its not like they are working double time

most of the guys i went to school with edit more trailers than they do films some have never even touched a full movie
