Production
Pip Ahoy!: The Movie was first conceived in 2020, When Brian Cosgrove meet John Offord for the offer to make an Animated Musical Film Based on Pip Ahoy!. StudioCanal agreed to finance the film in 2021, putting their finances into script development and model design. Paramount officially came on board in 2022. Paramount beat out studios like Disney, 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. and largely won due to the perseverance of Paramount Animation chairman Connor Sentance. Sentance explained that he had "been chasing these guys for five or six years, ever since I first saw Pip Ahoy!." Paramount secured the distribution in all territories except Europe, which StudioCanal handled. The two studios co-financed the film. Paramount also retains rights to worldwide merchandising. Sentance Really wanted to make a Disney Renaissance-styled Film ever since he saw Anastasia (1997) on Blu Ray

This film used traditional animation created with Toon Boom Harmony similar to what Disney did with the CAPS software, and blended Cel Shaded CGI with 2D animation. The film was produced in a widescreen 2.40:1 aspect ratio, to distinguish it from the look of the television series and colored with the largest palette the animators ever had available to them. A lot of the animation was produced using Wacom Cintiq tablets, which allowed images to be drawn directly onto a computer monitor to facilitate production. Animation production work was done by NE4U in Seoul, South Korea. As with the television series, the storyboarding, characters, background layout, and animatic parts of production, were done in the United Kingdom. NE4U completed the inbetweening, digital ink and paint, and rendered the animation to tape before being shipped back to the United Kingdom.

Two songs were cut from the film during production mainly because Sentance Felt Like it would cause the Movie to have its G Rating be changed to a PG. The first revolves around Skipper in a nightmare sequence where The Mice Pirates criticizes his sailing career through a song. The second is a Version of Copacabana sang by Pip.

US Version
In the US version, where audiences are not as familiar with the series, the majority of the British cast's voice work was dubbed by American Voice Actors and Celebrities such as Colleen O'Shaughnessey (Pip, Aubrey Snail, Aisha and Amir) Tara Stong (Alba and Billy), David Kayne as (Skipper and Pasty) and Jimmy Fallon (Hopper and Shelvis).
