Text of the page (random words):
her voice and her key scenes were animated by milt kahl equally brilliantly you would think that walt might have given this character to either frank thomas or ollie johnston who always had a sensitive touch in their animation but frank had his hands full animating the stepmother and ollie was doing the stepsisters it is obvious that milt was able to do warm stuff as well some of his previous assignments include pinocchio bambi and thumper the following milt rough animation drawings show dimension and delicacy especially in the character s face and hands posted by andreas deja at

one week so for now i d like to share some thoughts with you on the current state of animation recently i had the chance to spend some time at dreamworks and at blue sky studios i found the energy and enthusiasm in both places very exciting it still feels a little bit odd though to talk to animators who grew up on the films i worked on at disney comments like i was eight years old when i saw aladdin and that s why i wanted to be an animator make me feel old for one thing but they also flatter me after all i was about ten when i saw jungle book which changed my life to know that disney animated films from the 1980ies and 90ies had the same effect on young aspiring artists is simply incredible the work being done at dreamworks and blue sky is beautiful there will be some great films released in the near future and i know that pixar and disney also have amazing titles coming up and yet i am waiting for a studio to show the courage for an artistic left turn there is nothing wrong with photo realism which is the current cg style the degree of caricature might vary a little but all studios and all cg films are being presented in this hyper realistic world come on i need to see something that challenges my imagination more than this hand drawn animation is so much about leaving things out showing only the essence to communicate something the line is your tool the viewer is challenged to accept drawings as living beings which gets him involved i remember watching the lion king stage show for the first time it has so many wonderful abstractions you see the puppeteers and the mechanics there is a joy in being in on the process i said this before i prefer the show over the movie you don t see any bad drawings hand drawn animation is similar in that way you are invited to accept something abstract as being real a few years ago my buddy mike gabriel at disney directed the short film lorenzo mike asked me to animate on it but at that time i was assigned to another project the pencil animation was done at disney s amazing french studio when i saw the finished film i couldn t believe my eyes a perfect fusion of hand drawn animation and cg treatment no traditional cel painted look here rough brush paintings moving with the kind of weight you see in good traditional animation i honestly thought this is the future a new concept for animation unfortunately nobody has followed up on this for now it s a one time shot some of my last conversations with frank and ollie centered around cg and pencil animation these guys were amazed at this new type of film making with a sense of what they can t do these days frank thomas expressed hope though that their kind of animation would survive because when done well it affects audiences in a unique personal special way i couldn t agree more posted by andreas deja at 10 00 pm 83 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday april 15 2012 no carrots this scene proves that milt kahl was capable of animating most subtle and realistic acting extremely well prince phillip has just fallen off his horse samson into the water and he is not amused the previously promised carrots for samson are not going to be handed out some of you might know that milt absolutely despised working on the prince during one of our get togethers i asked him how he could do such a beautiful job on a character he loathes to my best recollection he said well the character needs to be in the picture i didn t like the assignment but you do the best you can that s saying something about milt s work ethics whatever goes into a disney film needs to be top notch the clarity in this scene is awesome phillip recovers from the fall moving forward toward the horse after samson picks up his hat he splashes him and then says his line within a final pose that way dialogue and the subtle raise of his eyebrows read beautifully by the way this is rough animation which was still traced in clean up for the inkers i can guarantee you this is by far milt s least favorite assignments out of all the characters he ever animated yet there is absolutely no sign of frustration or lowering standards just look at those drawings when talking about high standards milt said you owe it to yourself and the medium those are important words to remember ps blog reader xav created a pencil test with these drawings check it out https vimeo com 40482016 posted by andreas deja at 10 10 pm 27 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest saturday april 14 2012 dopey this is a fred moore staging sketch showing sneezy i think interacting with snow white here we see fred s version of the girl more cartoony than the final model which of course is much more realistic it makes you wonder if the animators could have gotten the same emotional range out for the character using a design like this one come to think of it this snow white drawing could very well be a caricature of an employee at the studio in any case fred moore drew the leading lady very much like one of his famous freddy girls fred set the look for all of the dwarfs and animated many scenes with them as a group and in single close ups his tour de force character is dopey who along with the other six underwent quite a graphic change as he developed just compare the early model sheet already beautifully drawn and full of character with the finalized design what an astonishing improvement in appeal dopey turned out to be a real scene stealer in walt disney s first animated feature posted by andreas deja at 11 06 pm 9 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday april 10 2012 robin hood roughs more of milt kahl s work for robin hood the first sheet shows designs for maid marion and lady cluck before animation began the drawings look like they are just about to click meaning they are waiting to be animated in order to establish that perfect kahl look the following milt roughs were done for an ollie johnston segment of the film the last part of the archery tournament maid marion seeking comfort from lady cluck presents a staging challenge and milt s sense for clear silhouette and pleasing shapes combined with the proper emotion helped make this a better scene the last image with robin and marion could have been problematic in terms of believability after all it shows two anthropomorphic foxes being in love again milt s subtle draughtsmanship and sense for appeal prevent this from being a corny situation posted by andreas deja at 11 39 pm 13 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest sunday april 8 2012 skippy co a little late as an easter post but i hope you will enjoy these drawings of skippy his sisters and friend toby turtle from robin hood milt kahl drew these development sketches based on character concepts by ken anderson at first glance they look like typical disney formula designs from the 1960ies and 70ies but the magic is in the subtle proportions especially in the faces the older bunny sister is particularly appealing with her slightly elongated upper muzzle without milt s touch these characters might have looked overly cute and generic actually a lot of scenes in the film animated by a variety of animators don t look this good the acting is ok but they lack the charm and appeal you see here then again everybody knows that milt s designs were often tough to follow the sequencial drawings are from a kahl scene they show how he brakes down a fun bunny hop posted by
