These three principles were memorized and constantly referred back to by a number of Disney crew. Not realistic, but believable in the world that you are telling. Where they can’t wait to see what happens next.2) You populate that story with really memorable and appealing characters.3) You put those stories and characters in a believable world. One of the first things that Lasseter spoke about were his three guiding principles to making a great film.ġ) You have to tell a compelling story that keeps people on the edge of their seat. Ed Catmull and he have made since they came over from the merger with Pixar. They showed a shot of Flynn Rider and his encounter with the thugs where they took out certain looks and animation to really accentuate the punch line.Īfter the discussion we were greeted by John Lasseter, who made an unscheduled visit to speak about the film and the changes Dr. Additionally, they really chiseled away at a lot of the superfluous actions and stuck to the core of the character. This allowed animators to take back examples of how the character animation should look like, instead of just having notes. Something else that was really interesting was that during dailies, animation supervisor Glen Keane used a cintique to draw over the frames that were up on the screen in real time. This broke up the monotony of animating the same character over and over, and gave everyone the chance to work on a “character defining moment” for each.
One of the major changes they made for Tangled was that instead of assigning a character to a single animator or group, they instead rotated the characters. Joining us were directors Byron Howard and Nathan Greno, supervising animators John Khars and Clay Kaytis, and animator Zac Parrish. This process is almost therapeutic in a way, as it breaks the norm for animators and storyboard artist and gets them out of their offices. We gathered for a discussion about dailies, which is a key ingredient to hammering down the fine details and gives the crew a place to give and receive feedback in a collaborative effort. Starting from where I left off on my last report, all the groups that had been split off reconvened in the theater where we had screened the film earlier that morning.
