As I was finishing up my animation I noticed that I was drawing a lot less and simply reusing animations in other scenes. I was curious if this was a commonly used technique? Sure enough, this is widely used, especially in older animated Disney films. I thought it was interesting that what we thought was a unique Disney animation was really reused from an older movie, just with different characters.
A collection of inspiration...
I remember your mom ha shown us this in class one day! I think it's so funny how obvious it seems now but before I didn't even think twice about it.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting how they use the same animation sequence, just with different characters. It probably saves a lot of time and headaches.. They also use the same dance with slightly different styles each time.
ReplyDeleteI remember coming across this myself and even when I was younger and noticing the animation sequences. How like, in Robin Hood, scenes from Jungle Book, Snow White, and the Aristocats were used in the dancing/singing portion of the movie in the woods. Super interesting to see and watch and you come to appreciate how efficient the animators got to lessen their workload.
