I'm so thankful that these pencil tests exist these are my first time watching them and I must say that these make Jafar seem way more insane and overruling then what was shown in the finalized and finished version of the movie
I was just rewatching the first episode of TailSpin and was shocked to see that one shot of Baloo walking into his home was copied near-directly from Milt's Sheriff walk. 17 years later, they were still recycling this walk cycle :P
Scar always impressed me as a design because you can literally feel the “vibe” of Jeremy Irons’ line delivery in every scene he’s in. He practically crawls around his line-reads, and the poses reflect that so well. That kind of “impossible” negative space of his mouth shapes is so charmingly nasty, literally always talking out the side of his mouth. Being a nasty fella can be SO rubbery and expressive, these pencil tests PROVE that
Just realized how much Scar looks like Jafar. Then again, Disney does have very distinct animation eras, and one can usually tell if the same group of animators worked on a movie. Judging by Scar's "head swaggles", as I've heard them called, I'm guessing you may have done some training under Milt Kahl.
I loved doing all the interviews and directing the Disney Family Album series. Milt was one of my favorites. For one thing, he did very few interviews, so it was an honor to get to speak with him. And I'll never forget the expressions he made when he was doing that Pinocchio drawing. Fierce and focused, and very alive, like he was pouring his own life into the drawing. I could imagine him making those same faces while he was at his animation desk. I'll have a few stories about Milt that have never been told before in the book I'm writing, 'Me and the Mouse,' about my experiences over 20 years working with The Walt Disney Company. [Andreas Deja--would you like an advance copy? One of Milt's stories involves you. Naturally.]
I've been collecting vintage Disney documentary stuff on my rumble page including the Walt Disney Family Album. I wish that series had went on and we need a revival to capture all of the important real history of the 80's and 90's now...Was there a lot of interview material that didn't make it into these shows? Do you think that material still exists?
@@edmccray212 Yes, I'd guess we shot 3 or 4 times as much footage as as we used in each show, the exceptions being shows like Voices or Disneyland Designers, where we featured multiple people in an episode.
@@quantumstoryteller Does that unused footage still exist? What a treasure trove those shows are. Were there any planned episodes that didn't get finished or made? From what I've read, Eisner shut down anything Card Walker was involved with including this and a mini series about Walt. I wish this stuff would have been allowed to continue.
@@edmccray212 Yes, i wrote the mini-series with L.G. Weaver. Chris Vogler, who wrote The Screenwriter's Journey, was the story analyst that Eisner sent it to for coverage. Vogler called me to tell me that he was giving it the highest possible recommendation to Eisner. There will be a chapter in my book about what happened with the mini-series. It involves Eisner, Card Walker, and Diane and Ron Miller. The politics were crazy. At one point, when he was still at Disney, John Lasseter announced in a meeting that he wanted The Family Album series to continue, but nothing ever came of it.
@@edmccray212 Because Andreas was able to locate the unused Milt footage, I assume the outtakes from the other shows exists, too. I have no idea where it would be. Andreas would have a better guess than mine.
How did he get the background to stay the same? Was he using transparent tracing paper so the cat showed on top of the background ? This is pencil so it can’t be cellophane
So interesting to see how there were some shots, and also lines of dialogue, that were either reworked or scrapped completely in the final film. Also I'm surprised how rough these tests could be in their earliest stages. Some of these tests are barely legible scribbles. Just enough information to go on to get a basic idea of how the scene will play out.
This is one of my all time favorite animations, this scene always got me as a kid
Milt Kahl was a genius imo at animation.
Hector Salamanca
Disney animation is so realistic and it’s just the best animation ever
Now I see where Don Bluth got his signature animation style from.

Great presentation! Thank you. And his work on Cinderella was fantastic! After all, he was married to the fairy godmother!
Had to animate this skip straight-ahead for my advanced animation class at SVA. The first time in that class I was proud of what I'd accomplished.

Please Andreas Deja, leave a translation.
Oh, Miltie-Pie!
Next Pencil Test: Eric Goldberg animated Jafar in Phineas Adventures (1998)
As an animator myself, I still can't get over the fact that he's drawing with a sharpie! That's mad talent right there.
Robin Hood's voice actor, the late Brian Bedford, was known for playing drag roles, and this was likely a reference to that.
This is an issue in the VFX industry too. Some assignments are high profile..... Milt was great at villains. Maybe someone else wanted a turn?😅
This is one of my favorites, and one has to especially admire the superb job Peter Ustinov did.
Magnificent movie.
Thomas looks so different with tiger stripes, almost like Tigger.

Do you have any tests for Theme Song Guy?
Andreas Deja, mein persönlicher Held!! Und darum in Kunst auch Unterrichtsinhalt 🤓
Many don't know but his full name is Scarborough
This is like listening to Michelangelo talk about how to do sculpture. This is a pure treasure. Thank you for posting this.
