    Hi! I live in Germany and just found out about Dingo Pictures last week because i went into our local C&A and noticed that they still showed the same animations they had when i was young. I thought it was Disney back then and was kinda shocked to see how bad it was. I think they showed arisha at the store and its kinda interesting that a company as big as C&A bought this animations and never changed them in at least 16 years. There also was a date at the end of the movie. Since its not clear when the movies came out, i could go back and look at it once more.

Dalmatiner 3 auf PS2 war früher weit verbreitet hier, gefühlt jeder 2te hatte das. Arisha ist übrigens sau selten zu finden. Schau mal im Dingo Wiki vorbei.

    I did a bit more research and found out that Simone Greiss is still working as an actress. What shocked me was in her CV, she had earlier described (in German) that when working for Dingo Pictures, their work was plagerized. :P (UPDATE - 2019 - She has since deleted that part.) I couldn't believe the nerve that they admit it. She has since changed it, though - probably to keep from getting sued. I did not see, however, that she was married to Ludwig Ickert. As for the man himself behind it all, all I was able to dig up is that he is a much older man and that he had been the lead guittarist in a local German rock band called Royal Teens and the last bit of news on him was a town notice in German mentioning his 70th birthday. Now for clarification, this may be another Ludwig Ickert, so I could be wrong. Otherwise, very little information about him. If you want to look up Simone Greiss (and this is confirmed to be her), here is more info on Simone Greiss - www.simonegreiss.de/

I think all but two of them are Dutch...the guy that does Wabuu's voice (and others) sounds German and that one woman sounds North American. IIRC, on their old website they linked to a freelance voice acting company that I assume they used to cheaply dub their movies into different languages.

    I watched about 2 of their "movies" and they were fucking traumatizing. The scariest part of these cartoons is the music.
    The animation was also sometimes terrifying. There were places in the cartoons where the character is looking towards the camera and theyre head is shaking not in the way like its denying something but literally just shaking. Im still recovering from...this

    Great work on this video! It was very informative and well-researched! ^_^ I definitely learned some stuff about Dingo Pictures that I didn't know :3
    I'm pretty fluent in German, so I decided to go out and do some of my own research in order to answer some of the questions that require knowledge of the German language, and I made some pretty interesting discoveries, mainly about the translations of the films:
    - So, first of all, I took a look at the translations dubbed by the more common (possibly in-house) Dingo cast. I compared lines from the German versions of Goldie, Pocahontas, The Mouse Police and Dalmatians 2/3 to their English counterparts. As far as I can tell, the translation quality is mostly acceptable -- the translations themselves are pretty straight, word-for-word translations with only minor errors, but they seem rushed and leave little regard for detail. I'm guessing that the translator was either a native German speaker or fluent in German, and they had at least a degree of fluency in English, but they were merely handed the film's script for translation. I'm basing this on the fact that some lines seems to have been translated without visual context. For instance, Charlie offers the protagonists "doggie cake" near the beginning of Dalmatians 2. "Doggie cake" is the literal translation for "Hundekuchen", which is what he calls the snacks in German, but judging by the footage, it would probably be more accurate to translate it to "dog treats". Additionally, the translations fail to carry over small nuances like dialects, and they rarely if ever attempt to translate character names. Most Dingo character names actually have a meaning. For example, "Wuschel" means something like "Fluffy", and the name of one of the dogs from Dalmatians 2, Tüpfelchen, means "small spots", so his name could be rendered as "Spot" in English. I theorize that their pool of voice actors were also natively German, or had a degree of German fluency, based on their distinctly German pronunciations of character names, as well as That One Moment in Pocahontas where the titular character yells "Nein! Nein!" in the English dub; comparing the English and German versions of the scene reveals that the English dub didn't actually leave in a bit from the German version -- the English dub actor seems to have spoken the dialogue herself. There's a noticeable difference in audio quality and vocals between the English and German versions, further backing this up. This further supports the theory that these dubs were done in-house -- perhaps the translators themselves served as voice actors, too. I'm assuming Pocahontas' actor was given a script where "Nein!" was left untranslated (again, side-effect of a rushed translation) and simply spoke the line as-is. Oddly enough, the dub of Pocahontas is filled with elementary-level translation errors, such as "Geheimnis", meaning "secret", being translated to "miracle", and "gemeinsame Sache machen", which is an expression meaning "working together" or "trucing" was directly translated as "doing things together". As for the EastWest dubs, I think the actors may be French, as the voices from the French dub of Aladdin somewhat match the English ones. As for the translations, they clearly weren't written by native speakers of English, but the translator does seem to have a decent grasp of German. The fact that stage directions are present in the dubs supports the theory that Dingo translators were handed scripts rather than visual materials. I think the Animal Soccer World dub might have been based on the Dutch version. Some of the grunts (for instance, the "duck siren") originate from the Dutch dub, as pointed out by Pheolus, and the song in the middle of the movie is in Dutch, as well. Phoenix had a branch in the Netherlands, so it's possible that Phoenix themselves dubbed the film. Lastly, the English version of Goldie from the Russian DVD has been uncovered, and it turns out the translation and dub seems to have a lot more effort put into them. It even attempts to translate the names -- for instance, Wuschel is named Bushy, which is a legitimate translation of the name.
    - A quick note about the staff beind Dingo Pictures: in some films, a man named Georg Felis is credited for voice acting and music. Felis is actually the leader of a children's theater troupe called FERRI, which is based out of Frankfurt. Their site www.ferri-kindertheater.de/ is still up, and they used to be credited for assistance during the creation of songs featured in their films, but the credit has since been removed and can only be found on archives of their page.

    again while trivial it still shows how hectic modern parents lives are to even get time to REALLY know their child and pay enough attention to deal about their interests. what im saying is if so many parents werent so distracted they would be harder to trick. im guessing these companies "prey" on these type of families. kind of sad if you think about it.

      A lot of these movies came out in the 90s when a lot of films had poor quality. Maybe some of them were bought as an addition to a collection. As a child, I owned a lot of Disney programs, but I also owned a lot of off-brand ones bc I was the one who saw them in the store and asked my parents to get them for me. They were entertaining enough for a 5 year old, they were cheap, appropriate, and they kept me happy, so my parents had no reason not to get them. Most of them were higher quality than Dingo, but not by much. I still enjoyed them, and that was all that mattered.

To name a few of the issues he has with the theory he brought up how it’s unfair to compare a 3000 hour anime with a movie, how you could easily cherry-pick a few similarities, and how the similarities that people bring up are very misleading or doesn’t make sense at all.

      I think it’s unfair to say Lion King was inspired by Kimba.
      First of all you’re comparing a 90 min movie with 3000 minutes (I said hours originally, but it’s actually minutes). These 3000 minutes includes several series and movies. When your making a movie about lions in Africa, you could easily cherry-pick a few similarities with an anime like Kimba and claim it inspired Lion King, but that is misleading.
      Some believe Kimba inspired the name Simba, but the latter means Lion is Swahili. Those who did the dub for Kimba has stated that they got their inspiration for the name from Swahili, and so did the Lion King creators.
      The message in Kimba has colonial undertones, and its a about educating and civilizing the animals by among other things teaching them how to sing and read, and it also has a pro-vegetarian message. In Lion King on the other hand eating meat is okay and it’s considered to be a part of the circle of life. But Kimba teaches the predators to eat bugs instead of other animals.
      And the character in Kimba some believe inspired the creation of Scar, only shows up in a few episodes, and he doesn’t have a scar before the 1989 show. He is not an important character, and he actually takes a bullet for Kimba to save him in one episode. And villain characters having a scar or facial deformity is a trope, and Kimba did not invent this trope.
      Majority of episodes in Kimba has humans in it, and there’s often a human conflict, like when Kimba attempts to warn a large group of elephants living in a hunting reservoir about how the humans plan to exterminate them all. In the end, the humans use military force, and the elephant-genocide is successful. Only two elephants survived.
      So considering Kimba and Lion King are so vastly different, I believe it’s unfair to claim that Lion King was inspired by Kimba.

I think this video also explains the crappy Bambi ripoff I watched on VHS once when I was a kid. It was on the second part of an otherwise unrelated VHS. It was not even mentioned on the packaging, I discovered it by accident by letting the VHS play after the main movie was over, like some kind of easter egg. I was always confused why I watched a movie that was like Bambi, even though I never watched the Disney movie. Now this mystery of my life is finally solved.

      Some "Mockbusters" are cranked out so quickly that they base the whole thing off trailers or even just press releases/story boards. I saw a review of a Disney knockoff once and the knockoff diverged from the Disney version in a few ways, and most of the differences were stuff that was included in the original storyboard and script but changed later in the final production meaning they most likely produced the knockoff before the Disney version was even in final production, much less released. I saw a Kung Fu Panda knockoff once where the knockoff had a few scenes clearly copied from the original trailer but _nothing else_ in the movie had anything in common with the original, and i heard the knockoff was released on DVD before Kung Fu Panda was even out in theaters.

    I think I have watched all of the Dingo films that have been dubbed into English. The highlights for me are when there is a song and I assume they weren't able to seperate the original German from the music track so you either get German songs being sung in an English fillm or even better English being sung over German which creates such a huge mess. I do get the feeling that most of the English dubs were done back to back. It would be great to track down some of the voice actors to get an idea about how the whole project came about and was executed.
