  • Top 5 Disney! The Evolution of the Articulated Talking Disney Characters. Have you ever been to the Disney Theme Parks and seen the Disney characters talk; blinking their eyes and moving their mouths? Well Disney introduced the articulated talking characters (sometimes referred to as Disney animatronic characters) of Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy in the castle stage show Dream Along With Mickey at Walt Disney World in 2007 but articulated Disney characters have actually been around the Disney parks since the early 90s and on the Disney Channel in the 80s! Now you can see talking Disney characters at Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, Disney Live! and more, including an interactive meet and greet with talking Mickey Mouse!

    The Muppets not blinking their eyes was also probably aesthetics, IMO, to kinda match what the Muppets have going on outside of that particular stage show. Not many Muppets can blink, so even though the puppet/costumes seem a bit limited, it works pretty well where continuity is concerned.

      I think it would be harder for Woody with the type of jawline he has and could impact the wearer a little bit, but I would easily see Buzz and Jessey getting it. In fact it would be cool if Buzz's helmet could open and close, same with his wings and possibly a small laser (though the laser probably not for safety reasons).

      @@TPMvids: Just like "twerking" is a bastardization of break-dancing incorporating booty-shaking & pelvic-thrusting akin to many female popstars & "King of Pop" himself Michael Jackson, the "DAB" is essentially a shortened version of another type of dance that involves waving your arms from side-to-side as exhibited in Michael Jackson's _Thriller_ (the moves for which were already a take-off on the film "Boogie Nights") whereas a slower & slightly tweaked version of it, more or less, appeared for years in pro wrestling circles as a taunt for The KLIQ & its branch-off factions the New World Order (n.W.o) & Degeneration (DX), often in conjunction with saluting other members in the group or introducing other members into the fold, like when Kevin Nash brought in "HBK" Shawn Michaels to join the WWE version of the n.W.o upon his return to the ring in 2002 [ ua-cam.com/video/deFIgotEceI/v-deo.html ].

      Lol I used to watch a power rangers season called SPD. And a couple of the characters were (something like) like REALLY WELL MADE 'puppets' like that. I had kinda wondered how the heck the actor was able to do such smooth looking movements. It's like my favorite show (still is even though it was in like 2008) so I was all about looking at behind the scenes of the show. And I can't promise that the color of my face didn't leave, but at the same time laughed my head off (lol...head... I'm hilarious XD), when I saw that the actor's head had been seeing through the character's kinda tall neck but didn't look too weird, which had made out of mesh. And the thing that got me laughing was seeing how tiny he looked in the costume (the costume itself was very wide compared to his own so that they could have the head on it with 'comfortable' amount of space for his own head. But the thing that kinda bummed me out was seeing that everything above the neck was all wires. I mean I knew it had to have been something like that but I guess it just sucks seeing wires in one of your most favoritest characters' head.

    Oh Man, That is So Cool! I wish Viacom would make Talking Articulated Nickelodeon Characters!
    They could be from SpongeBob SquarePants, Fairly OddParents, TUFF Puppy, The Loud House,
    Blue’s Clues, Thomas and Friends, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Tiny Toon Adventures, Madagascar,
    The Wubbulous World of Dr. Seuss, My Little Pony, Littlest Pet Shop, Care Bears, and More!❤️

    i absolutely love the articulated characters. the last time i was at disney (june of 2017), i went to the meet and greet for magician mickey. it was so realistic and beautiful to me that i started crying as i was walking out. it really was a dream come true to see a role model and icon of mine come to life in that way.

  • @nicholasglenn7404

    From what I know, Jim Henson helped create the first performer based character in which the character could move its mouth. Today at Disney, some characters are able to move their mouth and eyes, and some even can make facial gestures.
    From personal experience with character performing, the mouths are moved by using what is referred to as a "mech." A mech is a device that the performer holds on to in one hand,
    with one or two fingers placed on a lever, pulling it down would open the mouth, and letting go would close the mouth, explaining why in some clips, the characters hand synced with the movement of the mouth. Some mechs are designed differently depending on which company makes the costume, and of course the year they were made.
    Today, Disney stage character performers use mechs, bite guards (for free range of hands), or the newly introduced "auto mech", which is a synched set that is preset to move at a certain time. Staged shows for example, have a track, and the mouths and eyes are pre set to move when the character talks, all controlled by a base, which would be where all the controls for the show are, and a reciever, which is placed in the specific characters head. Due to the fact that most performers eye sight are through the mouth, when the character is not talking/singing, the mouth will remain open for full sight.
    Although the "moving of the mouth" (or professionally referred to as "meching" (for the mechanical movement of the mouth done by the performer) may be different for characters with Disney, as far as I know it used to be the same.

      Ted Sowards yes! Hollywood Studios, but they’re built more like animatronics. They don’t have cast members who are ‘friends’ of them. What TPMVids is talking about are the show characters that have people who are ‘friends’ on said characters.

    As a side note, during the Dream Along With Mickey show, the characters were controlling themselves the actuation of their eyelids and mouth with their fingers. This can most clearly be seen on Minnie between 9:53 and 10:00 where you can see that here left hand fingers control here eyelids and here right hand fingers control her mouth. Today, this is radio controlled and synchronized electronically with the soundtrack.

    I'm curious if we'll ever see this technology implemented into other theme parks (i.e. Universal and Six Flags). I really like this new tech as it gives the characters more animation than before. I'm really curious to see how this will go and evolve in the next couple of years.

    When I went to the meet and greet with Mickey in the magics kingdom, I had no idea he could talk. When we walked in and he said 'hello everyone' I was overcome with emotion and broke out crying. It was one of those rare magic moments that only Disney could pull off.
