Tarzan got too little credit back in the day. I watched it again on Blu-Ray recently and, I must say, it's probably the pinnacle of 2D animation. That was a really well made, beautiful film.
@@avavr Maybe. Even tarzan doesn't really look like a real person. but in Akira or Ghost in the shell the animations are crazy good. Even talking about just "animation", I believe pinnochio or fantasia was the peak.
@@EmiTheLoomistar you should watch Jin-roh if you haven't yet seen it, I'd consider it one of the few animations that is near or has reached the pinnacle.
I love when a lot of thought goes into the physical design of a character like this. No offense to Frozen, but it's hard to get much out of the Barbie-like bodies and the huge eyes. I love the attention to anatomy here, and how they didn't feel that they needed to follow a formula.
Tarzan's eyes... His eyes always fascinate me. Now I understand how much emotion and sentiment the artist has put into the character, it all makes sense, and it's touching. Thumb up for Glen Keane and his passion of animation.
It’s my opinion that 3D animation just hasn’t been used to its full potential yet. With 2D, you have to draw every single frame, pouring all of your emotion into every brush stroke/pencil line. But with 3D animation you make one model (I’m talking about character animation by the way) then change it’s pose and expression slightly to fit a desired emotion. This doesn’t need to be the case, but it’s convention and it’s faster. If someone took the time, and gave each motion and expression a unique look and feel, and didn’t just let the computer do the work when it comes to shading and textures, then it may well get to the same quality or even higher than the best of 2D animation.
Glen's little anecdote about animating with his daughter in mind was very touching. You can tell the animators really put their heart and soul into the film.
i have dreams of becoming an animator, and i will be proud to be sticking to 2D hand drawn animation. there's something about a pencil and paper that a computer 3D figure just cant replicate.
Guys-- Beautiful 2D animation like this (or not) still exists, you just have to know where to look. Of course Disney won't do it anymore, they are a corporation and will ultimately do whatever gets them the most money, whether the product is genuinely good or not. However, they are in no way the determining factor as to what animation is. You can find beautiful stuff like this- or animation that is more outside the box, animation that is what you never thought it was- in independent animators, smaller companies, or even video games.
No. Only a few studios ever delivered this quality besides Disney - Warner bothers, Don bluth, dreamworks - and none of them make 2d animated films anymore either.
It's why it's sad that...Disney Animation Studios is no longer a department that focuses on 2 dimensional works of traditional art. Masters like Glen Keane put a lot of heart and soul into their traditional animation pieces. But it is nice to see him work on other modern works even if it doesn't give him much recognition like his traditional pieces. Have you seen "Over the moon"? On Netflix? That was a Glen Keane project. He put a lot of heart into it...and made it for a friend for her child and husband as a parting gift since she was passing away from terminal cancer. Glen Keane is a kind soul. ❤️
@@LivingDeadGurlXXX Yeah, I watched it and it's really cute! When I've seen the film and saw Glen Keane's animation for the first time, I was so excited (in fact, now I have the artbook of the film with his drawings too 💙)! Now 2D animation isn't really used in films, it can be found more in TV series; but even if it's not traditional with pencil and paper, and digital tools are used, I'd be happy anyway. A perfect example is _Klaus_ (it's on Netflix too), where most of the animation is 2D (maybe completely, I don't want to be wrong) and, thanks to a combination of lights and shadows, reminds of 3D! The artistic work behind that film is majestic! In my opinion, 2D is more beautiful than 3D: you can watch a film like _Tarzan_ , _Prince of Egypt_ and similar, and it looks like they haven't aged a day! They are perfectly enjoyable today. And sometimes, paradoxically, there are more emotions and action in 2D technique than in the 3D one. But these are simply my opinions! I hope that multinational companies like Disney and Dreamworks will also return to good old traditional animation even just once, and give great artists like Glen Keane the chance to show their masterpieces. There are so many people, like me, who would be enthusiastic. ❤️
Princess & the frog is one of my favourite movies. I just hpe they keep doing 2D because the last 5 movies they released have give them critical acclaim.
MrPotatoMadness it actually feels like the magic is lone gone... the last 4 movies are an improvement over the first 3d ones. but still kind of boring and shallow movies with bad musical taste. i know this is a very subjective issue, but the second renaissance had a great line up. frozen, tangled, and wreck it ralph felt like from dreamwork, while kung fu panda, and how to train your dragon felt like a movie out of a disney studio.
***** its all about the story and not about the technique. you can work 2d digitally and gain great products. but disney is very cheap, and wants to earn much and spend nothing. iron giant was a 2d/3d combination, great movie too. the french bring every year a few 2d films. not exactly disney stile, but greatly animated non the less.
When I draw expressions or certain emotions I find that I'm mirroring them as I'm drawing. I find that most artist do that and it's really funny. But cool that we're able to be empathise with a fictional character.
I've been trying to animate for 10 years now and I still haven't been able to draw a proper character body. I often find myself asking if I should give up, I already draw better then most people on the planet. Why should I continue drawing when I'm still struggling to draw a face even at the age of 23? My brains constantly tells me 'Look at all these people who are younger then you and draw better' and it's discouraging. However, I think God himself wants me to be animator. No matter how many times I take a 'break' and convince myself to quit. I always find myself back to places like this, no matter how much time passes. I always find myself looking at tutorials and being inspired to draw again after seeing a amazing animation. I feel like god himself is telling 'Keep going, one day, you'll be a legend too'. And today, I'm here again, even after a month of not drawing. Just what kind of butterfly will emerge when I start getting things right?
Have you ever heard of stop-motion? It works the same way as this kind of animation except without any drawing. I would look into it if I were you. Maybe even try to make a short video.
its so moving when the narrator talked about his own experience when he first met his own daughter😭😭💗 I love how they put their own lives into the disney films, it makes it so realistic and beautiful
damn i just came here for rope climbing reference and now I'm crying lmao. Glen Keane is amazing, not just in his art, but the way he describes what he's doing and his intent with with such passion and interest, it's so inspiring. As a burnt out animation student - i needed this ;-;
People say that the final product is what matters but honestly seeing the process of this movie makes me appreciate it more and want to see it again and again
+Cyrus the animator Somebody woke up on the wrong side of the bed today. theres a reason my animations are shity. its cuz I make animations with very limited time lines. symbol animation has nothing to do with my skill. if I spent months doing frame animation I could make some really cool stuff. but you cant expect to run a weekly youtube channel like that. thats why independent animation on youtube is dead. well... except for ghosttoast ;)
Cyrus the animator No no i totally get it. Im not trying to become a great animator im trying to make a profitable youtube channel. Sadly thats just they way it goes... Its funny though and kinda makes me frustrated at myself because when I first started my channel I was hellbent on the idea of creating quality cartoonnetwork style stuff. Your first comment is like exactly the type of thing I would say to people... Then over the months i released the animators on youtube who I idolize (Like harry _partridge) have been running their channels for years.
Cyrus the animator But! I dont know if you care to check out my channel in a couple of months. Ive gotten my youtube posting schedule down to a science. Currently working on long term projects That have nothing but actual animation in them. Im posting weekly cruddy videos to keep my channel from drifting off into the shadows.
Cyrus the animator IDK why I want your approval so bad -_- its like im talking to my past self trying to justify the fact that I've become the very thing I once despised! Why!!!!
The explanation about his daughter and that scene, I lost it bawling. This guy's got such an amazing feel for emotion. You know, in addition to timing and anatomy and movement.
Still my favourite Disney film of all time. I draw a lot, and when I have the time and inspiration, I make small animations. One day, I hope to be this good. ^_^
@@Soapuss Sadly, no. I've not returned to animation. I still want to, one day. I'm now pursuing a career in Graphic Design - something else I've always been incredibly passionate about. Thanks for your interest in my 6-year-old comment!
@daggersrule_1986 Very kind of you to take an interest in a comment from 9 years ago - and from a total stranger, no less! Sadly, I doubt animation will be a career for me at this point. I haven't animated in well over 10 years. I'm still very interested in animation and would love to pick it up again as a hobby one day - perhaps when I have more time and inspiration. However, I'm pleased to say I've been focusing on a career in graphic design for the past 3 years (6 if you include university before that), and I’m now working for a board game and card game company, designing adverts for upcoming games. I've created artwork for events, had a small hand in some artwork for a theme park, and have recently designed my first piece of board game packaging. So, I guess you could say it's going pretty well - all things considered!
Over the years 3d animation has been pushed and enhanced,tremendous amount of study has been made,but we realized that 3d is not going beyond the sophisticated puppet movement,requiring too much effort to make it not plastic looking never reach the quality or fluidity this kind of animation,cause in here(2d) you engineer the animation itself.
The best animations will be exagerated realistic movements. Some 3d today has lost the expressive exageration and sticks to being an accurate human movement. Some 3d has just a normal mouth, but a lot of memorable animations will exagerate the mouth. So it goes between being a normal mouth and then the mouth taking up a third of the face.
Incredible. I like the rough sketches more than them flattened out with color. You can really appreciate the form and movement so much more like this. I'd love to watch a movie in animation test format. You'd be able to see the art so much more. So much respect for the animators.
You have to admire these sketches and rough animations. I feel like people watch the finished movie and think that with everything changing and moving, it couldn't have been that hard to make. You watch these, and you are blown away by the amount of effort and talent that go into these films.
It’s so interesting hearing about how animators used to get their inspiration for characters movements and their animations. Besides studying the live animals of course, they would just travel, they’d travel around the world in places they thought would benefit them; they’d see a statue they liked or they’d see a roller blader doing a cool trick or anything small like that which struck a chord, and use that as something to go off of. You can really tell the eye for detail they have, it’s the detail about things that they notice, not just the thing. I think it ready says something too, they didn’t have what we had where we can look up any video we’d like to study or any place and see it in great detail, and in our convenience we’ve boiled down to only doing 3D animation (Though I still acknowledge the artistic talent and effort it takes, and I know sometimes some still travel to get inspiration) and I think maybe, going out of the way they did in order to see what they could find in person, doing it all by hand, it gives it a sort of charm new animation will never have. It’s better, in my opinion. It feels like these people really had something, they experienced the world in such a way that brought us some great movies, through raw talent and taking what they had in front of them and rolling with it. I have a lot of respect for old school animators.
This is so deep! I love it so much ! I love that artists can experiment there life memories and put them into a movie it's just so heart warming ❤️❤️ I hope I can be like them one day !
Imma wait till this comes in everyone's recommended cuz it is already in mine. Seems like this was previously recommended 6 years ago, there may be some pattern, we may be onto something.
3D animation is cool, but there’s something so special about hand-drawn animation. Knowing every frame was drawn with so much care to detail. I think it’s one of the reasons older Disney movies still have so much charm.
I am a 21 year old boy today and i saw this movie probably when i was 5 or 6, my existence in this world would have been void if had never seen Tarzan. Today @ 21 they just dont make 2D movies any more. I seriously wish i was born 20 years before 1998 Glen Keane & Phil Colins You'll be Here In my Heart......Always........
OMG! WOW This is so *AMAZINGGG* and COOL and Intriguing! GAH I just *LOVE THIS*! I gotta say even though these animations are difficult I like this one much better BUT although some animations in 3d are quite impressive just like in HTTYD2 man that one was #AMAZING too xD I wanna learn to do that one day! :D
There's always been something about the way Tarzan's hair was drawn that's always caught my attention for some reason. Probably why my own characters have similar shaped long hairstyles in my art style today.
This is true animation. Even animators like Don Bluth have cautioned that 3D animation is moving towards more and more realistic story telling, but the beauty behind traditional animation is the ability to exaggerate expression. I would like to see more balance between the animation styles than moving towards realism
Often times with all the media and new technology, it's easy to take the focus off what true value is. Walt Disney wasn't just a successful man, he was a man who wanted animation to be timeless. Cell and drawn animation in Disney films today might be a fading thing, but these works will never fade. And I think they should stick to it based on that realization.
Wow...this is legendary. Right now Google, UA-cam, and creative softwares make things easy for us. We fail to acknowledge and appreciate how much work and study had been kept into traditional animation that dates back to 14 years and even more. I'm in love with this process.
Let's be honest... in reality, Tarzan would be crippled if he tried to stand up-right... having your knees bent like that for years... yeah... don't think you'll be able to walk
Ok guys imagine this.......a Spiderman animated movie......with spiderman being animated by Glene Keane.....
That would be .....just.... Beautiful

UA-cam recommending me this after 14yrs!
Well I'll watch.
Nobody:
UA-cam: want see somethings cool 14years ago ?
Yes OMG
This is great. I'm really disapointed that they quit 2D animation- it would be so great to see more Disney dog movies, just for old times sake.
It’s so interesting hearing about how animators used to get their inspiration for characters movements and their animations. Besides studying the live animals of course, they would just travel, they’d travel around the world in places they thought would benefit them; they’d see a statue they liked or they’d see a roller blader doing a cool trick or anything small like that which struck a chord, and use that as something to go off of. You can really tell the eye for detail they have, it’s the detail about things that they notice, not just the thing. I think it ready says something too, they didn’t have what we had where we can look up any video we’d like to study or any place and see it in great detail, and in our convenience we’ve boiled down to only doing 3D animation (Though I still acknowledge the artistic talent and effort it takes, and I know sometimes some still travel to get inspiration) and I think maybe, going out of the way they did in order to see what they could find in person, doing it all by hand, it gives it a sort of charm new animation will never have. It’s better, in my opinion. It feels like these people really had something, they experienced the world in such a way that brought us some great movies, through raw talent and taking what they had in front of them and rolling with it. I have a lot of respect for old school animators.
I love drawing and the human anatomy, so watching this is extremely satisfying and inspiring me to draw again 😊
This is so deep! I love it so much ! I love that artists can experiment there life memories and put them into a movie it's just so heart warming ❤️❤️ I hope I can be like them one day !
Me too!
6:24 shhh, you hear that? My heart just broke
Imma wait till this comes in everyone's recommended cuz it is already in mine. Seems like this was previously recommended 6 years ago, there may be some pattern, we may be onto something.
Anyone got recommended by this on 2020 pandemic?
Look at those smooth physics of the animation!
No matter how good computer animation gets, it will never be able to get the emotion that hand drawn animation has.
Imagine getting this 14 years later.
Happy 2020
3D animation is cool, but there’s something so special about hand-drawn animation. Knowing every frame was drawn with so much care to detail. I think it’s one of the reasons older Disney movies still have so much charm.
14 YEARS AGO!!!!!!
2:04 that's cool how the artist studied basketball players to gauge how Tarzan should move
I am a 21 year old boy today and i saw this movie probably when i was 5 or 6, my existence in this world would have been void if had never seen Tarzan. Today @ 21 they just dont make 2D movies any more. I seriously wish i was born 20 years before 1998
Glen Keane & Phil Colins You'll be Here In my Heart......Always........
I would pay a pretty penny to watch all the Pencil Tests that make up Tarzan.
@cookedart: Thank you for sharing this. This video showed me how to draw more expressively.
this video is so lovly thanks for it.
𝓦𝓱𝓸 𝓲𝓼 𝔀𝓪𝓽𝓬𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓲𝓽 𝓲𝓷 2020 . 😀😀😀
OMG! WOW This is so *AMAZINGGG* and COOL and Intriguing! GAH I just *LOVE THIS*! I gotta say even though these animations are difficult I like this one much better BUT although some animations in 3d are quite impressive just like in HTTYD2 man that one was #AMAZING too xD I wanna learn to do that one day! :D
Wow I cant believe this was so long ago-
There's always been something about the way Tarzan's hair was drawn that's always caught my attention for some reason. Probably why my own characters have similar shaped long hairstyles in my art style today.
I'm surprised this video doesn't have millions of veiws......
This is true animation. Even animators like Don Bluth have cautioned that 3D animation is moving towards more and more realistic story telling, but the beauty behind traditional animation is the ability to exaggerate expression. I would like to see more balance between the animation styles than moving towards realism
Often times with all the media and new technology, it's easy to take the focus off what true value is. Walt Disney wasn't just a successful man, he was a man who wanted animation to be timeless. Cell and drawn animation in Disney films today might be a fading thing, but these works will never fade. And I think they should stick to it based on that realization.
Why tf is this even in my recommendation ? I'm not even born yet at that time 😂
I’ve watch Tarzan last week, I could feel so many emotions with this animation style, this is maybe one of the greatest master piece disney realised
The fact that this video was posted 14 years ago freaks me out.
Who’s getting this a decade later?
It amazes me how much work they put into this movie!
i think nobody can argue, that tarzan was probably the best animated film disney every came up with
I had the great honor to meet a former puncher who worked on Tarzan, it was so nice to talk about the movie with him :)
In my opinion, Tarzan is Glen Keane's masterpiece; this character is perfect.
„When you see that scene ..that’s not Tarzan looking at Jane, that’s me looking at you♥️“
omg now how beautiful is that?
Wow...this is legendary. Right now Google, UA-cam, and creative softwares make things easy for us.
We fail to acknowledge and appreciate how much work and study had been kept into traditional animation that dates back to 14 years and even more.
I'm in love with this process.
that soft you'll be in my heart background music is so moving
6:00 Is such a heartfelt moment. Added with the emotions shown in those eyes.
Good quality for 2006
Disney's Tarzan was my Very First Movie i ever Watched.
Damn, I keep forgetting how unbearably hot they made him.
why was this recommended to me 14 years later-
Beautiful and impressive. It's hard to imagine the talent behind it. Much respect for these artists!~
14 years later?
Anyone in October 2020?
Let's be honest... in reality, Tarzan would be crippled if he tried to stand up-right... having your knees bent like that for years... yeah... don't think you'll be able to walk
Hey I love this video also 2020 sucks
I wonder why would youtube recommend this to me after 14 years
Yeah me to
Why did I get this in my recommended, it's been 14 years
Wow this video is older than most of the fortnite community
*Welcome to another episode why is this in my recommendation*
This video:
Made 15 years ago
UA-cam in 2020:
*ITS TIME*
2006? That's way too old...
Fun fact : it was in your recommendation ;-)
One of the best Disney animations, definitely.
