Walt Disney Animation Studios Serves Up Hand-drawn Animation in The Princess and the Frog
Walt Disney Animation Studios Serves Up Hand-drawn Animation in The Princess and the Frog - CGW explores how leading-edge graphics techniques, including the 3D modeling, animation and visualization are used in such applications as CAD/CAM/CAE, architecture, scientific visualization, special effects, digital video, film, and interactive entertainment.
Walt Disney Animation Studios serves up a joyous gumbo of adventurous storytelling, captivating characters, offbeat comedy and memorable music in the all-new feature The Princess and the Frog, an animated comedy set in the great city of New Orleans. From the creators of The Little Mermaid and Aladdin comes a modern twist on a classic tale, featuring a beautiful girl named Tiana (Anika Noni Rose), a frog prince who desperately wants to be human again, and a fateful kiss that leads them both on a hilarious adventure through the mystical bayous of Louisiana. The Princess and the Frog marks the return to hand-drawn animation from the revered team of John Musker and Ron Clements, with music by Oscar-winning composer Randy Newman. In the January 2010 issue of Computer Graphics World, we take you behind the scenes for an in-depth look at how CG techniques and technologies were applied to create this new movie. Until then, we are offering you a look at the production notes of how this movie was crafted.
