My Animation Appeal - Part 2


This is Part 2.

Check out Part 1 if you missed it.





In my Part 1 post I talked about my main animation appeal and I was mostly talking about my favorite animator, Rod Scribner.


I want to talk about another type of appeal and that is more or so Classic Disney animation, the best of them all.




My favorite animated scene is the Brer Fox and Brer Rabbit scenes.




These are smooth and expertly crafted, that has both drawn to me and is absolutely hilarious. 





Now if you may know, this scene is taken from the controversial, Song Of The South. 
I tried to watch that movie, but it kinda felt too unsettling. Something about the dark tones and drama doesn't feel comfortable to me.



But the animated bits were fun.




I genuinely love Brer Fox's voice, it sounds so soothing and easy to admire.

He's obviously supposed to be a southern type character, and it's appropriate. Didn't feel like he needed to be sounding different.






This is where the "It's just a drawing" thing really gets on my nerves, look at that stellar pose Brer Fox does here. Man, I love how this dude moves.





There is alot of talking throughout these scenes but at least it has some creative potential. At least they don't talk about something worthless.









I think Brer Rabbit is also a fantastic edition to this movie. I love some of his lines.





The best moments is when he is pleading for himself to not be thrown into the briar patch.







Speaking about The Briar Patch, this is one of the funniest moments in this movie.






I also like when it shows how sharp and dangerous it actually is. 








After that, we get the funniest line delivery by Brer Fox, saying "BRIAR PATCH!"

It's priceless. 









There are loads of Disney animated sequences I love like Ichabod and The Headless Horseman, Pinocchio skipping, or The Sorcerer Apprentice's but I think these scenes are outright underrated as heck.







I can understand why Disney banned the entirety of the movie, but why the animated bits? Man, 1946 was not an appreciated year for Disney nowadays. 





The entirety of Song Of The South's animated sequences need to be watched, like or dislike them. I absolutely adore these myself. 


The backgrounds as well are some of the best for these guys. 







If you want to know about what my appeal should be, it should not be A.I or one of these, even though this stuff was actually made by existing people.





 
Animation like An Optical Poem, can be so boring and repetitive for a while, it's just a bunch of flying shapes. 





If I ever had the chance to make an abstract, and visual experience for all of you, it would be how I like animation and art.


I don't like lifeless spheres and dimensional noise. So why should I make something so atrocious like that? I hope I don't meet with overly strict people telling me to make stuff like this.




The Dot and The Line if it was done by me.









Having a mouth on an object has always been a long-time secret interest of mine.





The dot could've had way more personality, but hey we can't all be winners.




I really like characters that have a unique and quirky look. The dot having an additional mouth reminds me of stuff like Annoying Orange.





The orange was one of my biggest influences on the YouTube platform for the past few years. Yeah, it's a bit of a weird statement.

I love the classic ones the most. The videos made in 2009-2011. 








I think the 30s-50s had the best animation in history. There was so much experimental visions went into the animators, there was so much timeless and simplicity that it can be watched by anyone more than the newer stuff.




I strive for animating in a more golden age approach.



These are some of my characters.
