Treasure Planet Scene Assignments
May. 29th, 2007 09:46 pmSo ... I was watching Treasure Planet today, trying to get back in the Amelia groove (results of which may be posted relatively shortly-ish), and noticed a couple interesting things:
1. I think Crazy Cartoony Animator Guy, who was on the Milo crew in Atlantis and who I suspect also did the scene where Jim is trying to coax Morph towards him when they're escaping the mutiny, also did a scene of Amelia in her office. I hadn't noticed it before but watching with the sound off puts the animation forward. It looked like he'd been told 'Now, you have to really pull back on this one,' but there's something crazy and cartoony just below the surface. I'm probably vastly overestimating my Name That Animator skills. It's the scene with the line 'Mr Arrow, please escort these two neophytes...' and it hooks up with the one before it which I'm almost entirely certain is a Ken Duncan scene so maybe it's just an anomaly, but ... the mouth ...
2. Who animated her when she's getting up after crash-landing on the planet's surface? Because WOW – holy draughtsmanship, Batman. That's the first scene in the movie where you get a downshot of her head (which is what I was looking for) and then when she stands up and brushes her hair back ... SOLID. It could be the cleanup person, but none of her other cleanup looks like that, and I don't think it's Ken Duncan because the mouth shapes were wrong and it's not his flavour of line. It might be live action reference but if it is, it's very well disguised. I wonder if Sergio Pablos did it ... I want to believe ...
I suspect today's icon is going to get a lot more use in the coming months. Just a hunch.
Oh, and in case I forgot to post this back when I found it (or even if I did, it's worth a rewatch)... best dialogue animation ever:
