- I'm almost finished with Christopher Finch's The Art of Walt Disney now, and although quite fascinating, it only hints at Disney's creativity and the process they were following as they made the films. In this book, as well as in other places, I've seen him being regarded as a master planner. Now, I'm sure he was a control freak, but the work on the movies was shared between his animators, and to me they seem to have had quite much freedom after all. The work seems to have been structured around a core consisting of Disney himself, and a handful of people that were responsible for the music, the visuals, and so on. The entire machinery was no doubt coordinated using very high volumes of face-to-face communication, model sheets (guidelines for how to draw the specific characters), and written guidelines describing the mood or tone that should characterize the movie in production. |
