Tangled — Disney’s 50th animated feature — opens Thanksgiving weekend, November 24th. Back in February, Slashfilm had details about the visual approach.
Previous director Glen Keane developed a new look for this computer animated film, which is said to look and feel more like a traditional hand-drawn Disney Classic, but in 3D. Apparently the film uses a non-photorealistic rendering technique which will make the surface look like it is painted but still containing depth and dimensions. The movie’s visual style is being based on French Rococo artist Jean-Honore Fragonard’s painting “The Swing”.
A few lovely frames via ScreenRant and RopeofSilicon are worth a thousand words. More after the cut.
