"Disney Animated" - Must-Have for Animation Fans - Blu-ray Forum

Ernest Rister · 08-14-2013, 01:59 PM

There is a stunning new app out there called "Disney Animated". It's not cheap, as far as apps go ($13.99)...but what if I told you it contained the entire third chapter of Thomas and Johnston's ILLUSION OF LIFE ("The 12 Principles of Animation") -- and where that industry bible was limited to still frames, the app allows you to see the still frames and then see them in motion. It's a college-level course in hand-drawn animation, presented in a way never before possible outside of a classroom with access to the Disney archives.

And what if I then told you that's just a fraction of what the app contains...like a timeline of all the films replete with film clips and official trailers for each. Art Galleries. Rough animation. Studies on layouts. Multiplane demonstrations. Music. Character. It's the coolest look at Disney history and animation history that I've seen since getting my hands on Disney animation history books in the 80's. Can't recommend it more highly.

Wow! This seems really neat. Found an official trailer for it.

Hope it reaches Android as well as that's what I'm using as I would love to get this. Would be a pity if they restrict it for just iOS use.

I saw it on my Ipad apps store, just too expensive for what is really worth for me

I think at $5 it would sell like crazy. As it is it's just too expensive for an app. Leave it to Disney to charge crazy prices.

This app was demoed at the D23 Expo on Sunday. It does look like it has a ton of information in it.

Gotta have it ... wait, no iPad.

Seems pretty dang cool. I love this kind of stuff. I would most likely buy it if I had an iPad

I had purchased it, the motion pictures are really good but it should be more cheaper in price. Like if it would be of 6$ the public would have gone crazy to buy it.
