Summary

Walt Disney pioneered the art of hand drawn animation, but it was really his top animators, “The Nine Old Men,” who were responsible for developing the art form. Andreas Deja, who animated Scar and Jafar, talks about being trained by The Nine Old Men and the pressure of living up to their legacy. John Canemaker explains why hand drawn feature animation is a lost art in Hollywood, and Jerry Beck sees a renaissance of 2D animation lurking beyond the “live action” Disney remakes.

In fact, I noticed that some of the critics said that the movie

0:43.2

actually made them miss the art of hand-drawn animation

0:47.2

because hyper-realistic computer animation of animals

does not leave much room for the characters to express themselves.
