WALT DISNEY STUDIO 101 Dalmatians (1960s) studio animation model sheet photostat on paper, dimensions: 11" x 14" Since the early 1930s the Disney Studio has produced model sheets of its animated characters and/or atmosphere and concept art for circulation among artists and animators working in production of an animated film. Before the 1970s they were reproduced by a photostatic or printing process. They were made when a character or setting was in development and to help animators maintain a consistent look to the character throughout the film. This photostat model sheet titled "Jasper from 101 Dalmatians Prod. 2110" was made at the Disney Studio in the 1960s after production 101 Dalmatians was completed. It is a good quality second-generation print made from a model sheet for reference and future use by artists at the studio.

This is an original photostat model sheet from the Walt Disney Studios production Sleeping Beauty (1959). This model sheet features Princess Aurora,Briar Rose and was created at the studio and used by animators during production to ensure consistent character design. The sheet measures 11" x 14" overall and is in very good condition with a vertical crease down the center of the sheet and minor edge wear.

One more post about characters from Cinderella. As I mentioned before, Milt Kahl designed and supervised the animation of the King. I didn't know until recently that this character as well as the Duke were voiced by the same actor, Luis Van Rooten. That's amazing to me since they both sound so differently, and in terms of acting one is mostly aggressive, the other one reactive. Just as amazing as Jim Cummings, who has been voicing Winnie the Pooh and Tigger for a while. Here are a few original drawings that show Milt's animation process. At first his rough pass, loose unfinished sketches in color pencil. The emotion and acting is explored at this stage. It's interesting to me that the character's pupils are not drawn in yet, this is somewhat typical for Milt's first pass. Eye direction is something very important even in this early stage of the process, I myself would need to indicate pupils here. But when Milt ties his drawings down in pencil, like the third image, pupils are very clearly and unmistakably placed in the eyes. More examples of Milt's tied down animation roughs. The Lackey's final design was set by Kahl as well. This first sheet though was drawn by a story artist (?), it shows a certain comedic type in rough form, but more refinement is necessary for animation. Milt of course used those ideas and in trying to plus the entertainment he emphasized the Lackey's overhanging upper lip and his oversized coat. Ollie Johnston made the character his own and animated him beautifully, as he is trying his best to fit the glass slipper on the ugly stepsisters.
