Hello everybody. It's not really a "Tech" article today, it's all about animation. And this yooouuutuuube.com effect is pretty incredible as you will see. By the way, i didn't do any mistake when i typed the word, this web site is really called yooouuutuuube.com, and you will understand why in a minute.
Now, what's so magical with this yooouuutuuube.com? Well, yooouuutuuube.com is a web site that allows you to create an amazing frame-by-frame video wall display. And all you have to do is to enter the URL of your choice of a YouTube video and choose the pixel size that you wish for every image, and that's it! It takes less than one minute, it's totally free, and visually speaking the effect is awesome!
Really? Yes, really! Let's take as first example the brand new "Princess and the Frog" trailer. To have a look at the yooouuutuuube.com effect with it CLICK HERE and come back after, as there is more to see!
In my opinion the effect works great with animated films - like this editing of Alice in Wonderland with an electronic song on it. Click HERE to see it.
I did another try with the "You can fly" sequence from Peter Pan, but you have to wait that the song begin. Click HERE to see it.
It's also spectacular with music videos. Have a look at this one that i did for you using Britney Spears "Toxic" video clip. Click HERE to see it.
When i saw this amazing and-so-easy-to-do effect i thought that it should work well with a fireworks sequence. I found one of the new Tokyo Disneyland fireworks, and, bingo!, it looks great! (please note that the fireworks will begin after the first 15 seconds). Click HERE to see it.
By the way, the yooouuutuuube video effect never stops! which mean that you can use it as a wallpaper video for your computer if you wish. To stop, simply go back to the previous page.
Now, as i am sure that some of you would like to try with your own video choice, here is the link for the yooouuutuuube.com main page. Remember: all you have to do is to introduce a youtube url and to choose the pixels size of each image, and that's it! Very easy, and very spectacular!
If you're happy with your own creation, you can post the link in the comments, we will go to have a look at it! And of course let me know what you think of all this!
The highly awaited Princess and the Frog trailer is now on line and all I can say is...Oh my God!! It looks GORGEOUS!!! We are going to have a closer look at it but before, as there IS below a lot of spoilers about different scenes i strongly suggest you to watch the trailer below or in high-def on Apple Trailers, and come back on D&M after you've seen it as there is lot of stunning images below!
As we know, the Princess and the Frog is a fairy tale - based upon the book by E.D. Baker - centered on a young girl named Tiana who lives in New Orleans' French Quarter during the Jazz Age. As we saw before on the first teaser she happened to meet a frog...
The frog explain to her that "he" desperately needs a kiss from her to break the spell ...
As "he" was before a Prince - Prince Naveen - from the land of Maldonia...
We can see the prince arriving and acclaimed by the crowd...
Before being transformed into a frog by the evil scheming voodoo witch doctor Dr. Facilier.
For different reasons that i won't explained now if you haven't seen the trailer yet, Tiana and the frog must find the good voodoo priestess of the Bayou, Mama Odie...
While befriending with a trumpet-playing alligator...
...and a hopelessly romantic firefly along the way.
It looks like the help of Mama Odie will be a precious one...
And, although some of the trailer images shows a happy ending (what a surprise!)...
...there is ONE thing that i won't tell you - specially if you haven't watch the trailer yet, it's what is happening when Tiana finally agrees to kiss the frog...
You have to see the trailer first to discover it!
The trailer also introduce new characters like these musicians of a street Jazz band...
And the early life of Tiana while she was a waitress.
Some other scenes shows gorgeous backdrop like this night scene with the river boat...
...or sophisticated decors like this "fairy tale" bedroom
Graphically speaking Disney animators did outstanding stylisation and colours on the voodoo scenes...
After watching this trailer i can tell you that i have absolutely no doubts that The Princess and the Frog - directed by the highly talented John Musker and Ron Clements - will be a major Disney animated film! I just can't wait for November!
Some interesting good news were released on other web sites the last two days. Honor Hunter of Blue Sky Disney was the first to let us know about the new TDL Monsters Inc ride and Go Seek attraction web site...with new pictures like this one below...
The attraction is a big E-Ticket - probably the major WDI attraction this year - and is opening next month April 15! No need to say that we'll talk again about it.
On Screamscape, their usual good sources are talking about a Princess and the Frog restaurant supposedly to open at WDW. It should include "animatronic figures of some of the film’s characters, including a figure of “Louis” who is a Jazz singing alligator character who apparently does a lot of comedy bits in the film and also plays a trumpet". More about it HERE.
Then, do you remember my Star Tours 2 article two weeks ago? Well, Al Lutz has a GREAT update on Mice Age today, and you'll learn that Star Tours 2 is now schedule for a 2011 opening at Disneyland. And the show will include a guest "facial recognition" new special effect! Al is also giving a lot of news about the future of DCA and DL, so don't miss Al's update!
And tomorrow it will be my Disneyland Paris update, where you will learn all the good things that new palisades can mean. Below, the brand new "Playhouse Disney" entrance sign.
Last week, the Walt Disney Company's 2008 Annual Report was released and inside - actually at the very end of it - was a treasure, this new Princess and the Frog artwork.
It's a beautiful one, and it will be even more beautiful when you will double-click on it to see it in big size.
Thanks to Honor Hunter of the excellent Blueskydisney website who was the first to let us know about it, we've learned that new art development images of the upcoming Disney animated "The Princess and the Frog" were released on the Walt Disney Animation Studios website.
Let's have a look to them, beginning also by the first teaser of the movie. You probably saw it already, but if you didn't, here it is below with some screen shots. Note that the firefly character appears, too, at the end os this teaser.
The new images, now, showing the Princess in her room...
The Frog in the "Bayou"...
But also other scenes like this one - probably in relation with the "villain" and a "voodoo" atmosphere...
The New-Orleans streets looks gorgeous...
I'm ready to bet that this one show the "home" of the villain...
The Mardi Gras parade in the streets of New-Orleans...
And this looks very much like a finale scene - but i can be wrong...
As we know, "The Princess and the Frog" will be the big return of Disney in the traditional 2D animation, and the film teams Ron Clements and John Musker, creators of “The Little Mermaid” and “Aladdin,” with Oscar®-winning composer Randy Newman to tell a love story with frogs, voodoo, and a singing alligator! I have a really good feeling with this one - but we have to wait until Christmas 2009 to enjoy the movie!
Now that Wall-E is released, let's have a look to the next animated movies coming from Disney and Pixar until 2011. Here is the program, with pictures and synopsis for each movie!
The first animated to be release - but on dvd - will be "TINKERBELL" , October 28 2008 DisneyToon Studios Director: Bradley Raymond Producer: Jeannine Roussel
Synopsis: Enter the magical world of fairies and meet the enchanting creatures of Pixie Hollow, who “nurture nature” and bring about the change of the seasons. Changing the colors of the leaves, moving a sunbeam to melt snow, waking animals from their winter slumber, or giving a patch of sproutlings a sprinkle of water are all within the realm of these seasonal specialists. Tinker Bell thinks her fairy talent as a “tinker” isn’t as special or important as the other fairies’ talents. But when Tink tries to change who she is, she creates nothing but disaster! With encouragement from her friends Rosetta, Silvermist, Fawn and Iridessa, Tink learns the key to solving her problems lies in her unique tinker abilities…and discovers that when she’s true to herself, magical things can happen.
November 26th, 2008 is the date for BOLT's U.S Release Date and in Disney Digital 3-D! Walt Disney Animation Studios Directors: Chris Williams, Byron Howard Producer: Clark Spencer Voice Talent: John Travolta, Miley Cyrus, Susie Essman
Synopsis: For super-dog Bolt (voiced by John Travolta), every day is filled with adventure, danger and intrigue – at least until the cameras stop rolling. When the canine star of a hit TV show is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood soundstage to New York City, he begins his biggest adventure yet – a cross-country journey through the real world. Armed only with the delusions that all his amazing feats and powers are real, and with the help of two unlikely traveling companions – a jaded, abandoned housecat named Mittens (voiced by Susie Essman), and TV-obsessed hamster in a plastic ball named Rhino – Bolt discovers he doesn’t need superpowers to be a hero.
Here is the new BOLT trailer in HD quality
Next one , in May 2009 will be a Pixar production: "UP!" Pixar Animation Studios Director: Pete Docter Co-Director: Bob Peterson Producer: Jonas Rivera Writer: Bob Peterson Voice Talent: Ed Asner, Christopher Plummer, John Ratzenberger, Jordan Nagai
Synopsis: Carl Fredricksen spent his entire life dreaming of exploring the globe and experiencing life to its fullest. But at age 78, life seems to have passed him by, until a twist of fate (and a persistent 8-year old Wilderness Explorer named Russell) gives him a new lease on life. “Up” takes audiences on a thrilling journey where the unlikely pair encounter wild terrain, unexpected villains and jungle creatures.
Christmas 2009 will see the return of Disney traditional 2D animation with THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG Directors: John Musker, Ron Clements Producer: Peter Del Vecho Composer: Randy Newman Voice Talent: Anika Noni Rose, Keith David, Jenifer Lewis, John Goodman
Synopsis: A musical set in the greatest city of them all, New Orleans, “The Princess and the Frog” marks Disney’s return to the timeless art form of traditional animation. The film teams Ron Clements and John Musker, creators of “The Little Mermaid” and “Aladdin,” with Oscar®-winning composer Randy Newman to tell the most beautiful love story ever told…with frogs, voodoo, and a singing alligator.
You can have a look at the "frog" character in these storyboard pages
And here is the rendering of an insect, one of the characters - very probably a firefly
June 18th, 2010 is the big date for Pixar's TOY STORY 3 and in Disney Digital 3-D Director: Lee Unkrich Producer: Darla K. Anderson Writer: Michael Arndt Composer: Randy Newman Voice Talent: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Don Rickles, Wallace Shawn, Estelle Harris, John Ratzenberger, Ned Beatty
The creators of the beloved “Toy Story” films re-open the toy box and bring moviegoers back to the delightful world of Woody, Buzz and our favorite gang of toy characters in “Toy Story 3.” Lee Unkrich (co-director of “Toy Story 2” and “Finding Nemo”) directs this highly anticipated film, and Michael Arndt, the Academy Award®-winning screenwriter of “Little Miss Sunshine,” brings his unique talents and comedic sensibilities to the proceedings.
Synopsis ( Source: IMDB ) : Woody, Buzz, and the rest of their toy-box friends are dumped in a day-care center after their owner, Andy, departs for college. Meanwhile, Hamm, Rex and Mr. Potato Head begin a quest to find their long lost twin brothers. (NDR: Rumors also say that the characters will travel in Europe)
In Christmas 2010, the next Disney animated will be release: RAPUNZEL Walt Disney Animation Studios Directors: Glen Keane, Dean Wellins Producer: Roy Conli
Synopsis: In this new telling of the classic fairy tale, “Rapunzel,” audiences will be transported to a stunning CG fantasy world complete with the iconic tower, an evil witch, a gallant hero and, of course, the mysterious girl with the long golden tresses. Expect adventure, heart, humor, and hair…lots of hair, when Rapunzel unleashes her locks in theaters for the 2010 holiday.
Finally, in Christmas 2011 Pixar Animation Studios will release THE BEAR AND THE BOW Pixar Animation Studios Director: Brenda Chapman Producer: Katherine Sarafian Voice Talent: Reese Witherspoon, Billy Connolly, Emma Thompson
Synopsis: A rugged and mythic Scotland is the setting for Pixar’s action-adventure "The Bear and the Bow.” The impetuous, tangle-haired Merida, though a daughter of royalty, would prefer to make her mark as a great archer. A clash of wills with her mother compels Merida to make a reckless choice, which unleashes unintended peril on her father’s kingdom and her mother’s life. Merida struggles with the unpredictable forces of nature, magic and a dark, ancient curse to set things right. Director Brenda Chapman (“The Prince of Egypt,” “The Lion King”) and the storytelling wizards of Pixar conjure humor, fantasy and excitement in this rich Highland tale.
