I have always loved the weight and volume of both Koda's mother and Tug, and I could sit here and watch these reels again and again and again. Absolutely beautiful animation. Thank you for posting these!
I like the characters designs, they play on that line of, they're still animals and act like animals, but they're also stylized so they are believable childrens' story characters and you see the personality and humor in them. Overall, it's good animation, cheers buddy.
Lovely animation. I've always loved Disney's animations, ever since I was a child; watching Aladdin and The Lion King. So magical and whimsical. And Brother Bear was a truly fantastic film.
And finally, it's all subjective anyway, you think this is too realistic, someone else might think it's too cartoony, and another person thinks that anything that is literal or figurative is a waste of animation, considering that you can do ANYTHING you can imagine in animation and there are no limits.
In the end, if you have a choice, do what makes you happy and what makes you grow and leave the supposed-to's for the teachers and critics.
Many people feel that if there is nothing "magical" or fantastical in the story, there is no reason to do it in animation, and it's a valid point,,, but, first of all, the animation here, is paid work, and as professional animators, we do what we are asked to.
Secondly, animation in theory is not SUPPOSED to do anything, when it's not business it's art, and art can be whatever it wants to be.
Nothing personal, and congrats on knowing how to animate AND draw realisticly, but what's the point to realistic animation?
Better question, whats the point to "designing" realisticly and THEN animating it realisticly?
I can see the talent in designing and animating this way, but where's the "fun" in it? I thought animation was supposed to "expand" your imagination, not simply copy life.
@Leroy629 It probably was, because in the beginning Kenai thinks "the bear" is just that a bear. That it's incapable of love, or emotion, a thing that killed his brother. In the end, he knows better and he can suddenly see the personality and understand them. But... that's just what I think

Just my thoughts. Good craftsmanship though.

So you're the famous animator of those two; were you the supervising animator?
I always wondered was intentional to make Koda's Mom eyes darker and then make them appear more bright at the end of the movie?
