Disney used to base the characters or at least take heavy inspiration from their original VA's back in the day, they would even have the VA's do certain stuff to give real life references for the animators back in the day, as you can see with Kathryn Beaumont doing the movements for Alice. Back then, you could say the Disney characters were real, because essentially they were!

[@happybunnyntx]

It never ceases to amaze me how accurately they captured Alice's actress' mannerisms. Lady Tremaine too! I never knew they filmed the tea scene for reference. Seeing even just the stills shows how perfect she was for that role.

[@gameplayxtreme3389]

If I recall correctly, most of the tea scene was actually improvised. It's so cool to see

[@ColdWarShot]

Up until 1960 every scene was filmed out by principal cast members for references. This ended when the “Xerox era” began due to the financial failure of Sleeping Beauty and major budget cuts were made to the animation department. Instead, the animators shot reference films of themselves using hand held 16mm or 8mm film as needed. When The Little Mermaid was made, they brought back reference footage with Jodie Benson doing a lot of scene recreations.

[@_veronica_r]

It's not just for reference! They actually traced over the live action version frame by frame for a lot of movies! It was a very common practice back then called rotoscoping. A very fascinating and underappreciated lost art!

[@ColdWarShot]

@@_veronica_r The only film that used rotoscoping was Snow White. Disney hated rotoscoping and refused to allow his animators to do it. The films were not for rotoscoping use. Marc Davis explained it as cheating. He, Frank, Ollie, and Mitt have all discussed the issue of Rotoscoping and most had a distinct distain for the technique often citing the Max Fleischer cartoons’ heavy use of it.

[@ColdWarShot]

@@_veronica_r Also, one only has to watch the B rolls from the animation department to see that they weren’t rotoscoping. The Animator leads would pump out the rough sketches of their characters for every scene. They would hand these off to the tasked animation who would then trace these onto the cells. Once reviewed and approved, they would be “inked” with indelible ink and sent off to be colored.

This was delightful. As a longtime fan of classic Disney animation (a guy in his mid fifties) I thank you for your efforts. From the 1920s through the 1960s Walt Disney seemed to always have the best talent in his orbit, be it Peggy Lee or The Sherman Brothers or great veteran character actors or super sound effects creators.

What’s amazing is the voice actors look a lot like the characters they are playing! Walt looked a lot like Mickey and so on:)

[@yuantheblue]

That was magical! :) It was incredible to see actual footage of the filming, the sound effects, and the very sets themselves.

[@btsxskz7866]

Honestly this is magical to me and blows my mind. Also the artist drawing too, the way they come up with the characters is so cool.

2:44 is adorable, hilarious, iconic ❤️😂🙌

[@allys744]

This is incredible! I love seeing old videos of voice actors. Billy Bletcher’s blubbering performance had me in tears 🤣✋

[@shaldana]

I'm an oldie in grandmother years, and these movies were all so much loved when I was growing up. What a delight to see this! It choked me up a little bit. Thanks for this video!

[@candycover]

I would love to see them do a new movie like they did these old ones.

[@mystikwand6115]

It's amazing how much work was put into these movies. No wonder they are all masterpieces. Hard work definitely pays off. 👏

Fascinating to watch men and women voice the characters, but also drawing characters from live performances.

[@meenamark9624]

love the way the voices have expression . and good ol days of creating. Simply beautiful

Eleanor Audley also played Millicent Schuyler Potts on _The Beverly Hillbillies_ . She was brilliant.

[@bricknboxer]

I think she was one of the town ladies in "The Music Man" too. "One Grecian urn" and pose.....

[@brendazierden4295]

Such a great treasure to see this unique performances by all these very talented people

The legends never dies they lived forever in our hearts

[@Tay7WonderDog]

I knew Ed Wynn sounded familiar! He was also Uncle Albert in Mary Poppins! I didn't realize Peggy Lee did so much voice work for Lady and the Tramp! The Alice clips were neat to watch the voice actors doing the scenes along with the movie

[@Chapin-pc2kz]

*Peggy Lee* also co-wrote with *Sonny Burke* all of the songs for the film.

Beautiful memories. Growing up in the 70's I remember the fairy tales and everything. So much genuine sweetness and a moral in there somewhere. Thanks for the upload.

[@ishikawagoemon4397]

It's these people that gave us all the best childhood of our life. I thank them all!

[@jesuismelode]

Anyone feeling like all those woodland creatures as Cinderella sang? So dreamy and pure.

[@Hinatachan360]

The Foley artists were amazing!

[@SorceressRose]

With how Disney used VA's for real life references as well for animation, the older movies had so much life put into them due to it. Eleanor Audley was basically the real life Lady Tremaine/Maleficent, Kathryn Beaumont as the real life Alice, etc. This is essentially lost when they went 3D animation sadly.

[@Silent_Soliloquies]

Katherine Beaumont also voiced Wendy from Peter Pan! 🥹

[@hiena_rec]

Rango was filmed this way, althought is a cgi movie.

[@ravenautry4958]

Cinderella will forever be my favorite. Her voice is just so soothing

[@Red_Rebel]

Walt Disney was so talented and so is these many legends ❤
