[@bmxchamp4]

This always blows my mind. I've been doing game development for the past 4 years, mainly programming them. I am completely self taught and have led small teams before, so in an effort to understand what it takes, I did everything from programming to animation and it just blows my mind how talented these animators are. I have seriously lost count of how many times I've watched Frozen, and the last few times I watched it I REALLY paid attention to the animation, especially facial expressions, eye contact, the tiniest things. I paid special attention to characters in scenes where the focus is clearly going to be anywhere else but on them, and the detail in their posture, facial expressions, eye movement etc. is exquisite. I will forever be in awe of these people.

[@nekif820]

+BBrown4 same here.

[@alphadck9047]

they are very detailed when it comes to animating characters face expression and gestures

[@wallo8786]

you are lucky if you can do that job for a living or if you love maybe. but me, I have been dreaming to be in animation industry since my 12th grade and now i am completely mess up with my graduation. If I were in any animation college I would have put my heart and soul and achieve something what I am worth of but now I don't know what I am doing. How did you came up to this level.

[@mani-gf9dm]

It takes alotttt of time to create animations and after watching the movie we just take a second and say "Waste of time / I don't like the movie" or stuff like that. It's not hard to make a animated movie :( these people who work hard, I just want to say "HATS OFF"

[@nicholaiexe]

Customers, friends, Family members, they think making a movie is as easy as clicking a single button

[@zachanikwano]

I mean the fact they work hard is commendable, but unfortunately it’s still possible to work hard on something and it still turns out bad. Inherently bad ideas, bad directing, poor framing, bad voice acting or music choice.... I mean just look at movies like Food Fight. Or any of the Cars sequels. Or the Good Dinosaur. A movie can have amazing aspects but still be an overall bad movie.

[@Victoria-so1in]

zachanikwano agreed!!

[@arizonacardinals94]

damn that looks ridiculously hard

[@carmineglitch]

You don't even know the half of it :l

[@StopMotionNeal]

I've been doing it for 2 years (For lawyers) and I honestly had no idea what I was getting myself into :|

[@hahacinema85]

just keyframes

[@rizwanmation8431]

I do 3d animation

[@idontknowanymore2707]

Can u not

[@WeddingxPeach97]

I have to pay close attention I wanna be an animator someday and hopefully work for Disney animation studios

[@WeddingxPeach97]

yeah me too this movie really had me and few different films

[@WeddingxPeach97]

oh my gosh i loved that game such a huge twist and her character design was amazing

[@choirfandomcookingrantsand496]

So do I

[@carmineglitch]

Too get into Disney now it's very competitive, unless you know someone. Disney looks for applicants that are fast, bright, flexible, and extremely professional when it comes to deadlines because most employees have sleepless nights.

[@WeddingxPeach97]

whoa thats intense

[@Tami24]

Wow I have so much respect for animators after watching that.

[@michelleayu8353]

Same hereee! It's a really hard job...

[@lenchanchan]

So do I.... they did an awesome job

[@paran315]

I find 3d animators amazing, not only do they have talent in art, but they also have to be good with computers and have knowledge of basic anatomy and how the body moves, etc. Just wow.

[@blendernoob64]

I love watching these behind the scenes of animation videos. Always extremely inspiring and gets me to animate!

[@minikuma]

Disney seriously needs to sell their 3d models!

[@marge9250]

Actually modelling a Disney character is much easier than doing other concepts that involves hard-surface and details. Get some reference pictures, then start sculpting! You can use a free program called Blender (it also has a sculpting feature) or (if you feel saucy) purchase Pixologic's ZBrush.

[@MrRobert422]

Disney uses Autodesk Maya to model and animate

[@iverex2989]

Margaret O'Loughlin what? Good characters are harder to make than hard surface.

[@JMNHCKY]

I think Olaf is great. I just saw the movie and wasn't expecting to like him but he is perfect.

[@leanndemetrius1408]

So much respect for people who put so much effort into these things

[@michelleayu8353]

Flawless..... it's a really hard work. It takes 3 years or more to make a 1 and half hours animation. This is the third reason i love disney. Respect!

[@coffeesticks_03]

Damn all that effort..I wonder how long animating the entire movie took. I can't help but feel bad that animators are so under appreciated!

[@letsgoparkhopping]

This isn't animation for the movie, it's for World of Color Winter Dreams (in California Adventure)…just in case anyone was confused. I personally love Olaf now that I have seen both Winter Dreams and the movie, I wasn't expecting to like him but he really is great.

[@anijahjohnson6053]

That must've taken like a year to complete

[@AngryAxew]

more like 4

[@kingofthekoopas8857]

Actually as an animator, this took about 9 months of animation. And almost 4 and a half years of story development.

[@pupsagaramcolony2774]

Actually, I love animated movies I thought they were animated with less effort and I thought it was easy but I never expect there will be lots of effort and hard work to bring out a single character. HATS OFF to all the Animators

[@charchar.5912]

I actually just saw Frozen today. Yeah, watching Frozen in March! I live in MN and there's still snow.

[@MiguelGarayStarty]

This movie in particular had a very chaotic production, they were behind schedule, they changed things and add things to the plot at the very last minute, people worked over hours, if was mayhem, but I did pay off.

[@funwithmypets7143]

You mean, they really draw every inch of it? That's so difficult! At keast now, we have technology computers and many other things, but in Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs (1930s) it was damn hard! The first animation movie (2D)! Wonder who got the idea and why of "creating" a movie. I salute that person!

[@janusclimaco5]

I love this movie than tangled and i hope it will have a Frozen 2

[@dbazang]

Well it happened

[@mayursarkale4046]

disney is a very nice animation studio

[@darkandlightplayzgamez16]

Oh my gosh they worked so damn hard on this I mean I can not even take the smallest time doing my homework or project and here they are worked for days,months or even YEARS oh my gosh love love the people who worked on this.

[@sandeepjs3372]

spinosaurus46 oh Where is the producer?? hey have in mind money is first thing you cant make animation movie without money

[@titanplays1713]

Sandeep Stark right were the director, storyboard artist, director of photography,were all of that

[@titanplays1713]

All of that is wrong on so many levels

[@annag8520]

I'm totally impressed!

[@VickyMCh.]

Congrats in the producters and in the actors of Frozen,the best animation movie with 2 oscars(I hope you get more!!!)!!!!

[@missywalker4938]

I love you Olaf!!😍😍

[@mikewang2631]

It turns out maya can do everything.

[@mhehehehi]

I hope there will be Frozen 2. Because I love this film so much especially Olaf!

[@thesecretreader]

It would be so cool to be the voice of a Disney character!

[@jointhefun2125]

Excellent job Disney ❤️❤️

[@beajaneb8]

Lawl when the woman who keeps talking its like nobody listening...Aaaawkward.Then she say Ahhh, you know.

[@jimmee72]

It's amazing how much effort it takes to make a virtual snowman.

[@Som3D]

Wish it was 1 hour long Nah not even an hour 10 hours long and I would watch the whole video this is so cool

[@zynyelyan2681]

Oh god i can't imagine that Olaf drawing -__-

[@janez63]

OMG frozen is the BEST movie ever! If they do a frozen2 I swear I'm gonna hurt someone because that would just ruin everything

[@MEETHOPEBEINGHOPE]

Jane Z well a new one has been made , it’s not as good as the 1 though

[@SoCalThemeParks55]

This was animation for World of Color winter dreams, I love the part where Olaf is out of his mind

[@nichalmahatara22]

how they make. MIND BLOWING

[@benhalo101]

can i know the software they using?? i want to try :3 and yeah animating its very hard

[@jennyoo9672]

That seems like alot of work!

[@kimchiabcdee]

Hey Olaf is one of the kids fave ;) super like him

[@keito-kun6618]

in what program are those controllers available??? blender? maya? 3dsmax???

[@leylaismayil4171]

In the original frozen movie, Olaf looks cute, but in this behind the scenes Olaf looks like some kind of solitary video game nerd.

[@chelseynicholas3895]

Olaf is adorable

[@jentonlarry3619]

Interesting, what program they used for animation?

[@kuroro_z]

disney have right now the best cgi artists in the world

[@erinliong]

So cool! I would love be acquainted to someone who does these things!

[@beenn15]

how about you learn how to do it...

[@hotpeterandre]

They have a lot of patience! I wouldn't be able to have that much patience!

[@Jo-db9eq]

u guys are amazing !

[@silkexxx3289]

so cool !!!

[@jayshi2329]

I see they use maya but what was the program on the other screen that they make the expression on the face?

[@everardoruesga9332]

What do they use to animate the 3D animate and is it for Mac or any

[@SomeRandomZing]

Maya, its a 3d animation software, but its a professional one and you have to buy it, has a free trial tho. There are some youtube tutorials on how to use it.

[@GreeenDaze11]

I'm going to college for graphic design and seeing this is absolutely amazing!

[@frozennightmare8372]

Well in a couple of years!i hope you will help me in making my movie Elsa's kids....!(:

[@220696xXx]

that was such a brainstorm..

[@ayazhanshagrayeva4803]

Yeah, I want the second part too))))

[@katrinyr05]

Gooosh I am never going to be mad at the fact that I need to pay for a movie again

[@fairymae123]

Gosh a lot of work!

[@nishrinalisa2254]

Watch this to chase my dream to be a successful animator!

[@EpicGamer25]

maya animation

[@kingofthekoopas8857]

I would recommend starting with softwares like Cinema 4D, then go and do something a bit more powerful (like MAYA) That’s what I did.

[@mohdshaheer6101]

do you know disney make high quality 3d model and to render a movie with this models it will took 14 years to render. to solve that problem they use supercomputer with 55000 cores which renders movie in one day!

[@wallo8786]

what is rendering? Is it the software that it makes a big deal. I seriously don't know what is mean by rendering but it sounds so important.

[@silentgaming7628]

wallo there are probaply 30 Frames in One second... imagine how many frames the whole movie has XD 1 frame probaply takes 1 hour or so to render so Rendering that with 1 pc would Take too Long ... thats why they use renderfarms.

[@muhammadrehan6717]

I hope I can be a director and open my own animation studios and be like disney very creative and good imagination in all their movies. I start love and want to be animator after watching frozen I and II that movie make me feel like motivate to be animator

[@tal2862]

Why is 3D animation so complicated??? it made my head hurt.... O.o

[@_SWAYZE]

Mykee Marbella its complicated in the beginning but after using softwares like maya after a while you start to understand how to do. It’s not complicated

[@kingofthekoopas8857]

Starting out is always a hassle. But overtime, you will feel like you can do it with your eyes closed 🙂.

[@Som3D]

@@kingofthekoopas8857 did you work on the film?

[@lubieanimowac2871]

Whats program you use? Blender??

[@FrancescoCasta]

Oh Jesus, that's fantastic. Is there anyone who knows the name of that software? I only know Google Blender but it is not that.

[@tomoziomo350]

Disney has their own software programmed especially for them.

[@tomoziomo350]

eventually, they use maya.

[@FrancescoCasta]

Thank you. Just discovered the price. Over the top!

[@FrancescoCasta]

Version with 30 days expiration date? By the way, Windows 8/7 Professional version is among sistem requirements. I do not have it. The actual price for Maya full version is around 5.000€. The LE light version is something less than 1.000€.

[@MrBernabn]

FrancescoCasta It's a professional tool, and for that you need a some what professional computer to support that, it's really heavy software.

[@maddienelson7453]

So cool

[@antonkonstantinov843]

I know it's been 2 months since your question. :) Animation studios like Pixar or WDAS mostly use Red Hat Enterprise Linux distribution for it's massive 10/13 year commercial support. Also Autodesk Maya officially (still possible to run on Ubuntu/something, but a bit harder) supports only RHEL and it's derivatives like Fedora.
