I think "watercolor" is code for "untextured" cause the animation looks like it's the preliminary style you see in the bonus features where the extra textures aren't rendered. In the first scene with her friends I was shocked cause they straight up looked like they were the Sofia the First TV show quality where they have a more plastic and low amount of detail on faces. Compare it to Tangled which came out years ago and it's crazy how less good Wish looks compared to Tangled.

It's crazy cuz you can still create amazing textures with watercolor paint. Just look at scientific plant paintings and you'll see. They should've gone for cell-shaded 3D models, or better yet, made the movie with 2D animation. No one wants their 2023 movie to look like the Octonauts.

@@karathewolfsfanficchannel933 Yes! Watercolour paintings of plants! I follow a few botanical watercolour painters, and it is amazing how they can just recreate the intricate details in their subjects. And on the other side of the spectrum with loose style watercolour paintings, they can imply so much more texture then you'd think possible! And don't forget about the late-2010 abstract watercolour backgrounds that seemed to be everywhere. The whole idea is that such a simple background gave texture to an otherwise plain image. This part is from my personal experience, but default watercolour paper- the paper meant for watercolours and that most students are recommended to practice on first, has TEXTURE! Go to any Walmart of Michaels and the paper almost always has a medium to rough texture!

I feel like the Disney execs went into Wish with a goal of "let's show everyone that all it takes to recreate Spiderverse is throwing the right filter over our default character design style!" and yep it didn't work, obviously. First, because a filter can't replace actual human brains that are trained to make deliberate design choices for evoking certain emotional responses. Second, because having a "default character design style" is what you do when you're planning out the next episode of a tv show, not a standalone independent project. Disney treats its animation department like a cinematic universe now, and they are sacrificing every bit of creativity because of this. They made Tangled and after that they were like "yep this is what our movies and our characters look like now, glad we got all that creativity crap out of the way for the rest of forever". It's sad because there are literally hundreds of thousands of talented young artists dying to work for Disney and bring new vision to the company, and Disney just has absolutely zero interest in anything that isn't a Tangled reskin.

I think this shows just how disconnected Disney higher ups are from everything they’re making right now. At this point the company is a lot like their before movie intro, banking on childhood memories and the fact that they are such a big juggernaut. But they’ve gotten too big, bought out too many companies to keep track of projects properly and they are spreading themselves too thin. They’re focused more on making money and making sequels and live actions that never live up to and even seem to ruin the memories of the originals they come from. Wish was a chance for them to change direction, it was gonna be 2D animated with a better story plot, better written characters, and a more classic, cohesive that would have actually been an homage to classic Disney but they decided to make it all the things that would have made it basic, it almost seems like a parody of a Disney film. They had a chance to make a great new Disney movie but they chose not to for whatever reason. I just wish they would stop doing what they’re doing and stop putting so much effort into trying to bleed dry and make franchises out of actual good movies they’ve made then rejecting golden opportunities like the original Direction of wish. Pixar has been killing it because they have given chances to creative people with different stories to tell, they even made a good pairing for the Toy Story movies with lightyear (It was a good fun movie fight me😂) With wish being the flop that it was and marvel being a mess right now I hope they start seeing that they need to change whatever game plan they have because I still wanna work for them for some reason and it would be nice if there wasn’t a high chance of any great projects would be shafted in favor of Toy Story 29

Lots of the earlier Disney animated films used watercolor backgrounds (Pinocchio is another one) - it's funny they mention Lilo and Stitch, because Chris Sanders (that film's director) intentionally had his artists use watercolors and has mentioned part of said decision was because Disney used to in their earliest works. Sleeping Beauty is definitely not one of them.

The more i think about it, the more Wish reminds me of Chicken Little. It came out after other studios started to experiment with new technologies, Dinsey tried to hop in and do the same but it was apparent that they didn't have enough experience with them to compete with the other studios. One example i noticed in Wish is during the song You're a Star, there is a short sequence halfway through where a turtle goes down a small waterfall. The water under the turtle bends in a very unnatural way. It looks like a blanket folding instead of a river flowing. Dinsey gave us Moana 7 years ago, it's not like they don't know how to animate water. It's clear that they were trying to make the movie look simpler and stylizied, but maybe because of the lack of experience, or maybe even a rushed development, it just looks poorly made and unfinished in some parts.

I honestly love the look of 3D looking like 2D. But from watching the trailers of Wish, I knew that if you couldn’t even properly distinguish or see the water colour influence they said the movie has. Then it was already a visual problem from the very beginning. They might as well have made the entire movie in hand drawn animation. Coupled with Rotoscoping even. Not only would have this been a great callback to the very first Disney animated material as being hand drawn. But it would have been so effective in really making everything look traditional. You can literally just copy the art style from those illustrated Disney books, but make them animated too.

I’m convinced that the watercolor excuse is a lie, and they were trying to copy the Nimona art style. Because during the night scenes, it looks a lot like a slightly more pastel version of the Nimona art style. But during the day scenes it looks like an unrendeded pastel version of the Nimona art style. So… I think they were lying. I think they copied the art style of a movie they almost got cancelled and then didn’t give their animators enough time to animate that incredibly complex art style. Because I think Nimona took like…7 years to animate, not including the time they were shut down. Wish took 5. They just didn’t have enough time to animate it, and I feel really bad for the artists who I bet did want to do a new style, and I’m sure a decent amount of them at least enjoyed looking at the Nimona art style a little bit, but they didn’t actually get the time they needed to animate it properly.

(note: my capslock is for emphasis, I'm not yelling) not defending WISH but the old Disney backgrounds ARE watercolor just utilizes different ART STYLES. Waterclors look different depending on the type of paint (ie ink vs gouache), the style, the technique, brush size, brush hape, wet on wet, wet on dry, the paper ect ect. I'm not 100% sure what watercolors or tools Disney used for their BGs they probs had different kinds (ie the ones you see in older anime use something called Gouache) but watercolors can fast dry compared to acryllic which Disney needed for their schedules. however youre somewhat right, the ANIMATION as in the moving objects like characters, do not use watercolor, theyre done with some sort of ACRYLIC paint. Watercolor on the plastic cells would not cooperate properly obviously. The animation starts on pencil, as you showcased via pencil tests. then traced with black or colored acrylics, then fully painted with more acrillyic (and other painting mediums old school Disney was chock full of EXPIRMENTATION.) however the outline process was then replaced by the XEROX in the 70s, after Sleeping Beauty bombed. which Im not entirely sure what the outlines are made of. A type of graphite if i recall but I don't have a source on that so take it with a grain. They talk about the different artstyles seen in a few Disney backgrounds in Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston's book: The Illusion Of Life. A good read that throws Wish's artistic thought process (or lack there of) out the window and clearly shows the executives like Ms Lee and Bob Igor working on WISH have NO IDEA what makes Disney, Disney and what makes art, Art. WISH's animation is also a totally different issue imo its animated so weird its almost grotesque. too much squash and stretch compared to the more solid animation seen in the classic disney films the WISH staff are supposedly taking inspiration from (as in the silver and golden age of disney like Sleeping Beauty, not the 80s Renaissance, which imo WISH is copying). Ie Asha's mouth seem to just float all over her face whenever she makes a extreme expression, or one of Magnifeco's shocked exprsssion you showed here his mouth overtakes his entire JAWLINE. like its almost too squishy and stretchy. Its functional animation, it does its job but there's definitely something uncanny about it that no other 3D animation had issue with (yes inckduing the more cartoony stuff like the Incredibles or Hotel Transylvania). This overtly squishy animation can be an issue in 2D as well so it's not due to medium differencesfor those wondering. What you're describing for WISH's watercolor look is its ARTSTYLE not its ANIMATION. There's overlap but theres definitely a difference and no one talks about the actual animation which I have actual issues with...

I just re-read it, it seems they used something called TEMPERA. as well as watercolors cus they can be switched out if necessary. there's more to background design in Disney, and again its all expirementation, other mediums were possibly used besides watercolor. but the book claims Sleeping Beauty does indeed use watercolors or something like it. Chapter 10, Pages 246-249 talks about it, as well as the entire section on Backgrounds showcases the various styles seen in the films, but the end of the day they were all or mostly watercolors. This was all done to try to mimic the styles and multi-mediums found within the concept artists works, known as stylists, who had more varying medium usage such as chaulk, ink, pencil, oil crayon, oil paint ect ect. Watercolors in general are just as versatile as any other paint. it just all depends on the user and their skill and vibe theyre trying to achieve. there's also the effects department, talked about in a section after the Background artists. they probably play a role in how Backgrounds work too. they're sort of animators and background artists simultaneously depending on the shot. tldr Silver Age and Golden Age Disney (prior to the 80s so the Little Mermaid does not count here, thats Renaissance) was FULL OF expirementation of traditional media. Renaissance, including the Little Mermaid, began expirementation with 3D and digital coloring.

@@Dargonhuman as for CGI reliance I don't think that's an issue either, theres some pretty good 3D animation out there that is just as good as 2D without needing to mimic 2D at all (and of course the ones who do are also good! CG is a tool: 3D can look like cel shaded 2D, so relying on it I don't think is the problem) The whole point of animation is 3D motion in a 2D space. and even 3DCG still needs to follow the 12 Principles that originated from 2D animation. the *animation* is the issue for me, which has somewhat bothered me since the Renaissance era. I love them for sure, but not so much as I do the Silver Age stuff, the work of 9 Old Men just feels more solid to me compared to the Renaissance. I feel Wish is just an extremely worse case of like... Glen Keane's squashy and squishy animation style? Which is iroinc 'cus the whole gimmick was _Classic_ era Disney. The Renaissance is Classic in it's own right but the term itself refers to the Silver Age movies. Even the movies Wish were "inspired" by were also Silver Age (Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Pinnochio are what they mentioned), and yet the animation's character design and animation style (like _how_ they move) for the characters borrow heavy from Glen Keane who was _Renaissanc_ . Not to mention the BGs was so flat looking compared to the BGs of those eras and Wish's BGs were also 2D watercolor! It's one of the only 2D things that survived the Big Scrap during the movie's production. A 2D painting looked flat and wrong, that's just pure skill issue imo (or time constraints which is more likely). Like it looks worse than Tarzan 1992 who had a nice blend of digital 2D paintings on a 3D surface! (i forgot what the tool was called) Personally it's not a reliance on CG, there's nothing wrong with CG imo. it's Disney not being able to get over Glen Kean. He's amazing for sure and contributed to so much of Disney stuff but they can't get over him. And Frozen. EDIT: Fixed some typos and grammar.

They keep saying their inspiration was sleeping beauty’s “watercolor” backgrounds because they don’t want to explain how they tried to jack nimona’s style and failed after shutting down blue sky

It looks like Eyvind Earle was using Gauche to paint his backgrounds, which is often confused with watercolors.

I love that art style is really good, I just can seeing this concept animation is look just like mix of modern DreamWorks, old Disney fairy tale movies, Nimona (2023), Borderlands, Disney Junior, Spider-Verse movies, Enchanted (2007), Nintendo DS graphics, old 1930s-1990s watercolor-paiting 2D hand-drawn animation style to 3D, early 2000s Barbie movies, Tangled, Edmund Dulac, The Elder Scrolls IV, Lilo & Stitch, Sleeping Beauty, Eyvind Earl, and James Baxter.

As an artist... It is probably mix medium. Watercolor and Acrylic... I see what they were trying to go for. I enjoyed Wish as well as the art style. It looks like a story book with how the textures are laid out. But this is coming from an artist who's been doing this since 2014. I get it, Disney is not how it use to be and it does sadden me how much they've strayed from the traditional work. but times change and so do the methods and of course.. the people who run the Disney animation stuff, all change as well. That being said, Give respect to the animators and people who worked on wish regardless. It takes so much time, effort and mental energy for artists. Whether they are 3D or 2D artists. The story may not be that great, but it doesn't really have to be when its for little kids who aren't going to care.

The Wish backgrounds actually look nice, they just need more contrast. You can't just mimic a "watercolor style" because it had appealing results in the past, without recognizing what MADE it look appealing, so you can adapt.

Well to be fair, the paint used in the sleeping beauty (or commercial posters and illlustrations) is gouache, a water medium that is opaque. However, I totally aggree that the sleeping beauty art style is definetly not what I'm thinking of when I looking at the Wish art style...

Hello, artist here. Without further research, it looks like Earl was painted with gouache which is a milk based paint famous fie its ability to be reactivated with water. While it can be thinned to a "watercolor like" state they can also used opaque, unlike watercolor which is always transparent to some degree.

But here's the thing that seems confusing : classical watercolor or aquarelle technique leaving out the whites of the paper as form of highlight, having very soft gradient shadows and soft edges is a COMPLETE different look. I don't understand why they referenced the animation to watercolor style. Maybe they wanted to achieve gouache style (similar to sleeping beauty). Gouache though is not watercolor/aquarelle. Both are visionally completely different. Yes, they are used with water, but that's about the only similarity. Gouache has strong contrasts, looks more graphic, but definitely has shadows, the graduation of shadows is just very bold, but there are definitely a lot of strong gradient shadows. If gouache is the look they were striving to achieve then it doesn't make any sense to use very even lighting. So probably in order to achieve the effect they were going for (hand drawn 3d) they would have needed to have a clear concept and consistently pull through. Either bold shadows with strong outlines maybe a bit sketchy outlines or gradient very soft shadows with very soft and almost invisible edges.

Im an artist and I think wish’s art style looks really good. (I heard the writing was boring though so I haven’t watched the whole thing) The style does look a little like the traditional style with the outlines, they probably just misspoke about sleeping beauty being watercolor or meant it in a different way.

IDK, this just kinda feels like a gaffe based on "common knowledge" (i.e believing an incorrect assumption popularized by the mainstream, such as thinking that It's a Wonderful Life is a schmaltzy Christmas movie when it's a dark look into the life of a man that felt screwed over by life and only the last 20 or so minutes are actually set at Christmas) so it feels pointless to be upset about.

The lighting is also weird. They use a sort of a cel shading style. The unfortunate part is that cel shading is best effective under direct lighting. Sadly, there is a very... limited use of it for some reason, which has some of the shots looking so muddy or underlit.

@fadedyellowmm5814 ай бұрын
Hi! I agree with what you're saying but Eyevinde Earle 100% used watercolor--specifically a thick, opaque kind of watercolor paint called "gouache." It is a very versatile and rich kind of paint, as well as being actually quite forgiving and easy to manipulate because the pigment uses water as a medium rather than oil or other substances. Wish was terrible in many ways, and Earle's art was indeed amazing (if you want more cool midcentury disney paintings check out the work of Mary Blair!) but you should probably be more careful when talking about the processes used in these films. Goache IS watercolor!

it doesn't make sense on another level; in the art book of Tangled, they go into how that was exactly their goal, translating the visuals of old 2D films into 3D. Tangled is absolutely gorgeous and they already had that research and style figured out, so i dont know why they didn't use that for building the style.

this is proof that the higher ups not know what they’re talking about. It feels like more evidence that the higher ups really did stick their noses into production and messed things up, since they can’t even describe their own movie properly. I feel kinda bad cuz I’ve spoken to ppl who worked on the film. I wish the best for their upcoming films…

In all honesty, it's not the art style that I hated about Wish.... I actually LOVEd the character designs and seeing body-type diversity, not just skin color. I honestly hate the art style for the older Disney movies because they usually portray people as "ugly" who don't follow the beauty standards and all their villains look like zombies. It's purely the story of Wish that I hated, not the art style or animation. At first I found it kind of off-putting but I got used to it.
@redline19163 ай бұрын
It doesn't even take an animator or an artist to look at Wish and figure out everything wrong with it. The "villain" actually comes off as more of the good guy, so not only do you have horrible writing but you also have an art style and everything else that isn't even fucking consistent. Like holyshit y'all have millions of dollars in budget and you can't just make a decent film?

so it does make sense OP just didn't understand it and is using a press interview with a non-artist / non-technical executive that was conducted for marketing purposes rather than the design documents (which likely don't mention watercolor anywhere) the title should be "american executive does not understand their own product, gets huge bonus at end of each year anyways"
