Fraidy Cat had some BRILLIANT concept artwork, there's tons of work floating around, a lot of it comes from Hans Bacher. It was one of the projects I was really looking forward to, as it was VERY Disney but also very un-Disney. In my mind I compared it to a movie like 101 Dalmations or Aristocats bu...

Ladies and Gents, we have confirmation from the horses mouth himself, Peter Del Vecho (Producer of The Princess and the Frog), the next handdrawn animated feature film in production at Disney now is "Snow Queen" and Ron and John are starting production on another 2D project in the spring o...

I sent a twitter reply to twitter account WaltDisneyAnim about when they thought the Rapunzel trailer would be coming out, and got this reply: Good things come... ;) It will be a little while. So I guess we can rule out a Rapunzel trailer for the next couple of months. I hope we'll get some new artw...

Zachary Levi, voice of Flynn Ryder about Rapunzel in a recent interview: What sort of voice are you doing for Disney’s Rapunzel? Zachary: My character is a bandit, named is Flynn Ryder. It’s funny because when I auditioned for the part, he was supposed to be British and I auditioned with a British a...

Oh, so there's news of another previously cancelled project apart from the Snow Queen being revived? :roll: And people wanting Don Quixote, they've tried that too. Here's a question for you all. If said stories couldn't be made into "Disney films" in the past, what makes you think they'll...

I'd love to see them pick up production on Don Quixote or Moby Dick and bring back the Brizzi Brothers. I mean, just look at their work on The Firebird Suite, those guys are just oozing cinematic talent!!! I agree. Don Quixote would have been a great Disney movie. Seeing all the films based on Engl...

I guess Ramayana does sound interesting (I would have much rather preferred Aida), but I can already see people creating a lot of debate. This is a classic Hindu story, and I'm pretty sure Disney wouldn't do story word for word. For that reason I already see a lot of people getting mad at that... A...

Ramayana is a project that was in production a few years ago, but then got canceled and is now apparently back in production again. Here's a synopsis (more info on wikipedia) and also a piece of concept art by Hans Bacher: The Ramayana is an ancient Sanskrit epic. It is attributed to the Hindu sage ...

oh, here's an old piece of artwork by Marc Davis for an attraction in Disneyland that was never made. I do like the style of this, and hope they dig this up from the archieve and use it as an inspiration for the new design. The white owl and ferret are also very cool!!! http://waltdatedworld.bravep...

I hope they axe the polar bear and penguin from the 2002 version and go with something a little less stereotypical (besides the fact that penguins in the southern hemisphere and polar bears on the northern hemisphere, so they'd never actually meet). http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/734/snowqueenji...

Where can I read the Dutch press interview with Alan Menken? He said it on dutch tv after an appearance at the dutch Musical Awards where he got a lifetime achievement award. Here's a direct quote from an italian newspaper interview for La Stampa from the 6th of may 2009: “ … I am preparing the sou...

Some updates, I read somewhere that "Snow Queen" is being develloped as a 2D movie. Alan Menken has confirmed in dutch press interviews that he is working on Rapunzel and will then work on Snow Queen, so he's actively working on the project again. He already did work for the movie back in ...

Not sure if this was posted already, but on the official website they opened a section called "Art Of" where you can view pages upon pages of pre-production artwork, both for the settings and character designs. It's really cool. Check it out here: http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/prince...

that is not actual concept art from the movie, as explained by the artist who made that piece, Ben Balistreri on his blog: These Aida designs have been surfacing around as development art for a scraped Disney Feature production of Aida but it aint so. This was nothing more than a class assignment gi...

They also worked on Aida, after the Lion King. A project that later got abandoned but did result into the musical version with the music by Elton John and Tim Rice.

I'm loving this poster! LOADS of characters, all of them I think. Really cool:

If we are in the process of discussing fanmade artwork, I'd also like to share some of my own pieces. Again, this is fan art. I've been working on my own version of the story for years as a sort of pet project. I'm working on a new piece right now which I hope to finish over the weekend. Which is my...
