Tigger Animation

Animation is about timing, spacing, and acting. There is more involved but these are key components.
Ask yourself: What is the Character thinking?

Eye for Design

This is a Mark Davis drawing...according to the Animation Michaelangelo tribute, him and Mark were close friends. He took Mark's ideas for Bambi, and further developed them.

Bambi further developed.

Milt was one of the reasons some of the characters look the way they do in a Disney feature.He made Pinocchio look more like a boy.

Inspiration for many

Today's top Directors and Animators talk about Milt.
Including Brad Bird, Andreas Deja, Glenn Keane, Don Hahn,John Pomeroy (it looks like), Ron and John(Ron Clements and John Musker), and Mark Henn(I think thats him).
On a side note, I wonder if in the future Disney will pick new 9 old men? just food for thought.
