Drawn to Animation was a show that was played at the Magic of Disney Animation located at Hollywood Studio, although I never attended the event, the premise of the show was very interesting. This show was created to show kids how Disney animators animate characters, with the narrator announcing the show, they use 2 videos to interact with the audience, one video is of an animator who draws, and a second video is of the Disney character Mushu who interacts with the narrator and the animator.
This is an interesting combination, as they've created a live show which has an animated character interacting with a live person on stage, this is similar to Gertie the Dinosaur (1914) where the animated dinosaur interacts with an actor. The reason I am inspired by this as it's cleaver, especially when the animator appears on the second screen, when the animator interacts with his light-box, it affects the video in which Mushu appears, later in the video Mushu jumps from one video to the next, in a similar fashion to how my animated character jumps from one piece of animation paper to the next.
The timing for this is perfect, between both the videos and the narrator, this is something I will need to work on, especially with the modern animated character and the traditional character. I hope I will be able to create something as fun as this.
