We can see Bambi and his mother in the opening scene of "Beauty and the Beast" (they can be seen in "The Rescuers" too("Someone's Waiting to Love You"sequence), along with a mother bird and her little ones from "Little April Shower"). Walt Disney's mother, Flora Call, died in a big fire in the last 30s, I can't separate this tragic event from Bambi's mother death. It is significant that the very same character comes back in the last film supervised by Walt, managing to save herself this time. This is a fact that has always intrigued me.Andrea Giglio 82https://www.blogger.com/profile/07863372756464138357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565467389318493488.post-65686908156023967732012-02-10T23:54:34.298-08:002012-02-10T23:54:34.298-08:00Thank you for taking the time to put this together...Thank you for taking the time to put this together, Andreas.

I became a great fan of yours by watching you and other Disney animators in DVDs, and I just saw Beauty and the Beast today at the cinema (Gaston dancing with Lefou is totally awsome) and wanted so much to say THANK YOU! Thank you all Disney artists for such great YEARS of passioned drawings. Hope some day I can visit the Disney studios and see personally some original drawings that never left my head for the past twenty years at least (I'm almost 25 at this moment).

Scar is one of my favorite villians and the Lion King is one of my favorite cartoon.<br />I'm an 18 years old art student and i would like become character designer / animator later for animation. I'm studying animals at zoo, studying nudes and persons at parks and draw from imagination. <br /><br />According to you what are the best exercices ? The most important to know in character design, what are required skills and the working type in portfolio to present to hope to be hired at an animation school and have you books and reference artists to recommend to me ?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565467389318493488.post-91562424819390974022012-02-07T10:23:05.369-08:002012-02-07T10:23:05.369-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2565467389318493488.post-83866271737924629522012-02-07T06:37:12.562-08:002012-02-07T06:37:12.562-08:00Amazing stuff.
