I just mean the general roundness/volumetricness of the character and using linear perspective and the bgs remind me of Lilo and Stitch.

Mulan is one of Disney’s best-designed films. For that, you can thank Chen-Yi Chang. He was the character designer, and he put an amazing amount of care and research into his work. It lifted the whole team, as we explore: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-charac...

Aurelius Battaglia (1910-1984) - fantastic illustrator of children's books throughout the midcentury era - worked at Disney in the 40s and UPA in the 50s. One of my favorite inspirations of that time. #wardsmorguefile

Actually witch hat has a much lower budget. I think it has more to do with salaries, taste and skill level.

Nielsen argues that anime fans are more than an audience; fandom in anime is a behavior. It's highly engaged across streaming, gaming, merch, and social platforms. They act more like a lifestyle community than passive viewers. www.cartoonbrew.com/anime/nielse...
