Alasky. The mallet knocks stacks ofSinging Swords, which are featured later in the final duel. Roger Rabbit merchandise available to the public ranged from coffee mugs and t-shirts to expensive jewellery and jackets with character appliquйs. One rejected proposal was for an inflatable Jessica doll. Every frame was animated (24 frames per second) as opposed to the short cuts taken forTV animation which repeats frames so that drawings only change every 2nd or 4th frame; sometimes even less. All scenes were hand-drawn. There were no short cuts and no computer-assisted graphics. 82,080 frames (with multiple layers of animation) were hand-drawn for the film. Including concept and story sketches, Richard Williams estimates that a million drawings went into making Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Christopher Lloyd was previously seen in Back To The Future (1985) and on the TV series "Taxi." Born in Stamford, Connecticut, Christopher Lloyd explored his craft through New York stage work along with Meryl Streep and Christopher Walken. Director Milos Forman asked Lloyd to make his film debut in One Flew OverThe Cuckoo's Nest (1975). His later films included Mel Brooks' What Disney film was also infested by weasels? Although these weasels are unique to Roger Rabbit, they bear a suspicious resemblance to the slithery villains of the "Wind in the Willows" segment of The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (1949). There, a pack of weasels manage to overrun the Toad Hall estate. "The Sneezing Weasel" (Warner Bros. 1938, directed by Tex Avery) may be a distant cousin. The ingredients of"dip" - turpentine, acetone, and benzene - are all commonly used as paint thinners and solvents which of course would destroy cartoon characters painted on cels. Actor Lou Hirsch (voice of Adult Baby Herman) was spotted in the TV mini- series "London Embassy" (1987) and the movies Superman III (1983) and Haunted Honeymoon (1986). In the book that inspired the movie, Baby Herman is 33. Here, he is 50. The comic strip characters of the book were changed to cartoon stars to be more cinematic. For character design, artists looked at dozens of vintage magazine ads of the 1940s showing babies, as well as the "Baby Weems" sequence of The Reluctant Dragon (1941). 326 animators and support staff worked on the film; 254 in London for more than a year and 72 in Los Angeles for eight months. Roger Rabbit slightly resembles a very early Walt Disney character, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. Both are white rabbits who walk upright and wear overalls. Early on, Animation Director Williams analysed the design of Roger as having a Tex Avery neck and a Disney body with the lower face in the style of Warner Bros. characters. Richard Williams on Roger; "With the red overalls, white body, and blue bow tie, he became like an American flag." As a youngster, Richard Williams was knocked out by Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), saying, "I was fascinated by the fact that cartoons could appear to walk and talk and even think." That experience started his animation career. Notice how the camera moves throughout the movie. This made animation extremely difficult but added to the dimensional look of the Toons. Roger does a take-off of square-jawed, comic strip detective Dick Tracy. Animation Director Richard Williams filmed Charles Fleischer saying "P-P-Pleeeese" as a guide for animating the movement of Roger's mouth. As with all the live-action/ animated scenes, Roger Rabbit was added months later. Hoskins was up to the challenge of acting alone, but considered this scene the hardest one to do. To prepare for scenes like this, Hoskins studied his three-year-old daughter with her imaginary playmates. Richard Williams and Robert Zemeckis agreed there could be no cost cutting that could spoil the illusion. All animation would be hand drawn for each frame of film (24 frames equal one ------------------------------ Читайте также: - текст Хупер на английском - текст Иллюзия убийства 2 на английском - текст Мой друг Иван Лапшин на английском - текст Том Джонс на английском - текст Зеркальце на английском |
