Toy Story Or Lion King
How is it that you make a decision between two cartoons about which is better? Some say that you should judge them by which of the cartoons has the best plot, others say to decide on how well the characters relate to humans? I however did neither of these, I decided by the amount small details the artists put in to the film. I divided the details in to three different categories: background & foreground detail, character detail, and natural elements. The movie "The Lion King" had excellent backgrounds and foregrounds. At the beginning of the movie there is a brilliant sunrise, this sunrise showed an extremely high-quality background. It slowly transfers from a dark blue, through a variety of mauves & violets, to a bright sky blue. The artists also show amazing foreground details by showing every individual blade of grass on a fast running scene. The artists also achieve multiple layered sequences by having intense details on the front of the picture, at the beginning of a scene, and then slowly moving the detail to the back at the end of the scene (e.g. Simba and Nala are in the elephant graveyard, as they leave the artists soften detail on them and then focus detail on the uncle at the top of the screen. Before the artists did
However, the artists did capture the wind blowing in the trees especially well. Animating cartoons is a very difficult and times taking process, whether this be doing it by hand or by computer. They then follow that up by showing you all of the very small bumps on the plastic Mr. The animators also capture the natural way mirrors and lenses work through Woody looking at himself through a spoon, and by changing the way Woody looked through a magnifying glass. "Toy Story" does not achieve as great of detail in this category, however it does have a few good points. Then there are the plastic soldiers. So in the battle of these two movies "The Lion King" & "Toy Story", it is "Toy Story" that came out on top. You first see the vast character detail at the beginning of the film when it shows a close-up of Woody's head, you can see all of the seams and stitches on his felt hat. They showed the natural characteristics of the plastics reflect ability by placing light glares on the rounded parts of faces and objects (when applicable). They also showed a magnifying glasses property of concentrating light by burning a hole in Woody's head. The dust coming up from characters as they ran was not as accurate as it could have been. The artists show you the excess plastic left from the moulds (like real ones). There is also a lot of detail put into the water buffalo's hair, and when you pause the screen you can see each individual hair on them.
