Subtle Multiplane Camera



What’s a retelling of Cinderella without a scene featuring the lead character arriving at the ball and the Prince taking notice? In this scene, we again use a multiplane camera technique to create a subtle, yet slightly 3D effect of the chandeliers passing by.

Another simple, yet effective technique used in the scene was the flipping of Crawford's animation over, re-coloring it, and letting it serve as a reflection on the floor. Both of these effects and the rest of the eye-candy was created by G. Brian Reynolds. Nice work, Brian.

  1. Have you guys ever considered using 3d for some of the Multiplane effects?

  2. Not yet. So far we haven't had a show where a mix of 2D and 3D would serve the production best. But one never knows about the future. Thanks for the comment.
