Disney’s Classic Animated Films and Rotoscoping

While Disney has made some of the most popular animated features of all time, they had the good sense to use the most advanced animation technology available at that time - rotoscoping. Rotoscoping is a technique in which animators trace over footage, frame by frame, for use in live-action and animated films. The recorded live-action film images were projected onto a frosted glass panel and re-drawn by an animator. This projection equipment is called a rotoscope, although this device was eventually replaced by computers. It is the vintage predecessor to the computer simulation techniques James Cameron used for his Avatar characters.

Creative Mom Turns Kids Drawings into Plush Toys

It all started with the simple idea of making a recognizable comfort toy for a 4 year-old boy based on his drawing. Since then, the idea has exploded for one very creative mother who has turned this wonderful idea into a thriving home-based craft business. Child’s Own Studio has since created hundreds of toys for kids around the globe based on their drawings.

It’s a beautiful realization of a child’s imagination and each one is handcrafted and one-of-a-kind. You can see the entire gallery of Child’s Own work on their frequently updated Flickr page and of course you can visit the official site for any purchase inquiries.

Below you will find a small collection of delightful finished toys based on children’s drawings, enjoy!
