Walt Disney stated: “I definitely feel that we cannot do the fantastic things based on the real, unless we first know the real."
This is very important to understand, and well stated. Walt Disney sought to improve the level of his animators by hiring instructors, and some animators took this process into their own hands; one got a camera and was better able to study motion frame by frame. This is very important and rings true to the above quote, the animators could not create fantastic things based on their minds alone, they first needed to study models, photographs, and things from life and develop a firm understanding to create believable animations and characters for audiences to relate to and to understand. Walt Disney understood this, and it applies to the principles of animation in every way.
