(HD) Sleeping Beauty - Live Action: Princess Aurora's Movements

Disney's Sleeping Beauty (1959) is a masterpiece in animation, and Walt used real actors to give life to the characters of this movie. He used to make animation through live action since Snow White (1937) which was the first animated film ever.
Helene Stanley (who's performing Aurora) knows a lil' bit of ballet. She's supposedly acting the sequence 8 of the film, where Aurora dances and sings the medley Once Upon A Dream. You can see the animators drawing the character Aurora while focusing on Helene's movements. One of them, and my favorite animator is Mark Davis (at 0:13 ). Hope you enjoy it.

That's real darn impressive how quickly they're sketching.

The position, her simile, and dancing skills makes real Aurora
I wish she is still young and beautiful for Disney Land

The guy from 34-40 is Milt Kahl who was known for giving his characters very fluid and realistic movements.

I also had the dream to be an artist like Marc Davis. His characters are filled with soul. It's amazing!

Sleeping Beauty is based on the French fairy tale titled "La Belle Au Bois Dormant" by Charles Perrault.

@SimsLover2011 Walt Disney used actors to every human character since Snow White. Thanks for watching.

@SimsLover2011 lol Walt used her and Mary (Aurora's voice) as models to Aurora. :)

She's also the speaking voice for Cinderella, which I just learned today. I always thought it was Ilene Woods.
