“Though Snow White might triumph in the tale, she will undoubtedly acquire a mirror after she marries, matures, and has children, and as the mirror reflects her aging and loss of beauty, she will be confronted by a young girl whose innocence and youth will spark her envy and hatred and perhaps drive her to eliminate her “competition.” It appears as though there is a vicious cycle that entraps women up through today. Everything is played out under the male gaze.” ChildrenMightTodayYoungGirlLossWhiteYouthHatredMirrorsCompetitionAgingMalesEnvyTalesSnowInnocenceTriumphAcquireCyclesSparksViciousSnow WhiteVicious Cycles Book:The Enchanted Screen: The Unknown History of Fairy-Tale Films Source: The Enchanted Screen: The Unknown History of Fairy-Tale Films
“The [character] that I was able to crawl into the most was Lilo from Lilo & Stitch. This was sort of a cartoony-looking girl, but her problems were completely real. Her funky world that she createdI mean, you know kids like that. It was very honest and genuine and I wanted to do an honest job, so I thought about the character a lot before I animated it. I really got into the character, where [I] almost felt that pain that she had. The loss of the parents - you need to feel all that. That was a big learning experience for me.” KnowsWorldNeedsFeelsMeanRealCharacterProblemBigsKidsAbleWantedPainJobsGirlFeltParentLossHonestGenuineAnimatedLearning ExperienceStitchesFunky Author:Andreas Deja
