Pictures and information about animation problems in Balto 1

wolf_girl_772 :



While watching Balto 1, I noticed a few animation problems that I thought would be worth pointing out.

The first mistake was in the scene when Balto and Boris are standing on the fence, and Balto is getting ready to race with the other huskies. Boris sits on a windowsill and swallows what he thinks is a potato chip. He then realizes that it was a soap flake. When he spits it out, his eyes open real wide, and I noticed that he didn't have any pupils! This might have been done as effect...tell me what you think!

Yes, I noticed that not many new articles have come out lately. I am going to try to continue writing them when I get the chance. Thanks for the nice comments, everyone!

I noticed the one with Balto's ears during the movie but the others only last for a fraction of a second, one or two frames only and are only really noticeable in screenshots.

Boris no pupils...I know. Its so funny!!!

Two things: a) Fantastic findings! b) Why did everybody critisize me way too much when I did an article like this?! I'm not blaming it on you wolf_girl_722, I just see it's unfair that people are treated differently. Anyway, fab job!

People criticized you? That's funny because I read your article and I thought it was great! Maybe it was just the people who responded, or maybe the time you posted it? Anyway, I thought it was great, gemmawolf!

If you look closely at Steele you'll see the underside of the bandanna is white, and the side most of which we can't see is red. Nevertheless, this is indeed a flaw.

Here's another one: http://baltosource.timduru.org/img/gallerie1/73.jpg His beak line disappears!

I have not noticed any animation errors whenever I watch the film. I think if it's not too noticeable, you shouldn't care about it...

Wow! I never noticed that part where his beak line disappears. Good eye

Wow awesome article! You have any eye that is great. There some where in the movie where I caught something but I can't remember right now. Oh yea I know what it is! When Star sneezes the first time as soon as he sneezes, someone else said something like a person not a human it kinda sounds like "you got that right" I replay it over and over I can't figure it out! It bugs the craps out of me. Then one time I watched it when Balto get the hat Rosie says " Balto! What a great thing to do just to show off to a pretty girl" I could of sworn Rosie didn't say Balto that time. It freaked me out. Is it my DVD or Universal problem. ? Hmmm I wonder

hi guys, i'm new to this site and have found, from an animators point of view, that it is very insightful. As for the problems that pop up, sadly try as we might, those irritating little mistakes always seem to slip through, no matter how hard the animation directors or directors try to prevent it... sigh... we've often had that on shows that we've worked on, for us it can sometimes be a comical relief to see the dissapearing pupils or lines...when there are round 50 animators wall working on different parts of a movie and working an average day of start at 06:30 and endind round 7 or 8... well lets just say they slip through.... but well picked out... it's always great to get to see what people think and notice.
