Artist Turns Pet Photos into Adorable Disney Animated Animals

Artist Turns Pet Photos into Adorable Disney Animated Animals

Artist Turns Pet Photos into Adorable Disney Animated Animals. Get ready to say “Awwww!” a lot in this post.

Dutch illustrator, Isa Bredt, started drawing pet submissions as classic 2D animated “Disney-fied” characters and the artwork is adorable. Bredt refers to this practice as “disneyfication” and created an Instagram account dedicated to featuring her work. The drawings have recently gone viral online and it’s very clear why!

“Pet disneyfications is something I did very sporadically in my free time for about 5 years,” Bredt shared when speaking with Bored Panda. “I started because I was and still am a big fan of both drawing animals and the old Disney style.”

She went not say she is not a Disney animator, but wanted to practice the iconic 2D animation style associated with the House of Mouse and offered to do free drawings with photo submissions from fellow Reddit users.

“I am just a very big fan. The Lion King is my all time favorite movie, I used to watch it daily as a child. I adore the old animal movies; Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmatians, the Aristocats. There was a subreddit where you could offer free art to people. I wanted to practice the Disney style, so I offered free drawings for people who would send me pictures of their pets.”

“I did this a few times and people really enjoyed it, though I wasn’t very good yet,” she explained. “Then, last summer, I decided to take on commissions as a summer job because I didn’t want to work in the food service industry again, and it went well enough that I decided to create an Instagram and do the commissions as a side job.”

Bredt’s work is “paws”itively adorable and features many kinds of animals, but a good chunk of the work featured Cats and Dogs from many backgrounds. Some opportunities are more candid than others, but we could easily see that the drawings seem to jump right out of classic Disney films!

Lionel Richie and Disney Collaborating on an ‘All Night Long’ Musical

Lionel Richie and Disney Collaborating on an ‘All Night Long’ Musical

Lionel Richie and Disney Collaborating on an ‘All Night Long’ Musical. Award winning performer and American Idol judge Lionel Richie is teaming up with Disney to create a musical using his most iconic music from his impressive career.

The working title for the project is called All Night Long after Richie’s most notable song from 1983 that plays on radio and streaming stations around the world to this day. Pete Chiarelli (Crazy Rich Asians) is reportedly penning the script for All Night Long.

Current plans aim for a theatrical release of the musical and the studio has claimed it will not be a biopic, but a musical incorporating Lionel Richie’s music to a new story. A full list of songs for the musical has not been released and it is unknown if the song will be rerecorded for the film and performed by the actors within the production or if Lionel Richie will contribute to the piece with potential new recordings.

Are you excited to see a new musical in development? What famed song from Lionel Richie do you hope to see incorporated into the project? We would love to hear your thoughts and suggestions in the comments. Be sure to check back here at Chip and Co. for all things Disney!

The ‘Dinosaurs’ TV Show is Coming to Disney+ This Fall

The ‘Dinosaurs’ TV Show is Coming to Disney+ This Fall

The ‘Dinosaurs’ TV Show is Coming to Disney+ This Fall. During the airing of Ryan Reynolds new ABC TV Show, Don’t, the famed actor and businessman shared that the early 90’s hit show from ABC, Dinosaurs, is on the way to Disney+ sometime this fall! Reynolds did not give any specific dates, but it comes as no surprise that Disney is looking to add nostalgic titles to the streaming service and allow subscribers to enjoy their favorite shows while growing up or raising their families.

Not familiar with the series? Check out this synopsis of the show: “Dinosaurs live like humans in this 1990s sitcom set in 60,000,003 B.C. in Pangaea. Blue-collar dinosaur Earl Sinclair tries to cope with short-tempered boss Bradley P. Richfield of the Wesayso Corporation so he can put food on the table for his large family: sweet-natured and long-suffering wife Fran, rebellious teenage son Robbie, shop-til-she-drops daughter Charlene and precocious Baby, not to mention his crusty mother-in-law, Ethyl. On his rare night out, Earl pals around with his buddy Roy Hess. The show touched on a number of topical issues, including environmentalists, endangered species, LGBT rights, censorship and corporate crime.”
