One thing I\u2019m really interested in is how old-time Disney movies use music and sound effects to create stylized audio for their characters that they play when the character is on screen. I really like that Disney uses this technique to add to characterization. I don\u2019t feel like I\u2019ve heard this technique used a lot inn more modern movies, so this is a technique that also brings me a lot of nostalgia for when I would watch these movies as a child. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
One great example is the audio clip from Aristocats that went viral on TikTok. This is a sound clip that would play when Abigail and Amelia Gabble would walk. Abigail and Amelia are geese, which their sound clip seems to draw from. One of the most memorable parts of the clip is a little fluttering of notes that brings to mind a bird ruffling its feathers, matching the fact that Amelia and Abigail are geese. Another aspect I enjoy is the rhythm of the song, which seems to encourage the listener to mimic the waddle the geese walk with (and influence the cats to walk with as well). It\u2019s also a lighthearted and upbeat tune, which matches Abigail and Amelia\u2019s personalities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
