I confess, what I noticed right away when I watched Encanto was: all the different skin tones, hair types & body forms, and it made me so so happy to see this! With Encanto people see what a lot of Latin families look like- often a mix of so many beautiful cultures & peoples. Can have the same parents but the kids come out all really really varied. From blonde to black hair, straight locks to tight curls, short to tall in height, very light to very dark skin & every size too- all in one family. The same with the town's people in Encanto, a Latin community or city can be just as varied too! It was accurate.

It’s incredible how well Disney was able to balance the engineering side and artistic side of hair animation.

I hope they continue developing this technology on both sides, and I’m excited to see what will come next!

But this is specifically about the Disney animation studio, not Pixar, which is a completely different studio. Although yes, Pixar is owned by Disney, this video wasn’t about Pixar. Pixar is usually ahead of the curve in most cases. By the time Disney did tangled, Pixar had been doing hair simulations for years and years.

As a curly haired person it makes me really happy! I started noticing that curly hair is not present in games and animations just some time ago and I figured that it's probably because it's hard to animate curls. I'm almost never able to customize my character in games to look like me, because of the lack of curly hair and as dumb and insignificant as it may seem, it really bummed me. My curls are important to me. When I was a kid I was often bullied because of them, but I've grown to love and fully accept them as a part of me so I wish I was able to fully express it when creating a character in game and see curly haired people in animations that I love to watch!

Its amazing how technology and animation has come so far and the fact that more hair types can be represented in more detail - but to be honest I do miss the hand drawn movies very much so and personally prefer them and the classic style which I grew up with - where the details may of been less but in my view the characters somehow looked more realistic (without the 3D big eyes and same-face style) and have started watching their on the side tv shows that present that style.

I think part of the trick is to understand the physics, and the 'teach' them to a computer. That's why animation can move science forwards: if you want to imitate something, or recreate something, you first have to understand it. And if you use current knowledge to recreate something in a computer, and it doesn't act the way it should, then either you made a mistake, or the science is still missing something.

not only did encanto show a lot of diversity with hair types, but it also showed a lot of diversity with facial structure. disney has had a repeated problem with making all their female characters facial structures look the same, especially their 3d ones. but no female character in encanto looks the same. although moana and ralph breaks the internet both led to the evolution of disneys female characters though, like with moana, pocahontas, jasmine, and mulan. disney has come a long way.

seeing curls being represented in movies is so much more important than people would think, not many people have curly hair in my area so as a kid growing up with big curly hair i quickly became insecure especially because kids were so mean, seeing brave as a kid with the big curly hair as a focal point was the first time i had felt like i should appreciate my curls more

the way disney/pixar designs their hair is just so beautiful. even if tangled is a bit outdated now, i cant help but still watch in awe at how well they animated her hair. same goes with moana, i was very excited to see disney animation go from straight hair and try out wavy/curly types. the way encanto was animated in general.. i have absolutely no words for how realistic it was developed. the characters’ hair moved like it was actually real, (and less like string attached to a doll’s head) it really tied the movie altogether with great storytelling. i cant wait to see where disney brings their creativity to next.

Dolores’s hair being curly made me so happy, I’m glad Disney is showing more different types of hair.

See, this is why i love disney & pixar. They always implemented new kind of technology or technique in every single their new movie.

Yet the Oscars felt they had the right to disrespect the work these legends had to go through to make realistic hair by basically saying it's only worth was that it entertained children and children only.

The technicality that goes into creating all these animations is purely spectacular.

The way I'm crying so much right now after watching this. As a person with Curly hair, this has shown me how important representation, even with hair, is. Growing up, you are surrounded by a lot of hate and criticism because you have not straigh hair. calling it ugly , dry, and bad hair, to the point you feel the need to use products to make it straigh so you can feel less criticised from people always commenting on it. Even your own family. Watching has mame truly appreciate the beauty of the curly hair, how it moves, its uniqueness, character, which is different from straigh here, but AS beautiful! I wish I had this when I was growing up so I didn't hate myself so much just because of my hair as well. Thank you Insider for making this video, and thank you Disney animators for creating movies that represent people from different places. Representation it's so important. My 10 year old self thanks you right now. And for all the new generations. Thank you.

For me, one shocking things about Encanto is that you suddenly realized how narrow "diversity" in movies & on tv is (and some *****s are already getting panic attacks about the wokeness!!!!) : "the team of slim beautiful sexy straight-haired women has more than one non-WASP in there, amazing!" I'm glad that we are slowly moving past that "one quota POC" pattern. Even growing up with what Hollywood thinks is standard female hair (of course, _I_ tried to get curls into it!), representations of females tend to be so narrow and idealized, it just messes up your self-perception. And I'm still not over things African-American singers/actresses seemingly turning 'whiter' the more they turn up on magaizne covers. Like, success magically zaps melanin and straightens hair? WT..?

I go to a school where mostly everyone has straight hair so sometimes I would want to straigten it, but after seeing Mirabel's hair, it makes me love my curls even more because I love how it looks and we have almost the same hair type!! It is very close to mine (I'm a type 3a I think)

My respect for my favorite movie, Encanto, just went up even more.

As a latino with curly hair, it felt really honoring watching this with all the different hair textures because I've never seen any animated movie like it.

Tbh in films like toy story 4 all disney has to brag about was like "look at how well we can animate a cat that contributes nothing to the scene other than for flexing" But encanto is truly a masterpiece from every aspect especially the plot, familial problems are nothing new but they write the story in such an amazing way that it's entertaining, funny, sad, insanely relatable with great ending. They also made the right choice to cut out some unneccesarry parts from the movie

Animation really came a long way that’s crazy!!

Just love how encanto shows how diverse Colombia actually is.

Brave was the first time I actually felt represented. I'm yt with natural dark auburn 3b/3c curls. You very rarely, almost never, see a yt character (animated or not) with natural curls. They always have straight or a slight wave, so it was awesome to see ❤️

It's great how Disney is become more inclusive with how it's developing it's animation. Great informative video.

I was rewatching Aladdin once and started to focus on the character's hair, I was looking at how 2D hair was made and what techniques were used to make it look real. A while later I was watching Entanto again and in one scene I was blown away with the hair physics, then I was only looking at their hair and it looked real and interacted in its environment like one would expect it to. Shocking work that pulled off by Disney.

Seriously the main thing I love about Disney movies is the satisfaction of the bouncy curls. Brave and encanto give me so much euphoria in that

2:40 reminds me of finding out how to do something in art and then u love it so u do a project revolved around it

I have this on a t-shirt and it's still true. "True MAGIC is knowing how the trick is done and still thinking its AMAZING"

2:27 Never in my life world I think I would be seeing a fox twerk

its so cool to hear abt these processes! with professional studios like this (and even just individual, unfamous artists) you only see the finished product and it can seem like they make these things almost effortlessly (as in, yes, it still takes a lot of work, but the only struggle for them is the amount of time it takes), but hearing about processes like this shows that no matter who you are, or how skilled, an artist is always going to be growing and adapting and having to work through problems till they can get it just right

Seeing all the behind the scenes of movie animation is so sick and always makes me so happy for some reason

That's really interesting being someone learning 3D modeling, animation and simulations.

This is really why Encanto is so important to me. It was really one of the first times I saw hair like mine (3B) animated, the first time I watched Encanto I almost cried because of it

I'm so impressed by Disney's animations especially 3D CGI animated movies. Technology really has improved so much and so it's a nightmare in a good way.

This is why I absolutely value each one of these movies, because they’ve shown that they improved upon hair animation which made the animations all together feel like we’re actually living it, it makes it feel real.

This is incredible, I've always wondered about the process of all the animation. Having the same type of hair as Mirabel, I was blown away by the realism!

4:16 a challenge indeed considering her hair goes though her neck while singing let it go lol

I love this stuff. In fact, this is the main reason I watch big budget 3D animations. I come for the technical showcase and stay for the story and fun. About hair specifically, I still remember how impressed I was with Brave's hair work for the main character. In addition to hair simulation, I always notice cloth animation and water simulation as well. Speaking of Encanto again, not only the hair was amazing, but the cloth animation for the clothes was also so impressive. I had to rewind scenes and watch them a few times because so much animation was going on. The people that work on these are crazy talented and the tech they use is cutting edge.

I remember watching Frozen 2 and realising how much the animation had evolved from the first movie. The documentary they made was incredible. Also, the animators who did Rapunzel’s hair did an amazing job

When I watched Encanto, I was absolutely fascinated with the hair from pretty much the moment the movie started. It was so cool to see not only my own hair texture represented, but so many others as well. My hair is the same texture and almost the same length as Mirabel's and it was just so amazing to see that on the screen. It might seem small to some people, but I think it goes a log way toward helping people to understand that straight hair is not the only type that's beautiful. I always say the best hair texture is whatever grows out of your head. It was also amazing to see such a variety of body types and sizes, as well as skin colors. It's a great step forward, and I hope this will become the norm going forward.

this makes me so happy. growing up i hated my curly hair. i felt like an outsider without straight blonde hair. I have grown to love my dark brown curls an i love encanto's representation.

Is it any consolation that you can absolutely be an outsider with long straight blonde hair? Because as far as high school society is concerned, you also need to be slim, with perfect skin, no glasses, and no opinions. Not worth the bloody trouble, in my opinion. I'm so glad that young girls today can watch Brave or Encanto or Moana and see themselves in there, having adventures.

I have black 3A type curly hair

I love it how they make it so realistic but still keeping that animated vibes we all love since

yess one of the things that stood out to me the most when I first watched encanto was the amazing curly hair. incredible work

Moana’s animation (specifically the hair) truly blew me away. It still does to this day. I watch it not only enjoying the storyline but also appreciating the amazing carefully thought out animations. It brings me a lot of joy for some reason haha

I don't know if americans appreciate what a Big Deal the movie Moana was here in New Zealand, and how talked about and real-world impactful the *hair* of Moana was. I live in a mainly Pasifika area of the country, and go to a church that is mainly Māori, Tongan and Samoan folks, with also some Filipinos & a few Fijians and Pākehā (like me lol, 2 guesses what church haha). Anyway, I teach a class of little boys and girls who are all about four years old, and also singing time with the

@@Julia-lk8jn sorry, im really bad with doing that! Usually i go back and reread for grammar/spelling/adding line breaks & paragraphs but i think i was either falling asleep (frequently happens) so was trying to finish and gtfo, or I forgot. Sorry either way, hopefully is better/more readable now 😬😅

The amount of work and conplexity of that program induces anxienty into me

thanks for posting this insider! encanto has been getting a lot of hype so it’s nice to show the hard work put into 3D animation movies

Incredible passion and work ethic from the production team. Watching videos explaining the complexity of the animation process makes me feel so ridiculously giddy

I have SO much respect for animator's the things they do are insanely beautiful

omg yes! i immediately noticed the hair texture differences, including the subtler ones.. like how antonio's hair is actually an uneven texture, just like a lot of us! it blew my mind. i was very happy to see it :)

i’m surprised they didn’t mention Merida or Mother Gothels curly hair

Disney should share this hair simulation program with 3D animators in general. It would be revolutionary. Imagine videogames with Type 4 hair(apparently the animators say it's hard to do) & cartoons where everyone can see themselves represented(changing the world doesn't start with adults, it starts with the kids).

Kudos to everyone who makes animated films! Amazing patience and creativity!

Oddly enough, this actually makes me feel really nice about my 4c hair! I don't know, it just makes it seem more beautiful I think

Encanto hasn't stopped surprising me, it's a masterpiece 💖

I loved seeing the curly hair on a 3D animated movie, I appreciate the hard work and it made me so happy as a curly haired person!

Same!! I'm a type 3A and seeing these different hair types in movies such as Encanto makes me love it even more

the sheer amount of work put into movies is absolutely crazy to me

Kudos to the engineers developing all of these programs. So talented👏🏾

It shows how people saying a lot of the Disney animated movies lately "look similar" aren't appreciating the technical feats needed for something as seemingly minor as a single character's hairstyle.
