Happily Never After


So here it is after all: The HNA-Trailer.
A loooooooong time ago in a galaxy far far away I too had that troubled project on my desk. It was one of those typicall German briefings : Hired for a week or two I was asked to come up with a bunch of sketches, no chance to do some real serious, professional work, just a bit of doodling.
You might have seen some of this sketches in a different context before, anyway : here they are again, and please check out the trailer under the above link.





The wizad had a little pet back then, a cross of dog and dragon

















Audrey Hepburn as Sabrina was my brief for Cinderella





Robbie Williams was role model for the cook.That might give you an idea about how long ago this was,Judging from the trailer it changed to Johnny Depp.

I too worked on it, for about a week- when the script had been rewritten 67 times and would afterwards be rewritten some more(32 times). At that time the thing was 2d of course and being done at Gerd Hahn's studio. I saw some character sheets that blew me away- gorgeous color and great detail in the costumes. There doesn't seem to be much left of that....

Wow! The drawings are amazing (like they alwalys are :)), it reminds me of a mixture between "Lord Of The Rings" and "Taran und der Zauberkessel" (don't know the english title...)!

How cool would it have been to make this movie in 2D...*double-sigh*
At least we can enjoy the 2D character designs!HA!
Thank you for posting them!!

Typical German production - off to a good start and then downhill from there on for many years to follow. Will they ever laern!?

Amazing character designs that make me wish 2d sans cleanup (modern day definition of cleanup) was back again, ala robin hood, jungle book etc.

Harald, these are wonderful "doodles." I really enjoyed that dragon dog with the six legs. Very funny, and very clever. You're one of the best!!!
