The Jungle Book- Reiamgined

- October 23, 2019
Featurette - notes


  • The first version Jon was given was far from the original film. A lot more violence, no music, King Louis wasnt in it. 
  • The book was filmed by holes drilled into the table. 
  • They shot some scenes in suits (motion capture) so they can imagine and picture the scene and film. 
  • Blue scenes are used. 
  • They used pannels of LED to see where the light is. 
  • They alter characters poses or other objects. they change and alter the composition. 
  • Puppets used to make the performer feel as if it real. 
  • Eyeline props - more real emotion
  • Changed the renderings of the characters to match the actor's emotions or movements. 
  • Able to change the weather to affect the mood and scene.
  • Changed the male role of the snake in the original to a female. Much more seductive and reinventive. 
  • 104 piece orchestra for the music in the film. Jon wanted the classic orchestral sound so it has the timeless Disney feel. Involved is also cultural instruments.
  • Richard Sherman (the original songwriter) came in and changed some lyrics in the songs so it would fit in with some changed characters. e.g. King Louis
