Which Studio Made What DTV, Exactly?

Post by Neal »

Everyone always pins all the direct-to-video features on DisneyToon Studios in Australia, but didn't other studios do some of the DTVs? I didn't think every single one was done in Australia?

Walt Disney Televesion Animation - Leroy & Stitch; Mickey, Donald, & Goofy: Three Musketeers

Where was "A Goofy Movie" made?

A studio in Tokyo made some?

And now, is the DisneyToon Studios and Television Animation studio the same thing? Did they merge when Lasseter took over?

My two questions are:

1) Which DTVs were made where, since it seems some were made in the U.S., some in Europe, not all in Australia. What were the names of these different studios, where were they located, what did they produce?

2) Is DisneyToon Studios Australia all gone? Does it only exist in the U.S. now? And did it merge with Disney Television Animation?

I know that at least part of The Little Mermaid II was produced by their old Canadian studio.

A Goofy Movie was a theatrical feature. DTV movies are done in-studio now.

I believe "A Goofy Movie" was made in France.

To the best of my knowledge, "A Goofy Movie" was covered by the Paris, France DisneyToon Studios. The clean up was done somewhere in Canada.

Okay, this is a good start to the type of info. I'm looking for. It seems everyone just lugs all the DTVs under the banner "DisneyToon Studio in Australia" when that's not the case.

So where are/were all the DisneyToon Studios located?

Australia (headquarters)
France
Canada

I seem to remember "The Hunchback of Notre Dame II" being made (in part, at least) at a Disney facility in Tokyo, Japan.

It's been a few years since I've seen it last, so I might be wrong.

The Fox and the Hound II was animated in the Philippines.

"A Goofy Movie" brings up a nice interesting situation in regards to cannon as the Paris studio was Feature Animation - not Television/DisneyToon - and actually worked on every theatrical release from Hunchback (playing a major role... I think they did the entirety of Bells of Notre Dame and the Brizzi bros story-boarded Hellfire...) right up until it's closure.

However, a quick check of a the movie credits reveals that the Paris Studios are credited as "Walt Disney Animation - Paris, France" (Is there any other significant Paris in the world?) inline with Sydney's then title "Walt Disney Animation - Sydney, Australia" which I guess lumps it in with the TV crowd at that time. Additional work was done at "Pheonix Animation - Toronto, Canada" and "Walt Disney Feature Animation - Burbank". Digital Inking and Painting was done by "Pixibox Digital Ink and Paint". Awesome credits music by Tevin Campbell of Quest Records (hence I2I and Stand Out being Album Only on iTunes as Disney probably only has limited rights).

As far as I'm concerned, A Goofy Movie is honorary cannon even through Paris only got promoted after it got finished. Part of the work was done in Burbank, it was developed by Katzenburg's team and it consistently manages to upstage Pocahontas.[/b]
