Thanks to the TAG Blog, we have a clip from the canceled Disney animated feature "Wild Life":

go to 7:50 here:

A little off topic but oh wow, I cant imagine how they make any animated film with a budget less than 3 million. The guy is really good!

OMG that looked awful.

yeah, something seems obvious from that tiny clip about why it got cancelled.... I was impressed with his other work however, given his small budget.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's amazing!!! It's definitely a different art style than what we're used to from WDFA, but wow!!!! I know that the story was more "adult" than was wanted for a family film, and that's why it got the axe, but still- wow! I wonder how far they got, animation-wise- I'd love to see more!!!

Yeah, he mentions that there was another clip "Disney would never let me have" - hmm, revealing of just how 'adult' it was?

That was.....interesting.

Is it me, or does the skinny singer look like a younger Yzma?

I am very unimpressed with the style of the clip. It has nothing to do with it not being Disney style. Technically, Disney has many styles. But this time around, I am not a fan of it at all. Its hard to judge just how it would have been from that one clip. The style reminds me of Cool World in CGI. And I didn't like Cool World's animation style...so there ya go.

The funny thing is that according to the stories about Wild Life's production was that everyone was really impressed with the design and style of the film.

I personally can't stand how overly painted on the elephant's face looks. And the style is greatly exaggerated.

I see the resemblance to Yzma, as well! I don't know, I think the clip was way too short to judge anything. But it did leave me wondering what was going on, and wanting to know more about the Tiger and Elephant. The style was a little unusual, I think, but not entirely unpleasant.

It looked like a fifth generation video game to me.
