hair way different, skin lighter

2018-09-26 04:43:29 UTC  

looks younger but idk if that is just part of the movie

2018-09-26 04:43:36 UTC  

I guess her skin is a bit lighter

2018-09-26 04:43:41 UTC  

is she supposed to be black?

2018-09-26 04:43:47 UTC  

yes

2018-09-26 04:43:47 UTC  

I am not familiar with disney films

2018-09-26 04:44:22 UTC  

I mean, there are reasons to lighten skin for film

2018-09-26 04:44:51 UTC  

ultimately, with less light being transmitted, you lose detail

2018-09-26 04:45:01 UTC  

Ya, I wasn't too interested in most of the video, as I don't follow disney either. But tim likes to put some of his opinions in strange places.

2018-09-26 04:45:29 UTC  

not really sure that that's a big difference

2018-09-26 04:45:45 UTC  

I haven't watched this tim video you're talking about though

2018-09-26 04:45:47 UTC  

the hair is the biggest difference

2018-09-26 04:46:05 UTC  

and I obviously have not heard the controversy that sparked it

2018-09-26 04:46:35 UTC  

His opinion on social justice is really the main takeaway I got, well that and people complain about everything, but that's obvious at this point.

2018-09-26 04:46:38 UTC  

yeah, she went from a weave to a... somewhat more believable maybe-non-weave

2018-09-26 04:46:58 UTC  

also looks better in my opinion

2018-09-26 04:47:17 UTC  

well and the color

2018-09-26 04:47:24 UTC  

yeah, it's dyed

2018-09-26 04:47:26 UTC  

it seems

2018-09-26 04:47:38 UTC  

is it viable for it to be dyed, in the context of the story?

2018-09-26 04:47:53 UTC  

i mean, idk, the one on the right is from a movie not yet out

2018-09-26 04:47:57 UTC  

thats just from the promo

2018-09-26 04:48:04 UTC  

they said they are changing it

2018-09-26 04:48:12 UTC  

I mean, also they don't really have to make her look like some prototypical example of a recognizable "race"

2018-09-26 04:48:20 UTC  

oh, they're changing it?

2018-09-26 04:48:28 UTC  

disney is yeah

2018-09-26 04:48:30 UTC  

I hope not due to people being fucking idiots

2018-09-26 04:48:38 UTC  

but I guess that's probably why

2018-09-26 04:49:00 UTC  

what do the complainers want?

2018-09-26 04:49:01 UTC  

i think they are just messing with the colors, not necessarily character design

2018-09-26 04:49:03 UTC  

darker skin?

2018-09-26 04:49:09 UTC  

black hair?

2018-09-26 04:49:17 UTC  

to complain

2018-09-26 04:49:33 UTC  

they claimed she came out lighter than expect due to translation issues going from the 2d to 3d with light modeling and all that

2018-09-26 04:49:49 UTC  

what they mean is

2018-09-26 04:49:53 UTC  

they lit the scene well enough

2018-09-26 04:50:05 UTC  

that her skin detail is visible, and her hair set off from her face, to frame it

2018-09-26 04:50:11 UTC  

they lit it so well, even the black person turned white

2018-09-26 04:50:18 UTC  

heheh

2018-09-26 04:50:26 UTC  

cultural appropriation
