I Fixed A Disney Princess Dress With VFX

- As a huge Beauty and the Beast fan, I've always been hugely bothered by the design of Belle's dress in the live action adaptation. So I took matters into my own hands and redesigned it to be more along the lines of what I would've hoped to see in the movie.

I dont know we like sleeker, cleaner stuff. You made a lumpy garbage bag. You should go work for woke game development, they want this kind of nonsense.
🤣
are you having an aneurysm?
Who is this "we"?
the movie dress was a snipped up garbage bag.
Please touch grass. While this dress could definitely be improved, it's still better than the Ross Special the movie put her in. Also, the movie was set in a historical period. "Sleek" formal dresses wouldn't exist for quite some time. Also, I have yet to see a "sleek" BALL GOWN. Its name does imply a certain amount of petticoats, you know.
The real problem with the live action dress is the lack of magical impact, like it was with Cinderella, also the details are hidden with the bad choice of fabrics. Belle's dress was supossed to flow with the dance and look glamourous, they could've make the skirt look like gold rose petals and adorn the bust and hair with roses, to make it obvious that she is the rose beast was looking for
Gorgeous idea!
For me it didn't have to look like the one in the original, it just had to be pretty and the one they used was absolutely hideous 😭
That's the frickin concept that should have made this movie a good adaptation. Storytelling. I mean, isn't cinema supposed to show don't tell ? That's how you do it.
Yes, i like your idea and think it would be great! If they weren't gonna go for historical accuracy OR try to be accurate to the animated movie, this would be a good way to make it look *intentional* and not just like they were cheap.
I can’t see anyone complaining about Cinderella.
My main problem is that they edited the dress in post to make it longer and fuller and it looks bad, the dress even "breathes" when she is not moving, it's an abomination.
😱🤯 Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 🤦🏾♀
When? When will these people learn? There should be a ban. If there's not a detailed super fan or cosplayer onsite, you can't make these movies. Just stop it.
@@LugreliaCreatesThey did the same with liveaction Cinderella. They made it pop a little and sparkle more which slightly killed some of the built in color layers that the dress has in real life. The only difference is that Cindy’s dress is a beautiful masterpiece that can stand on it’s own without the filters, while Belle’s dress is screaming for help.
@@uberkirbeeh7954 Facts on Cindy's dress. It's not just Disney for me. I watch anime and there are so many good animes that have been messed up when they've made a live-action adaptation. I swear it's a crime. I don't understand the continuance of this bad habit when it's always met with valid complaints. It is literally the definition of crazy. Doing the same thing and expecting a different reaction from fans.
@@uberkirbeeh7954 plus they nailed in the magical aspect of Cinderella's dress with post production and the added meaning for the butterflies in it
@@LugreliaCreates what bugs me is not the lack of fidelity, but that with the core material already existing they need only to improve on what works and fix what doesn't, instead they make the opposite, they mess up where it worked in the core material and does not fix what didn't
Each and every fan-adaptation dress was better than the movie lmao
Right. And this girl really threw everyone under the bus and said they're ALL disappointing just to sound cool. When the clips she shown were really beautiful dresses that I feel were all made with heart even if they were just for the "gram" or halloween. Big yikes.
@@kumottakun6089 Personally I think they are all bad even the one in this video.
@@emilytucker1765 tbh, the fan sewn dresses actually look better than her 3d made one.
We expected ballgown and the LA gave us prom dress. This was fun!
@@kumottakun6089 i mean she said disappointing to " me " she didn't say they look bad she didn't throw anyone under the buss thats her opinion
Apparently, Emma Watson didn't want a princess dress but something easier to move in. If you're going to play an iconic character, you should at least be faithful to the role.
If that’s really the truth then the blame is on the people who led her make this decision
She also claims the corsets hurt and can kill 😂
She was just a bad fit for the role.
@@MollyHJohnsthat is NOT what she said 💀💀 she said that she didnt want to reinforce unrealistic body standards that are very harmful and dangerous, she didn't want younger girls watching the movie and being brainwashed into thinking that a tiny waist is the standard.
@@iluvcarlossainzYh and it’s still a dumb thing to say. Your playing a iconic character who has shaped fairytales for young girls for YEARS. If it was going to perpetuate a beauty standard it would have already and honestly it’s hella shallow and It’s stupid. Like bf she couldn’t focus on any of belle’s character focal points like her intelligence, strong heart and goodness but how skinny her waist is going to look? during a time period the movie was obviously set in? Yh no. She ruined the whole movie with her unnecessary wokism 😂
disney also missed the iconic shot of panning the camera down from the Chandelier. This shot was a ground breaking way of starting the ballroom dance and one of disney’s early uses of cgi in an animated film. your dress is perfection!
I was looking for someone to say this. THAT SHOT is MY dress problem. I needed that! 😭
The way the ballroom dance scene was shot, blocked by all kinds of weird things in the foreground and just... generally hard to see *anything* at all... It is such a MASSIVE slap to the face compared to how grand and free the original shot feels.
I actually got nauseated during that scene as I watched it in the cinema. The way the shot it just gave me motion sickness.
Now that's the dress she SHOULD have been wearing in the live action. Not the less flamboyant, modern version
Thank you so much :)
The live-action dress was so boooring, apart from the colour NOTHING linked it to the original (superior) version 🥱🥱🥱
Do you know why these dresses are so simple? Because the people that was supposed to be wearing them were not rich theirselves. Belle , aurora and princess tiana were all poor. Which humbled them and that reflected on how much glitz and glam they could wear. Cinderella was different. Her dress turned into rags at midnight. Lol
@@lemonadelemon1960 you *do* know I’m talking about the iconic _yellow dress_ and not Belle’s plain blue number, right? The dress that she was gifted while she was at the Beast’s Castle? Dude was royalty, that wasn’t even a factor in this scenario. The people who made the live-action dress effed up, that’s all there is to it
The animated Belle dress is so iconic it has its own Wikipedia page. And the best we got in the live action version was… a prom dress.
Not even a prom dress...a homecoming dress. lol
@sonya5043 more like a Halloween costume.
Right. I loved everything visually but Belles dress. They were just really lazy on that part.
I at the very least expected a quinceañera dress but alas...
If they had simply presented a dress like this instead of the cheesy looking one, it would have totally made up for all the quibbles I have with the live action version. Thanks for bringing the original to life. You have seriously did it justice👏
Honestly the dress alone is not enough to save that movie
@@mrmr4622 Perhaps you are right, but the huge boost of nostalgia I would have gotten from seeing the original dress would have helped. I would have been as disappointed 😞
Thank you :D
@@mrmr4622 one of the worst problems with the live actions is that disney wants to pay the bare minimum for CGI despite these being huge projects that deserve better. the guardians of the galaxy movies have some AMAZING CGI creatures and high quality CGI so it is clearly possible but disney limits it so much for the princess movies because "kids are going to watch it anyways.'
Her dress in the movie was horrible. Your dress should have been the one she wore
Weren't corsets just shapewear? You weren't actually supposed to tie them so tight you can't breathe. Even working class women wore them while doing everyday chores. They performed the same function as spandex.
Yep, the real purpose was pretty much the same as a bra.
As a 3D artist myself i think it's funny how you put so much effort and 360 ° detailing into that model, just for it to be seen from the front view and for like 5 seconds :D and yes i am just a lazy artist.
ikr ... should been a TH-cam shorts ...
Amazing work ! I don’t get why you’d go through all this effort just to show us the final result for a total amount of 3 seconds tho. At least give us a few loops so we can bask in it’s glory !
Lol that's a fair point. We should have definitely kept it looping. We'll keep that in mind for the next one thanks!
@@crafthive Maybe consider reuploading with more footage of the final product? At worst you get double the views
Thought the same thing
I was about to make the same comment. 3 whole seconds 😅
6:11
What made Belles live action gown even worse in my opinion was the fact that in 2015 Cinderellas gown was given the live action treatment and was phenomenal and then 2 years later we get Belles gown. But they did redeem themselves a bit with Jasmine because her live action wardrobe was stunning but then they backtracked with Ariel’s outfits or lack of should we say.
This but also jasmine’s outfits were amazing but at the cost of even the tiny bit of accuracy you could argue the original had
Cinderella 2015 is the best of the live actions and Disney literally refuses to acknowledge it. It's not even on Disney+.
That’s true up till that point the remakes were good because they did something different to the animated, after Cinderella they went downhill fast in both quality and story. The remakes aren’t a bad idea if done right and Cinderella show how to remake animated film in live action. From the story to the costumes and sets and the cast everything is just perfect. A lot of love and care went into it and it really shows
@@mint7442 what are you talking about? Disney is never historically accurate.
@@user-nk2rp5eq4l yeah but they made the live action very Indian and just as revealing as the original outfit despite being years later and having an actual expectation to do something sorta actually correct
I didn't necessarily need Bell's dress to look like the animated version... I would have settled for something that didn't look like a prom dress that was bought in a mall in Glendale. I have my own vision of what I thought the dress should look like, but yours is beautiful!
Not a mall in Glendale lmaoo im dead
A mall in Glendale...that is so spot on lol
I was so disappointed in the Disney dress. I was expecting gold brocade and tissue lamé, maybe even some silk organza or yumissima like in the Cinderella dress. Thank you for creating this!
My only issue with the redesign is how padded it looks, like a bed comforter or curtains, rather than smooth and elegant.
It's funny how the fanbase can agree on one thing, they did Belle a disservice with that dress and she deserved a golden ballgown.
Wait did you say the cosplay ones were disappointing?! But those were literally made by people with limited budgets, all by themselves, and if anything had even more textures and historical references.
This just means they weren't what they envisioned.
Cinderella got the best gown. It was magical, dreamy, and different in a good way.
emma watson playing hermione granger playing belle, got a cheap looking halloween costume.
1: If I ever met Paige O'Hara trust me I would start ugly sobbing and not be able to speak a word.
2: THANK YOU! As a designer, and a lover of historical fashioning proper corsets I despise the cgi dress Emma Watson wears in the live action (I liked Beast's live action outfit, but I prefer the og)
3: Next, fixing that flat hairstyle she has in the live action
(lovely job!)
Thank you so much! Yes, meeting Paige O'Hara was surreal, I got her to sign my Beauty and the Beast:Christmas Edition VHS cassette cover, When she saw me completely starstuck, she felt so bad and gave me a hug hahaha! Still makes me laugh to this day. I really appreciate your comment :)
Nothing short of a good wig can fix Emma Watson's boring ass hair
And nothing can fix her lack of acting skills
Your dress ended up prettier than the movie (not surprising) but most of all I enjoyed the footage of how you did it and now I kinda want to get into it too. There's just one thing I want to point out: It's not a corset, it's a bodice. No hate towards you, I just see so people online use the wrong word.
Very true, that's my bad!
Thanks for the kind words. You should absolutely get into it. It's a lot of fun!
This is what her dress should have been!!!! You have rhe magic and elegance of her original dress from the 90s!!!
Woaaa this is so gorgeous ! A little too golden to my taste maybe. I always pictured that dress more of champagne and ivory for irl. But I love it !
In fact, I liked the one from the live action movie (too much yellow) but it’s not really Belle’s. It’s like they wanted to make a ref to the shape of Hermione Granger Yule Ball’s dress from Goblet Of Fire in fact.
yes my thoughts
Always amazes me how people do this stuff, crazy talented!
I was kinda hoping for a side by side shot at the end though of your finished dress next to the cartoon movie version
Very nice! I love that the colors are much more rich and elegant and the multiple shades. Imagining this regal gold dress with the blue of the beast sounds so pretty. This still wouldn't save the film as I can't even count all the things that peeved me off, but this would have been much lovelier to see!
I really like the top of the redesigned dress, but the bottom looks too bulky and chaotic. Like you took a few curtains and wrapped them around her waist. The colors are also very dark and muted. Your concept was pretty solid, though.
Anyone could have done better than both her and the movie. The movie looks like a evening gown from 1939 with the geometry of a 1860s southern belle design, whereas her interpretation looks like nothing, and very unnatural puff fabric design, which a horrid unnatural look to it..somehow outworst by the torso which I despise.
this is exactly Belle’s dress omg
seeing the comparison between yours and the original, og looks like a cheap costumey prom dress now
Because beauty and the beast follows Cinderella release-wise, it was so disappointing. Cinderella was beautiful costume wise!
I can see the vision you had, I wished the dress had been more accurate to the movie. And ontop of that- I hadn't realized how close the color was to an omollet and now I can't unsee it. xD
Some people are just so talented and tech savvy...I could never. This was amazing ❤❤
This is a-ma-zing! I watched the live action movie when I was in elementary school, so I honestly didn't really compare it/care too much about differences from the original movie, but now I can see how her live action dress is...cute, but lackluster compared to the original. I love your rendering of it!
Please do Ariel’s ballgown in The Little Mermaid ❤
It's on my list :D
@@crafthive can you do Ariels ending glitter dress.
agreed@@d-1381
Ballgown, done! go check it out! Let me know what you think :)
I didn't have the time to add the silver dress in there, maybe for another video, but its on my radar :D
you only show the final product for 3 seconds, come on, you gotta linger on the final reveal more than that
Can you make an historical accurate version of the dress? 🥰
that is definitely an improvement!! .. "M'lady, may I have the honor of dance?"
You made it so much better! I wish people like you were in charge of it.
The thing that pisses me off about the live action dress is that there was concept art showing a more period-accurate dress that looked way better than the final product. So mad they went with that cheap prom dress.
As someone who has identified with Belle all her life, I want to thank you for doing such a marvelous job. Now the the dress that you made using VFX is absolutely perfect!
Good stuffs! Appreciate the "old school" approach, manually tracking / aligning the 3D ref geo. I was wondering how far you can take it with them AI object track solutions these days, WonderStudio et al. Yet thinking about it, at least in more complex shots, them solutions would hard struggle to object track the person acting in that kind of gown.
Amazed by the dress btw!
FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just LOVE this!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ASTOUNDING JOB, now it looks opulent, rich and decadent, fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Girl, Disney needs to hire you, you're actually creative and know what you're doing to make the animated masterpieces come to life.
Sheesh that look wayy better and still realistic too
Wow !! You nailed it!!
Thanks !!
your dress is beautiful :D this is how they should of made the dress just like the beautiful animation :D
I think the one at 1:16 is nice :) if they'd made something like that, but with a Disney budget behind it, they could've come up with something that could stand alongside the incredible Cinderella dress in a live action Princess lineup. but alas.
then with the various dresses from The Little Mermaid they didn't even try, which was tragic. Ariel didn't have the same kind of showstopper as the others, but she still had some really nice dresses. and the sparkly dress coming out of the ocean was to die for, and also just not that hard to pull off. they could've done it. :P
I just made a video for the Pink ballgown, check it out and let me know what you think :)
Amazing, We want more tutorial like this(CG dress compositing with live action footages)💖
Awesome video! Dress looks so much better.
You did a pretty good job. Everyone talks about the dress, which is indeed terrible, but no one ever mentions how Emma Watson is standing in it. Her posture is bad the whole movie, but in this scene it's particularly egregious and sticks out like crazy.
The dress, which is still elegant looking at least, looks way worse juxtaposed against her posture and expression. Its such an awkward looking shot. Ironically, it demonstrates how she would have benefitted from a corset, something invented by women for women to help with support.
Girl you are a witch! I understood none of what you said but loved hearing you explain how you performed this magic! Brava!
It still looks kinda bad in a cosplay sort of way, but it is better than the movie.
I think it should have been a draped fabric dress over shaping undergarments (crinoline?) a la the Marie Antoinette movie. The puffs above the drapes give a cartoony/cosplay like visual rather than an actual lavish ballgown.
They backpedal a lot on the reasoning, Said That the made dress intentional like That to make it easier to animate the dress flowing In the twirl shot. Some say they thought animators would Add details later.
Or some suckers decided the simpel design was a “feminist princess look”.
Seeing you doing a better job. really shows the skill issue and messy judgement in part that is Disney’s live action productions.
Beautiful work. That takes a lot of skill and time to do.
This one is great, it would have been awesome to see this in the big screen
This is so cool! What a labor of love. You're very talented!
Amazing design, you literally made her dress look exactly how most of us hoped it would’ve looked. You should do a reimagined version of Cinderella’s live-action dress.
You guys are sooo skilled
Thank you, we really appreciate it :)
Most definitely better and beautiful!
I liked this video, it's fun to see more feminine tutorials about VFX rather then just guns, gore, and explosions. Great work and perspectives.
Thank you! I have so many Ideas, stay tune :)
You worked on Ghost in the Shell?! That's so cool! The special effects in that movie got nowhere near the amount of praise they derserved; I thought it was a super cool movie! I actually prefer it to the original anime, for a variety of reasons.
very satisfying video!!!
I have no idea what this is and I needed to breathe through a paper bag when watching all the techy stuff but that's amazing! So much work for so little frames. Well done!
Wow, you really nailed it!
My favorite is at 1:16 . The dress is exactly how I pictured Belle's dress. Good job to the fan who made it!👍👏👏👏
This is SO MUCH better!!
Emma so desperately wanted to make a dress with no corset, and by extension, no sign of oppression, and then ended up in something that resembles a modest, yellow Duggar wedding dress! Bless her, she tried 😂
@@kameryngreer3098 She had quite a bit of influence over the costumes she wore. The designer didn't even make the dress, there was probably a team making it, but that dress was created through a collaborative effort, which included Emma. And considering how fantastic all the extras costumes were, and how brilliant Jacqueline Durran's work is on other films, personally I'm going to blame Emma Watson for the yellow dress 😂
Wow this was amazing!
Now THAT. Is how you turn a cartoon dress into a love action possibility. That looks SO much better.
I don't think my computer could run some of this stuff, but it was really interesting to watch. Definitely going to see what else is on your channel!
You just mastered! 🔥🔥
Thank you so much :)
May favorite is when one pins felt tacos 🌮 on the lower half. People look puzzled, then chuckle once they get it. Best Halloween party ever. 😅
The dress looks perfect now
This was awesome and you're are so talented!
Thank you :)
HERMOSOOO 😍❤️ me encanta el cambio que hiciste, el vestido es simplemente precioso ❤
i love both dresses BUT yours is more princess like hehe
The dress from *The King And I.* If they'd created a replica of that dress, it would have been perfect. It was already in gold, and it could withstand a full dance number. But who am I kidding? Emma Watson the drama queen wouldn't have agreed to wear it. 😆
Amazing work ❤
thanks
This is literally the coolest ever.
This is so satisfying; thank you for making this!! Has a live-action version of a Disney animated feature ever been worth making? Anything that gets changed is inevitably disappointing, so why bother (except, obviously, as a cashgrab)?
Now I see dressed in premium version ❤❤❤
Great work!
I... Forgot just how bad that movie dress was... Wow... Your transformation is amazing!
Designerdaddy created the most amazing Belle dress
what's the application is she using?
I'm using Marvelous Designer and Maya in this video
Text book example of ADHD/VFX artist, im in love
This was amazing! Well done! I can't believe you only have 4.88K subscribers. I really appreciate the amount of work you put into this. I also HATED the live action Belle ballgown, especially because I LOVED the cartoon one. I've always thought about making this dress (I can sew) properly. You chose the right fabrics for sure here! I think I may steal your design when I finally get around to it 😜 Well done again! New subscriber here! 👍 Big love to you from Manchester UK xXx
Thank you so much!! :) I'd love to see what you come up with when it's done :D
Thank you, honestly. I’ve despised this dress for the longest time and it’s so nice to get a visual of what i would have liked to actually see.
What Amazing Job ! WOW
Super cool!
How is weather?
Ai!
A little cold, thanks for asking!
Cosplayers proved that this dress is 100% possible… it s all because of Emma unfunded issues with corsets
See Disney? It's not that you couldn't do it. It's you didn't want to
That's so cool!!!! I truly HATED the live action dress, so this is a band-aid over such a long hurt, but appreciated none the less!!!!!
What was that first program you used to create the drapey skirt???? It looked amazing!!! Do you have any more in-depth videos about using it???
what do u need computer wise to be able to run this stuff?? looks great!
That amount of work for just a couple of frame of an almost static shot could've been done in photoshop.
Where's the fun in that?
Your version is already so much better and so beautiful!💛It really looks like Belle's og dress and actually feels like it belongs in a fairy-tale setting! The live action dress doesn't do justice to the original at all. It feels lackluster and uninspired and doesn't embody the elegance and romantic style that the original dress has. Whereas your version gives that dreamy and magical vibe that made so many of us fall in love with the original. 😊
It's a shame in the remake they didn't even do the bare minimum and instead robbed Belle of her iconic gloves. They couldn't even make the sleeves of the dress similar to the original like you did. Cosplayers have made better versions of Belle's dress with less time, money and resources than a multi-billion dollar company. The remakes often change details that were already perfect when they had a successful blueprint right in front of them that they only needed to copy. Instead they waste time and money changing things that never needed to be changed
Watching this video with a headache was a bad idea ‘cause I was trying so hard to follow what she was doing lol (amazing work btw)
great video, and clever topic!
love it!!!
