The Silver Classics on Instagram: "Helene Stanley was the live action model for Aurora in Sleeping Beauty (1959), Cinderella (1950) and Anita from 101 Dalmatians (1961). At the beginning of the video we hear the voice of Directing Animator, Marc Davis. This was the last fairy tale produced by Walt Disney for some years, thanks to its initially poor performance at the box office; the studio did not return to the genre until years after Disney's death with the release of The Little Mermaid (1989).

In our last post, we took a look at Helene Stanley as the live action model for Princess Aurora. But what about Sleeping Beauty’s villain? Eleanor Audley was the voice actor and live action model for Maleficent. This wasn’t her first role for the studio; she also portrayed Lady Tremaine in Cinderella and later voiced Madam Leota in The Haunted Mansion. | Disney History Channel

Disney History on Instagram: "Helene Stanley provides inspiration for Milt Kahl, Marc Davis, Frank Thomas, and Ollie Johnston as they sketch Ben Ali Gator from Fantasia. Disney started using live action models during the production of Snow White. The models would be recorded so the animators could go back and watch the film in slow motion making sure to animate the movements correctly. #fantasia #disneyanimator #animator #animation #characterdesign #cartoons #disneylegend #disneyhistory"
