🌟🎥 Behind-the-Scenes Reveal: Choreographing "Ralph Breaks the Internet"! 🕺💻

Hey there, IG fam! It's Paul Becker, the choreographer of the sensational "Ralph Breaks the Internet," here to spill some behind-the-scenes magic! 🎬✨ You might be wondering, why on earth does an animated movie need a choreographer? Well, let me enlighten you on this incredible journey.

When I stepped into Disney Animation Studios and laid eyes on the storyboards, I knew we had something special in the making. Storyboards are these lightly drawn, animated sequences that guide the narrative. And guess what? There was a thrilling musical number for Vanellope! 🎵💃

But I couldn't help but think, "Let's take this to the next level!" So, I got to work redesigning the choreography, matching it frame-for-frame to the boards. I captured the whole process on film during rehearsals, editing it together with precision. That's when I presented it to the directors. Collaborating with their valuable notes, the scene evolved into something truly spectacular! 🎥💫

But wait, there's more! The animators came into play, using our footage as a reference to meticulously create the animated dances. They wanted every tap, every move, to be absolutely on point. And trust me, when you see the tap dancing in the movie, it's spot on! 👞🔊

Then came the next step: sound design. We headed to Skywalker Studios and teamed up with the incredible John Rocher. Now, when you think of tap dancing, you might imagine the echoes on a marble floor. But in our case, we had to reimagine the sounds, considering our lively routine takes place on vehicles! 🚗🎶

Here's where it gets even more interesting. The prop we used for creating the sounds was none other than the iconic piece from "Back to the Future." That's right, every time the door opened or closed, anything related to it, we tapped away on this piece. Talk about movie history intertwined! 🚪⚡️

Now, let me tell you, it wasn't easy. Balancing in car doors while trying to create clear, authentic sounds was a challenge. But guess what? We found a solution! We put tap shoes on our hands and meticulously recreated every sound frame by frame. It was a labor of love, but boy, did we nail it! 👐👞💥

So, there you have it, my friends! A glimpse into the incredible journey of choreographing "Ralph Breaks the Internet." From storyboards to rehearsals, from animators to sound design, every step was a thrilling adventure! 🎉✨

Don't forget to catch this mind-blowing film and experience the magic we brought to life! And if you're a fan of tap dancing, be prepared to be blown away by the accuracy and creativity that went into every sequence! 🎩🌟
