Yesterday, I shared with you my drawing experience with Mark Henn in video form. Meeting Mark Henn & Drawing The Little Mermaid. He showed us how to draw Vanellope and The Little Mermaid. It was fun sitting down with him and learning how to draw both of these princesses. It’s amazing how all of the Disney animators are so good at teaching art. They break down these characters into really simple shapes and by the end of 15 minutes we have a princess on hand. Go watch my video if you haven’t already!

For now, in honor of Ralph Breaks the Internet becoming available instantly on Digital 4K Ultra HD™/HD/SD and Movies Anywhere Feb. 12, yesterday, and physically on Blu-ray and DVD Feb. 26, we want to chat about lounging as a princess.

Remember that iconic princess scene? The one where all of the princesses come together in the PJ’s and just be cool and chill? Yep that’s what I’m talking about.

Disney has the MOST comfortable lounge wear from the movie that you will ever find.

I have some PJ’s for Merida and my daughter is convinced that she is going to steal them from me. I’m thinking not because every mom deserves to feel like a princess.

Relaxing like  a Princess:

To relax you need some of those comfy PJ’s

The one thing that keeps my daughter from stealing them is that back

If Merida isn’t your princess don’t worry, they made them for each princess

Once you have your PJ’s you need a bath tub and bubble bath

You know, the Frozen Trailer was released today…..

Ok, so we have comfy PJ”s and some bubble bath. Let’s talk about a book, quiet time and possibly some wine.

Reading in the tub is one of my favorite ways to relax. Then afterwards I love to have some warm comfy PJ’s and a glass of wine and continue reading my book. I Disney Princess mom deserves that little bit of time without her children.

When I was 8 years old, The little Mermaid came out and I was instantly in love. I had The Little Mermaid T-shirts, The Little Mermaid artwork, and The Little Mermaid on VHS as soon as was humanly possible. I knew every word to every song. I could recite the entire movie, I even watched The Little Mermaid so many times I wore out my VHS. Remember when you could wear out a VHS?

A few months ago, I got to sit down with Mark Henn, the artist who made that amazing hair. Yes, he animated Ariel. He taught us how to draw The Little Mermaid. He also told us a bunch of funny stories about the process of creating her. I showed this video of him to my web design class one day. Only one of my students was paying attention because he asked if what I was showing was actually appropriate for class.

Oh my …………………………………..

I was on the set of Captain Marvel months ago, months ago I tell you.

It was AMAZING!!!

And I have so much to tell you but for now that’s still under wraps! I can however show you the trailer that dropped!!

And this awesome new Captain Marvel Movie Poster

ABC has a new comedy this year and it’s really funny with a great cast of characters.

The series stars Taran Killam as Will Cooper, Leighton Meester as Angie D’Amato, Kimrie Lewis as Poppy Banks, Jake Choi as Miggy Park, Marlow Barkley as Sophie Cooper, Tyler Wladis as Graham D’Amato, Devin Trey Campbell as Rory Banks, Mia Allan as Emma Fogerty, Ella Allan as Amy Fogerty and Brad Garrett as Douglas Fogerty. Rebecca Creskoff guest stars as Big Red.

On my last visit to LA I got to walk a LOT of the set of Single Parents. You see, because Single Parents has so many kids in the cast, the set has to be really close and easily changeable. Children have very short working hours because they have to also fit in school during their work day. So they do quite a bit of magic and work very quickly and closely to get as much as they can out of those hours. And executive producer, Jason Winer says they have a lot of fun doing it. He also mentioned that they “cross shoot” to film. 

The cameras are firing both directions at once, and it requires the actors blocking to be really specific. Otherwise, you’ll see the other camera. And, again, that’s another way that we trust the kids. They can handle it. We’re saying like, you literally can’t move an inch that way. And they get it, you know what I mean? They’re amazing like that.

Not only did we get to talk to the executive producer, but we also got to chat with Jake Choi who is in love with the twins that play baby Jack. He walked on a lot of the tour with us. Which was really cool. he was a great guy to hang out with.

Another really interesting thing we learned is that certain rooms get re-dressed to be other people’s rooms. Will and Angie’s entire houses are the same set. They just switch them out as needed. Here are a few more photos I have from our set visit.
