"Frozen 2" is the long-awaited follow-up to the 2013 Disney animated smash hit featuring characters like Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Kristoff, and Sven. For the sequel, animators updated Anna and Elsa's outfits, re-built parts of Arendelle, and figured out how to turn water, wind, fire, and rocks into living, breathing creatures like Gale and the Nokk.

We took a look at all of the interesting details and techniques the Disney animators used to make "Frozen II" and how they improved upon the first film.

    “Even creating a horse out of water.” Poseidon: Pathetic

    “The main characters Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf” Sven: Am I a joke to you
  • @user-tg7cn5ms2g
    It’s a shame how audiences never notice or realize the insane amount of effort gone into these movies while watching them
  • the fact that people still point out those super tiny mistakes when they don't even know the effort people put for animated movies or just any movie in general
  • @Darkqueef69
    I refuse to believe that it has been 6 years since the 1st Frozen movie come out.
  • @swaystar1235
    "Why did they make us wait 6 years for a sequel" Incredibles 2: am i a joke to you?
  • @dumbpunk1165
    "The animators didn't know how to animate a religious figure, so they went to Greece and summoned the ancient Olympians and studied how they moved"
  • @sunjoexys7251
    The "Show Yourself" sequence along with taming of the water horse before it might be the single most impressive full-CG animation sequence ever.
  • “I need to be inspired to draw wind” Normal folk: let’s go outside Disney Animators: LET’S FLY MY GUY
  • Can't believe that they manage to have new software within those six years to create those hyper-realistic details in almost everything
  • @hope-uk5mf
    But the sad part is, they take years to make this, work so hard on the details but, most of details goes unseen. Most of these animators are not at all recognized and appreciated!! So sad!!
  • Elsa : walks back and front Insider: "They walked back and front to know how it would feel if Elsa was walking back and front"
  • @saff1257
    no one: disney’s programmes’ names: splash, swoop, BEAST
  • @juliebee7415
    So are you telling me they made Quicksilver, Beast, Swoop, and Splash software programs, consulted a vocal coach, went skydiving, traveled to Norway, Iceland, and Finland, AND stood on a glacier JUST FOR THIS SEQUEL?! hmm sounds pretty easy...
  • @shwetambari7446
    And this is the reason they took 6 years, Can you imagine? 8 months making just a horse!
  • @alleemaria97
    The circles under the eyes and other realistic features on their faces are also because they're older now. Frozen 2 is about them becoming adults :)
  • “The main characters Elsa, Anna, Kristoff and Olaf” Sven: Sad reindeer noises
  • @wia752
    honestly it never felt like I've waited 6 years, whenever I watch or listen to frozen songs I feel like the movie released probably a week or a month ago
  • our mom let us skip school on the day the movie came out, and we went to burger king and then she surprised us with FROZEN!! in the imagine movie theater...... That was one of the best days ever!!
