Have you ever found yourself watching a movie with some incredible special effects, especially those super cool practical effects, and wondered how they pulled them off? Well, you’re definitely not alone, many people are really interested in the magic behind their favorite films.

However, artist Andhika Muksin decided to take that sense of wonder, amazement, and curiosity and turned it into a somewhat silly thought: “What would the behind-the-scenes look like if the classic animated Disney films were real life?”

Like a lot of us, Muksin grew up watching Disney movies and is a long-time fan of some of the quintessential Disney classics like Aladdin and The Little Mermaid. So, taking his inspiration from these Disney works, he created an amusing series of behind-the-scenes illustrations to playfully share how these films would have been made if they were live-action.

“I have been an avid Disney fan since I was a kid,” Muksin shared. “In addition to that, I have always been into art and illustrations and I even had a stint as an artist in my late 20s before I settled on an office job. So I think it was around this time when I started to combine my interests into one: art and Disney. It became my personal way to bring that childhood magic into my adulthood, imagining all these characters dealing with real-life situations in a fun, comedic way.”

Muksin shines his humor on some of the most iconic scenes from our favorite animated Disney films and works up a twist that is not only hilarious but also somehow relatable. For instance, he lets us see Genie from Aladdin, as just a regular dude painted blue from the waist up, filming his part in front of a green screen and some cutouts, while wearing shorts and some comfy crocs.

Or, in the case of Ariel, she’s obviously a real human girl who hides her legs from the camera, while also insinuating that The Little Mermaid is one of those homemade indie movies. There’s nothing a good ring-light and some green sheets can't do for home filmmakers, imaginary or not.
