Jack
Campbell was an animator on classic on Disney films and is my 108th choice as a
Disney Legend. This information is
mostly from the blog 50 Most Influential Disney Animators. One of the first
masters of the human figure at Disney and a key animator on Snow White as well
as the Blue Fairy. Some believe he did use a little too much rotoscope
sometimes but at least he drew the anatomy properly and made the animation
believable. Some of his later accomplishments include Mr. Blue Bird in Song of
the South and Aunt Sarah in Lady and the Tramp.

Whenever you see beautifully drawn characters in the films jack Campbell worked on they were usually his. he was the premier animator on Snow White as far as I'm concerned. His drawings of her were beautiful and very different from some of the other animators. Grim Natwick's look dated while Jack's are as fresh and current as can be.
