Disney died of lung cancer in Burbank, California, on December 15, 1966. The following year, construction began on Walt Disney World Resort in Florida. His brother Roy Disney inaugurated the Magic Kingdom on October 1, 1971. Encanto was the "hardest film" to date for heads of animation Renato dos Anjos and Kira Lehtomaki because they were asked to fully develop a dozen characters, as opposed to other animated films which primarily feature two or three characters out of a large cast. [35] Accordingly, the characters required a degree of complexity that Disney Animation had previously never achieved. [36] Journalist Edna Liliana Valencia Murillo was the Afro-Caribbean consultant and contributed greatly towards Félix, Dolores, and Antonio's designs. [37] According to Howard, certain characters' Afro–Latin hairstyles were essential. [38] Neysa and Lorelay Bové, the costume design lead and associate production designer respectively, hoped to represent the film's various communities well. Neysa requested Colombian consultants, which included an anthropologist and botanist. [37]

Isabella and Luisa are always trying to be helpful and feel the need to be help to get Abuela's love. But since they have gift's its not an issue and they avoid to do things wrong. which is understandable but the judgement that they have towards Mirabel, as wrong as it may feel, is spot on with siblings. what kind of bugs me are some of the changes that were made in general. some really iconic one-liners weren't put in (might be fine for others, but i was really missing one or two iconic sentences) and in some scenes, the meaning was changed altogether - for example isabela going for the candle before mirabel even starts walking; in the movie, mirabel begins running to the candle and isabela only then starts to move, which can be interpreted as her either trying to save the candle or mirabel, and i honestly think it's kind of sad that the book didn't leave room for interpretation there - which was pretty disappointing at times. a b c d Carey, Meredith (November 24, 2021).

Instead of having just Mirabel as a POV, we also get the points of view of her two older sisters, Isabela and Luisa. Isabela is seen as the perfect one: graceful, beautiful, and gifted with the ability to grow flowers; Luisa has super strength, and she works hard to serve the family and the people of the village. In the film, there are important scenes between the sisters and Mirabel, but seeing parts of the story through their eyes gives them more depth and makes me like them even more. Howard and Bush started to discuss Latin-American culture at length with Juan Rendon and Natalie Osma, who had previously worked with them on the making-of documentary Imagining Zootopia. [19] [21] Rendon and Osma both happened to be from Colombia and repeatedly drew upon their personal experiences with Colombian culture in their discussions, which caused Howard, Bush, and Miranda to focus their research on that country. [19] Rendon and Osma became the first two of several cultural experts hired by Disney Animation as consultants on the film, [19] who collectively formed what Disney called the "Colombian Cultural Trust".
