very subtle i have a very subtle image, and organic and not being able to use your face suddenly, you know, you can't do things the way you would normally and for animation everything has to be more and bigger i was away of that from the beginning but took a bit of practice. >> are there scenes you act out in the scene you are with another actor but there are scenes you are not there when shooting it like for example a scene with the witch was she always there doing the voices back and forth with you. >> to body was there. ever -- no body was there. ever. i met billy connelly once i was in los angeles for a session and he was in right before me doing his stuff it was just like in passing. >> when doing voice acting aspects these characters are not in the same room how are you as a director and producer how do you allow that character

to get emotionally engaged with another person. >> takes four years to make our films everything is meticulously made so spontaneity is not typically part of animation except in the recording studio we always record our dialogues before we do the animation we get actors, main thing we look for, in cast actors is to be a great actor but, ad lib ability that they can make the part their own. in the case of brave, especially, we got scottish born actors and actresses, kelly mcdonald, does the voice of meridia. >> i am meridia. >> i will be shooting for my own hand. >> we wanted her to reach back in her -- how she grew up as a teenager, as a child in glasgow scotland and say what is the slang you would use we wouldn't know about and she made it her

own. she would look at the script and say we wouldn't say it that way we would say it like this. >> brave is number one at the box office this weekend, no surprise taking in $67 million. not too bad what does kevin think of brave? he says the voice acting and individuals, very good, thumbs up there but the film falls off about 30 minutes into it, he says so he gave it 2.5 starts out of 5. ouch. coming up here on fox 5 morning news sunday, another huge crowd battle of the belt way a packed house on hand, camden yards, game 2 of the local rivalry, adam la roar sent one deep was it enough to carry the nats, sports breakfast coming your way next, time now 8:29 a.m. ♪
