Princess Tiana from Disney's "The Princess and the Frog" might have gotten her regal voice from Anika Noni Rose, but she got her royal moves from Danielle Moné Truitt, who worked as the "video reference" for the animated character. "I did all the body movements and facial references for the cartoon," Truitt said. "I got dressed in costume, and they videotaped me doing the scenes that were going to be in the film. The animators are amazing, but the video reference helps them bring the characters to life and give the cartoons more of a realistic appearance."
