iPad Pro In The Wild #2

Apple is doing the round with the new iPad Pro. After a stop at Pixar, they moved to their good friends at Disney.

The testing seemingly went well for Disney. “Let’s order a bunch,” product manager Paul Hildebrandt said at the end of a Periscope stream showcasing the device. In a separate Periscope steam, Disney animators Jeff Ranjo and Jeremy Spears used the iPad Pro to draw caricatures of each other. You can view the replay of that process at the links below.
 
Disney’s team of designers tested the iPad Pro with illustration apps like Pro Create and FiftyThree’s popular Paper, both of which have already been optimized for the iPad Pro and Apple Pencil.

The results once again was extremely positive. Be sure to check out the Periscope session where you can see the device in actual operation, with a specific focus on the Pencil and its good responsiveness.

One fun aspect of the Periscope video: the Disney artist being surprised by the fact that the Pencil is not bundled with the iPad Pro, but it’s a separate $99 purchase.
