 Enchanted is the first feature @-@ length Disney live @-@ action / traditional animation hybrid since Disney 's Who Framed Roger Rabbit in 1988 , though the traditionally animated characters do not interact in the live @-@ action environment in the same method as they did in Roger Rabbit ; however , there are some scenes where live @-@ action characters share the screen with two @-@ dimensional animated characters , for example , a live @-@ action Nathaniel communicating with a cel @-@ drawn Narissa , who is in a cooking pot . The film uses two aspect ratios ; it begins in 2 @.@ 35 : 1 when the Walt Disney Pictures logo and Enchanted storybook are shown , and then switches to a smaller 1 @.@ 85 : 1 aspect ratio for the first animated sequence . The film switches back to 2 @.@ 35 : 1 when it becomes live @-@ action and never switches back , even for the remainder of the cartoon sequences . When this movie was aired on televised networks , the beginning of the movie ( minus the logo and opening credits ) was shown in standard definition ; the remainder of the movie was shown in high definition when it becomes live @-@ action . Lima oversaw the direction of both the live @-@ action and animation sequences , which were being produced at the same time . Enchanted took almost two years to complete . The animation took about a year to finish while the live @-@ action scenes , which commenced filming on location in New York City during the summer of 2006 and were completed during the animation process , were shot in 72 days .
