@tnb35 That is very true, that he got a lot of the credit for things he didn't do but I don't believe that Ub lwerks came up with the Mickey mouse sketches.
Over the years there has been much debate over the exact role Walt Disney played. In truth there was scarcely a Disney creation that he did not motivate or to which he did not bring his own particular genius.
It can be argued that without the talents of those he employed, none of his company's accomplishments would have been achieved; but without his vision and stimulation and, above all, his courage in taking risks, none of them would have been initiated or sustained.
thanks! this has been really useful for assembling a presentation on the pioneers of animation for my class on monday! your brief summary was a lot more useful than trying to read several books over the weekend!

Disney needs to go back to 2D. And so should many other studios. There's too much 3D and not enough 2D these days.

Koko was the first movie with sound a soundtrack, while Steamboat Willie was the first with animation syncronised to the music.

@phisoluvdje
nope
every body know that ub Iwerks was the creative brain behind the early disney cartoons
Walt Disney was just a good businessman, who knew to find good artist and get very rich of their hard work, and too get all the credit.
but ask any animation historian (there aren't so many) Walt Disney was evil incarnate. the animators where the real creators.
