The Director

The director in the statue is a generic 1920s/1930s film maker, not based on anyone in particular, especially not a young Walt Disney as some have claimed. It reflects the transition period whenLeia mais
The Director II

Jars of Color
21 de outubro de 2013, Estados Unidos ⋅ ⛅ 84 °F
This was, probably, the most interesting thing that I saw in Disney's Art of Animation. It's a wall of sealed jars that are filled with glowing colors that pulse and change. Watching this wall of hardLeia mais

Rosie's All-American
