108. Snow White History - Part 1 - Snow White Stories You've Never Heard
Description
Who was Snow White's mother? And what other critical information is missing from the feature film?
In this episode of Distory, we start a new series on the history of the Snow White attractions of the Disney parks. But before we can discuss the rides, we have to pay homage to the first-ever full-length feature animation that made it all possible: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In this episode, we take a journey back in time to learn why Snow White was first, what story elements you might have missed without more context, some missing scenes, and more than a few rejected dwarf names. We discuss the innovative use of rotoscoping and the multiplane camera and hear from the animators themselves about their experience working on the film. We end this episode with some inspiring words from Walt Disney himself and spend a few moments reflecting on the importance of not giving up even when others don’t believe in your dream.
