Story Book A Very Merry Pooh Year Heffalump Movie Heffalump Halloween Movie Spring Time with Roo The Many Adventures Disney Classics: Complete Movie Box Set Over the years, many Disney films begin with this same tantalizing motif—a storybook, either live-action or animated, slowly opening and inviting us in. D23 took a spin through some of the most famous of these openings, and uncovered a few interesting facts along the way! Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs According to our friends over at the Walt Disney Archivesthis prop book not only still exists—a Disney Movie Collection; Snow White: A Special Disney Storybook Series, considering its age—but is also currently on tour in Japan as part of their Power of Princess exhibit. The English-language version of the book features a specially carved spine… while a second version of the book presumably used for international releases of the film features a Dutch cover! The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad This two-part film—featuring animated retellings of Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame, narrated by Basil Rathbone, and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving, narrated and sung by Bing Crosby—has two storybook openings, which pull us right into the wacky shenanigans. This tome features a leather cover with a suitably fancy metal latch. Fans of the gal in the glass slipper may remember that a prop storybook was also featured in the live-action Cinderella ; that book is titled Perrault Birds Tales a reference to author Charles Perrault and is also preserved in the Archives. Sleeping Beauty Seen in several Archives exhibits over the years, the prop book from the opening sequence of this film showcases beautifully intricate artwork—depicting the tale on which the film is based—and is attributed to Disney Legend Eyvind Earle. The Prince and the Pauper In this animated short that accompanied the film The Rescuers Down Under, Mickey Mouse takes on the classic story of silly switching, playing dual roles of the impoverished youth and the prince who discover they look exactly alike. Enchanted This film found Disney once again employing a unique mix of animation and live-action—so of course it warranted its very own storybook opening sequence! Winnie the Pooh Walt Disney Animation Studios revived the beloved Winnie the Pooh character for a new, traditionally animated film—inspired by two previously unadapted A. Disney Movie Collection; Snow White: A Special Disney Storybook Series stories and released in A large, open version of the Winnie the Pooh storybook was recreated for the Disney Winnie the Pooh exhibition that the Walt Disney Archives helped curate in Japan in Snow White | Disney Wiki | Fandom Snow White is a featured articlewhich means it has been identified as one of the best articles produced by the Disney Wiki community. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, please feel free to contribute. Snow White is the titular protagonist of Disney 's first animated feature-length film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. She is a young princess; the "Fairest One of All", whose beauty is defined by her inherent kindness and purity and not just by physical appearance. Shortly after finding love in a charming PrinceSnow White learns that her jealous stepmother, The Evil Queenis determined to kill her. Snow White forcibly runs away from home to escape the queen's wrath, but finds shelter in the cottage of seven dwarfs. Now a refugee, Snow White dreams of reuniting with her prince and living happily ever after. Snow White is the first member of the Disney Princess line-up. Her character provided the basis for later heroines in Disney fairy tales such as Cinderellaand Aurora from Sleeping Beauty. Many of Snow White's traits - such as her royal lineage, friendly relationship with animalsand propensity for singing - continue to inspire both heroes and heroines in Disney animations to this day. Snow White's mother died shortly after her birth. After some time, her father, the King, remarried a vain and cold-hearted queen. So, she dressed Snow White in rags and forced her to work as a scullery maid to try to quench her growing beauty. Each day, the Queen consulted her magic mirror asking, "Magic Mirror on the wall, who is the fairest one of all? Snow White may have been a maid, but she never complained when she worked and whenever she Disney Movie Collection; Snow White: A Special Disney Storybook Series sad she would always hum a tune to cheer herself up and her animal friends would visit. The people of the kingdom felt sorry for their princess when the Evil Queen made her a servant, but they could not rebel due to the Queen's power. The design and characterization of Snow White were influenced by both the heroine of traditional European romantic fairy tales and the popular Hollywood heroine. Early designs showing Snow White with blonde hair suggest Eugene Grasset's depiction of the goddess of spring in Le Printemps as another influence; like Disney's Snow White, Grasset's goddess is closely connected to nature, and, as in one of Grasset's studies for the piece, Snow White entertains animals with music. Snow White's design was supervised by Grim Natwickan animator who had previously developed and worked on Betty Boop at the Fleischer Studio. Early designs for the character resemble Betty Boop, and some appear to be caricatures of famous actresses such as Zasu Pits; however, Snow White's appearance, like the Queen's became less and less caricatured. For example, Hamilton Luske's first design for Snow White depicted her as a slightly awkward, gangly teenager. This design could easily have Disney Movie Collection; Snow White: A Special Disney Storybook Series animated without the use of live-action reference, but Walt Disney had a different idea in his mind; the character ultimately was designed to be older, and more realistic-looking. In order for Snow White to better relate onscreen to the Seven Dwarfs, however, it was decided that her head being slightly larger than normal. The ink and paint women felt that Snow White's black hair was too unnatural and harsh, so dry Disney Movie Collection; Snow White: A Special Disney Storybook Series wisps of light gray over the top of each cell. Marge Bell who would later become Marge Champion performed live-action reference for the animation of Snow White, directed by Hamilton Luske. When it was decided that Snow White should have a slightly larger head than normal, Bell was made to wear a football helmet to make her head appear larger. This was stopped after 5 minutes, as Bell found it impossible to perform ande-action reference while wearing the helmet. The scene in which Snow White kisses Grumpyand Grumpy's subsequent reaction, was inspired by a Disney Movie Collection; Snow White: A Special Disney Storybook Series by Albert Hurteras was the scene in which Snow White, after being poisoned, lies in a bed surrounded by the weeping dwarfs. For the latter, Walt Disney made reference in a story meeting to a then-recent film adaptation of Romeo and Julietsuggesting that light appears to shine from her as the dwarfs and Disney Movie Collection; Snow White: A Special Disney Storybook Series mourn around her. In this same story meeting, Dick Creedon suggested that the rain outside the cottage of the Seven Dwarfs be used to suggest tears, weeping for the princess. Snow White is well known for her kindness and optimism - both of which act as her greatest strengths, as they've guided her safely through the various hardships faced throughout her life.

    Animated Enchantment: A Psychoanalytic Exploration of the Enduring Popularity of Disney’s First Feature Films Howard Jacobs Queen Mary, University of London Thesis submitted for the qualification of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) March 2014 2 Declaration I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. I have received professional assistance with styling, especially in making the bibliography and footnotes consistent, from Ms Chris Steel. (http://www.chrissteel-editorial.com/) Howard Jacobs Date: March 2014 Copyright The images in the Figures in this thesis are from: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs © Walt Disney Productions; Ivan the Terrible Part I © Mosfilm; Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde © Paramount Pictures; Pinocchio © Walt Disney Productions; Dumbo © Walt Disney Productions; Bambi © Walt Disney Productions. For all other parts of the thesis, the author’s copyright is Attribution- NonCommercial-NoDerivs (CC BY-NC-ND) 3 Abstract In this thesis I explore reasons for the widespread and enduring popularity of Disney’s first feature-length films (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), Pinocchio (1940), Dumbo (1941) and Bambi (1942)). While acknowledging the historical, industrial and aesthetic features that have contributed to their success, my argument is that the continuing fascination of these films is in large part attributable to the manner in which they engage the spectator and evoke unconscious concerns about family cohesion, interpersonal conflicts and the death of parents. My investigation begins with an analysis of the films’ prefilmic provenance and narrative characteristics, placing an emphasis on the role of their narrative and extra-narrative components as embodying social, pedagogical and psychological meanings.

  • Freddie Mercury – the Man Behind the Music
    Freddie Mercury – The Man Behind the Music Submitted For: Music 1A: Psychology of Music (2016-17) Word Count: 1851 Introduction Ask any modern musician in the Western world and they are bound to know of Freddie Mercury – the man himself or any of the work he was involved in. As the frontman of the spectacular band, Queen, Mercury spent much of his life in the limelight and under the scrutiny of the public eye and ear. However, upon first listening, one is ignorant to the meaning of his music and the wisdom in the words of his songs, leading us to ask; Who was the man behind the music? There are a multitude of factors contributing to the formation of Mercury’s musical identity; his cultural heritage, education and even his sexuality. It is through exploration of these parts of the musician’s life, that we can determine what took the young Farrokh Bulsara and shaped him into the musical hero that is, Freddie Mercury. Childhood and Education On 5 September 1946, Farrokh Bulsara was born to parents Bomi and Jer, on the island of Zanzibar.1 From the age of eight, Farrokh attended the English boarding school, St. Peter’s near Bombay and began to show an interest in music at the same time in his life. His mother recalls that her son would ‘stack the singles to play constantly’ on the family’s record player, with any type of music he could find (mostly Indian music, and the odd Western record when they became available).2 Prompted by a letter of recommendation written by the headmaster at St Peter’s, the Bulsara family paid the extra fees to the school for Farrokh to receive piano lessons.
