Né en 1901, Walter Elias Disney est peut-être l'artiste le plus influent du 20ème siècle. Le papa de Mickey était un visionnaire à l'imagination sans borne d'un côté, et un homme d'affaires sans pitié de l'autre. Résultat, il est à l'origine du premier groupe de divertissement monde. Même si le grand public connait beaucoup de choses sur Walt Disney, il y a peut-être une information étonnante qui a pu vous échapper.

Hoy viajaremos a la animada vida de Walter Elias Disney, al que todavía pueden visitar en la sección de congelados del Cotsco. El pequeño Walter nació el 5 de diciembre de 1901 en…Illinois, ohhhhhh. No nació en 🎶Mojaaaaaca, galopa y corta el viento🎶, No, nació en Chicago, el Benidorm de ellos. Allí se crió con su 4 hermanos, su madre Flora y su padre, Elias Disney, que vivía amargao porque cada vez que abría un negocio le duraba menos que un terrorista a Steven Seagal. El padre de Walt probó suerte una vez más comprando una granja en Missouri, pero los dos hijos mayores le dijeron que iba a recoger lo nabos su prima la de Albacete y se volvieron a Chicago. Así que allí se quedó Walter dibujando animalillos y aguantando el menosprecio de su padre, que el rancio no se reía ni con Pepe Da Rosa. En 1909 Elias contrajo fiebre tifoideas y tuvo que vender la granja, mudándose toda la familia a Kansas City, pero no durarían mucho porque allí no había quien aparcara. 5 años después, su otro hermano, Roy, también se fue de casa porque el pare lo tenía más explotao que un plastiquito de burbujas. Al final lo que quedaba de familia se mudó otra vez a Chicago. Como no sería de jartible Elias Disney que Walt, a los 17 años, falsificó su partida de nacimiento pa combatir como soldado en la Primera Guerra Mundial. Esa casa en Acción de Gracias tenía que ser como un salón de la Super Nany. El padre doraba el pavo a cashetás. A los 20 años ya tenía cara de saberse la vida del podólogo y un bigotito con el que nadie sospecharía nunca que era una mihita nazi. Cosa que gustó en la agencia de publicidad donde lo contrataron y donde conocería a Ubbe (con b) Iwerks, un talentoso dibujante con el que montó más empresas que Ruíz-Mateos con Jiménez de Tejada. Entre los dos montarían un modesto estudio en el único sitio que te garantiza el éxito en Norteamérica: el garaje de su casa. Quebraron más veces que la zapatería Mary Paz, pero Walt siempre se las ingeniaba para sacar el negocio adelante. En el 23 aterrizó en Hollywood, en el 25 se casó y en el 26 le cambió el nombre a la empresa por Walt Disney Studio, porque en los años 20 de antes te daba tiempo de hacer más cosas. Centrado totalmente ya en su empresa, a Walt se le ocurrió un nuevo personaje en el autobús de Sevilla a Sanlúcar: un ratón pánfilo, apolítico y asexuado al que llamó Mortimer. Su mujer, que se veía otra vez esperando a que las del Mercadona pusieran las pegatinas de bajada de precio, le dijo que ella de dibujo no sabía pero que había que tener algo mu malo agarrao en el pechito para ponerle Mortimer a algo. Y así nació Mickey Mouse. En 1937 estrenó su primer largometraje: Blancanieves y los 7 enanitos, que aunque fue todo un éxito en taquilla le dejó endeudao hasta las orejas porque Disney era mu de pedir el dinero a Cetelem. Luego vendrían Pinocho y Fantasía, que recaudaron menos que Waterworld, desastre que se solucionaría más tarde con Dumbo y Bambi. En los años 40, la factoría Disney contaba con un complejo de 20 edificios y 2000 empleados que cobraban menos que los repartidores de Glovo. Tampoco podían tener sindicato, porque eso era de comunistas y a él lo que le gustaba eran lostraterrestre, los nasi y la gente mu blanca. Hasta que llegó un Yorlando Dyaz que le dijo “¿que no nos dejas tener sindicato? Te digo yo que sí” Y se pusieron en huelga un año, que ya tenía que pagar poco er gashó pa que la gente esté un año en huelga por iniciativa propia. También se dedicó a la caza de brujas dando chivatazos al FBI y a echar más humo que el fumador de Expediente X, aunque no hay fotos de Disney fumando porque no quería ser una mala influencia TAN EVIDENTE para los niños; Él era más de mensajes subliminales. Ganó 26 premios Oscar y más dinero que el del video comunitario, pero despidió a 400 empleados para cumplir con el acuerdo de subida salarial del 25% de los dibujantes, porque Disney era bondad y generosidad. Finalmente, el 15 de diciembre de 1966, lo metería la mujé en el cajón al lao de las croquetas de puchero, aunque ustedes siempre podrán recordarlo cuando vean una película de Steaven Seagal o se compren unas babuchas en la zapatería Mary Paz.

Creatives Are The Worst

There are few creatives in the history of the world who have a legacy as enduring as Walter Elias Disney. His name has become synonymous with animation, entertainment, imagination, and magic, and it remains attached to what is arguably the most popular entertainment brand in the entire world. From iconic animated characters like Mickey Mouse to theme parks, films, and so much more, his creations have become a cornerstone of American culture. Many people view his public persona as a sort of kind and generous uncle, but accusations of antisemitism and racial insensitivity in his work have us asking the question: Is Walt Disney the worst?

There's really no secret about our approach. We keep moving forward—opening up new doors and doing new things—because we're curious. And curiosity keeps leading us down new paths. We're always exploring and experimenting. At WED, we call it Imagineering—the blending of creative imagination with technical know-how.—Walt DisneyLillian Disney could sense something big brewing in early 1952. It was one of those times, she would say, when “Walt's imagination was going to take off and go into the wild blue yonder and everything will explode.” Walt began liquidating long-held family assets, borrowing against his life insurance policy, selling properties, and even selling the rights to his own name. Walt Disney was planning something new—he was planning to kick down the walls dividing his movies and real life.When Disney's children were very young, he'd tried to take them to places where their imaginations could run wild. But every carnival or fair seemed to be dirty, poorly run, and filled with vice. Walt wanted to create a place where people could take their family and forget the concerns of the everyday world—a place beautiful, safe, and filled with endless wonder. So at about the same time that he had started selling assets and conserving his capital, he pulled aside one of his art directors and had him begin working on concept sketches for a new kind of amusement park. The sketches started to illustrate the vision he had in his head, a utopian world where guests would enter a fairytale world.Ever since his early days as a Kansas City artist and animator, Walt had a unique belief in the power of his thoughts. As time went on, he became expert at manifesting his dreams into physical forms, often creating the necessary technology as he went. But nothing prepared him for the challenge of manifesting Disneyland—taking the imaginary world of his movies and making it literally concrete. Disneyland would transport visitors into a captivating three-dimensional story, a sprawling material incarnation of a wonderland that began as a vision, then lived on screens.Disney knew little about the experiential side of entertainment; his expertise and success was in storytelling through the mediums of animation, film, and television. To make his dream world a reality, Disney chose some of the studio's most talented individuals, took a small building on the Disney lot, and formed a new company, WED Enterprises—an acronym for Walter Elias Disney. This interdisciplinary dream team would be tasked with creating the design, development, and construction of Disneyland—not only doing something that none of them had done before, but that no one had done before. They represented an extraordinary group of storytellers, engineers, animators, contractors, directors, writers, artists, set designers, lighting designers, sound engineers, and many others. WED employees would interpret the Disney stories by building beautiful sets and giving them the interactivity and resilience to wow thousands of guests daily.The plans for the 160-acre site called for 5,000 cubic yards of concrete and a million square feet of asphalt. The designs included a replica of an 1800s main street, manmade riverbeds for steamboats and jungle cruises, a mile of railroad tracks, and a full-scale Bavarian castle. Walt was at the construction site pushing the WED team every day, giving his attention to every detail, every blade of grass, every leaf on every tree. As former Disney executive vice president and Imagineer Marty Sklar remembers, “The thing we worked so hard to avoid is letting people out of the story with discordant details…. Even the trash cans in the park are for that particular story or theme.” The attention to detail and level of execution were extraordinary.

We're killing two films with one podcast this week on We Want The D, but not by doing an original and a remake the way we have in the past. This time, we're looking at SALUDOS AMIGOS, a four-movie package film from the early 1940s; and the 2008 documentary Disney made about the making of said package film, WALT & EL GRUPO. One wouldn't necessarily think the latter deserves the former, but it turns out the documentary is quite illuminating as to just why Disney made not one, but two movies of seemingly disconnected, cute but often generic short films set in South America. Plus is gives Vicky, Nolan and Jill an excuse to dive back into the psychology of Walter Elias Disney, one of our hosts' favourite pastimes.

Walt Disney====================================Esta semana nossa coluna homenageia o homem que foi responsável pela invenção de gêneros cinematográficos, criou personagens ícones da cultura mundial além de ser o cofundador da maior empresa de entretenimento do mundo. Esta semana a coluna faz uma homenagem ao norte-americano, Walt Disney.Walter Elias Disney, conhecido e popularizado como Walt Disney, nasceu dia 5 de dezembro de 1901, há 118 anos, na cidade de Chicago e foi um animador, cineasta, diretor, roteirista, dublador, empreendedor e produtor cinematográfico.Tornou-se mundialmente conhecido por ser o pioneiro do ramo da animação tendo produzido o primeiro longa-metragem de animação Branca de Neve e os Sete Anões (1937) além de ser o criador de personagens icônicos como Mickey e Pato Donald.Walt Disney é filho do empreiteiro Elias Disney e da professora Flora Call Disney. Com 7 anos já revelava talento para o desenho. Com 14 anos ingressou no Kansas City Art Institute. Com 16 anos, entrou para a Cruz Vermelha, onde foi motorista de ambulância. Com 18 anos retornou para Kansas City e iniciou sua carreira de cartunista de propaganda e depois passou a produzir filmes publicitários.Por volta de 1923, deixou Kansas City e partiu para Hollywood, levando um filme feito com a técnica de desenho animado e atores reais. Junto com o irmão montou uma produtora e ofereceu seus filmes à distribuidora M. J. Winkler. Produziu "Alice" e em seguida "O Coelho Oswald”. Esta empresa é a gênese da atual maior empresa de entretenimento do mundo, a Walt Disney Company.Em 1925, casou-se com Lillian Bounds, uma de suas primeiras funcionárias. Em 1927 criou o camundongo, que foi batizado por sua esposa, com o nome de "Mickey Mouse", que se tornaria um dos maiores sucessos de sua produtora. Em 1928, lançou Steamboat Willie, o primeiro desenho com som da história. Nos anos seguintes, para contracenar com o Mickey Mouse, Walt Disney criou as personagens "Pato Donald", o "Pateta" e o "Pluto”. Em 1932, recebeu seu primeiro Oscar, com o filme "Flowers and Trees”. Walt Disney já havia criado curtas-metragens e animações, mas em 1935 divulgou sua ideia revolucionária de criar uma nova forma de arte. No início foi considerado louco, pois Hollywood não acreditava que adultos pagariam para assistir à uma animação. Ignorando as críticas e com o apoio de seu irmão Roy, hipotecou vários bens e pegou empréstimo bancário para realizar seu sonho. Foram investidos mais de um milhão de dólares para a criação do longa-metragem, em plena Grande Depressão americana. A ousadia do visionário, Walt Disney mudou a história do cinema mundial, elevando a animação à categoria de arte. Com o lucro do filme, Disney construiu um estúdio, dando sequência a outras produções e iniciando um império de entretenimento, que além de produzir dezenas de filmes e animações expandiu-se num conglomerado que inclui parques temáticos, brinquedos, jogos e livros com centenas de personagens. Outros longas vieram na sequência, entre eles, "Pinóquio", "Fantasia”, “Bambi" e Cinderela. Após deixar de atuar exclusivamente com animações, a Disney expandiu seus negócios para o teatro, parques temáticos, música, rádio e mídia online. Hoje, a The Walt Disney Company opera redes de televisão pagas e tem como subsidiárias empresas como Lucasfilm, Marvel Entertainment, Pixar, ABC e Fox. De acordo com a Walt Disney, seu principal objetivo é "tornar as pessoas felizes". Disney e sua equipe sempre diziam, à época do lançamento revolucionário de Branca de Neve que sabia que todas as pessoas foram crianças um dia. Hoje, sua empresa, além de povoar o imaginário do mundo inteiro, tem um valor de mercado de cerca de 155 bilhões de dólares, com ativos de 96 bilhões e faturando cerca de 55 bilhões de dólares por ano. Há dezenas de biografias e filmes sobre Disney e seu legado cultural impressionante. Eu recomendo os filmes Walt antes do Disney, de 2015 que conta a saga e os obstáculos enfrentados na criação de suas obras e o livro Walt Disney. O Triunfo da Imaginação Americana de Neal Gabler, um petardo de quase 800 páginas sobre a vida de Walt Disney.Walt Disney é a pessoa que venceu o maior número de Óscars na história, sendo 22 prêmios e 59 indicações. Disney faleceu dia 15 de dezembro de 1966 de câncer de pulmão em Burbank, Califórnia. Seu corpo foi cremado e suas cinzas estão no Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Glendale. Morreu antes da inauguração de um de seus últimos sonhos, o parque Walt Disney World, na Flórida, que foi inaugurado em 1971.

It’s been more than 50 years since Walter Elias Disney departed for the great amusement park in the sky, yet his legacy consistently inspires new generations of business owners and creators. Michael Goldsby and Rob Mathews, two professors of entrepreneurship at Ball Street University, have encapsulated Disney’s magic rules of success into a must-read book, Entrepreneurship the Disney Way. As Goldsby tells host and award-winning journalist Dean Rotbart, two traits that Disney embodied that to this day are hard-wired into The Walt Disney Company are an obsessive commitment to product quality and a refusal to stop innovating and creating.  For businesses owners who wish upon a star that they could emulate the success of the Disney and the Magic Kingdom, Goldsby says the pixie dust is simple: Just ask yourself time and again, “What would Walt do?” Photo: Michael Goldsby, Ball State UniversityPosted: September 2, 2019Monday Morning Run Time: 42 minutes 42 seconds

Imagine the world without Walt Disney. A world where his beloved characters and songs never shaped your dreams, where magic and visual storytelling never sparked your imagination, and where no whimsical theme parks ever delighted your childhood fantasies. Walt Disney and his works are nothing less than legendary. From pioneering animations to spellbinding theme parks, his unparalleled vision continues to inspire generation after generation. People of all ages all around the world have been touched by Walt Disney's legacy – which didn't come easily for this innovative animator and persistent entrepreneur. Walt Disney's life story shows no traces of dumb luck or free passes. Instead, it begins with a hard-working paperboy and ends with a humble film producer, who marked history once again while daydreaming on a park bench. Top Walt Disney Quotes to Awaken the Dreamer in You All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them. That's the real trouble with the world. Too many people grow up. Early life with a love for art On December 5th, 1901, Walter Elias Disney was born in a small neighborhood in Chicago. He was one of five children of Irish, Canadian, German, and American descent. walt-disney-as-a-young-child Image: Walt Disney at the age of 1. Credit: History.com When Walt was four years old, his family moved to Marceline, Missouri, where his artistic talent was sparked by a neighborhood doctor who asked him to draw his horse. Young Walt instantly fell in love with art and intently developed his skills by copying the cartoons in his father's newspaper. At seven years old, Walt decided to help his struggling family by selling his drawings to neighbors and family friends. At school, Walt Disney was rather inattentive. His teachers would often catch him daydreaming or doodling pictures of animals and nature. As he grew older, he picked up a knack for storytelling and would tell his classmates outlandish tales while illustrating on the chalkboard. At ten years old, Walt and his family moved to Kansas City where his uncle employed him to sell snacks and newspapers along the railroad. Being amongst trains all summer induced Walt with a fascination for them, a passion which can still be seen in his theme parks today. During the rest of the year, Walt would wake up at 4:30 every morning with his brother Roy to deliver the newspaper before school. They would make another paper round after school as well. The job was exhausting and Walt would often fall asleep in class, but he continued his paper route for more than six years to help his family. The Army and a short-lived business Walt Disney attended McKinley High School back in Chicago, where he drew patriotic pictures about WWI for the school newspaper. At night, he took illustration courses at the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts to broaden his skills. At 16, a shy yet determined Walt Disney dropped out of high school and attempted to join the Army in their fight against the Germans. But he was rejected since he was still under the minimum age of 17. Nevertheless, Walt was insistent on joining, and so he tried again – this time enlisting for the Red Cross with a forged birth certificate. He was accepted and soon shipped to France where he spent the following year driving an ambulance. For all the blood and grisly injuries Walt would face on a daily basis, he found comfort in dreaming up new cartoon characters for his future career as an artist. In his downtime, Walt would give life to his unrelenting imagination by drawing on the side of his ambulance, covering it with cartoons from stern to stern. Some of his work was even published in the army newspaper. After his time in the Army had ended, Walt Disney returned to Kansas City at 18 years old with the goal of becoming a newspaper artist. His brother, Roy, got him a job at the Pesmen-Rubin Art Studio, where he met Ub Iwerks, a fellow cartoonist there. ub-iwerks-and-walt-disney-posing-for-a-photo Image: Walt Disney and Ub Werk. Credit: Inspiration X Not even a year had passed when a sharp decline in revenue pushed Walt Disney out of the job, the justification being “he lacked imagination”. This would have discouraged many aspiring artists, but not Walt Disney. With unwavering optimism and the support of his new friend Ub, Walt opened his very first business. Together, they formed Iwerks-Disney Commercial Artists. Sadly, they failed to attract enough customers and the business went under after only a month. Walt was dismayed, but far from ready to quit on his dream. All of my obstacles have strengthened me. You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you – Walt Disney First commercial success and bankruptcy As determined as Walt Disney was to achieve his goals, no amount of belief was going to get him anywhere without the money to fund it. So he got a job at the Kansas City Film Ad Company, where he produced short films using cutout animation. Meanwhile, at home, Walt began to experiment with a different animation technique using a borrowed camera and book. Later on, he tried to convince the ad agency to adopt this new technique – but was unsuccessful. the-story-of-the-life-of-walt-disney Image: Walt Disney and his camera. Credit: TIME Walt Disney soon decided it was time to quit talking and start doing, so he left the agency and opened his second business. Walt, Ub and a handful of animators would work long hours to produce short cartoons called Laugh-O-Grams. These seven-minute animations of modernized fairytales were shown at the local theater, attracting enough attention and popularity to keep their business afloat. Although funding soon began to decline, which pushed Walt Disney to work on the story of a live-action girl called Alice exploring an animated wonderland. Before he could finish it, his company went bankrupt and he was, once again, left with close to nothing. At 22 years old and already with two failed business ventures under his belt, Walt felt the only way he would succeed is if he believed in his dream implicitly and unquestionably. He then packed his suitcase – never leaving behind his favorite canned chili – and made the trip to Hollywood. A whole new chapter of his life was about to begin. A stolen rabbit and an optimistic mouse Walt met up with his brother, Roy, who had just overcome tuberculosis. They pooled their money to set up shop in their uncle's garage in Hollywood. There, Walt dogged studios day after day in an effort to sell his Alice in Cartoonland series. He was rejected time and time again, until he heard from Margaret J. Winkler, a New York cartoon distributor looking for a fresh series. Walt and Roy were equally ecstatic and moved their operation to a rented room at the back of a real estate office. Walt took charge of animation while Roy operated a second-hand camera. They then hired two girls to ink and paint the celluloids. The rental was small and they lacked employees, but the front door proudly read “Disney Bros. Studio”, and that's all the incentive Walt needed. Walt Disney's series on Alice was well-received, which allowed the studio to hire more animators. His first hires included his friend Ub Iwerks and an inker who Walt would later marry. Their studio went on to create more animated shorts, and later gave life to a chipper, venturesome character called Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. oswald-the-lucky-rabbit-by-walt-disney Image: Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. Credit: Inverse Things were going seemingly well for the studio. Although five years later, Walt attempted to negotiate a higher fee for the Oswald series, only to find their distributor actually wanted to reduce their fee. It turned out that Winkler and her husband had poached Walt's best employees and made them their own. He also discovered that they had stolen the rights to Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. He was now faced with the ultimatum of accepting a reduced fee for his work or leaving the studio. Walt chose to leave, along with his loyal animator Ub. Now at 27 years old, a disillusioned Walt Disney stared blankly out the window while on a train to Hollywood. Disaster seemed right around the corner for his company, but an idea was forming in his restless mind. Walt dug around for his notepad and fervently sketched his idea on paper. The result was Mortimer the Mouse, later baptized as “Mickey” by Walt's wife. This character was special. He was more human, adventurous, and hugely optimistic – much like Walt Disney himself. He rushed his rather bad sketch over to Ub, who refined Mickey's appearance while Walt worked on defining his character. Walt's team was on board with this new cartoon, but would the audience like him? Snow White and the “ruin of Disney” Mickey Mouse first appeared in Plane Crazy and The Gallopin' Gaucho, two silent films which failed to find distribution. But Walt was used to failure by now and knew better than to roll over. He and his team decided to integrate syncronized sound into a third short, called Steamboat Willie. With Ub in charge of animation and Walt lending his own voice as Mickey's – the first ever sound cartoon hit the NY Colon Theater in 1928. It became an instant sensation. The reviews were beyond glowing and plans of Mickey merchandise began to bloom. the-original-mickey-mouse Image: Mickey Mouse cartoons. Credit: Cartoon Brew Soon enough, film studios began to line up with all sorts of deals for Walt. From experience, he never sold the rights to his prized Mickey. Along with his passionate team, Walt formed Disney Studios and went on to create a series of sound cartoons. Gradually, their humorous animations and lovable characters flickered across televisions all over the country. Six years and many successful animations later, Walt Disney continued to push the limits of animation by announcing his first full-length feature film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Everyone thought it was a terrible idea. His wife and brother tried to talk him out of it, but Walt took out multiple bank loans and spent the next three years producing his vision. His very own team thought the film would “ruin Disney Studios”. Yet Walt Disney persevered, and in 1937, the film became the most successful motion picture of the year. It won dozens of awards and turned enough profit to pay off every bank loan and then some. Materializing magic and creating a legacy For years onward, Disney Studios completed a string of popular animated films and introduced countless iconic characters. But Walt was a well-known ‘workaholic dreamer' and his mind was brimming with even more ambitious ideas. On one particular Saturday with his daughters, Walt sat on a park bench eating peanuts while his girls played on the merry-go-round. As he watched them, he began to daydream of a place where parents and children could have fun together. His plans for a theme park began to hatch. It would be unlike any other, where people of all ages could explore and revel in fantastical experiences. disneyland-vintage-photo Image: Disneyland – vintage photo. Credit: Business Insider In 1954, the first Disneyland opened its doors to thousands of awaiting public. Despite the counterfeit tickets and abounding technical difficulties, Disneyland was an instant success and became known as a truly magical place. Now over 50 years old, Walt Disney had finally made his wildest dreams come true. His animation companies were flourishing, his characters were loved by many, and his productions were crossing borders into other countries. He had successfully transformed the entertainment industry and delighted people of all ages with his extraordinary vision. It wasn't long before Walt began plans for a new theme park. Sadly, before construction was complete, his life-long habit of chain-smoking had finally caught up with him. In 1966, Walt Disney passed away from lung cancer. Although his unfinished venture was not lost. His brother Roy continued working on the theme park which opened in 1971, under the name Walt Disney World. Regardless of how many years have passed since his death, Walt Disney continues to live on as a central figure in the history of animation. Although his reputation has changed over the years, he remains known as a national treasure for the U.S. and a cultural influencer worldwide. Thanks to his vision and unfailing pursuit of his dreams, Walt's legacy now transcends generations with memorable characters and influential films. His impressive record of 22 Academy Awards is one that has yet to be beaten. If Walt Disney were alive today, he would warmly reassure you that – from experience – there is no direct path to success. That your accomplishments depend almost solely on your dedication and willingness to persevere. He would also tell you that sometimes, the key lies within your most unexpected daydreams. If you can dream it, you can do it.

Descubre en esta completísima biografía de Walter Elias Disney, todo sobre la vida de este gran genio. Desde su nacimiento el 5 de diciembre de 1901, hasta la primavera de 1926 cuando cambiaron el nombre de su empresa, que pasó a llamarse Walt Disney Studio... Desde su gran crisis de salud de 1931 debida a su adicción al trabajo, hasta sus primeras Sinfonías tontas de 1932. Desde el nacimiento del pato Donald en 1934, hasta su primer largometraje de dibujos animados, primero también de la historia del cine, titulado Blancanieves y los siete enanitos realizado en 1937, que dejó a Disney endeudado hasta 1961 por culpa de la amortización de los créditos que tuvo que pedir, ya que el presupuesto inicial de 500.000 dólares de la película había acabado triplicándose. En Blancanieves y los siete enanitos se utilizó por primera vez la cámara multiplano, capaz de sugerir profundidad de campo gracias a un ingenioso sistema de superposición de cinco láminas filmadas en un mismo plano para simular lejanía, y un nuevo sistema de technicolor. La película fue el primer ejemplo de que el cine de animación de la escuela Disney tenía un sólido procedimiento narrativo, en el que los personajes humanos eran descritos a partir de la «mirada» de los animales humanizados o de los seres fantásticos. También quedó patente en el filme el gusto de Disney por lo tenebroso y su estilo de sugerir más que de mostrar abiertamente el terror. Pinocho de 1940, considerada como una de las piezas maestras del cine de animación por los críticos y en la que se invirtieron 2.600.000 dólares, fue un desastre comercial. Lo mismo sucedió con Fantasía (1940), que costó 2.300.000 dólares. Considerada una obra maestra por unos y una insultante caricatura de la música clásica por otros. Estos fracasos comerciales abrieron una importante brecha económica en la empresa, paliada poco después por los éxitos consecutivos de Dumbo (1941) y Bambi (1942). Disney exigía un alto nivel de creatividad y producción a cambio de salarios muy bajos, aunque nunca reparó en gastos a la hora de hacer sus películas y siempre llevó personalmente una vida privada sin lujos ni ostentaciones. El 10 de noviembre de 1940 empezó a colaborar con el FBI. En 1941, un sindicato de ilustradores recién creado en su compañía amenazó al «Mago de Burbank» con ir a la huelga en demanda de mejores salarios. El 29 de mayo de aquel año, los estudios Disney quedaron casi paralizados por una huelga en la que participaron la mayoría de los trabajadores y que duró todo un año. Disney recibió una interesante propuesta de Howard Hughes: un crédito sin intereses de un millón de dólares a cambio de su ayuda en un terreno (el sector cinematográfico) que el multimillonario tejano no conocía y en el que quería invertir. Con aquel dinero, Disney puso en marcha 18 nuevos proyectos, entre ellos Cenicienta (1950), Alicia en el país de las maravillas (1951) y Peter Pan (1953). En 1953, después de ganar un nuevo Oscar al mejor documental con El desierto viviente, inició conversaciones con la cadena televisiva ABC para ceder la emisión de sus películas al nuevo invento. A diferencia de otros productores de Hollywood, que la consideraban una amenaza, Disney creyó que la televisión era un excelente medio de difundir sus productos. Un año después inició la realización de filmes específicamente para televisión, la parte de su producción artística más denostada por los críticos. Críticas que también le lloverían años después con Mary Poppins (1964), su primer largometraje con sólo actores reales. Pero a Disney no le importaron, porque esas películas le daban el dinero que necesitaba para hacer realidad un proyecto que acariciaba desde hacía tiempo: construir un enorme parque de atracciones basado en sus personajes. Disneyland, que abrió sus puertas el 17 de julio de 1955 en Anaheim, California. Este parque, con una extensión de 120 hectáreas, costó 17 millones de dólares. Multimillonario y galardonado con veintinueve Oscars, en la década de los sesenta se había consolidado como uno de los personajes más conocidos y queridos de todo el mundo, pero su salud flaqueaba, y todo su imperio entró en una lucha por la sucesión. Fumador empedernido y aficionado al alcohol, murió el 15 de diciembre de 1966 en Los Ángeles, California, víctima de un cáncer de pulmón, después de haber supervisado los esbozos de Disney World, parque temático al estilo de Disneyland pero más enfocado hacia los adultos, que abriría sus puertas en 1971 en Orlando, Florida (en 1983, la compañía inauguró en Japón el Tokio Disneyland y en 1992 abrió sus puertas el Euro Disney de París). Con el fallecimiento de Disney, entraba en la leyenda uno de los nombres fundamentales de la cultura popular del siglo XX. Con variada fortuna, tratarían de sustituirle figuras tan dispares como su hermano Roy O. Disney, su sobrino Roy E. Disney y su yerno Ron Miller. Pero sólo el productor ejecutivo Michael Eisner demostró ser un digno sucesor suyo. Biografía extraída de biografiasyvidas.com Pero existe una biografía, escrita en 2001 por Marc Eliot, titulada "Walt Disney, el príncipe oscuro de Hollywood", publicada en Estados Unidos, donde relata el lado oscuro del famoso productor. En este libro, desmonta capitulo a capitulo el mito del Walt Disney. Marc asegura entre otras muchas cosas que el productor de cine era alcohólico, un neurótico cazacomunistas, y que se atribuyó la creación de Mickey Mouse. También indica que Walt, fue agente del FBI y simpatizante de los nazis. Se cree que su verdadero nombre de Walt Disney es José Guirao, hijo de una casquivana española que se refugió en Estados Unidos. Walt participó en la producción de Mickey Mouse pero no fue su creador, su verdadero autor fue Ub Iwerks, considerado históricamente uno de los mayores talentos de la compañía. El libro de Marc "Walt Disney, el príncipe oscuro de Hollywood", ha sido objeto de indignación, malestar e incredulidad por parte de los admiradores del creador de sueños, y de los herederos. Una de sus hijas, Diane Disney Miller dijo: "Considero este libro -que irónicamente se entrega a la fantasía más de lo que mi padre hizo- un asesinato de un gran hombre que llevó diversión a la gente alrededor del mundo". Para Disney, se había convertido en una obsesión tratar de establecer dónde y cuándo había nacido y quién era su verdadero padre. A los 16 años había recibido un certificado de nacimiento de la oficina de registro de Chicago en el que se le informaba que en la fecha de nacimiento que suministraba -diciembre 5 de 1901- no aparecía ningún Walt Disney. Por último, tras la muerte de Walt Disney se difundió un rumor que ha llegado hasta nuestros días, todavía son muchos los que creen que Disney continúa criogenizado, con las constantes vitales suspendidas, a la espera de poder despertar y que los nuevos avances médicos puedan hacer que vuelva a la vida. Pero por desgracia, esto no es más que una leyenda urbana extendida en el tiempo, ya que el cadáver Disney fue incinerado por deseo expreso de sus familiares.

En el capítulo de hoy, Héctor, nos habla sobre el temor del emprendedor y la lucha interna de evitar el fracaso. Nos enumera algunas de las causas que generar terror al emprender: Perder nuestro dinero invirtiendo en un pozo sin fin. Y es que no es fácil ver cómo nuestros ahorros van colándose por un desagüe sin obtener resultados esperados.  Tener incertidumbres sobre si la idea tendrá futuro. Contrasta tus ideas siguiendo un sencillos pasos que vimos en el podcast anterior.  Tomar malas decisiones al elegirlas.  Dejar un empleo “seguro”.  Arrastrar a otras personas que queremos a un precipicio. Y es que debemos de ver el fracaso como una oportunidad de intento y no como un desastre. La mentalidad europea fomenta el error como un fracaso estrepitoso, mientras que en América forma parte del proceso de la vida de cualquier persona. Walter Elias Disney, más conocido como Walt Disney, !fue despedido del periódico donde trabajaba por falta de creatividad! Lejos de frustrar sus ansias creativas, continuó delante y apostó por su famoso Mickey Mouse pero necesitaba conseguir que un banco le financiara los 15.000 dolares que necesitaba. 305 intentos le costó hasta que logró el dinero. Como él decía, “Todos nuestros sueños pueden convertirse en realidad si tenemos la valentía de perseguirlos.” ¿Os imagináis teniendo que visitar tantos bancos para conseguir financiación? Para él cada intento le dejaba un poco más cerca de su sueño, producir sus películas animadas. Héctor nos cita algunos consejos para superar los temores comunes al emprender: Aceptar el riesgo: Todo negocio conlleva un riesgo. Sino fuera así todo el mundo tendría un negocio propio. Muchas veces, quien más arriesga, obtienen un mayor beneficio. Planificar, organizar y persistir. El tener todo lo mejor atado posible te beneficiará de poder evitar una fuente de estrés muy común, la de creer que dejas algo por hacer en el momento clave de tu idea. Buscar medios para ser productivo te ayudará a beneficiarte de una sensación de realización increíble. Tener sensación de “perder el tiempo” generará pensamientos negativos. Considera que cualquier logro lleva su tiempo. Si te frustras al no conseguirlo a la primera o segunda, te será difícil conseguir avanzar hasta el siguiente peldaño de tu escalera profesional. Visualizar el resultado. Llena tu mente con ideas positivas, imaginando donde quieres estar en un futuro a medio plazo. Comparte tu tiempo con otros emprendedores para escuchar y alimentarte de sus experiencias personales. El escuchar a otras personas cómo han lidiado con sus problemas, no tiene porque darte una pista de cómo se resuelven los tuyos, pero si que empatizarás con la sensación de logro por resolver el problema. Lee y conoce las historias y biografías de otros emprendedores que consiguieron su sueño. Una mentalidad abierta como la de ellos te ayudará e inspirará. Crece en una pequeña burbuja idílica. Sería una forma muy especial de rodearte de buenos sentimientos y pensamientos, dejando a un lado los problemas frecuentes del día a día. No significa que apartes tu mirada de lo que te rodea, pero no acudas a fuentes de información, como Informativos o programas en medios que hablan de las particularidades negativas de la vida en sociedad y la política. Ya sabéis que ellos viven de las noticias que llaman la atención y hoy en día, la mayoría se centra en aspectos negativos, desafortunadamente. Refuérzate en tu entorno. Amigos, familia, pareja. Ellos te escucharán y te sabrán apoyar en los momentos complicados, que como bien te puedes imaginar no serán pocos. Escucha rápidamente el feedback, opiniones, de los demás. Piensa que siempre tienes tiempo de virar tu rumbo si el camino no es el correcto, pero cuanto antes lo hagas, antes conseguirás comenzar el sendero hacia el siguiente paso que te dejará más cerca de tu meta. Finalmente, nos explica como hizo posible salir adelante en el momento en que ...

One thing Walt Disney ALWAYS wanted in his theme parks was a train. From his earliest days in Marceline, Missouri, to taking the train from NYC to Los Angeles after Oswald the Lucky Rabbit was taken from him, Walt always had a fascination with railroads. This week I'll take a closer look at that fascination with the Word of the Week – Railroad. From the train that brought the Disney family to Marceline, MO to the WDW Railroad, take a trip with me as I explore the history of railroads in the life and times of Walter Elias Disney.

On this week's very special episode of We Want The D, Vicky, Nolan and Jill are taking a deep dive into the man without whom this podcast wouldn't be possible - Walter Elias Disney; better known his friends (and enemies and underpaid workers) as 'Walt.' If we learned anything from our discussion, it's that Walt was a complicated figure. Sure, he may have creating Mickey Mouse (kinda), but he also thought Song of the South was a good idea. He may have changed the world of film and animation, but he also named names in front of HUAC while wearing a silly tie. He thought up Disneyland, but only after falling down a bizarre rabbit hole of toy train obsession. We hope you enjoy this departure from our regular format as we celebrate and scrutinize the life and works of the man who built the empire that this podcast gluttonously gorges itself with each week.
