People worked hard and were proud of their work

They used to animate with pencils, paper, and a whole lotta patience. It's like drawing a really long comic strip, but with more crying and coffee breaks.

It's quite interesting to see how we have developed in technology.

Interesting discovery

I just found out that more than likely my great grandmother was one of "pretty girls". Before my grandfather passed away in 07, he told me my great grandmother worked for disney on snow white and bambi. I did some research and found out she was probably one of the women in the paint and ink department. This actually makes me happy.

Disney doesn't make 'em like they used to.
