In the Mid 1930s, Walt Disney had
established himself as a well off Hollywood
animated-short producer. Mickey Mouse's cartoon career
was established, along with his new friends; Goofy,
Pluto, and the popular Donald Duck. Because of the
depression, Theater owners had to provide more
entertainment for viewers, adding double features.
Disney animators were first told of
this new film by Walt himself. After returning from the
cafe across from the studio Walt called a few of them
into the sound stage. "C'mon in the sound stage. I've
got something to tell you guys." Walt preceded to tell
the story of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The
story took two hours to tell, the animators sat teary
eyed from the wonderful tale. "That's going to be our
first Feature!" Walt proudly announced.
