The founder of Disney Land, Walt Disney built the wonderful dream world for children around the world, and then started the magic miracle till nowadays. Walt Disney was originally enchanted with animations. In 1922 he established the first company, Laugh-O-Gram film. The first creation was a cartoon version of Little Red Riding Hood.
Then he started to create another new project, which is quite famous called “Alice’s wonderland”, but before he finished the new project, he declared bankruptcy of Laugh-O-Gram. Then he moved to California and continued his unfinished work, he sold the ideas to others but the buyer did not create as Walt’s original idea. The idea was presented as a series of cartoons. There were nearly 31 Alice comedies through 1925 and 1926.

The most famous and can be the representative when we think of Disney, the first thing that would come into my mind is the lovely mouse. Yes, it is Mickey mouse. The main reasons why Mickey would be so popular is that his attractive characters, optimistic, cheerful and resilience, which was just like the reflection of Walt Disney. According to Charles Solomon, an animation historian, “Ub designed Mickey’s physical appearance, but Walt gave him his soul.” But the attractive characters are not enough, what made Mickey known around the world is that Walt decided to give Mickey Mouse a voice. This was a big breakthrough at that time. The first one is “Steamboat willie”, it attract a lot of attention when it was displayed at New York’s Colony Theater. The New York Times gave comments to the Mickey trend, “an ingenious piece of work with a good deal of fun” Since then, the name Mickey Mouse had been going to trap everyone’s heart!
