In August of 1941, Walt and a team of composers, animators, storytellers, and directors, went on a research trip to South America on behalf ot the US Government. The goal was to gather enough materials to fill out a couple of projects, with a fair amount of goodwill thrown around, too. What Walt got out of the trip was not one but two great films, a series of weird shorts, and an education for his artists that would change the way the studio made films moving forward.----------------Support the show!Come watch us on Twitch!Subscribe to us on YouTubeJoin everyone over on our Patreon pageVisit us on Etsy for the coolest Disney-inspired shirtsCheck out the podcast archives on our websiteCome check out the Discord group!Learn more about your ad choices.
