Snow white/sunny with a chance of meatballs.

When someone mentions any name of the seven dwarfs, or the song, Hi-ho Hi-ho, automatically they think of the animated classic Snow white and the seven dwarfs.  Snow white became the first full length cel animated film in history as well as the first animated film in America.  Walt Disney's first full length animated feature film gave way to a new brand of film making

Before production began in June of 1934, Walt Disney was already famous for the creation of the animated shorts of Mickey Mouse.  But Disney wanted to make his studio more famous and increase revenues by created feature films.  Snow White was made by using a multi-plane camera to create depth and a large sum of artist, drawing the scenes and characters on a drawing board.  Unlike previous animated shorts the Disney made, which he used animals, Snow white introduced human characters such as the huntsman, the prince, the queen and snow white herself.  Production of the film cost a staggering 15 million dollars, which lead Walt Disney to mortgage his home.  People would say that he was a fool to be doing what he was doing.

Snow white Finally came out to the public on VHS in 1994 and sold millions in only a few months.  It was the last of Disney's films to be released to the public on home video.

Fast forward almost 73 years, animation has made major strides since the release of snow white.  Yes there are still artist that draw the characters on a drawing bord, but all animated films are created using computer technology which was first used in the early 1960s.

Cloudy with a chance of meatballs is one example of how animation has evolved since Snow White.  Immediatly once the movie starts you can see a huge difference.  The way the characters bodies look, how theres so much going on in one scene, such as the background where other people are maybe walking, the clouds are movie, or the birds are flying.  Cloudy with a chance of meatballs also has a lot more action going on then what Snow White showed.  Throughout the evolution of aniamtion, films have got a little more action packed and somtimes more violent then what films used to be.  But I think that makes for a better movie. the choas that erupts when the food storm  occurs, is a far cry to that when compared to when the seven dwarfs are chasing the queen up the hill in a storm.  many animated films although have kept to one main focus in the theme, and that is family orented and love stories.
