The Multiplane Camera Adventure

We love animation, we always have. We grew up reading comic books and watching cartoons. As we got older and learned how our favorite cartoons were made we found out that it was so much more than just doodles on paper and then filmed. Especially when you jump into the animation history of Walt Disney. Mr. Disney was not satisfied with doing the same as everyone else, he wanted to push the envelope, leave a lasting impression. So when it came time to make his first animated motion picture, Snow White, he used something no one else was using...A Multiplane Camera. The first multiplane camera was created in 1933 by Walt Disney Studios director/animator Ub Iwerks, and he created it with parts of an old car.

​The one used for Snow White was created in 1937 and could take up to seven layers of artwork, oils painted on glass. The camera uses those layers of flat artwork and with a camera shooting down it creates a three-dimensional image. And like magic you have a hit movie and Oscar for your shelf.

The Adventure to the Peter Pan Statue in Hyde Park, London, England

 When I was little I grew up loving Disney's Peter Pan! I mean a boy who never grows up, teaches kids to fly, has his own island and gets to fight pirates...well sign me up! Then in middle school I had to write a short paragraph on an author and got assigned J.M. Barrie, the author of Peter Pan. As I researched for information on the author, via encyclopedia (pre-internet), I discovered that there was a statue in London of Peter Pan. So of course it went on the bucket list, and when we decided to visit London on our Honeymoon, guess where we were going.
