While sticking with his job during the day, he began making Laugh-O-gram ad rolls and animations with the artist ‘Ub Iwerks’. LOG Films soon went broke, and Walt, at age 21 moved to California somewhere with only $40 in his pocket.

Soon after coming back from war Walt decided to go work for Pesman-Rubin Commercial Art Studio designing letterhead and advertisements. There he met his longtime friend Iwerks. Walt and Iwerks were so laid off. Later they started to work for Kansas City Film Ad Company, making one-minute advertisements to appear before movies and live action films. Walt thought that he was confined enough to start his own business from what he had learned from Kansas City Film Ad Company. So he started his own company named Laugh-O-Gram Films.

successful for a while for the aspiring designers; however, in 1928, Walt discovered that a woman named M.J. Winkler and her husband, Charles Mintz, stole the rights to Oswald and all the animators that helped in the design process except Ub Iwerks. Due to a contract dispute, Walt could not retain the rights and therefore lost them permanently. At this point, all seemed lost, but Walt was a person of superior determination and went ahead forward with his goal. With his team consisting of very few, and most of his original production team being gone, he wanted to create a piece of his very own artwork, thus came the character known as “Steamboat Willie.” This was Walt’s first publicized cartoon with sound.

During those six months, Walt met a man named Ubbe Iwerks. The two men decided to go into business together. They wanted to make animations, or pictures that move. To make money to help make the animations, Walt and Ub made short films, which were about a minute long. Their first production was, “The Alice Comedies.” Walt wanted to make loner movies though which were about seven minutes long. He longed to make fairy tales. Walt and Ub finally came out with the production of Little Red Riding Hood. It took six months. Both men quit their day jobs, and opened a company called Laugh-O-Gram

Business in Kansas was not going well for Walt, so he decided to move to Hollywood to make a better business. While Walt was there, he looked for someone to sell his cartoons to. Walt found a woman named Margaret Winkler, who liked Walt’s Alice’s Wonderland and agreed to pay for them and sell to theaters (Stewart 35). But there was a twist, Walt had only one

On December 5, 1901, Elias Disney and Flora Call Disney gave birth to a man who would eventually change our world by the creation of a little mouse. Walter Elias Disney, who was also known as “Walt,” was born in a small town in Chicago, Illinois, by a father who was an Irish-Canadian descent, and his mother who was a German- English descent. Walt was one out of five children, four brothers and a sister. Their names were Herbert Arthur Disney, Raymond Arnold Disney, Roy Oliver Disney, and Ruth Flora Disney. Walt was the oldest one out of the five. While he attended school, he was introduced to Walter Pfeiffer, who decided to show Walt vaudeville and the art of making movies. Walt decided to drop out of high school, at the age of sixteen, to join the army. He was rejected to join because he was too young of age.

Laugh-O-Gram Studios ultimately failed, and in 1923 the studio was so burdened with debt that Walt had no choice but to shut down the studio and declare bankruptcy.

Since he really wanted to have some part in the war he turned into a volunteer with the Red Cross. Within a week, he was sent to the front and didn 't return for one to two years. At the point when Walt come back from the wars he told his dad that he wanted to become an animator, but his dad didn 't approve of that. Walt really didn 't care for his dad opinion and he enrolled in art school. Walt went to art school for a while in both Missouri and Kansas City and after that later found a job at a promoting firm in Kansas. There he met a very talented man named Ubbe Iwerks. Ubbe was an awesome artist and he and Walt turned out to be great friends. Walt and Ubbe worked throughout the day for the advertising company, but during the evening they studied the art of animation and experimented with ways to make animation smoother by using light and a camera. Walt soon quit his employment at the advertising firm since he was not happy with the work he was doing. He found an job in Kansas City at a Film Ad Company. Walt was quickly fired from this job and having nowhere else to go, he returned home.

Walt found his fight to compete with “Felix the Cat” in “Oswald the Lucky Rabbit”. In a moments notice, Walt’s character had gone from his mind to Iwwerks hand and straight into the hearts of his viewers. Charles Mintz quickly took control of all of the accounts that Winkler was handling, which meant Oswald too. The people loved Oswald and they wanted more and so did Disney. As he went to the producing studios he was caught completely off guard, due to the fact that the producing company and Mintz owned all the rights to Oswald and many of the animators working under him were contracted to them as well. If he didn’t do what they asked, then he would loose his achievement. In the end, he did not do what the company wanted.
