When people think of animated cartoons, one name immediately comes to mind “Walt Disney.” He is the most popular and known animator in the world. He wasn’t successful at the beginning of his career but he was a taskmaker and entrepreneur. Walt’s hard work and entrepreneurship made the world’s best popular cartoon character “Mickey Mouse.” As an animator and an owner of Disney Corporation, he made a lot of influences in past and present days. Hereby the importance of his life and influences will be discussed, in a age order.
First of all, Walter Elias Disney was born in Chicago, Illinois, on December 5th, 1901, the fourth kid of five children of Elias and Flora Disney. The family often moved from place to place because of Walt’s father Elias. He tried his hand successively as a farmer, a businessman, an orange grower, a carpenter and ?? But he expected all members of his family, no matter how young, to spend most of their waking hours working for him without any compensation.
During Walt’s childhood and adolescence, Elias operated a farm in Marceline, Missouri. It was there that Walt spent his early years and developed his interest in drawing. In 1910 the family moved again, this time to Kansas City. There he enrolled in art classes at the Kansas City Art Institute. In 1917 the family moved again, this time back to Chicago. In Chicago, Walt joined Red Cross unit and spent nine months as a ambulance driver in France at the end of World War I.
After Walt Disney returned from France in 1919, he decided to make art his career. He soon joined the staff of the Kansas City Film Advertising Company, which was producing a simple type of animation. He and a colleague, Ubbe Iwerks, learned enough about animation to try doing some of their own. They formed a company called Laugh-O-Gram Films. The company made fun of local problem and scandals in cartoon form. They sold well enough to give Walt and Iwerks the courage to go into business for themselves. But the Laugh-O-Grams didn’t hold Walt’s interest very long. He had a new idea to try, which was illustrating updated fairy tales in series of cartoons. The cartoons he and Iwerks produced were not bad, but Walt never got paid for hid films. Walt then started on a new fresh project, a series of funny story featuring a girl actress and animated characters. He called it “Alice’s Wonderland.” Money was so scarce that he couldn’t even pay for the rent. With such meager fund all he could produce was a pilot film for the Alice series. He thought Kansas City was not the place that earns much money, so he decided to move to California.
In 1923, Walt Disney moved to California, and began Walt Disney Production with his brother Roy Disney and a colleague, Ubbe Iwerks. After five year of making silent cartoons, he produced ‘SteamBoat Willie,” the first cartoon to use synchronized sound1. In 1928 Walt Disney created a cartoon “Mickey Mouse” by using his own voice. Disney’s success in “Mickey Mouse” led to the film series called “Silly Symphonies,” which was introduced in 1929 and first used color in 1932. Soon full color Disney cartoons was produced, such as “Three Little Pigs” and “The Tortoise and the Hare.” These two films even won academy awards. 1930s brought fame and successes to Walt Disney as a creator of Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Pluto, Minnie Mouse, and Goofy. These characters not only appeared in cartoons but also on merchandise items licensed by Disney Production.
In 1937 the Walt Disney Production Studio produced the world’s first animated feature film “Snow White and Seven Dwarfs.” Then came “Pinocchio and Fantasia” in 1940, “Dumbo” in 1941, and “Bambie” in 1942. “Song of the South” in 1946, used cartoon characters with live actors. All of these films were successful.
During World War II the Walt Disney Production Studio designed military insignias and made training films for the United States armed forces. After the war Walt Disney continued to make animated films, such as “Alice in Wonderland” in 1951, “Peter Pan” in 1953, and “The Jungle Book” in 1967. He also turned to live-action films such as “Treasure Island” in 1950 and “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea” in 1954.
Moving into totally new area, Walt Disney opened Disneyland in Anaheim, California, in 1955. He had wanted to design an amusement park where families could have fun together. Disneyland had exciting rides and attractions but was also spotlessly clean and run by smiling, friendly employees. The park eventually came to be one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States and may be in the world, too. During the next ten years, Disney added new attractions to Disneyland while continuing to make the films the whole family could enjoy. “Marry Poppins,” in 1964, is considered by many to be the pinnacle of his filmmaking career. Disney won a record 32 Academy Awards for his technical innovations ideas in film.
Walt Disney also pioneered the production of feature films for television. Some of these appeared on his weekly series “The Mickey Mouse Club (1955-59)” and on ” Walt Disney’s Wonderful World of Color,” which aired, under several titles for 29 seasons. Shows prepared for New York World’s Fair in 1964 enabled Disney to show off his Audio-Animatronics figures in such attractions as “It’s a Small World” and ” Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln.” The life like figure of Abraham Lincoln, which recited passages from his speeches, never ceased to amaze fairgoers.
Walt Disney never rested. Even as he died, on December 15th, 1966, he was planning for a whole new Walt Disney World vacation kingdome in Florida, and EPCOT. It is an experimental prototype community of tomorrow. It is a fun area consists of a showcase, a recreation of foreign cities, spread like fan around lagoon. On the other side of water, the world of future is dominated by a 180-foot geodesic sphere, and Spaceship Earth. The sphere is is surrounded by a number of pavilions housing entertaining displays of future possibilities in the fields of energy, transportation, agriculture, mariculture2, and technology. Spaceship Earth is devoted to information and communications from dinosaur time to the 21st century.
In conclusion, Walter Elias Disney was a great taskmaster full of innovative ideas. In his lifetime he made so many movies and cartoons that play important role in children’s life. Also he played important role in the development of animation and film. Even now most people remembers him, because animation computer designers of Walt Disney Production are keeps remaking Walt old films and cartoons. Even-though he died, he still plays important role in our society, today.

History and development
This park is named after its creator Walt Disney. He was an American animator, film director and founder of the company “ Walt Disney Productions”.
The idea to create pleasure children's park arose at Disney when he walked with daughters in park. While children went to drive on roundabouts, the father patiently was waiting for them. During these walks he also came to a conclusion that America didn’t have a place where it would be interesting to spend time both for adults and children. And then Disney decided to create such place.
In 1955 Walt Disney opened his first park in Anaheim, California.
In 1959, Walt Disney Productions began looking for land for a second park to supplement Disneyland. Market surveys revealed that only 5% of Disneyland's visitors came from east of the Mississippi River, where 75 percent of the population of the United States lived. Additionally, Walt Disney disliked the businesses that had sprung up around Disneyland and wanted control of a much larger area of land for the new project.
Walt Disney flew over the Orlando site (one of many) in November 1963. Seeing the well-developed network of roads, including the planned Interstate 4 and Florida's Turnpike, with McCoy Air Force Base (later Orlando International Airport) to the east, Disney selected a centrally-located site near Bay Lake.
To avoid a burst of land speculation, Disney used various dummy corporations to acquire 27,443 acres (11,106 ha) of land. In May 1965, some of these major land transactions were recorded a few miles southwest of Orlando in Osceola County. Also, two large tracts totaling $1.5 million were sold, and smaller tracts of flatlands and cattle pastures were purchased by exotic-sounding companies such as the Latin-American Development and Management Corporation and the Reedy Creek Ranch Corporation (Some of these names are now memorialized on a window above Main Street, U.S.A. in the Magic Kingdom). In addition to three huge parcels of land were many smaller parcels, referred to as "outs."
Much of the land acquired had been platted into 5-acre (2.0 ha) lots in 1912 by the Munger Land Company and sold to investors. In most cases, the owners were happy to get rid of the land, which was mostly swamp. Another issue was the mineral rights to the land, which were owned by Tufts University. Without the transfer of these rights, Tufts could come in at any time and demand the removal of buildings to obtain minerals. Disney's team eventually negotiated a deal with Tufts to buy the mineral rights for $15,000.
After most of the land had been bought, the truth of the property's owner was leaked to the Orlando Sentinel newspaper on October 20, 1965. A press conference soon was organized for November 15. At the presentation, Walt Disney explained the plans for the site, including EPCOT, the Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow, which was to be a futuristic planned city (and which was also known as Progress City). He envisioned a real working city with both commercial and residential areas, but one that also continued to showcase and test new ideas and concepts for urban living.
Walt Disney died from lung cancer on December 15, 1966, before his vision was realized. His brother and business partner, Roy O. Disney, postponed his retirement to oversee construction of the resort's first phase.
Attractions
The wonderful world of Disney tops the list for most Orlando vacations for kids of all ages. Walt Disney World Florida first opened its gates to the public just over thirty-five years ago, transforming a quiet southern farming community into the biggest international vacation destination in the world.
Disneyland Florida is made up of four amazing theme parks in Orlando: Disney’s Magic Kingdom, Disney Hollywood Studios, Disney Animal Kingdom, and Epcot.
At 30,000 acres, Walt Disney World is the size of the city of San Francisco , and twice as big as Manhattan .
Disney’s Magic Kingdom .The centerpiece of Walt Disney World Florida is the Magic Kingdom. The first of many global spin-offs of California’s Disneyland, it is home to the childhood memories of generations, from Snow White to the Lion King. Like Disneyland, it is made up of areas like Frontierland, Adventureland, Fantasyland, Tomorrowland. Don’t be surprised if you run into Micky, Goofy, or Cinderella along Main Street USA.
The starting point for most first-time visitors on a Disney World vacation, it’s good to arrive an hour early to beat the crowds at opening time. Frontierland has Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and the animatronic Country Bear Jamboree show. Tomorrowland features Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, and Stitch’s Great Escape. At Adventureland, you’ll find the Pirates of the Caribbean, Jungle Cruise, Swiss Family Tree house, and Magic Carpets of Aladdin. Other popular attractions include the Haunted Mansion and It’s A Small World.
Disney Hollywood Studios . Originally planned as a working studio, Disney Hollywood Studios is a fully functioning movie and television production center, as well as a top Florida family vacation destination.
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror takes guests in a haunted elevator car of the deserted Hollywood Tower Hotel, and then drops them 130 feet. The Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular has the audience involved in the filming of an action movie. Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show features high-flying high-speed movie stunts full of pyrotechnic effects. Other Attractions include the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster featuring Aerosmith.
Disney Animal Kingdom . This 500-acre zoo park features a menagerie of exotic free-roaming animals. The best time to encounter the lions, elephants, zebras, and giraffes of the free-roaming Kilimanjaro Safaris is in the cool of the morning or at the late-afternoon feeding by the Disney Animal Kingdom Lodge.
In between, chill out on the Asian tiger themed Kali River Rapids, and then head indoors to ride past the animated robotic Dinosaurs, or the popular 3-D show “Its Tough To Be a Bug.”
Epcot . A must-see at Disney's theme parks in Orlando is the Epcot center. Future World, dominated by the geodesic Spaceship Earth, offers popular edutainment rides like the interactive Mission: Space and Soarin’. Postcard pavilions from China, Mexico, and Morocco surround the World Showcase lagoon, where you can also enjoy a glass of wine in France or a stein of beer in Germany.
One reason why Disneyland is a popular destination for tourists is due to the fact that there are plenty of things to do. This theme park area is massive enough that it would take roughly 5 days to completely explore its many sights, attractions, and rides. It is smart to come up with a vacation plan well in advance to save more time deciding and spend more time exploring Disneyworld with your family.
Disney World is all about entertainment. This is why two entertainment complexes are built for tourists to visit and take in more sights. Disney entertainment complexes offer free admission, so you won’t have to spend a single penny when you visit them.
The first and more popular of these two complexes is Downtown Disney. This complex is massive enough to house three more sections: The Marketplace, the West Side, and the Hyperion Wharf. There are stores, restaurants, gift shops, and free chocolate samples (make sure to drop by at the Ghiradelli store) there!
The second complex, The Boardwalk, is where you will find lots of hotels wherein tourists can stay while visiting Disneyland in Florida. There are nightclubs and restaurants worth exploring, too. If you are looking for unique entertainment, you will also spot street performers at The Boardwalk that offer various acts from magic illusions to juggling and all sorts of exhibitions.
Tower of Terror. If there is one ride that people will always recommend when visiting Disneyland, it would have to be the Tower of Terror. This ride is beyond compare when it comes to the level of excitement and adrenaline rush! The Tower of Terror also epitomizes a modern-day Disneyland ride that is all about the thrill. The launching and multiple free falls are nothing compared to the psychological thrill that this ride inspires amongst riders. It is a treat for thrill-seeking riders, although most would not dare ride it again. For this reason and more, this is a main attraction at Disney World and deemed by many as the best ride there is.
Expedition Everest. No trip to Disneyland is ever complete without riding a roller coaster. And in Disney World in Florida, Expedition Everest is what will fulfill that adrenaline rush. This dark-themed ride incorporates all the exciting coaster elements that appeal to all riders, young and old. In addition to the dark theme, it features backward coaster motion and an intense G-force that is powering this ride. All kids below 44 inches are prohibited from riding the Expedition Everest, though.
Pirates of the Caribbean. One of Disney’s most famous rides, Pirates of the Caribbean, has been treating visitors with its salty tales for years. This ride has become somewhat of a landmark at Disneyland in Florida since its debut in 1967. And yet, it has remained as popular as ever with its incorporation of frightening images and splashdowns that never fail to entertain! First-time goers will adore this theme park ride for its presentation and unmatched excitement. Meanwhile, those who have been aboard the Pirates before will find themselves being lured back in.
Dining at Disney World. When you are done with all the exciting rides, make sure to explore the many culinary attractions and fast food chains lined up near Disney World. There is a good mix of casual and fancy restaurants to choose from. Florida is known for its many wonderful culinary offerings, apart from the thrilling rides at Disneyland. Sampling these wonderful cuisines will therefore leave a more lasting imprint into your vacation. Be as open as you can be with these food choices and you will be pleased at what you will find.
Exciting rides will make up most of your time at Disneyland in Florida. You should never miss popular and exciting rides such as the Tower of Terror, Expedition Everest, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Soarin’, to name a few. Exploring the culinary adventures at Florida along the amusement park or paying a visit to the Disney entertainment complexes would be worth the memories you make.

Disneyland Essay, Research Paper
The greatest place on the face of the earth is Disneyland. Nowhere else has the magic that a day at Disneyland possesses. From my childhood to my adulthood, I have never experienced a day at Disneyland that didn?t put enough joy in my heart to far exceed the admission price. Rides, shops, shows, and characters, These are just a few of the many great aspects of a wonderful place called Disneyland.
Disneyland has always been a very special place to me. My parents took my family there for the first time when I was about three. To this day I still remember shaking Mickey Mouse?s hand, giving Goofy a hug, and meeting all of the rest of my favorite Disney characters. It was a truly euphoric experience to meet stars of all my favorite cartoons that I so loyally watched every morning. When I reached preschool, and found out how to ?brag?, my trip to Disneyland was some of my best ammo. I laugh now at the fact that Mickey and Goofy were just normal people, yet I was overwhelmed at the time to meet such stars.
Several years passed, and I was now a twelve year old who remembered Disneyland as a place where ?little kids? go to meet Mickey Mouse. Fortunately upon arrival to the park I realized I was wrong. I soon realized that that my mature height of five feet and one-half inch had given me a golden key to the doors of some of the biggest thrill rides the world will ever know. I was now seeing Disneyland in a totally different way. I ran from ride to ride, my level of excitement raging as never before. My stomach
was being twisted, juggled, and tossed like never before; for a twelve year old boy I was as close to heaven as a kid could ever dream to reach.
As my senior year of baseball arrived, our hard work fund raising was about to be paid off. We had been planning a trip to California for about a year, and on our last day before we came home we were going to spend a day at Disneyland. After trying very hard to convince my parents that I would much rather stay at the hotel, I was practically forced out the door. I had a feeling that I had just been there. Amazingly enough, my third trip to the Magic Kingdom turned out to be the greatest trip yet. For the first time I felt I appreciated the beauty of Disneyland. I found myself exploring shops, I listened to the music, I took the time to notice the cleanliness of the park, and also the friendliness of the employees. With all the caves, tunnels, and different styles of cultures, even waiting turned out to be a pleasure.
Disneyland will forever be my favorite place. I have viewed the kingdom from several different perspectives. Each case was special in its own way, touching my heart in one way or another. I hope some day soon I will have the opportunity to watch my kids experience the joy and excitement of a magical day at a most wonderful place known as Disneyland.
