They say that big ideas comes from a slew of small ones. This can be rightly said for Walt Disney himself, who began his starry love affair with animation at the tender age of twelve. At a young age, Walt began tinkering with an old movie projector and discovered that the illusion of animation formed when similar pictures were put side by side.

The discrepancies were barely noticeable as an animation progressed, and thus, the colored, animated cartoon was brought to life from the depths of an old technology that brought us silent films and the like.
