Ch. 4. Walt Disney said, “I definitely feel that we cannot do the fantastic things based on the real, unless we first know the real.” What does he mean? Is there a contradiction here with arguments made in chapter 2? Think deeply. How can you reconcile chapters 2 and 4; look to your selection for answers and examples.
Walt Disney wanted cartoon characters that were larger than life. The characters he envisioned had personalities based on reality, yet were made comical and exaggerated to create a mood. What Walt Disney means is: we cannot make a cartoon based on reality if we don't study and analyze reality enough to get the whole picture.
The animators were also story-tellers, and they would devote themselves to creating characters that Walt Disney thought worked. I think that the quote makes a lot of sense. This can apply to anything you do: the more you practice the technique the more it will improve, but you can't make anything work without a solid foundation.
The animators created a foundation for their characters to come to life. Walt's characters had so much depth on the screen. This proves how much work he put into making cartoons to appeal to viewers' ideas, emotions, and imagination. Over-all, Walt Disney's ideals are consistent throughout the book.
