A Brief History of Hollywood

1955 – Halfway through the construction of a new amusement park in southern California, Walt Disney finds his money running low. To finance the project, Disney turns to television – a medium Hollywood had largely ignored – and partners with ABC to create a TV series, “Disneyland”, an hour-long advertisement for a park that was still being built. Disney also uses the program to promote his upcoming movies, inspiring other industry figures to seize TV as an advertising medium.

But Disney aims higher, and begins plans for a feature-length animated film, even amid heavy skepticism from the industry. In December 1937, Disney completes SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS, a box office and critical success that paves the way for feature animation.
