A real icon

Mickey is the hero of many Disney movies and is, almost since its beginning, the mascot of the studios. After the studios lost the rights to the character of Oswald the rabbit, Walt Disney and his animators started looking for a new character. They came up with the idea of Mickey, a small anthropomorphic mouse inspired by the ones Walt had in his cage and which he used to draw. He is a cheerful and positive character. In the first film where he is called Mickey, Steamboat Willie, he is in black and white and silent but the success of this film will make that we will quickly find Mickey in new adventures. He will then be given this famous voice made by Walt Disney himself and he will take color. His little shorts will become red with white buttons and his shoes will become yellow. If he will play many other roles and go through modern animation, his style will not change in almost 100 years.
