This 29th Silly Symphony is indeed a landmark in Disney animation. Originally begun as a black and white cartoon, the work was scrapped at great cost, and the cartoon was made in color at Walt's insistence, for he believed color could greatly enhance animation. He signed a two-year agreement with Technicolor® giving him sole rights to the process for animated shorts as well as a great head start over all of the other cartoon producers in Hollywood. Very soon all the Disney cartoons would be in color. Walt's faith in the process not only enhanced the quality of his films, but helped make Technicolor® a respected standard in the film industry.
