Zoom Meeting
Walt Disney is one of the best companies in the world when it comes to entertainment, especially in films and animations. As a child, I used to enjoy cartoons and animations that were produced by Disney. My favorite show was Donald Duck because he was mischievous similar to my life as a child. The most important detail of the discussion was the choice of the Disney Company to choose Mickey Mouse as one of the main mascots or one of the main characters of the company. Mickey Mouse became a symbol of the company because he was relatable to many people in American society. The sell-off toys and films of the character allowed the Walt Disney company t make a profit as well as establish the company. However, in the 1980s, the company experienced financial restraints that affecter the activities of the company in the latter years of the twentieth century that allowed for the company’s competition like Warner Bros. to have the edge over them in the industry both in the content produced and the profits gained.
Looking into the Walt Disney Company discussion done in the class, on the perspectives that I found missing was how the company was able to outrun and outlast its main competitors like Warner Bros and the other production houses in Hollywood. Understanding how the company was able yo outdo some of its main competitors would provide a better understanding of the company and how it gained success in the film industry. Disney is the owner of the two highest-grossing films of all time, which include Avengers Infinity War and End Game. The discussion provided insight into how the Walt Disney Company was able to handle a financial crisis that threatened the success of the company.
