 Laugh-O-
Grams
• Walt and a fellow artist Ub Iwerks started a business, the
short-lived Iwerks-Disney Commercial Artists , but it failed.
• They joined the Kansas City Film Ad Company which produced
commercials using the cutout animation technique. Disney became
interested in animation.
• Dinsey realized CEL animation was better than cut
out animation but his company did not support,
which led him to open a new business with Fred
Harman.
• They produced short cartoons which were sold under the name
"Newman's Laugh-O-Grams". But the Laugh-O-Grams cartoons did
not provide enough income to keep the company solvent, so
Disney started production of Alice's Wonderland which combined
live action with animation.

Mouse and gave it voice by 1947.

abandon cel animation and inculcate a more
efficient technique of drawing key poses.
Moreover, Powers signed Iwerks to work for him.
