Jim Hill talks with Disney’s Eric Goldberg about how the studio evolved Mickey Mouse backwards for their short Get a Horse. “In order to make Get A Horse really look like it was something that it had been produced during that specific era in Hollywood history, the animators who worked on this short had to set their mental clocks back to before they were born. Because a lot of the animation techniques that we use now hadn’t even been invented back in 1928.”
