Washington,
'Walt Disney', which is famous in the world of cartoons, wanted to create a new character parallel to the rabbit character 'Oswald-the Rabbit'. It was planned to be a character that appeals to everyone, from children to adults.
Accordingly, as a fictional character of Walt Disney, 'Mickey Mouse' made his debut through the animated short film 'Steamboat Willie' released on November 18, 1928. It was originally named 'Mortimer Mouse'. Later it was changed to Mickey Mouse.
The character of Mickey Mouse is said to have been inspired by Charlie Chaplin's films that make us laugh out loud through silent films without any dialogues. Mickey Mouse was designed as a mouse character who charmed children through his mischief and encouraged them to think for themselves.
Originating in the black and white film era, Mickey Mouse has since taken on various incarnations such as animation, motion graphics, and live action. To this day, Mickey Mouse retains its place in school functions, fashion shows and gift shops.
As the Mickey Mouse character who graced their childhood celebrates his 94th birthday today, fans are sending their best wishes. It is noteworthy that Disney has released a short film called 'Mickey: The Story of a Mouse' to explain the resilient history of the Mickey Mouse character.
