In-Betweener 1: The Skeleton Dance


Listen Later

Hope everybody is having a safe and spooky Halloween!
This Halloween, Aly and Sarrah are filling your treat bags with an In-Betweener. This episode discusses the Silly Symphony short: The Skeleton Dance.
Aly goes a little bit sideways and takes this opportunity to talk about Edvard Grieg, the man who composed the classic movement: The March of the Dwarves - which Carl Salling incorporated into the short.
Sarrah gives us the highlights on the life of Ub Iwerks, the other man who started the Disney Studio. Mr. Iwerks is generally a little overshadowed by Walt, and we wanted to make sure that our listeners got the scoop on this very talented man who was on the ground floor when Disney started.
Together we discuss the impact of the Silly Symphonies and how they helped Disney Animation become what it is today.
So rattle those bones, get the bets out of the belfry, and get ready for a spooky good time!
And everybody have a safe and spooky Halloween!
