Disney's Miracle Man

By the mid-1980s, the fabled animation studios of Walt Disney had fallen on hard times. The artists were polarized between newcomers hungry to innovate and old timers not yet ready to relinquish control. These conditions produced a series of box-office flops and pessimistic forecasts: maybe the best days of animation were over. Maybe the public didn't care. Only a miracle or a magic spell could produce a happy ending. A miracle man named Howard Ashman regained Disney’s magic with a staggering output of musical hits - "Little Mermaid," "Beauty and the Beast," and "Aladdin." This is a short tribute to the man that changed the face of Disney animation as we know it today. Listen to all the wonderful raw audio of original ideas and songs pitched during the animation process. Howard’s time at the Disney studios has been called by animators as “Waking Sleeping Beauty.”
