The House That Snow White Built

With the success of the world's first animated feature film, Walt Disney built something no one had ever seen before, a studio designed from the ground up around the creative process itself. Half a million square feet on the open fields of Buena Vista Street in Burbank, eight times larger than anything that came before, and built so that artists, designers, engineers, and storytellers could collaborate at a scale the entertainment world had never attempted. From Pinocchio, Fantasia, and Bambi to Michael Eisner, Bob Iger, and Josh D'Amaro, this is the story of how Walt Disney designed the magic into a system.
