Hercules
Description
Have a mighty fun time with HERCULES, Disney’s animated classic from the
creators of ALADDIN and THE LITTLE MERMAID. Nominated for an Academy Award(R)
(Best Music, Original Song, “Go The Distance,” 1997), this legendary family
favorite is packed with colossal laughs and nonstop adventure. Taken from the
gods as a newborn and adopted on Earth, Hercules is just an awkward pillar of
strength trying to fit in. What he wants most is to impress his father Zeus.
When Hercules discovers Hades’ sinister plot to take over Mount Olympus, he
goes from zero to hero and, with the help of his pals Pegasus and Phil,
discovers that real strength comes from the heart!|British artist/political
cartoonist Gerald Scarfe was brought in to assist with character design, and
he remained involved as an ongoing artistic advisor to the animators.|A field
trip to Greece and Turkey in the summer of 1994 gave artists a firsthand look
at landscapes and ancient sites, and an opportunity to hear expert accounts of
classic Greek mythology.|Animation began in early 1995, and eventually a team
of nearly 700 artists was involved with the project.|HERCULES features the
first use of morphing in the animation process.
