He begins to draw Mickey Mouse the way he was drawn in the 20s! With a very simple silhouette, round eyes, and less detail.

He then goes on to draw Mickey Mouse with what he calls “pie wedge” eyes. He details that after Steamboat Willie came out, the way Mickey Mouse was drawn stayed consistent for another 10-12 years, before becoming what we know today.

Michael Woodside then draws the final Mickey Mouse and explains that once Fantasia came out, the way Mickey was drawn stayed consistent and is what we recognize today as Mickey Mouse!

What a fun piece of Disney history and a wonderful way to celebrate 100 years of Disney!
