Donald Duck, “Modern Inventions”, produced by Walt Disney, 1937. Directed by Jack King.

“Your hat, sir…”

The scene in the barber’s chair was storyboarded by Carl Barks while he worked in Disney’s animation department. Apparently when it was sent to Disney for approval he suggested making the robot barber a chatty type.

Barks’ gag suggestions got Walt’s attention, and earned him a transfer from being an in-betweener animator, to the story department. The experience he earned there working on plotting and storyboarding prepared him for the decades he would spend creating some of the greatest comics ever made.

I bet in a hundred years people are going to wonder why the kids of the 90s had such a fascination with anthropomorphic ducks.

If their research includes cultures beyond the US, people will actually wonder why Americans were only interested for such a short amount of time compared to the rest of the planet…
