00:20I was in when they said
00:22you want to make a Mickey Mouse game
00:24but when they told me
00:26they'd gotten Oswald back
00:27I lost it
00:29I mean I was done
00:30I'm an old animation buff
00:31I mean I knew about Oswald
00:33before they mentioned him to me
00:34which is kind of rare
00:35and when they said
00:37you're going to have the opportunity
00:39to present Oswald
00:41on screen
00:42in a new Disney story
00:43for the first time since 1928
00:45I mean what an honor
00:54Oswald the Lucky Rabbit
00:55was Walt Disney's first cartoon star
00:57and he predates Mickey
00:59of course
01:00he's such a rich character
01:02and if you look back
01:02at the old animation
01:03it was so fun
01:05and so exciting
01:06Oswald was different
01:09from other animated film stars
01:11at that time
01:12those cartoons that Walt Nubb made
01:14were little gems of storytelling
01:17they weren't just a string of gags
01:19Oswald would fall in love
01:21have to deal with a rival
01:22he would go to war
01:24he would do all sorts of things
01:26he was way ahead of his time
01:27you know very quickly
01:29the Oswald cartoons
01:30became among the most popular
01:32silent cartoons
01:34of the late 20s
01:35Oswald was a big star
01:39in the late 20s
01:40after just about 18 months
01:41of prominence
01:42Walt went to his distributor
01:44to renew his contract
01:46and wanted more money
01:48to make better cartoons
01:50I mean even then
01:50Walt was all about quality
01:52and the distributor said
01:54no not only are we not
01:55going to give you more
01:56we're going to take your staff
01:58we own the rights
01:59to the character
02:00check your contract
02:01and you're out of work
02:02after losing that character
02:04Walt went back to the drawing board
02:06literally
02:08and Mickey Mouse
02:10comes into being
02:11and so Mickey Mouse
02:13goes down a path to success
02:15no one saw it coming
02:16maybe Walt did
02:17but you know
02:18he is what he is
02:18everyone on earth
02:20knows who Mickey Mouse is
02:21and Oswald just
02:23kind of disappeared
02:24there are all sorts of stories
02:25about how Mickey was created
02:26but he was created
02:28only because
02:29the rights to Oswald
02:31had been lost
02:32that's the tragedy of Oswald
02:34he really was poised
02:36to be the most successful
02:37and popular cartoon star
02:39in the world
02:39but Mickey came along
02:43and the rest is history
02:49Oswald came back into the Disney fold
02:51in 2006
02:52not to star in Disney Epic Mickey
02:54but rather to serve as a catalyst
02:56for the game
02:56because really he was
02:58the first forgotten character
02:59in Disney history
03:00that's kind of the factual story
03:02the sort of
03:03the heart of that story though
03:05is Oswald is Mickey Mouse's
03:07older brother
03:09and Oswald looks at Mickey's success
03:12and just says
03:14I was famous
03:15you stole the life
03:17that should have been mine
03:19yay
03:19we ran with that idea
03:22not only playing with
03:23his kind of sibling rivalry
03:26the forgotten brother
03:27but we also used him
03:28as a path for redemption
03:30for Mickey
03:30in his own arc
03:32finding out that he had family
03:34that he had forgotten
03:35or didn't even know about
03:36but then also trying to find his way
03:38through crafting this relationship
03:40once again
03:41with this person
03:42that he didn't even know was family
03:45he's an emotional touchdown
03:46for Mickey
03:47for players
03:48as you see Oswald
03:50change in the way
03:51he's responding to Mickey
03:52because of what the player
03:53is doing as Mickey
03:55you can sort of gauge your progress
03:57Oswald ultimately
03:58does re-engage with Mickey
04:00Mickey does redeem Oswald
04:02and that growing relationship
04:03is a measure of the player's progress
04:07I love Oswald
04:08and I want to make him a hero too
04:10that's you know
04:11kind of goal 1.5
04:12for this project
04:13I remind people
04:14how incredible
04:16a character Oswald is
04:17and set him up for
04:17for success
04:18as a cartoon star
04:19as a plush toy
04:21you know
04:21you name it
04:22I want Oswald everywhere
04:23because he deserves it
04:24you know
04:26you know
