With the new Cinderella movie premiering today, I thought it was appropriate to make Fact #159 about the classic princess herself.
Ilene Woods, the voice of (the original) Cinderella, was the first person to use double tracked vocals, ever. It was a innovative technique thought up by Walt himself.
Bonus Fact: This clip was Walt Disney’s all time favorite piece of animation. This was drawn by Marc Davis, one of Disney’s Nine Old Men.
In this awesome and insightful interview with Ilene, she talks about the process of this double-track recording. You can tell she adored Walt Disney. ❤
