Hollywood animation studios, including Warner Brothers and MGM, did give some license to their artists to indulge in title antics. But one can also see that life for the titling crew at Disney was strained by the weight of its foreign-language versions and that film exports rarely encouraged innovation in titling.
The first Mickey Mouse cartoon, circa 1929, features both Mickey and Minnie, but its main title, “Plane Crazy,” is lackluster:
Another great area of interest for me is the invention of animation title sequencing as this clearly displays the genre and type of film that will be displayed. I am largely interested in animation title sequences as some of the most iconic on-screen displays appear from historical shows such as "Looney tunes; Tom and Jerry and my favorite Pink Panther."
