Abstract

In 1994, Disney Interactive, the digital media branch of The Walt Disney Company, was looking for an entry into the growing digital media consumer market. Without internal resources they needed to outsource for the technology and manpower to make it happen. At the time the blockbuster Disney movie The Lion King was achieving worldwide fame and success and a CD-ROM project was planned. It was outsourced to Media Station Inc. and I became one of the lead software and title engineers for Disney’s Animated Storybook: The Lion King.

    There was one incident when the built-in bad word filter prevented Michael Eisner from sending the Corporate e-card to a senior executive because of the spelling of the individual’s name. That unexpected issue which sneaked past QA was quickly rectified.
