Guy Edits Disney Characters Into His Photos And The Result Looks Like They’re Having A Blast (30 Pics)
Interview With ArtistDisney has been a big part of many people's lives. Children and adults enjoy their cartoons, movies, and series. They managed to create a magical world where almost everyone can find someone to relate to, a place they love, or a story that captures their hearts.
Samuel MB, artist, actor, and primary school teacher, mixes fantasy and reality by placing popular Disney characters in his photos. In the pictures, he hangs out with his favorite characters like Simba, Ariel, Hercules, and many more. He uses Photoshop to create these images and they can be pretty funny.
"When I was a kid, I was a fan of the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit? I liked the combination of animation and live-action. Years later, I learned to use Photoshop, and now I like to create photos by combining cartoons with real life," the artist told Bored Panda.

The artist shared that he also gets inspired to create these combined photos after watching a Disney movie: "Inspiration comes to me watching Disney movies. When I know what photo I want to create, I just have to use Photoshop and create magic."
"My father bought Photoshop when I was a teenager. He was always editing photos, and I liked what he did. So one day I decided to do the same," Samuel told Bored Panda when asked how he decided to learn Photoshop.
Samuel also shared that it takes him about an hour to create a simple image, but more difficult ones can take up to five hours to make.
The artist shared what his favorite Disney movie is and what character does he likes the most: "It is difficult to answer. If I have to choose one, I choose The Little Mermaid and Ariel."
Samuel shared that he would love to become an actor and film director. He would like to create a short movie soon. You can check out some of his work on his YouTube channel by clicking here.
He said that the main idea behind his creative projects is fun: "I like to create these photos because I have fun, and other people have fun too."
"Many people love my photos. They tell me that my photos remind them of their childhood. They would like to meet Disney characters in real life," shared Samuel when asked what are peoples reactions to his work and edits.
"I have loved Disney since I was a kid. Their stories, their characters, their songs. Those films have been part of my childhood. For that reason, creating these Disney photos is now so much fun."

What does the little brown ape have over their head? Seriously, this is more fun than a barrel of monkeys!
Really? You couldn't have at least asked? Would have said no anyway.
I love these! I can't wait to see more of them. These are so well done.
I love them. I would definitely hang out with certain Disney characters. Others, not so much.
Really I couldn't chose just one picture. They are incredibly well made and so much fun to look at them. I'd love to learn that talent and do it with my own picture!
This is one of my favourite posts to date! I have been smiling since I started on the first one!
An excellent post, Samuel has incredible talent, his future will be great, as he fulfills his goals, thanks for sharing !!!
Very well done, and he isn't bad looking either. Hey, Disney couldn't sue over this...right? lol
I am just distracted by how much he looks like my brother in law. They could be twins.
I wish I could peak into the creator's mind and watch it work. I cannot imagine THE IMAGINATION it requires to put these compositions together. How his mind must move into that of the animated image in order to decide just how the finished image will be. I guess that is the difference between true artists and the rest of us... The ability to picture, hear, see a finished product and how to make it a reality. I am truly envious.
Disney is very strict and protective of their intellectual property. Did this guy obtain permission and approval from them to use their images and characters in his "art"? They can sue him for copyright infringement. 🤷 I once tried to design a program cover for an amateur production of Beauty and the Beast. Production team paid all the license fees etc but we were strictly not allowed to use any other related images or media in our designs. We were only given one or two very basic and plain design provided by them to use and strictly not allowed to change colour or edit the image and design at all.
