Disney dtv title

DTV was a series of music videos created by Walt Disney Productions in 1984 using a combination of popular music and footage of vintage Disney animation and shown The Disney Channel and/or the Family Channel (as the network did not air commercials, sometimes in Canada its commercial break for the Family Channel at this time). The series was created out of the trend of music videos on cable channel MTV, which inspired the name of this series. Sixty fifteen-minute episodes were created, four videos each, with 240 music videos in all. Later, the videos were shown individually as filler material between other programs. They also as being the focus of several primetime television specials. Home video collections were also released on the VHS, Beta, CED Videodisc, and Laserdisc formats. After the first run of DTV, in 1989, a second series was produced known as DTV².

The main title music, known as "RPM", was created in 1981 by a recording company called Network Music.

In the opening of DTV, a cheese-like moon zooms out to reveal a black background with musical notes. A silhouette of the Mickey Mouse head rises from the moon, and the moon exits below the screen. The letter D (in the corporate Disney font) and the letters TV appear and zoom out to attach the head. Finally, after a few seconds, we zoom into the head and revealing several cartoon clips.

DTV ceased airing in 2002; however, a handful of the music videos can currently be viewed on YouTube.

From 2009 to 2014, Disney revived the DTV idea in the form of Re-Micks, a similar series of short music videos syncing clips from the classic shorts to pop songs.

Television Specials[]

After the success of DTV, Disney had aired three DTV television specials on NBC in 1986 and 1987: DTV Valentine (retitled as DTV Romancin'), DTV Doggone Valentine, and DTV Monster Hits. All three specials had its own theme of music: DTV Valentine focused on love and romance music; DTV Doggone Valentine focused on love songs with a tribute to Disney's dog and cat characters; and DTV Monster Hits was focused on Halloween themed music and footage.

Note: Mickey's Happy Valentine Special, produced in 1989 as part of The Magical World of Disney, follows a similar theme to these programs.
