While exploring life at the ocean’s surface with her constant companion, Flounder, Ariel rescues and falls hopelessly in love with the dashing Prince Eric. Although the calypso-singing crab, Sebastian, tries his best to convince Ariel of the joys of life “Under the Sea,” she makes a desperate bargain with Ursula, the evil sea witch. In exchange for the ability to become human for three days, she puts everything at risk. Prince Eric must return her love and “Kiss the Girl” by the end of the three days. Ariel quickly learns that it will take all of her courage and more than a little help from her friends to realize her dreams and save her father’s kingdom from the devious Ursula.

For this film, the artists received inspiration from the Nielsen story sketches that were brought out of the Archives for them to study, and they gave Kay Nielsen a “visual development” credit on the film. • Actress Sherri Stoner was the live-action model for Ariel. • The film had more effects than probably any animated film since Fantasia; nearly 80 percent of the film required some kind of effects work—storms at sea, billowing sails, schools of fish, shadows, raging fire, explosions, magic pixie dust, surface reflections, underwater distortions, ripples, and bubbles. • The last scene of the movie was the first scene done in CAPS (Computer Animated Production System). • The distinct color of Ariel’s fin was created for the film and later named “Ariel.” • Academy Award winner for Best Song (“Under the Sea”) and Best Original Score.
