Final Jeopardy Answer for September 18

The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on September 18, 2024 is “What is Fantasia?”

The original 1940 Disney film Fantasia was a marvel when it came to sound and sound mixing. The movie used Fantasound to create the illusion that there was a live orchestra playing alongside the picture. This was done by using a “pan pot that required six people to operate correctly in real time.

To test this system, Disney ordered eight electronic oscillators from Hewlett-Packard. About 20% of the entire budget for the film was used simply on its innovative recording techniques.
