Pan is the Arcadian God of pastures and fields; in essence a nature or fertility God. He appeared in two Disney animated shorts, 1930's Playful Pan and 1944's Springtime for Pluto.
Appearances[]
Playful Pan[]
Pan comes to Earth, coaxing music and dance out of the flora and fauna. Lightning strikes start a fire that nearly burn everything. Pan uses his music to lure the flames into a nearby pond where they are safely extinguished.
Springtime for Pluto[]
Pan's brief appearance was at the beginning, appearing as a spirit. The God plays his pan-pipes to wake up Pluto and the spring. Thus reprising his role as the God of nature and the spring.
Trivia[]
- In Springtime for Pluto, Pan looks similar to The Satyrs from "The Pastoral Symphony" segment of Fantasia, only this time he wears blue overalls and a green bowler hat.
