Production

Wild Waves is the first Mickey Mouse short directed by Burt Gillett, who would direct more than 30 Mickey shorts over the next several years.

Wild Waves was the last Mickey Mouse cartoon to be animated by Ub Iwerks. It was also composer Carl Stalling's last film with the Walt Disney Studio; after this film, Stalling joined Iwerks at his new studio. This was the last short to use the original title card until Get a Horse! (2013), with Mickey in striped shorts looking at Minnie. Newer releases of this short use the new title card with Mickey's face, followed by the title of the short.

In a 1971 interview with Funnyworld magazine, Stalling said that he voiced Mickey's speaking lines in this short, as well as the singing walrus. Mickey's singing voice is much different and probably performed by Walt Disney or an anonymous studio employee. Minnie's voice was performed by a woman who worked in Ink and Paint, Marjorie Norton (later Marjorie Ralston).

Some of the lifeguard gags in the film were recycled from an earlier Oswald the Lucky Rabbit short, All Wet (1927). The short also reused animation of Mickey saving Minnie from All Wet. The singing walrus footage was later recycled in the 1930 Silly Symphonies short Arctic Antics, and the dancing sea lions were reused in the 1931 Mickey Mouse short The Castaway.
