Imagine your a young animator and you were told to animate your favorite Disney character. That would be a dream come true.

God, that is beautiful... We need more of this. I know 2D/hand Drawn animation is a tough medium, but the end result truly shines.

This makes me want to see more 2D movies from this company again.

Don't worry, Eric Goldberg announced he was gonna return the hand-drawn animation.

This. This is what we want, and this is what we've been asking for years. You made a short film, and it was a masterpiece. Now make a movie.

I love that everyone can just animate on whatever medium they like most. Some digital, some Cel Animation. The outcome is breathtaking either way!

Once Upon a Studio is one of the most emotional shorts I have ever watched. 😢

Wow! They really took their time with the 2d animated characters. Maybe one day we can have a full on 2d animated movie again? Wish doesn’t count cause it’s a blend of 2d and 3d.

Please, fully 2D Animated Disney Movie!

I LOVE YOU DISNEY

Now I want to see them actually revive the ancient art of cel animation!

I nominate Once Upon a Studio for Best Animated Short Film.

0:14 Ah. Toon Boom Harmony! I’ve never used it before, but I immediately fell in love with it after watching it used in indie animations. But it’s awesome to see that the classic hand-drawn animation on paper and ink/paint is still optional and practiced. I’ll bet everybody’s hands were hurting after so many hours of drawing.

Eric Goldberg stans rise up 💫

I would die for Eric Goldberg

I really love the animation 2D, it's beautiful and I apreciate the time they took to draw each of our favorite original 2D characters, my congratulations very much

Can you release the soundtrack (plus the original score) from this movie? Oh, and if you do that, make sure to include an instrumental of When You Wish Upon a Star.

They got to live a dream even for a few months. Super jealous.

Wow I also want to be a good drawer and artist thanks to the creators of Disney. I love drawing and painting, it is my favorite, I will always remember it forever.😍😍👍👍.

This is what I like to see! Don't get me wrong, computer animation is... fine, but it relies way too much on perfection and doing things by the numbers. There's a lot more heart into hand drawn animation and it deserves a comeback!

That’s a lot of hard work and sketching and drawing!

It’s clever for animation to be hand drawn.

In a past life I from childhood I dreamed of being a Disney animator… I hear it’s grueling work but that finished product is amazing… awesome job btw these shorts are really inspirational they always make me daydream

This is truly wonderful 🔥

These people create magical and lovable characters

Please release the soundtrack for this short, it’s so good!!

So in the years for them they still animated in paper, while some people animated in 2D, 2.5D and 3D on a tablet. :)

Love From India 🇮🇳❤

手書きのディズニーアニメが1番心に伝わってくる

Wow

We should appreciate their hardwork 👏🏻

The hand drawn 2D animation is wonderful and magical by the artists who create everything at Disney ❤️✏️📏📐

I definitely need more 2-D, hand drawn animation. It’s truly amazing. This is what young animators is dream about, and we told animated Disney characters by simply using pencils and papers only. and I would like to pay tribute to all Disney animators past present and future future for making this short film possible. They are also a part of Disney Centennial reunion.

I love Disney animation!

手描きほんとにありがたい……😭

Love From India 😊❤

Impressive comparison of traditional and digital animation, but the fact that they put Young animators doing traditional and elders with digital is amazing, each one learning the ways to animate. Youngers learning the value of doing by your hand, and Elders learning the efficiency and the easier way to do every step at once, and both ways end up at the same point: Doing art.

Digital and traditional together! The both are amazing ❤❤❤❤❤

Yay at seeing Maid Marian there!

Beautiful

amazing behind the scenes Timelapse.

0:33 As a Disney fan who grew up watching Robin Hood, it still brings a tear to my eyes to see the foxy outlaw and friends animated again in Once Upon a Studio. But I must admit, for me, it's nice to see Maid Marian again. As a kid, she was my favorite character and I wanted to meet her at Disney World, or Disneyland, whichever comes first. Imagine my heartbreak when I found out she's one of the "Long-Lost Friends" and hasn't made an appearance in a really long time. So, I've been waiting since then, hoping for the day when she would come back...even if it was just for one day. And now, _Once Upon a Studio_ is proof that dreams can come true...in a different way. Maybe Lady Kluck is right about, "Absence makes the heart grow fonder."

I want 2D Hand Drawn Animation Back for Disney!

ディズニーの全ての人に感謝します。

This is so amazing ❤

Say, Eric must be so talented! Let's hope he directs a Disney+ exclusive Mickey Mouse series. Plus, who knows? Maybe it could also come to cinemas!

Everything is good 👍 that you made

These animators did a great job. Are they new in the Studio?

This is really amazing and I'm amazed by their drawing skills.. Wow!

BRING BACK 2D MOVIES. WE WANT MORE!! 🥺

C'mon Disney! You have the money. You have the resources. You have the talent. You just need the faith! Give us another 2D movie!

❤

Like good old times)

Wow.

I salute ya alll thanks for this masterpiece❤❤🎉🎉

A beautiful rebirth of 2D traditional cel animation, thrice.

Grazie mille per averlo messo.É giusto sapere cosa c'é dietro per fare un cartone animato.Adoro l'animazione 2D😍

Es hermoso 🤧😊

Nice how did they make the characters pop out of the pictures in the short special? Did they use cell animation to do that or digital animation?? Also, is the picture that Goofy took in the special, is that a real picture that is now at the studio or is that picture fake just for the purpose of the short special??

where is this music from?? i love it so much!!

That was so cool 😎 🆒
