Nice find!! This would be really really cool if it turns out to be a recent project from WDAS. Looking forward to hearing more about this.

If this is the case, maybe 2-D at Disney will continue. Here's hopin.

Looking forward to it! I found this article as well.

I wonder if it'll be in the style of that last one.

Um, did Disney EVER specifically say they were done with 2D animation after Iger stepped in?

Even with all the ridiculous layoffs, the whole "handdrawn animation at Disney is done for" is just complete BS speculation.

Anyway, this is great news.

EW is right on the money!



It must be the new short that Steve Hulett was referring to with "something old, something new".

Definitely. Looking forward to seeing what aspects are old and which are new.

OMG! Disneyjedi, I wish I give you a hug, because I am so looking forward to this. I hope it comes with Frozen! WHEE!

And I hope you all don't mind if I link this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1R-a8yfqu4I

So is this the lost Disney short or is it a new short? If it is a new short, awesome! And I;m glad that Clarabelle Cow and Horace Horsecollar are going to be in it. SUPER WHEEEEEEEEEEE!

Did Disney EVER publicly say that they were done with handdrawn animation despite the layoffs? Oh yeah, back in 2004, when Eisner announced it. But Iger is in charge, and the last he said was "we aren't ruling it out". So something obviously sounds very screwy here.

Either way, this is promising news.

I'm going to the Annecy Film Festival this year!!! So, of curse, I will look forward to see this short.
Is it supposed to be released on november with Frozen, right??? Last year I saw Paperman too, so I suppose that.
If anyone from the forum is going to the Festival like me, we could make a dvdizzy meeting hahaha. It would be cool! =)

I wouldn't be surprised if Disney decides to attach this to Frozen. I'm all for them doing animated shorts. At least then, they'll still be doing handdrawn.

Ok, guys. I'm at Disney World and I just watched one of the new shorts, Yodeling on the company channel.

Ok, basically: The short takes place in Sweden, I think. Minnie Mouse is yodeling and Mickey falls in love with her. He tries to climb the mountain in which she's on. But, along the way, avalenches keep happening because people make too much noise, so Mickey tries to be quiet and stops people from making too much noise to be with Minnie.

It's a cute short and the art direction is based on Mary Blair's concept art for ITA Small World.

Really?! I'm jealous.

@disneyprincess11: I think you watched one of the new Mickey shorts produced by Disney Television Animation for TV. This is thread is for the new theatrical Mickey short produced by WDAS. There is a different thread dedicated to the TV shorts.

@PatrickvD: There is a larger version of the poster here, if you're interested.


Oh, no! LA Times blew out the secret!

In their defence, it doesn't take a genius to see through Disney's little gimmick.
