Destino

Been rekindling my love affair with surrealism and was doing some reading about Salvador Dali. I'd never realized that Dali and Walt Disney had begun a collaboration about 50 years ago that was canned when the studio ran of money (just think!) The project was later unearted and 'finished' by a team of artists, and Destino was released in 2003. Obviously, it's a little misleading to call this the work of Disney and Dali at this point, just because of the huge involvment of others in finishing the project; although it's clearly the animation style of Disney and Dali's art direction , the amount of CG involved probably means the finished short looks quite different to how either originally intended. Nevertheless, it's still lovely, ethereal and poetic. A great example of two very different minds meshing together perfectly.
