Once Upon a Studio

***Once Upon a Studio*** is a 2023 live-action/animated American short film special produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. The short features Mickey Mouse assembling a large gallery of legendary Disney charactersfor a centennial group photo.

Created to commemorate the 100th anniversary of The Walt Disney Company, *Once Upon a Studio* combines live-action, traditional, and CGI animation. The film has been described as a "love letter" to the company's flagship animation studio, as well as "a thank you to anyone in the audience that's ever connected with a film over the last hundred years". Several key animators and voice talents returned to the studio to recreate their respective characters accurately.

Films in this short include all sixty-two feature films, numerous short films, and some live-action Disney films featuring animation produced by the studio, such as *The Reluctant Dragon* (1941), *Mary Poppins* (1964), *Bedknobs and Broomsticks* (1971) and *Pete's Dragon* (1977).
