Before the days of a Marvel and Disney merger, one Legendary Artist collaborated with another Legendary Artist to create one Legendary animated short film – Destino. The two Artiste magnifique: Salvador Dali and Walter Disney. One would go on to create the Happiest Place on Earth, while the other would go on to create some of the most eclectic, surreal Art the World has ever seen. Although their Artistic styles differed significantly, the collaboration between these two meant that a masterpiece was surely in the making…

Disney and Dali – Destino
In 1946, surrealist Salvador Dali formed an unlikely friendship with Walt Disney and they spent a short time collaborating on a short film called Destino. Unfortunately, only 18 seconds of Destino were ever shot, but in 1999, Roy Disney reconstructed the entire short using computer rendering and hand-drawn imagery based on the original sketches and storyboards.

At long last – The short film. Two legendary Artists. One Epic masterpiece.

Destino – after the break.
