Surrealist painter Salvador Dali and Disney began their collaboration on Destino (Destiny) in 1945. The animated short was painted for 8 months until the second world war ended the project.
In 1999, Roy E. Disney (nephew of Walt Disney) decided to revive the forgotten project while working on Fantasia 2000. Disney combined traditional (hand-drawn) animation and computer graphics to bring Dali’s surreal vision to life.
