Many in the animation community were dubious of claims that 2D was dead, as many claimed 6 years ago, but now as the studio that brought the medium to prominence returns to its roots, we all hold our breath. But it’s not about the medium in the end – it all comes down to story, and in this clip below, we get a good glimpse of the set-up. The feature, which was directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, is in theaters December 11, 2009.

If you’re within range of Hollywood this coming Monday night, consider attending a cast and crew screening of Waking Sleeping Beauty. The film centers on the revival of Walt Disney Animation that started in 1984. Tickets are going fast, so get your RSVP sorted out now.
