[@mickeymuse2]

Don Hahn is a treasure of a human being. Yes, he really is that genuine of a man.

[@MarkandSandieInMotion]

This is the greatest thing I've seen in a long time. Thanks!!!

[@sarahmountstudios3188]

What I wouldn’t give for a tour like this! And Wow!! 65 million pieces😮

[@BigThreeChiu]

Thank you Don for showing us this exclusive behind the scene treasures and all the magic keepers

[@creativtalentnetwork]

Tears to my eyes. So amazing!!!!

[@Matt_Hatt3r]

Wow, what an amazing collection!! I wish they gave public tours. That would be so amazing to see in person!!!

[@Taydar]

Whilst I watched both parts, I will gladly watch it again.

[@Explorenit]

The Animation Research Library is no joke.

[@Taydar]

@@Explorenit indeed

[@christineyetman640]

Wow that artwork was amazing...natural born talent

[@MrKeenun]

I saw a lot of these at an exhibition here in Australia some months ago, truly breathtaking and so much history.

[@Boshuda1977]

You know I think I'd become emotional in the presence of the items in these collections especially the original animation art! Sublime! 💗

[@holliekeohane7939]

That artwork! No words. I wish they would do more posters with some of those “best words” from the movie on it! Would be a big seller for kids rooms!

[@engagevr]

Pencil tests were really great to see, blue and red pencil and the great work of the 9 old men

[@KevinGrahamArt]

Omg. These are my dream jobs. I’d love to go here before I die.

[@stevej.7926]

Saaaame

[@tracyndiyob162]

so much history that makes me appreciate the art of disney animation more.(do one of all the disney film/tv series maquettes.:3)

[@loridetweiler1345]

How had I never seen this?! If my life was a do-over I would most definately want to work there!!!

[@Lighting_Desk]

Disney really needs to invest more in traditional 2D animation.

[@samuelfarris1949]

An incredible example where keeping a big secret is a great thing. If this had been another studio from the classic theatrical era of animation, they would have been rather submissive about protecting their archive; once a piece had done its job, it more or less was left to one side and ultimately discarded, unless staff happened to rescue them from skips or take pieces home as mementos of their work. Few original cels from the original Looney Tunes shorts - Disney's parodying rivals in the day - have survived by comparison. Disney had the incredible foresight to not leave one small factor of their greater influence skimmed and disrespectfully conserved. Speaking as someone who respects protecting something close to heart, I immensely value this. Regards, Samuel Farris.

[@MasteroChieftan]

Disney needs to release another hand-drawn animated movie.

[@dinodisneylover1]

There's one planned in the future

[@missmanxee]

My top ten favorite classic Disney movies are The Jungle Book, The Lion King,The little Mermaid, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, Peter Pan, Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs, Cinderella and Bambi thanks for showing us these timeless treasures 👍❤️

[@AndySaenz]

Mine is all of those and Frozen 2! It’s the highest grossing animated film of all time! And I love the songs in this movie!

[@missmanxee]

Same I love ❤️ both Frozen 1 and 2 as well as Tangled and Moana

[@kylemorello4787]

@@missmanxee it's always nice to hear someone give a good word for both the classic and new stuff.

[@lorifogg2054]

Love these videos of the places we don’t get to see. Keep ‘em coming. It makes me appreciate & miss hand drawn animation.

[@sherriianiro747]

Me too! It really hit me when I watched the original hand drawn Cinderella next to the "restored" one and you couldn't hold a candle to the new one. Hand drawn has an allure with a depth and realism you cannot get with a computer which in my opinion is nothing more than painting by number.

[@michelletamburro3857]

There were so many pieces of art and even notes from Walt at the 100 exhibition at Franklin Institute in Philly 🥹

[@stephaniebergeron1030]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for sharing this this! It was so AWESOME to be able to see the artwork and the Maquettes. So Cool! I hope they do more exibits this artwork needs to be shared and seen

[@ashleeramey]

I wonder why they don't allow people to tour this place? It would definitely inspire people to pursue animation and art

[@TheStOne1]

Because the pieces of art are very delicate and need to be archived properly. They do expositions sometimes with selected material but later they need to go back to the library.

[@patriciahayes2664]

That stuff is valuable. People would steal it.

[@SouthernsBBQ]

Justin is one of my favorite people in the world. So cool to get to see him doing what he loves.

[@sherriianiro747]

Exactly! Disney artists were the best and the essence of 2-d is completely lost with the new restorations.

[@frazzfam8301]

My dream job!! Being around all that artwork all day ❤

[@MeowMeow_95_]

Let it be known that their previous CEO, Bob Chapek said adults don’t care about animation…. If that’s not tone deaf I don’t know what it is.

[@zabidebeaumont]

It would be awesome if they opened a permanent museum where they can showcase more.

[@amandiux7]

WOOOOOW!!! I wanna work there!

[@jenniferaustin6778]

Amazing!!!

[@lauracrevel6078]

Is there somewhere in US where we can see original arts of Disney studio please ? Why is there no museum ? Thank you !

[@rosst4202]

I want this to be my job., I am the biggest disney historian and movie nerd

[@ashtynhensley]

this is so cool that it’s almost scary

[@RhodeIslandDude]

4 of my friends have been to the Walt Disney Animation Reserch Library multiple times.

[@dougharlow6037]

Don Hahn and Disney Parks, this was simply amazing! What a great video and great place. So special. Hard to compare this to anything because there’s nothing like this. All I can say is Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!! Thanks Note: I just watched Dick Van Dyke reads “A Most Non-Political Speech” by Rod Serling | Mr.Vandy 9 days ago. He is so special I think Disney should do something VERY special for him. He is such an outstanding actor and person and exemplifies Walt Disney.

[@domi1540]

There are even a figures from Atlantis the lost empire how cool!!!

[@snoopyhighfive]

Thanks for an amazing tour and a look at the beautiful art.

I don´t think it will ever get better than this. How could the company turn its back to the art form that made it what it is nowadays?

[@matthewhahn1132]

Amazing

[@aboudaymane8195]

[@denismachado1778]

So cool

[@Broadway789]

How many stories did Walt WANT to do but never could?

[@cjbralph]

"Someone once said what's the value of this collection. And I say, what's the value of any piece of art in our collection sparking the imagination of an artist nowadays to create something new." So he says the value comes from people seeing the work - yet the collection is housed in a secret location and not accessible to the general public. Does that make it worthless?

[@ladanski]

I definitely want to meet the people at Disney.

[@MrJimmy527]

Read Cartoon Transcripts (Like a Storybook): Donald Gets Drafted, the Army Mascot, the Vanishing Private, Sky Trooper, Private Pluto, Fall Out Fall In, Victory Vehicles, the Old Army Game, Home Defense, How to Be a Sailor, even Commando Duck

[@MOUNTAIN-098]

Can't wait to come to disney... If they still do 2d animation... Hopefully..... Maybe?

I'd give anything to be able to put on those latex gloves and look at every rough animation piece they have on those shelves. I understand why they're kind of hoarding all of for themselves at the same time though

[@malvinderkaur541]

All of this has to be preserved as American cultural heritage , this is integral part of creating americas culture and delighti g kids grown ups world over, not that others who followed are not in same league, but understand one fact who created it first giving wings to others imagination, otherwise there is nothing in american culture which brings people together except few things and that list i havealready mentioned several times in industrial revolution to medicine , tech but somehow entertainment got ignored which actually should have a place of recoganition

[@ninetailsclub]

Is there a way to watch the full clip of the Walt Disney Hyperion studios? Morgue like we saw a bit of it in the video here. Is there a full clip for news or whatever it was?

[@ninetailsclub]

I just love old clips for promoting. Or showing behind the scene stuff back in the day. And I never heard of that 1 love to see the full clip of Walt walking around it and talking about it like he would do in the office. Or when he was talking about epcot.

[@ninetailsclub]

Also amazing work. By the way, I love watching your videos with behind the scenes and historical facts. Especially with the animation and making of the parks

No diversity on staff. 👎🏽

[@davidmessersmith786]

It’s based on demonstrative talent and desire to continue the legacy, not a diversity target. If you look across a wide swath of the company you will see diversity. When focused into this small specialty area, it’s not realistic to expect it.

[@TickleMeTimbers]

none of the people who made all of this are involved in Disney anymore. At least, it doesn't look like it. Disney is dead.
