00:00In 1928, Disney released the first animated cartoon with a completely synchronized sound design.
00:11The innovative cartoon became incredibly popular and received wide critical acclaim for its seamless combination of sound and animation.
00:20This led Walt Disney in 1938 to create Fantasia.
00:24This ambitious and revolutionary movie was the first feature-length film ever to combine animation and classical music.
00:32In 1940, Fantasia was released exclusively to cinemas equipped with the pioneering Fantasound system.
00:40What you're going to see are the designs and pictures and stories that music inspired in the minds and imaginations of a group of artists.
00:50It was the first time ever such a synergy between audio and visual was seen, changing the role between animation and music forever.
00:59In 1999, the long-awaited sequel was released.
01:03Fantasia 2000 was the first full-length animated feature released exclusively in IMAX theaters.
01:10And now, get ready for the next chapter in Fantasia magic.
01:19For the first time ever, with Fantasia music evolved, you can touch music and transform some of your favorite tracks with your movements.
01:27This revolutionary, genre-defining title is a mix of motion, music and animation.
01:33Classical tracks are met with popular artists and a breathtaking musical world for you to explore.
01:40At Harmonix, we're constantly doing research about new ways to interact with music.
01:44When I found out about this project, the possibility of doing Fantasia as a video game, it just blew my mind.
01:50I mean, it was literally a dream come true.
01:52Both companies figured out right away that this was the perfect match and we had to go and do this game.
01:57Just like what Walt Disney was trying to do back in 1940.
02:02You know, we have the opportunity to do that again today.
02:06It's time to put on your sorcerer's hat.
02:08Jump in and feel the magic for yourself.
02:22Ah, my new apprentice. Welcome.
02:27One character.
