Main Disney • Versa (WDAS Short)

Apparently, Disney's newest short "Versa" was screened in front of Snow White at the El Capitan Theater between April 15-21. It's very odd Disney released it with no fanfare and zero promotion. They didn't even post about it on their social media accounts. I suppose, this could be because they're planning on releasing this on TV or Disney+ at a later date and simply gave it a short theatrical run now to qualify it for the Oscars like they did with Once Upon a Studio. Still, it's very strange they've been completely mum about it.

The short sounds very similar to Glen Keane's "Duet".

Disney's "Versa" is about a young couple experience a gamut of emotions from grief and loss to ultimate joy as they embark on an ethereal “cosmic dance of life,” in this personal animated short from director Malcon Pierce.

Carlos Fraiha: With Malcon Pierce and Siggi Orri Þórhannesson, director and animation supervisor of a new beautiful Disney short that I’ll keep secret for now because I’m not sure we can share the title yet. First project completed at our studio in Vancouver and our first wrap party! It was incredible!

Malcon Pierce: Yeah Carlos! So great to celebrate with you!

Haim Mazar: Thrilled to announce that I scored my first Disney animation short VERSA which is now playing at the legendary El Capitan. Truly a dream come true. Big thanks to the amazing Malcon Pierce and Matt Walker for letting me tell this incredibly touching story with music only and without a word of dialogue! I was fortunate to record and conduct this score with LA’s finest at Warner Bros Eastwood stage.

Malcon Pierce: Thank you for bringing your Magic to this project! Your score took it to the next level! Also, let’s do it again sometime!
