Pulling from Walt Disney’s archival vaults—Oswald, the lucky rabbit has become the symbol for the new collection, as the Lunar year of the rabbit approaches. Oswald—the precursor to Mickey Mouse, is first in the history of character animation. The campaign, and Oswald’s world tour will come to life in a mixed reality short produced in collaboration with both Walt Disney Animation Studios, and art director and photographer Julian Klincewicz. The animated tour will begin at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles, and end at the House of Givenchy in Paris. The short film features accompanying global talent such as Madelaine Petsch, Amber Liu and Alton Mason.
