Walt Disney Animation Studios

Experience the world of Disney’s Frozen as never before with Walt Disney Animation Studios’ animated short film, Myth: A Frozen Tale. Just as you settle in and enjoy a bedtime story with an Arendellian family, the home suddenly shifts around you, as you are transported into an enchanted forest. Things are not as they first appear, as the elemental spirits of air, fire, water and earth make their presence known.

The combination of traditional hand-drawn & CG animation are choreographed to an original score resulting in a visual poem where the audience is front and center.

Narrated by Evan Rachel Wood Music by by Joseph Trapanese Runtime: 8min 10 sec

Not bad but not great, either

A short 3D sort of 360 experience. It's okay but just a few additions could have made it so much better. Add some basic interaction - give me some ghostly hands and let me rub the lizard's head and have it react cutely. Let me touch the water horse and cause ripples along its skin. Let the passage of my hands stir the ash floating in the air. It doesn't take much to add to the immersion. Without it the experience feels too passive. Instead of blanking out the scene when I'm facing the 'wrong' way direct my attention with movement and sound. There are already a number of tricks VR developers have worked out for directing the user's attention. Either use them or surround me with action - it adds to the replayability if I need to go back and see what I missed the first time. There is potential here, I hope Disney keeps at it and gets better. VR is a field worth exploring.

I wasted $3 so you don’t have to

After reading many terrible reviews I decided to risk spending $3 to see for myself the reasoning behind it. For starters THIS IS NOT AN INTERACTIVE GAME ITS JUST A SHORT STORY. Does this have Ana and else in it? NO it does not. BUT is it frozen related? YES. it is, it’s MAINLY about FROZEN 2 and the powers of the 4 rocks (air,fire,water and earth) it does have some of the characters from frozen 2, such as Elsa’s horse and the fire lizard. Overall for just $3 it’s not bad. I had no issues loading it either nothing crashed, everything loaded perfectly fine. I give it 5 stars only to even it out between the bad reviews but I’d probably give it only 3-4 stars because as I mentioned it’s just a more in depth story about the powers of the rocks. And if you’ve never seen frozen 2 then none of this will make sense to you.

Even if it were free, I wouldn't bother.

For a Disney production, this is a pretty sad effort in so many ways. Seems at times FOV rendering is covering everything the quality drops so much. Whoever thought it would be a good idea dim the environment if the viewer is not looking in the direction you want has no clue about art direction, directional sound or story telling. Its all such a random bunch of idea's pushed together with no art direction. About the only things positive I can say is the VO and music sounded great.

Beautiful

I read the reviews and was so nervous my son and I wouldn't enjoy this short story. 1. THS SHOULD NOOOTT BE FREE, stop expecting companies to produce art and symphony's and give them to you free if its not a full movie. A LOT of work goes into something like this, it may be 5 min long but I can promise it took a great deal more time and creativity to be FREE, stop being cheap and greedy. Its ART. 2. I thought the dimming to you new what direction to be looking for the story was a great directive guidance and my son found it helpful. 3. This is VR people, you are meant to be interactive and move around, this short story encourages you to look in all directions. Super beautiful and the music score was brilliant. 4. Someone said it should be free AND have original cast. It's a story about frozen. NOT FROZEN, and I liked it didn't have the characters. Also if it did I can promise you it would be more the 2$ which I think was a great and fair price for this artwork. If you can't see the value in the short graphic story being 2$ or more then you need to go back to YouTube. Quit expecting things to be free and enjoy them when they are and pay up when they aren't. You are owed nothing, you can be given anything. Listen, over all I think this was amazing the only reason its not a 5 star is I like to watch what my son is seeing so I can appreciate his gasps and smile or giggles more. SO other than not being able to stream from my phone to say "Oh look at that" and be excited with him it was more of a solitary experience. If they fixed that this would definitely be a 5 star review.

Really bad, really!

The lights dim when you turn away from the centre of the action, completely destroying the 360 experience. The story makes no sense and is just random stuff stitched together. After all these bad reviews I've expected not much, but not even that was met. Just disappointing. If you want to see what cool storytelling looks like, get goomy eyes.
