Character Design:
With each episode, Disney+ collaborated with bespoke illustrators to create an animation style unique to the story and region we intended to tell.

Social Media Challenge:
The #HabíaUnaVez challenge invites LatinX viewers to share their favorite childhood tales using the campaign’s hashtag and bespoke TikTok sound.
