Short Circuit is a series of American independent animated short films produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios.[1] Similar to the SparkShorts program launched at sister animation studio Pixar, the series is a program in which the employees pitch their ideas for a short and work with fellow employees to create the short if selected, and is meant to take risks in both visual styles and storytelling.

The shorts were released exclusively on Disney+ on January 24, 2020.[2][3][4] A second cycle of animated shorts premiered on August 4, 2021.[5][6]
