Hearing voices no one else can hear is not a good sign, even in the wizarding world.

May 11th Update

Sat, 11 May 2013 15:43:25 -0400

Havent done a DCP Update for a while now…

I last left sharing my story about the fantasmic! tour. After that experence I was able to sit down and talk with one of the Technical Directors of Walt Disney World. His name is Flounder and this man is everything I want to be when I “grow up.” He is funny, loves disney and is every bit nerdy about marvel and star wars as I am. It was a genuine pleasure to chat with him for about 2 and a half hours, yeah that’s a lot of his time devoted to me and the small group of people with me.

After this sit down, Flounder was able to get me contact information to one of the stage managers of Fantasmic! and i was lucky enought to be able to watch the show be called from the technician booth and after the show, go backstage and listen to the meeting. What a great experience that was.

Work has been wonderful. I’m lined up to be runner trained soon as well as becoming a trainer for the Emporium!!!! Im really looking forward to that! So many magical moments with guests and my fellow cast members. Ill share one now:

a little girl came into the emporium riding in a wheelchair with her mother and father. It was very obvious the little girl was crying. Wishes had just ended when the found me and my co worker Priscilla. The parents asked if we had any thing tinkerbell. I ran up to our plush area and grabbed a tinkerbell plush. came back to find them deep in conversation with Priscilla. The little girl was super upset because she wanted to meet tink, but she had already flown back to neverland during wishes. They were trying to explain to the little girl that they had to go home just like tink does. Hearing this and seeing how truely devastated this little girl was, we were able to give her the plush, and because tinkerbell would agree, we explained no purchase was required. The little girl was so happy when she got her hand on tink, It was one of the those cuddle hugs with a smile that kids give when they truly love something. The parents were so thankfull to me and Priscilla as the left the Emporium.

So yeah other things Ive done is ride every single ride here at Disney World, Explore Universal, meet tons of characters, Celebrate Animal Kingdom’s 15th birthday, see Merida’s royal coronation, meet imagineers in the parks, and meet some of the most wonderful people in my entire life. and I still have three more months to go!!

“Big Hero 6″ revealed as Walt Disney Animation Studios 2014

Thu, 09 May 2013 13:05:00 -0400

Walt Disney Animation Studios has announced its first Marvel-based film will be released in 2014 called “Big Hero 6.” And they’ve offered a first look at artwork from the film, including a 30-second clip revealing the unique high-tech city of San Fransokyo, a mashup of Tokyo and San Francisco.

The plot of “Big Hero 6″ is described as:

An action comedy adventure about brilliant robotics prodigy Hiro Hamada, who finds himself in the grips of a criminal plot that threatens to destroy the fast-paced, high-tech city of San Fransokyo. With the help of his closest companion—a robot named Baymax—Hiro joins forces with a reluctant team of first-time crime fighters on a mission to save their city. Inspired by the Marvel comics of the same name, and featuring comic-book style action and all the heart and humor audiences expect from Walt Disney Animation Studios.

Concept art showcases an iconic bridge and treasured landmark of San Fransokyo:

Pictured in more concept art, the high-tech city of San Fransokyo combines the lights of Tokyo and the trolleys of San Francisco:

A closer look at the nighttime cityscape reveals a nod to Walt Disney Animation Studios’ successful film “Wreck-It Ralph”:

The CG-animated “Big Hero 6” will hit theaters in 3D on November 7, 2014.

Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Diagon Alley announced for Universal Orlando for 2014 with Hogwarts Express, Gringotts ride

Wed, 08 May 2013 14:23:45 -0400

Universal Orlando Resort and Warner Bros. Entertainment today announced details of the expansion of The Wizarding World of Harry Potter for their Orlando theme parks. The new area will be called The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Diagon Alley, bringing new rides, a restaurant, and shops based on the “Harry Potter” series.

The new area is scheduled to open in 2014, expanding beyond the Islands of Adventure theme park where the existing Wizarding World is located into the Universal Studios Florida theme park, creating a multi-park experience, bringing to life experiences and places found in and around London in the Harry Potter books and films.

“We are continuing the journey and adding an entirely new level of adventure,” said Tom Williams, Chairman of Universal Parks & Resorts. “And we are bringing the same drive, commitment, enthusiasm and innovation to this project as we did to the first.”

Diagon Alley and ‘London’ are already under construction, located in the former location of the Jaws ride, near the San Francisco area of the park.

Guests will be able to travel between the new ‘London’ area and the existing Wizarding World’s Hogsmeade Village aboard the Hogwarts Express - a real working train passing between the two parks.

The marquee attraction of the Diagon Alley area will be based on Gringotts bank, an indoor roller coaster of sorts that will feature plenty of special effects.

Just once piece of concept art has been released so far, offering a glimpse at what Diagon Alley will look like:

Taking a closer look reveals a few details from the area. A dragon is perched high atop Gringotts Bank as a centerpiece:

Streets are lined with shops, including what appears to be Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes in the lower-right:

But from outside Diagon Alley, guests casually strolling through Universal Studios Florida will only see a London waterfront, a facade designed to hide the Wizarding World from the Muggles:

Parked out front is the instantly-recognizable Knight Bus, which previously made an appearance at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter grand opening at Islands of Adventure:

And connecting it all to Hogsmeade Village and the original Wizarding World of Harry Potter will be the Hogwarts Express train, expected to have innovative visuals while passing between the parks:

To bring Diagon Alley and ‘London’ to life, Universal’s creative team is working closely with Warner Bros. and the production design team from the Harry Potter films – just as it did for Hogwarts and Hogsmeade.

“I’m so pleased that The Wizarding World of Harry Potter has proved so popular to date, and I’m sure that the attention to detail in creating the new Diagon Alley area will make this an even better experience,” said J.K. Rowling.

“We are thrilled to offer the legions of fans the opportunity to embark on this new journey and experience Diagon Alley as it was brought to life in the books and films,” said Brad Globe, president, Warner Bros. Consumer Products.

Construction on the Wizarding World expansion has been in progress for months, beginning with the demolition of the Jaws ride more than a year ago.
