Jeez, is the imagineering side of the forums the only friendly side? Tried to get rid of hate for one of my favourite youtubers. Did not go well
Haha yeah I tend to only venture out of here to get updates on new attractions and/or inspiration for some projects to work on. Other than that I like it hereJeez, is the imagineering side of the forums the only friendly side? Tried to get rid of hate for one of my favourite youtubers. Did not go well
Fantastic Douglas! Can't wait to see!A Pinocchio boat ride, huh? Neat! Perhaps it could tie in via bridge with the waterways of Storybook Land across the walkway. I'll be posting a hand drawn concept of Storybook Land later tonight, so let's see how they work together!
I'm working on a script and I did put in live actors as an element to the show. I can switch to a more Ignite the Dream/Disney Illuminations type plot with Sorcerer Mickey exploring a world he created. Would that work?@Bill Cipher -- mickeyfan made a Nighttime show for us -- but I do like the Sorcerer Mickey actor involved at night...mickeyfan do you think you can add that seen into the show?
Shanghai's castle (and Hong Kong's if the castle redo goes through) have stages built in to their structure and this is actually an idea I'm using for my Quebec Disney Resort project so I would love to involve this ideaThis is a great place for shows, like the sorcerer Mickey nighttime spectacular. Functionally, I guest that'd be like the castle stage shows they do at Magic Kingdom or in Shanghai, which I have no firsthand knowledge of. Maybe this stage area in the epic rockwork below the castle could even be shaped somewhat like a concert hall, taking inspiration from Fantasia's symphonic origins. Maybe the various crags could also have hidden musical instruments in them, like the carved animals around Animal Kingdom's Tree of Life.
It's just a placeholder for @LSCreative 's Fantasyland Show -- which right now I don't know what the name is hahaIs magic journeys the old Epcot film or are we reusing the name?
Absolutely -- go for it!If it's ok with everyone, I'd also like to develop a daytime show for the castle stage if we're going that route anyways.
This is something I just wrote out off the top of my head for this. It's very much Mickey's Royal Friendship Faire 2.0 but that's an easy format for these quickey shows.If it's ok with everyone, I'd also like to develop a daytime show for the castle stage if we're going that route anyways.
Very nice!This is something I just wrote out off the top of my head for this. It's very much Mickey's Royal Friendship Faire 2.0 but that's an easy format for these quickey shows.

STORYBOOK LAND CANAL BOATS - Conceptual artwork
View attachment 198758
Here is a quickie hand drawn effort to visualize a new trackless version of Storybook Land Canal Boats in the courtyard/garden space directly beyond the castle walls. Storybook Land sits alongside and compliments the Peoplemover-style Casey Jr. ride, which traverses all of Fantasyland. Meanwhile, Storybook Land summarizes Fantasyland in miniature, with quaint models depicting locations from dozens of Disney animated films. Looking over this plan, I'd like to incorporate more waterfalls and waterways feeding Storybook Land from other nearby attractions (such as the Pinocchio boat ride), really connect everything together.
Casey Jr. is elevated overhead (it even passes over the canals). Storybook Land is sunken below the main walkways. Vantage points along the walkways provide partially-obscured views of the models below (assume more landscaping than drawn). The ride's layout mirrors Fantasyland as a whole; Toad Hall is located in the same location in Storybook Land as in Fantasyland, and so on. It's like a map of the land found at its entrance! Note the observation deck and stairs south of the ride (inspired by the castle in Paris).

Storybook Land Canal Boats use the DisneySea Aquatopia LPS ride system. Three-person boats continually load from a roofed dock and glide freely from one model scene to another. On-board speakers play Disney songs to go with the models. Each model has little scenes which play out for each boat. Using Neverland as an example, pixie dust sparkles and Hook's pirate ship flies up from the waters. The trackless boats will occasionally spin in place and dance around each other. Each boat visits each model, but in no set order. Add arcing water sprays and other fun decorative elements, and the total effect is very kinetic.
This is a solid C-ticket, to be sure, but a charming one, and I think a lovely introduction to the land.
