Fantillusion Parade Route?

[arcsbite]

Does anyone have parade route and stops for Fantillusion??

I'm looking for it in...image format, if that makes sense
I need to plan our "parking" space, and with 4 children in tow, it needs to be a good space, and hopefully get all the stops in for filming.

I know that the hub is a good place, but am unsure where abouts (I've only ever filmed in Paris during MSEP and off season)

cheers

The parade starts at Town square, and works it's way up Main Street USA, around the central plaza ("hub") and up towards the back of Fantasyland.

Depending on where you stand you will see different show stops, there are three of these. The first being "Mickey's Magical Garden", the second "The Evil Disney Villains" and the final "The Happy Ending". Below is which of these stops you will see at the different locations of the parade route.

Town Square - The Happy Ending
Main Street USA - The Evil Disney Villains and the Happy Ending
Central Plaza (The Hub) - Mickey's Magical Garden, The Evil Disney Villains and the Happy Ending.
Near the Castle Stage (to the right of the castle) - Mickey's Magical Garden, and the Evil Disney Villains.
Fantasyland - Mickey's Magical Garden.

As you can see the central plaza is the best place to see all of the parade. If you have little ones I know people have sat on the seating that is used for the "Winnie the Pooh and Friends Too" show which gives you a good view of the parade, however you will miss "The Happy Ending" show mode which is really magical, I would check with a cast member about the seating on the Winnie the Pooh stage as I'm not sure this information is entirely accurate.

Hope this helps,
Martin.

Thanks for the advice, Martin. We`re back from DLP and I got 80 minutes of DV of Fantillusion alone from various places in the hub - enough for a very decent multi angle video I`m editing now

Oh I need to see it! Is that at all possible please?

Thanks,
Martin.

It should be finished this weeekend - details and news as and when in the digital media forum. Do you have access to Disney Central IRC?

Yes I now have access to Disney Central and have managed to download your DLRP Wishes video - top marks it captures the show perfectly! Can't wait to see your Fantillusion video.

Just out of interest what did you think of Fantillusion and how do you think it compares to Spectromagic and MSEP?

Dolby is now serving Fantillusion I believe (thanks :wave: ) and thanks for the comments about Wishes! I have lots more DLP vids out and on the way; have a look in the digital media forum.

Tell you the truth, I was blown away by Fantillusion. The show stop effects put it in its own league. I loved Spectromagic and thought Fantillusion knocked it for six. The MSEP will always be special but just dosn`t compare to Fantillusion. Interestingly, you can see where the R&D for TDL`s Dreamlights was!
