Sorry, I had opening night for a high school production of Peter Pan tonight... lol what a busy week. Ok, if you post the ride layout I can modify it tomorrow afternoon... as for the ride vehicle, I would welcome anyone's ides for that. I will be posting my idea for the host in the first room, keep in mind that this host will only be in the first room, as a introduction.

Ok, here is where we are at right now. I think it's good, it just needs to be fleshed out. I have a rehearsal for my students until 3, then I have until 4 to polish this up and get it submitted. Any additions, corrections, or anything else should be added to the thread by then. I will flesh out anything that is missing after the rehearsal. Also, in the interest of fairness, if either Mew or Jason don't turn in something by 3 today, I'm going to add one of you to my bottom three, nothing personal, just everyone else has turned in. Also, unless something changes, CharlieD, you're in there too, you have really contributed much on this project. So if you want to avoid that, please submit something we can use to amp this project up. If everyone submits something really good, I will submit myself in the bottom two. BRAINSTORMING ROOM As the vehicle leaves the cue it enters a room that looks like a college lecture hall. A big chalk board is in the center. An animated Ludwig Van Duck appear in front of the chalk board, and speaks. “Velcome mine friends, velcome, we are so thrilled to have you here today. Today, ve are going to learn about a von of mine favorite subjects. IMAGINATION! Yes, Imagination, that little spark of creativity that lives deep inside your Brain.” During this a piece of chalk appears to float before the board and writes IMAGINATION 101 on the board. Then it changes into a brain. “One little spark of inspiration, Is at the heart of all creation. Right at the start of everything that's new, One little spark lights up for you.” “You see, deep inside each and every one of us is a spark of creativity waiting to burst forth and join the world. All you need is a little inspiration. Here, I vill show you.” “Two tiny wings, eyes big and yellow. Horns of a steer, but a loveable fellow. From head to tail, he's royal purple pigment. And there--Voila!--you've got a Figment!” As he describes this the brain starts to separate and change shape, creating the component of figment, that recombine to form him on Voila!. Figment speaks: “ OH WOW, a whole bunch of new people to meet, hello everyone!” Figment’s face appears on the screens on everyone’s vehicle. Ludwig, “Figment, I was just about to introduce these people to the other professors, and teach them about the creative process. Would you like to help us?” Figment, “Oh can I , can I, can I? I know all about imagination… “Imagination, Imagination A dream can be a dream come true, With just that spark in me and you.” Ludwig, “That right figment, that’s right. Ok, you can help us teach these students.” Figment, “HURRAY!” Figment flies around the chalk board, exploding into fireworks occasionally. Ludwig, “Today’s lesson will be about creating your own Spark of Imagination. We’ll start by brainstorming an idea for a new creature.” “First we will start, with different creatures And pick apart, their different features Then add them up and then a new idea’s forming… So let’s get started, on Spark brainstorming.” On the screen a selection of about 20 different animals pops up. This is taken from over 40 in the system, so that every time you get different choices of animals. By selecting from 2-4 animals, you will create an outline of a Spark on your screen. Figment, “Oh WOW, look what they’ve created, what incredible sparks!” Ludwig, “That’s just the beginning, they need to add more of their creativity to this spark before it comes to life. Let’s send them into the ART room to add in a little color!” Figment, “FOLLOW ME!!!” “Imagination, Imagination Just follow me, and you will see… What you can do, creatively!” ART ROOM As the vehicle approaches the room, a mist projection ahead shows the Seurat masterpiece Sunday Afternoon On the Island of La Grande Jatte. (here's the painting for reference) http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/fi.../03/sunday.jpg As the vehicle gets closer, the painting grows larger and larger, showing the detail on the dots that make up the painting...until it appears that the vehicle has actually entered the painting through the mist of large abstract colored dots. On each side of the black room, are various famous paintings floating in mid air. The Mona Lisa reaches out and waves and winks, the people in Hopper's Nighthawks move about in the diner, Munch's Scream runs through the painting to scream silently, Warhol's soup can gets opened by a can opener... http://forums.wdwmagic.com/album.php...ictureid=13115 As each painting comes to life, so do the nearby sculptures of Michaelangelo's David and Degas' Ballerina. Laser, light and LED effects twinkle and swirl in the background. The vehicle rounds the corner to view a lovely shimmering three dimensional scene of Monet's Waterlillies on the right, and Dali's surreal timepieces appear to melt before your very eyes on the left. And then, up ahead is an AA of Vincent Van Gogh, standing before a moving backdrop of Starry Night, painting a version of Sunflowers on the easel before him. http://forums.wdwmagic.com/album.php...ictureid=13116 His brush elicits magic lighting effects that splash color around the LED room. He sings With practice and Imagination You can design a Unique Creation! Just take your Dreams, Add Paint, and Skill and Heart. and then like Magic! A Masterpiece of Art! Imagination Imagination Color your Dreams You don't even have to wait! To bring to life The Spark that you create! As he sings, the stars from the painting in the background are moving and swirling, and coming to life, cascading across the whole room. Ludwig appears on the screen, “Ok boys and girls, now you’ve got to color in your Spark, so what’ll it be?” “Red from a rose, or sunny yellow A vibrant pink, or blue that's mellow Perhaps some orange or the purple of a grape? With color added, your spark takes shape!” On the screen in the vehicle, the Spark asks you to now add color to your creation. You can choose between standard colors like, red, purple, green, brown, or fancy patterns like pink and purple cheshire cat stripes, or orange and yellow polka dots, or even a rainbow! Ludwig, “Excellent choices, but now I think we’d better give your Spark a voice to match all that color. Figment, will you lead our guests into the Sound and Music room?” Figment,, “ Sure thing, FOLLOW MEE!!!!” Imagination, Imagination So many colors all around But now let’s go, and add some sound!” MUSIC ROOM In the music room, we see an animatronic of Mozart with a bunch of pictures of musical instruments, old and new, behind him. Next to him is Figment dressed as a dancer. This is his outfit: click here. The outfit will be black instead of gold. The leotard-like bottom will be replaced by a skirt. He will also be wearing black pantyhose. The shoes will be black, as well. Rowlf the Dog will make a cameo appearance playing "One Little Spark" on the piano. After leaving the music room, you enter the storytelling room. WALT’S ROOM The last scene would feature the man who possessed one of the greatest imaginations of all time-Walt Disney. As you enter the scene, your vehicle rotates to face what at first us just an empty space. As soon as you enter, a spotlight shines on a portrait if Walt. Your guide (whoever is our Dreamfinder-like figure) introduces Walt. "There is one man who used his imagination to reinvent the world if animation and theme parks. He gave life to some of the most well known characters of all time. This man is Walt Disney." As he speaks, images of the Disney Parks castles, and the Fab 5 come up on a large screen surrounding Walt. Your vehicle comes to a halt and a light shines in Figment, who is next to the portrait. "Thats right! Walt was even the mastermind if where you are right now!" *Picture of SSE appears on screen* Our guide says, "I bet those of you who already knew who Walt was have always wanted to meet him. Well, I think we an through the power of our imaginations!" As soon as he says this, the portrait of Walt comes to life. He says: "The greatest tool available to humans is that if their imagination. Whether it's building theme parks, making movies, or creating a game on a rainy day; we use our imaginations to do everything. As long as we have our imagination, we can do anything. As I like to say, if you can dream it, you can do it! Nothing is impossible. I actually find it kind of fun to do the impossible." *Walt goes back to portrait mode, all images stay on screen as our guide and Figment lead us out with song.* As he talks, images of characters, old and new, as well as theme parks go up on the screen. A name is chosen for your spark as you exit.

You forgot the put a link for the base picture of Figment's outfit in "click here." Overall, this was a good post.

Ok, sorry bout the wait for my room; ibeen out all week, travelled back, and been working since i got back, so i've been trying to sneak all this together XD

Invention room, scene:
as the guests move into the room, they hear the echos of song from the previous room become drowned out by noises of progress and the labours of inspiration: machinery and electricity, weird and wonderful sounds fill the air as the guests move into a dimly-moderately lit room of moving, jolting, wonderful parts! in the background, on the walls, is a rube goldberg type of machine, of interlocking gears, cogs, wheels, cranks, pulleys, electrical wires, electrodes, gizmos, and gyros, alll working and whirring together... puffs of steam emit from stacks, and lights flash all around.

hanging around, and placed around the floor, are various inventions that have made history, and should be noticeable to guests; many of these will actually be in parts, and begin to assemble themselves, such as a simple gas(or steam) engine put its basic parts together(by means of animating machinery, pistons, wires, etc, to pull the parts together). other, that may have been inspired by odd sparks, will be seen on random old CRT Tv screens, and show between the spark and the finished prject, (ex: seeing an animation of a man pulling prickly seeds off his dogs fur, a spark, and then we see velcro products)

Show:
as we reach the center of the room, we see a man sitting at a bench table, with several old lightbulbs illuminating the scene. as we get closer, we hear the increasing louder humming of the figure, and he beings to sing:

“When there's a problem... and I can't solve it
I take the notion, and then revolve it
A touch of science with a dash of Fantasy!!!
And then, “Eureka!” It comes to me”

As he's finishing, he turns around, holding an odd device in his hands, connected to something previously unnoticed on the bench (very observant guests will recognize the device attached to dreamfinder's balloon that figment was created in, just with a new clear pipe where figment appeared back to the vehicles; otherwise, its just a cool machine to everyone else :))

We realize it's edison, and he welcomes:

'Hello there! I'm Thomas Alva Edison, and I believe you are all up coming Imaginators, correct? Well! Welcome to the shop of Invention; here you see many wonderful things that make our world what it is today, thought up and created by many wonderful Inventors and Innovators that had a spark of inspiration!* in fact, i've had many of my own, but of course, all sparks don't come without their work! (he turns to one side)

an old projector (of edison's own design) begin to show a short old time movie at high speed, showing edison (a look alike) trying hard to create his famous lightbulb; he tries many maaterial, including humourous ones, like licorice, or stick. he finally comes up the right one, and the lightbulb lights, and he goes ereka! (al la silent film)

over the edison AA, a previously unlit bulb lights with a 'ding!' and he looks up and laughs.

turning back to teh guests, he chuckles as he says, well, as you see, it take many tries sometimes, to get your sparks to ignite; I took several thousand! But i remembered the key: never to give up!

*now, you are all here to create your very own sparks! using this machine here, that i've been tinkering on for a friend (inside chuckle (^^) ) you can all take those parts that you've been working on, and send them to this wonderful device here! now, if you'll just turn it on (as he says that, a handle will appear on the interactive displays) and get the magic started!

guests can push a button, or maybe act as moving a handle, etc, and all of a sudden, their 'ideas' head over to the machine. several clear pipes under teh car, and little antennae will begin to light, maybe there'll be fluffy material/or smoke lit up in teh pipes to insinuate the material heading to the device. the little handheld in edison's hand lights and sparkles, and the other machine there'll be a similar ding to before, and the pipe out of the top will beign to do the same effect, and send their sparks back, with great effect. on their screens, a little figment appears and joyously shouts, and greets their creators.

Edison laughs, and then says Now enjoy your sparks, a consider yourselves new Inventors and Budding Imaginators! he begins to sing, as teh guests head out:

And now your spark is almost ready...
So just sit tight, and just hold steady...
You flip the switch, and the next thing that you know....
Your sparks alive! Watch! (in figments' voice) HeeeeelllOOo!

(i'm not good with tunes eitehr; tried to work with your orig idea, fractl)

now, it looks long, but the actual show scene should only be a couple minutes... if it is, all that's important is the initial introduction, and teh creation (ie, cut out teh movie scene, and possible extraneous lines, like about his working ont eh machince, etc) I marked the part to cut out by star.

now, i know this would go well with pics, but i have the worst trouble with getting them to work, and i have to get to work today. i'll try to sketch some more, and take phone pics with the ones i have to send; if anyone can get pics from their phone and would like to try, drop me a text to my phone, and i'll try to send them the one's i can (i'll post it; i'm not much of a phone person, so i won't bug you 4074052024, just give me aline who you are by txt, and i'll reply w/ or w/out pic)

ALright! good luck guys! i love the project!

Btw, I jsut wanted to say guys, I apologize for not having been the most productive person on the team; I know I haven't really contributed much overall, and whenever I do, it tends to be at the last minute.

No excuses, I'm bad at time management, which doesn't help when i go to school full time and work long hours to support that! XD I just have a full schedule that changes alot (like this week i had vacation and was out mostly) but i just wanted to apologize about all of that. With things being less hectic lately, I've been trying to ge more involved, but I just wanted to let you know I'm sorry. since sorrys dont mean much, jsut action, I will be doing my part to devote more time between crazyness to this! :)

Otherwise, guys, i couldn't have asked for a better team! :D you are all wonderful, full of ideas, and it's worked well so far! (plus, you all seem to be so busy and amazing at what you really do elsewise, and i salut you! :D)

good luck to us either way, and I hope it goes well this time; i gotta head out and work for the mouse :)

Hey guys, I'm going to post in the main thread. I appologize if anything is changed or misrepresented. I see that Jason actually did turn in and I missed it, and Mew got his in as well. I will be nominating myself and CharlieD. My rationale is that if the project loses, and I was the leader, I should go down with the ship. Charlie, really didn't contribute much, for whatever reason. I hope we're all ok with that! If I'm not allowed to choose myself, I will have to pick someone else, I hope no one's feelings are hurt. Thanks for letting me be team leader. Instead of a pool, I think we should just choose in this thread, since there are only a few people left who haven't been.

It is submitted, and I feel badly, for I rushed to get it done.

I have had work, theater, and my brother in law to be's bachelor part in AC, which I am late leaving for. I hope I did a good job, and I'm sorry if anything you did got left out or changed.

Good luck team, I think we have a great shot at winning this, our project feels like a real successor to the original ride and its intentions.

Thanks everyone, this was a real team effort, I apologize for my lack of editing, but time just got away from me. I am really proud of this team and the consistent effort from everyone. Great job, and let's keep going, 5 and 0 baby!!!
 

WondersOfLife

Blink, blink. Breathe, breathe. Day in, day out.
a new imagination epcot ride. with dreamfinder! make imagination come back to an hour-long queue line! :sohappy:

Maelstrom was made to be family friendly, and they cut back alot of affects, and it was supposed to splash you more. As they can see now, the "family-friendly" now goes on Mission Space, Soarin', honey i shrunk the audience, and Test track. Amazingly families don't go on imagination! ;) Or universe of energy anymore! Not to mention the 3 cabelleroes never even has more than 5 minutes of a wait time... The only "family-friendly" rides families go on are all the thrills, and the seas with nemo and friends. so maelstrom needs a renovation, because i'm tired of waiting 30 - 45 minutes in line for a 30 second ride. Or having to get a fastpass for a 40 second ride... think, the troll theme is popular already, right? imagine how much more people would come if it was updated, and had some new animatronics, (maybe cut out the random pollar bear scene) and make the ride longer, and let us get wet! :D

ya'll just told me to look at martin's video on the wonders of life, to make me remember how bad it was and why it was horrible. When i saw this, i noticed that it had a LOT more to offer than i remember! http://vimeo.com/5777175 <--- part 2. It makes me want them to bring it back in it's original form! Also, i don't remember frontiers in medicine being so big.

Where do you buy your crack and how can I get some :-)

Serilously though, did you mean to post this in a different thread?
