Okay kids, everyone has been asking about it and I just check the ImagiNations home page and they have already updated for 2009
Here are some following guidelines and how to entry and who can enter and what you can design for your submission:
ImagiNations 2009
Show us your creativity by using your technical, artistic, or writing skills to design a ride, attraction, hotel, or a land within an existing Disney theme park or resort. Or create an entirely new experience, a theme park, themed restaurant or unique dream of your own. Original ideas may be presented in many ways, such as:
Artwork/Illustrations/Visuals
Storyboards
Models
Building Design (floor plans or elevations)
Developed Story Treatment- Model
Video/Multi-Media
