The Disney Afternoon Adventure
@dash Haber
Connecting your marketing campaign to the Disney Parks Blog is a smart approach...very much the same ingenious tactic which @DisneyManOne employed. In contrast to his spots, you’ve made links to in-character blog posts. That’s also clever (nice use of ‘90s aesthetics), though it lacks the amazingly minimalist simplicity of DMan’s idea.

Let’s Dance in Hollywood Land
@NateD1226
Ah yes, that famous 1930s Internet style! Though...1930s have gained a sort of memetic appreciation recently, best exemplified by Cuphead. Tapping into that sort of nostalgic, slightly ironic zeitgeist is smart, plus it fits your ride’s tone like a glove. It seems like changing all of Disney’s social media for nearly a month - all to advertise a ride in DCA’s Hollywood Land - is a bit of overkill. The ‘30s design aesthetic would be inescapable.

Powers of Ten
@InspectorSpacetime
For any other proposal, this documentary-style marketing campaign would be too sedate. But it really does match your ride incredibly well. This is precisely the sort of optimistic futurism Walt would love were he unfrozen today. It’s perhaps a little unclear exactly how these promotional videos are going to be released (are they opt-in? YouTube ads? sidebar ads?), but the content of your campaign is golden.​

The Clone Wars: Battle for the Republic
@spacemt354
Viral marketing = letters in the mail?! Space, you aren’t that old!

Regardless, this campaign exclusively targets PassHolders. It’s a fun idea, content-wide. It’s a shame you aren’t trying to reach a wider audience. Disney loves attracting returning guests, which is one of the possible selling points of these black box rides, but they also love first-timers or infrequent guests. Would that you’d set targets on those markets as well.

The Nightmare Before Christmas
@tcool123
This is subtle to the point of being subliminal - secretly altering the backgrounds in related movies. People who notice this and look into it will create a viral snowball effect (if we’re lucky), and word will spread about the cheeky trickery Disney has pulled. This is some genuine, old school viral goodness!

I’m not a complete fan of digitally altering classic movies, even temporarily. The Special Editions enrage me. Call me a Hocus Pocus purist if you must but I don’t want to see it changed!

Wasteland Adventure
@pix
Just when I was privately lamenting the shocking lack of Instagram walls in this round, you come along and blow it out of the park! Simply the idea of #inksplatterwall alone is fabulous (and I love the callback to the forum's filthy #hipposplatterwall). This is sort of after-the-fact viral marketing, something park guests will perpetuate after the ride opens. It is genuinely viral, word-of-mouth, and if this ride lasts for a long time then your wall will become iconic.
​

Now, whose viral ad has the strongest potential for spread?
@DisneyManOne WIN BONUS!
An elegantly simple idea right out of the gate which is - HA HA! DALMATIANS! - spot on.​

-The Problem-
Disney World's 50th is just a few weeks away! Well, the year of the 50th at least. But with covid, a lot of plans have been paused and are being reevaluated. Though this does give Disney a chance to create something more grand then ever before!

#02 Propose a new Character Experience for Epcot​

EPCOT Center Friends

​

In an attempt to cater to those that want the old EPCOT back while spending as little money as possible, guests can finally reunite with their favorite characters from the early days of EPCOT Center - Dreamfinder, SMRT-1, Buzzy, Mr. Dairy Goods, the Robot Butler, all those guys, many of them brought to life via very advanced animatronics.

Animal Kingdom Lodge Lion's Den Bungalows​

For those that REALLY see animals up close, the new Bungalows at Animal Kingdom Lodge are literally just lion-infested caves with no electricity, no indoor plumbing, and no beds - but it does have a pride of live lions (because putting humans in a room full of carnivorous beasts is TOTALLY a good idea, right?).

BONUS #02 - DISNEY SPRINGS
Using a single sentence (and NO pictures), propose a new signature restaurant for Disney Springs.​

The IP Cafe​

An entire restaurant dedicated to the IPs that make Disney the most money, such as Frozen, Toy Story, Star Wars, MARVEL, and The Simpsons - with a bar, incredibly expensive food, and a dartboard with Bob Iger's face on it you can take your frustration over the Jungle Cruise being replaced by a Moana ride out on!

As an expansion to Blizzard Beach away from the crowded Mt Gushmore, the Everglides was an expansion to the ski resort that was scrapped with the snow began to melt, but here it began to turn to ice, creating a thrilling bobsled 'water-coaster' with banked turns, slippery drops, and heart-pounding inclines, adding a much needed additional multi-rider flume based family attraction to the park.

Bonus #1 - Nautical Point Bungalows at Disney's Yacht Club
With the growing expansions of Disney's Hollywood Studios and Epcot, Nautical Point Bungalows will be situated on Crescent Lake and provide guests with an ideal location between two parks, Disney's Boardwalk, and a variety of Epcot Resort area dining and entertainment.

Irayo

Named the Na'vi word for “thank you," this restaurant highlights the communal and cultural value of eating together while offering an environment with the rich warmth of Blue Bayou but fantastical, bioluminescent set design of Na'vi River Journey, serving cuisine that ranges from international to interplanetary but focused on southeast asian dishes with the showmanship of molecular gastronomy.

05.
SUMMERWEEN SPLASH

Summerween Splash begins on the second to last Friday in June, the same day as Gravity Falls’ own “Halloween in Summer,” leaving Typhoon Lagoon overrun with that town’s supernatural creatures, haunts, and oddities as the tricks, treats, and holiday festivities mix with the water park fun of a never-ending summer.

06.
Blindside Run

This raft slide, like Expedition Everest and Space Mountain, is based on the thrill of darkness, with a winding, pitch black course through mountain caves, sections where rafts are turned around and sent backwards down slopes, and animatronic Snowgies (from Frozen Ever After) hidden throughout as the ride’s unofficial mascot.

Bonus 1
Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Podships

Docking by the Galactic Starcruiser and accessible by skybridge is a fleet of Podships, each one a different make and model but all large enough to house a single crew, featuring wrap around views of the galaxy and semi-personalized quarters to become the ultimate version of this immersive Star Wars experience.

Prompt 11-
HANNAH MONTANA:
SUPERSTAR LIMO

The Disney Channel original tv show "Hannah Montana" will be coming to the Disney Parks in a black box dark ride format, bringing you on a wild limo tour of Los Angeles as you are on your way to her big "Best of Both Worlds" concert at the Staples Center.

On your way to the concert, pass by Rico's Beach Hut where you can see Jackson and Rico, get advice from Miley's Aunt Dolly as well as pass by crazy fans before you eventually reach her concert and get to sing dance to the music, with similar vibes to the Heffalumps and Woozles scene in Pooh's Hunny Hunt.

The black box format works best for this spiritual successor to SuperStar Limo as the screens and the trackless vehicles throughout the attraction will really make you feel like you are riding through Los Angeles, as well as this attraction brings an obscure IP to the parks in a temporary format that will make all Disney Channel fans go crazy!​

The black box format works best for this spiritual successor to SuperStar Limo as the screens and the trackless vehicles throughout the attraction will really make you feel like you are riding through Los Angeles, as well as this attraction brings an obscure IP to the parks in a temporary format that will make all Disney Channel fans go crazy!​

this is the peak, how can we top this? we can't. pack your bags everyone

Scene Ten
The Grand Finale

You're an aspiring Imagineer in an elevator with Disney's CEO, Bob Chapek. You overhear him on the phone talking with Imagineers about a problem in the parks.

-The Problem-
Disney World's 50th is just a few weeks away! Well, the year of the 50th at least. But with covid, a lot of plans have been paused and are being reevaluated. Though this does give Disney a chance to create something more grand then ever before!

There isn't much time left in this elevator ride, but now is your chance to impress the Big Cheese and propose a solution that will earn you a place in the Imagineering Hall of Fame!

-The Prompt-
This round's gonna be a bit different!

For the Grand Finale, we're gonna visit the entire resort!
6 prompts and 2 bonuses!
Each only 1 singular sentence (and 1 picture) each!


#01 Propose a new Nighttime Parade for the Magic Kingdom
This does not have to be a traditional parade, feel free to mix things up!

#02 Propose a new Character Experience for Epcot
Original character, IP based, historical figures, lots of options!
Keep it simple like a meet and greet, or go larger scale like Enchanted Tales with Belle! See if you can top "Joy Frollicking"

#03 Propose a new Walkthrough Attraction for Hollywood Studios
A highly themed experience full of effects, a behind the scenes showcase like Launch Bay, a temporary set up for a holiday, the choice is your's!

#04 Propose a new Table Service Restaurant for Animal Kingdom
DAK has some amazing quick service locations! But it's always been a bit lacking for anything beyond that.

#05 Propose a new Summer Party for Typhoon Lagoon
Every Summer the Water Parks get a special set of games and dancing and stuff. But BB has had a lot more success with the Frozen Summer Fun compared to Typhoon Lagoon's theme of "Bored Lifegaurds"

#06 Propose a new Water Slide for Blizzard Beach
Something big and crazy, something cutting edge, something heavily themed, something small and subtle, it's up to you!

-Rules-
You may use 1 sentence and up to 1 picture for each prompt.
Each of the six prompts will be judged separately with six different bronze, silver, and gold medals awarded.
You do not have to do all of them.
Do as many or as few as you'd like.
The deadline will be at 11:59 PM EST on Thursday, November 5th.
6 days for 6 prompts.

-Tips-
K.I.S.S - Keep it simple, silly.
This is an elevator pitch, not a full project!
It isn't about more detail, it is about the right details!

-Judging Criteria-
Is it creative?
Is it realistic?
Does it fit thematically/visually?

Good Luck everyone! Have fun! Go create!

Keep an eye out for the bonus from some big, angry, and GREEN!​

1. MAGIC KINGDOM - CONSTELLATIONS

The magic and wonders of the constellations come to life in this new nighttime parade, with 14 floats featuring characters representing some of our ancient starlit sentinels, like the Zodiac, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, and Hydra, covered in thousands of HD sparkling lights, accompanied by brand new score.

2. EPCOT - FIGMENT AND FRIENDS

The Imageworks become home to a special meet-and-greets, as the Dreamfinder and Figment reunite, bringing a few new friends with them, who are drawn from different forms of creation: Nightlight the Glowworm (Literature), Mimsi the Painted Spaniel (Art), Encore the Possum (Theatre), Lenny the Owl (Science), and Spark the Vulpine (personified shooting star).

3. HOLLYWOOD STUDIOS - THE GOLDEN AGE OF ANIMATION

Mickey Mouse Theatre and Frozen Fractal Gifts become one, as a new interactive walkthrough opens, celebrating the history and development of the Golden Age of Animation, from Gertie the Dinosaur to Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, complete with an ability to operate a multiplane camera, add your own voices to Disney films, and the traditional drawing lessons with a studio animator.

4. ANIMAL KINGDOM - MUDKA'S MEAT HUT

​

The Caravan Theatre gets bulldozed in favour of Mudka's Meat Hut, from The Emperor's New Groove, a highly atmospheric if bizarre exotic steakhouse with a South American menu tasty enough to get your groove on!

5. TYPHOON LAGOON - BEAUTIFUL BRINY BALL

Both Walt Disney World and Bedknobs and Broomsticks celebrate their 50th anniversary in 2021, so why not bring the characters of the Isle of Naboombu to Typhoon Lagoon for the summer, complete with M&Gs, musical stage show, and a dance floor for couples to shake their fins for a chance to win a prize (Fastpasses).

"Bored Lifeguards"?

6. BLIZZARD BEACH - TUNDRA BEARS FROST FALLS

The Tundra Bears, northern cousins to the Country Bears, move into Blizzard Beach to retrace their ancestral riverside roots, offering a folksy fun slide down the Frost Falls.

Using a single sentence (and NO pictures), propose new bungalows for one of Walt Disney World’s hotel resorts.

MUSIC LAND and MATHMAGIC LAND COTTAGES -- The All-Star Music Resort gains a series of delightful cottages based on the classic Disney animated shorts, offering cozy, warm, homely experiences where everything is shaped like musical instruments or numbers.

BONUS #02 - DISNEY SPRINGS
Using a single sentence (and NO pictures), propose a new signature restaurant for Disney Springs.
