News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

[Thelazer]

Did we figure out yet why they removed the lights on the barge?

A. Leaving them out in the hot sun all day long without power (or with power) is causing issues.
B. They had issues that need a in-depth repair.
C. They were rented for programming only, because the order for the real fixtures is having covid delays.

Pick one.

Or just a precaution for Elsa making landfall to avoid damage.

It isn't this one, because they have only pulled about 8 out of dozens.

 

[MisterPenguin]

They need to clear out the osprey nests from those lights.

The crane was diverted to take down the castle spire.

Just another noisy photo. Am I alone in thinking these fountains aren't that impressive?

 

[Epcot82Guy]

It does seem a bit chaotic. I wonder if it will be impressive the first time, because there is simply so much. But second and third watches will fall off. Because you start noticing the details. Time will tell.

Looks great

The center ring still looks pointless without any video content on it.

Mmmm.

Maybe it’s not working right. Or not focus grouping right. Or even not finalized.

 

[Thelazer]

Your right.. I can see that now.

[Touchdown]

Mmmm.

Having trouble with image clarity on the centerpiece are they? Oof.

Correct me if I am wrong but aren't they just fountains shooting in the middle of the screen, and not video?

They were always pitching the middle barge to be a water screen.

Video is supposed to be projected onto the water screen. The EPCOT Experience and other concept footage show as much.

Ah, thanks for the clarification.

I'd imagine they may have just taken a snapshot when the center screen isn't supposed to have an image yet? Or as others have said they haven't finished the tweaks/testing yet.

 

[MorphinePrince]

Love the look of the lighting package, so far. But goodness, those fountains leave a lot to be desired. I'm still keeping an open mind since these are technically "preview shots" but, man, I was really hoping for something more grand. Fortunately, the little sea themed park up the street continues to beat Disney in the fountain show department

The show programming is done.
