WDI ENHANCING SPACE MOUNTAIN.....
Construction teams have begun sealing the SM building as installation of new show elements begins inside. For a glimpse of what to expect when the attraction reopens in 2005, WDI Sr. Show Prod. Chrissie Allen took a few moments to answer questions about the revamped version of this classic attraction.
WHAT ASPECTS OF SM WILL BE CHANGING?
When SM comes back, you are going to find the attraction that you have always known and always loved; but its going to be so much better than it has ever been.
Our Immagineers have dramatically enhanced the storytelling from the moment you enter the building. We took the launch sequence and brought it up to 21st. century and restored all of the [film] and media effects. We worked extensively with WDI R& D on the technologies and projections used on the attraction. We also updated the architecture of the entry sequences and have a new score for the onboard audio system.
WHAT CAN YOU SAY ABOUT THE NEW SOUNDTRACK?
The idea is to enhance the attraction with a new audio experience. We previously had a great track and found that people realy, realy, liked it. But now we have made the technology more reliable and gave it a really hard, new bouncy soundtrack that will augment the experience of the attraction.
WHAT WILL BE THE MOST EXCITING ELEMENT OF THE NEW ATTRACTION?
This is hard to pick because we've done so many things in there. If I had to pick one, I would say the Lift B tunnel [a new portion of the attraction after the first lift hill].
Guests will be totally wowed by the feeling of disorientation and even weightlessness in the tunnel. After they enter the tunell, they'll notice that the whole tunnel is spinning, thanks to a great new special effect, as it aims them into space. I think lift B tunnel is really going to surprise people and will be a very exciting addition.
THATS IT!
