HYSTERIA CITY DISNEY WORLD EXPEDITION SUCCESS!

Another successful Disney World expedition!

Scott has once again traveled to Orlando in search of new ideas for his 2007 Haunted creations. Disney World has once again filled his brain with the latest in technology based ideas to incorperate into the new attractions.

"EXPLORATION EVEREST is the coolest forced perspective facade I have ever seen", Scott exclaims.

" The mountain looks huge when viewing it from the romance side and has a real sense of authenticity. The only way I could get an idea of it's actual size is when it's ride car would come into view. It looked way out of scale from it's mountainous surroundings.

The que line pre show was extremely well done featuring a replica of a mountain gear supply shack & a Yetti Museum. Lots of detail and interesting artifacts.

The ride portion of the attraction was a bit mild for my taste, and seemed to be a representation of the Matterhorn at Disneyland. I think younger kids would appriciate this coaster.

The Yetti animatronic was extremely large scale and very cool but way too elusive. I think it should have been visible for at least 1.5 seconds. I did however, like how close its grabbing motion comes to the cars as they pass by it's platform.

MISSION SPACE was a complete body rush that takes place inside of a small simulation chamber. Only a video monitor & a few controls are visible as you are locked into your seat. A centrifuge ride system & visual isolation are used to create an unusual body sensation and an extreme phyisical experience. Way Cool!

The most innovative attractions in my mind were the Nemo at the Seas attraction & The Crush attractions, both at Epcot.

The NEMO AT THE SEAS attraction is a slow paced ride through the under seas with Nemo & friends and is WAY COOL!

The underwater ride features new technology that include some excellent digital animations. It stays away from older animatronic style ride composition and has taken away the cheese factor that has loomed over the dark industry for years by replacing non-realistic animatronics with life like characters as seen in the movies.

I was amazed at the overwhelming response to the new technology and the way it was utilized.

The CRUSH adventure attraction has once again created a new approach to interactive family based attractions. This show takes place within a fairly small building but has a huge response.

A digital version of "Crush" the turtle interacts directly with guests via audio and video systems. The Crush character is played by a live actor off set who also controls the digital animations movements and actions of Crush the turtle, somewhat like a puppet. The final product is almost magical and completely entertaining.

These are just a few of the great new technology based ideas I've discovered on this Disney World expedition, and you can bet I be putting them to work at HYSTERIA CITY in 2007!"
