play

08/14/17 • 48 min

There was far too much to cover at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa within a single podcast episode. It’s one of those amazing places that seems pretty straightforward on the surface but offers a lot more than you expect. I thought that the resort would be great, but the beautiful resort blew my assumptions out of the water.... Read more...

It’s easy to look at theme parks as the product of just a small group of brilliant designers. Creative leaders definitely lead projects at Walt Disney Imagineering (WDI), but they are only a small part of the picture. Numerous specialties fall under the umbrella of WDI and work together to create the ultimate attractions we enjoy at the parks.... Read more...

The Tomorrow Society Podcast - 61. Rick Harper, Director of Impressions de France
play

12/17/18 • 68 min

We all take the artistry of theme park attractions for granted, especially ones with less obvious work.

It’s been a busy time for Walt Disney World news, particularly during the past few weeks.

Theme park attractions largely began as passive experiences where guests observed action from a safe distance. Even a classic like Pirates of the Caribbean largely occurs separate from our experience. This changed with the growing popularity of gaming in the ’90s and beyond.... Read more...
