The last for now of my trip videos, something I’d prepared for family and friends before we caught covid and so a video that’s finished and ready to share - given the popularity of my last few trip videos I hope you enjoy this one too. In September 2021 we were lucky to enjoy 3 nights and 4 days in Disneyland Paris in the lovely autumnal weather. Take a look around the nice Hotel Cheyenne and enjoy highlights of both parks when they were relatively quiet before the winter season began.

The acclaimed new Lion King stage show in the new Frontierland theatre that is more Broadway than theme park. A stunning show shot multi angle with an enhanced source / clean live vocals audio mix. This really is an excellent show featuring wonderful visuals, costumes and make up along with an interesting re working of familiar songs with some unexpected and very welcome song choices too.

To mark the studios park 20th anniversary here is an edit that goes back to the original plans for Disney MGM Studios Europe park, takes a detailed look at them and why things changed. Take a look at the revised plans, and then go back to 2002 for a full tour of the park as it was when it opened. Plenty of multi angle video and source audio of full experiences of Armageddon, Rock n Roller Coaster and Cinemagique, plus highlights of Motors Action, The Magic of Disney Animation, Studio Production Tour, Behind the Magic tram tour, Disney Cinema Parade and Animagique. There’s also plenty of looking around the park as it was when it opened. This is also my first video where I’ve chosen to narrate as opposed to using text the history section. Call it a test. As I’ve said this could be the plan moving forward, but still using text for facts and figures - and I won’t be talking over the actual park sections or attractions.

A little something I’ve wanted to revisit for a while now. With more footage than previously, that I’ve cleaned up a little, here is a multi angle edit of EPCOT Centers 1984 to 1988 lagoon night show. Audio is a source score / live ambiance mix. Additional footage by Mike Patino, RetroWDW, Steve W and Theme Park Vistas - used with my thanks.

From 2019, the interim Epcot night show. With video from multiple angles and a source score / live pyro audio mix this is the original version of the show.

Shot in 4K, this is the full submarine attraction at Disneyland. Walk the queue, wait for your sub to arrive, climb aboard and then experience the whole ride with a split screen to see out of both sides of the submarine simultaneously and in sync. Audio is a source / induction mix.

The current WDSP Tower of Terror with its 3 new expanded stories. Installed just before the covid lockdown, the Paris Tower of Terror was reimagined and plussed to take the classic Twilight Zone theme and backstory even further. Explore the hotel gardens and the inside, see the full preshow, both floors of the boiler room, then take a ride on each of the new ride profiles and see each of the new stories in full. The on ride photography ban was not broken in making this video.
