World of Color and Silly Symphony Swings Videos

That's it, the first soft opening of the highly awaited World of Color show happened and you can read a good review of the show by Sue Kruse on Mice Age. But i also supposed that you're dying to see good videos of the whole show, right? I looked for you on Youtube and it's still hard to find perfect or at least very good videos of the full show. However Inside the Magic put on line an editing of the different scenes, filmed by Disney, and here it is below. As soon as i will find a video of the full show that satisfy me be sure that i will post it on D&M.

As the wait before World of color begin can be quite long for the guests they're doing at DCA a small preshow with giant puppets, here is a video.

The other new attraction that opened recently at DCA is Silly Symphony Swings. MintCrocodile who always do very good videos filmed it recently, and the first one is at day time.

And MintCrocodile had also the good idea to film it at night, with the beautiful lighting.

Disney's California Adventure Placemaking artwork - Part Two

New artwork about Disney's California adventure Placemaking were released or appeared recently, and we're going to have a little look at them. As always, double-click on each picture to enjoy them in bigger size.

First, this one above showing a room of the awaited DCA preview center - now called "Blue Sky Cellar" as it is installed in the previous "wine cellar" - schedule to open next monday Oct 20! Al Lutz did a brilliant update about it this week, with much details of what you can expect to see inside.

Also published first on the L.A Times Brady MacDonald's article, this new rendering of the future "Silly Symphony Swings" attraction, previously the Orange Stinger. Themed on the 1935 Mickey Mouse cartoon, Silly Symphony Swings should have Mickey dressed as a band leader on the top of it.

I think i've showed you before this artwork of the Paradise Pier makeover. Themed like a 1920s California seaside amusement park with a Victorian architecture, it should be a wonder when it will be completed in spring 2010.

Now, we also have to thanks Mice Chat member BFJen for the next pictures originally posted on the Mice chat forum. There is little doubts that the artwork below will be display in the Blue Sky Cellar preview center.

This one below also show the future "Silly Symphony Swings".

But this one is related to Mickey's fun wheel, the new theme of DCA's Sun Wheel that closed today, as works on the new version will precisely begin soon.

Always thanks to BFJen, this concept-art of the Goofy's Sky School - previously "Mulholland Madness"...

...and these of the highly awaited Little Mermaid ride that Al Lutz described in his update as "a grand E Ticket experience in the 1960's sense of the term". Expectations are high on this attraction, but guests shouldn't be disappointed as the show will be filled with Audio-Animatronics everywhere in the ride, not to mention special "under water" effects and even chilling projection effects in Ursula's cave...

No need to say that the "Under the sea" sequence will be one of the highlights of the show, among many others in this attraction schedule to open in 2011. Can't wait to ride it, really!
