Hey all.. It's been a while.. I've been busy working on Everest commercials and whatnot. WDW is going to have some amazing attractions soon!

Anyway, I need some help from my fellow Disney friends. My wife and I want to plan a trip to Tokyo Disneyland. Has anyone been? We want to know what to do to get started. Is there an all inclusive package we can get? (Airfare, transportation, hotel, passes, etc?)

Just curious. I appreciate your help!

By the way, if anyone is interested in seeing a spot I created for Disney, check it out:

or for those of you who have quicktime or a mac:

Let me know what you think, and please if you have been to Tokyo Disneyland please contact me!

Well it makes me want to go back. It does the job. I love the edit were it goes from test track to BTMR at the 22 sec. to 26 sec mark. That was a great edit. all in all you created a great comercial. Where are they going to play it?

Thanks! It took quite a while to do. I went through 15 years of footage, it took about 2 weeks to digitize all of the shots I liked and another 2 weeks to edit and composite the shots.

Thanks for your kind words!

WOW!!! That was a fantastic spot! I especially liked the effect of moving from coaster to coaster in the opening.

That was awesome the way it kept blending from ride to ride at the opening! Where was that fire-breathing sea serpent from though? That's the first time I ever saw it...

vfxpro how great that you are going to Tokyo! Post a trip report when you get back because I will have to live vicariously through your trip!

I guess my media player is so old, cause I can't get the links you sent to play anything for me

What should I upgrade to so I can watch it? (a free version please)

Great montage! What song did you use?

Very nice clips! Are they going to air that comercial?

Cheshire, the fire breathing dragon is from Fantasmic, I think.

Pro, awesome job. I would love to see it in action too - is Disney publishing it publically somewhere or is this an inside job?

It never ceases to amaze me just how much work goes into such a short span of time. Truly amazing.

I love the coaster melding too. Really great concept.
