Disney Imagineer on C-SPAN (Must See)

[Mickey'sApprentice]

C-SPAN featured a 1 hour discussion by Jack Blitch, Vice President and General Manager for Walt Disney Imagineering. This event was at a NASA IT conference.

This 55 minute presentation aired earlier today, and is available on cspan.org or on this youtube.com site http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRD9Iswr-uc

It was a very interesting talk. He talked about new attractions and included DVC related projects such as Bay Lake Tower, Kidani Village, Tree House Villas, and Aulani in Hawaii.

This is a MUST SEE for Disney junkies!

Thanks for sharing. slow video and i watched most of it. some interesting stuff but most we have already seen. Was really cool to see a glimpse of the Monsters inc ride in Tokyo.

Thanks!

I thought the walk through of the Little Mermaid was pretty cool too!

I had seen a lot of this too. It included Walt telling about his little girls, and the picture of Marty Sklar walking past the big X that became Cinderella castle, etc.

The presentation included a lot of insight on Disney project management. Plus, this guy talked about Disney budgets for new projects.

Hmmm... I get a "could not load movie" error with the youtube link. Youtube usually works great on my ipad; alas.
