Imagination Pavilion???

[kpatches]

Colorvision is going to be the new sponsor of the Imagination Pavilion at Epcot. Does anyone know if this is true??? Any details???

They are sponsoring the old (downstairs) ImageWorks area, not the entire pavilion from what I've heard

I've heard about it, but like ChrisFL says, it is likely they are only taking over the downstairs Imageworks area, where Kodak had all the picture stuff. It makes sense - Colorvision makes thinkgs like picture booths, greenscreen photography where you can be inserted into a scene, etc.

I don't believe they were the much-hoped-for "white knight" sponsor that would bring back they heydays of Dreamfinder...

At this point any change is welcome to the Imagination Pavilion. I am remaining optimistic that new sponsorship will bring new life into this once classic attraction. A new 3-D movie and an attraction fit for Dreamfinder and figment would be gladly welcomed. Hopefully the imagineers will go back to their roots and (as in the case of the tiki room and haunted mansion) create an attraction that is new and fresh..yet will pay a nod to the original.

Perhaps the owners of Colorvision will get a peek at the origional "Image Works" upstairs and realize what has been missing for the past 15 years or so.

Looking at their web site, and the type of work they do, it appears that they are going to be an "Operating Participant" handling the green-screen photography in Imageworks. I seriously doubt that they will be a sponsor.
