    I'm really excited for this series. I'd imagine there are all kinds of interesting jobs at WDW and DLR that most of us have never thought about.

    I was hoping they'd show us more of the specifics of what it's like to drive a float. For example, how do they see where they are going?

      I agree - the part he shared about the cork board and stuff was interesting but I would have loved some more technical details/behind the scenes. Also would have been interested to hear which floats are harder or easier to drive - I am sure some we could guess but I wouldn't be surprised if there were some that people think would be easy but aren't due to certain aspects

      That's a secret :)

      If you look at the rides, you will see certain pieces that aren't quite as bright as other pieces of near it. Those are usually the ones that have the mesh type piece. It doesn't look so bright because you see all the dark holes in it from our side. But from inside where it's darker you can see out just fine.

      Basically, the bigger the float, the more difficult it is to drive..

    This was so interesting!!! And Play Parade is my favorite parade. I wish they’d bring it back to DHS.

    This was great, it's just the kind of thing my kiddo (now 14 and set on the Disney College program) would want to watch. Thank you for sharing it!

    What a fantastic interview! I never knew people drove the floats (never though about it, I assumed they were remote controlled).This guy clearly enjoys his job!

    That's awesome. I've always wanted to be a Soundsational Snare Drummer... but I played bass in high school and haven't touched a drum in almost 2 years, so when they did auditions this September, I was excited, then bummed. But maybe I can join a parade in THIS way. It never occured to until I saw Pixar Play Parade this summer, that people do have to drive those things. In fact, the only reason I realized that is because where I was standing, the sun went through the screen they see out of and I saw someone inside the float. These people are truly some awesome magic makers.
    Btw, I can already tell that this is going to be an amazing series! Thanks to all those at the Dis working to make these videos. Very informative and amazing.

      Disney Magic doesn't reveal, but a video of the Electrical Parade back in the 80's is on youtube and it shows inside the Floats :)

    This is really, really COOL! Thank you for sharing this video! I feel like Disney is a well oiled machine. Everyone knows their jobs and roles and does it to the best of their ability. I wish all cast members would get the credit they deserve, everyone has a piece in creating the magic!

      If you look at any Disney parade float hard and long enough you get a really good idea of where the driver is and how they see. Some of the floats like the Mickey and Minnie one in Festival Of Fantasy parade at WDW in Florida look like they have cameras hidden on them that allow the driver inside to see where they're going, most likely using television monitors.. Others have mesh areas that look like windows the driver sees out of..

    Interesting. What do you do at the park when a parade is not on?

    • @disneydancer99
      @disneydancer99 5 років тому +1

      A 2 hour lunch break no joke!!!

    • @disneydancer99
      @disneydancer99 5 років тому +1

      Or we just sit and wait for another performance... sometimes a company would buy out the park and we would have midnight parades for the group
