I wonder how odd it looked when they tested the ride without all the projections
That would be incredibly interesting to see.
I've been stuck inside ride breakdowns at our Hong Kong Disneyland before, including Winnie The Pooh and Mystic Manor, so once the work lights get switched on, most of the effects will either get turned off or continue to operate fully lit. It's a fun experience ...
Whoa I did not expect this to get that much attention and thx for the answer
Ernesto Maurice Corpus Ride breakdowns are the best, some even better than the ride itself.
Mousei Studios it might’ve been dark
Imagine being a kid growing up with rides like this, Disney seems more and more magical with every new edition
And unfortunately, Disney's parks are CLOSED and are losing profit and revenue thanks to a viral outbreak.
Do you mean virus?
Oh.
@Sfm shortz 26 Dream big and dont let anyone stop you 🙃
@@Angie2343 NO, thanks to lockdowns. There have pandemics every few years, most far more deadly than this. This is the first, and I am guessing, LAST, world lockdown to ever occur.
Our school has to actually create a dark ride and it’s so hard with the layout, scenes, cue line, and length of each scene, and MODELS!!!
What?! That sounds AMAZING! I would so love to do that in school.
That sounds so cool
Jocelyn Martinez you should post updates to your channel, that sounds amazing
Lucky!
Coaster Labs SAME
I especially love how they simply used the existing Great Movie Ride queue without modifying anything.
This ride is *_damn_* impressive, and that's just based on watching videos, its gonna be wild to see with my own eyes!
Fat chance they'll ever bring this to Eurodisney. Might have to finally get my ass overseas to EPCOT.
@@LL-kz7ge This is at Hollywood Studios
@@rockytopsports3425 It is! Oh my god. Might actually have to go now.
I agree, it's the first ride in forever that is exciting, especially after the mega let down of the Millennium Falcon ride and I am sorry, I think Rise of the Resistance is City Walk with Star Wars characters and yes super expensive, but also really boring.
I just saw Shanghi's Tron ride and their Pirates and Haunted Mansion, oh dang! Beautiful!!!! And America gets stuck with the 99 cent store version of Star Wars land thanks to Kathleen Kennedy's meddling, when it was going to be Tatoinene. Oh well, spilled milk.
Believe me its really trippy and crazy irl
Great video! I would recommend to split up your voice-overs into various sections, so pauses for breathing are concealed, and mistakes can be easily re-done, as at times it is hard to understand you. As always, super informative, and great job!
This is a really great and constructive feedback so I thought I’d keep the love going. Nice to see on yt.
In the same vein, I'd like to suggest theater classes, or at least a voice coach, for vocal placement, breath support, pacing and enunciation. Your content is excellent; well thought out and well presented, and I was very interested by your detailed analysis. Clearer voice-over would make it even better!
@@TheSockMonkeyGuy If it gets too schlocky it won't feel like UA-cam anymore.
This is such a visually stunning ride!
Because of viewer response I'll be re-recording this video and putting it back out when the parks reopen along with "How Escape from Gringott's Works" in mid April.
Coaster Labs I can’t wait to watch this again with your upgraded voice over. The content is fantastic, but a little hard to listen to. Great job and good for you for listening to your audience, this will gain you a lot of loyal subscribers! 👍🏼
according to what we've seen recently the parks might be closed until June.
Nothing can stop us now, I’ll tell ya how we’re gonna make it happen. Let’s take a ride and spend the day in the countryside! Good times are here to stay, we’ll get away and have the perfect picnic. We’ll sing a song and absolutely nothing will go wrong! Now we’re heading down the open highway and I’m glad you’re going my way, everything is just so peachy keen!
Bob Chapek who what?
Bob Chapek Is this the same Bob Chapek who is CEO of Disney? If so, I think it is awesome that you commented on this video 👍😁
EveryDay FamilyMan thanks I had no idea.
@@everydayfamilyman167 no, this is not the real Bob chapek. Is this your first time on UA-cam? People make fake celeb accounts all the time
Fix Epcot, not destroy it, Chapek! 😡
Having experienced this ride, I really see them going this route with Journey Into Imagination when they get around to giving it a proper update. I keep thinking of the scene in the original ride with all the white props...only with projections on them. It’d work perfectly.
It's a pretty cool and stunning ride, I love it. Cool to see how it works. Nothing can stop us now!
Oh no! I must've hit that TRAAACK switch!
Ummm, the corona virus can stop us...
Avery the Cuban-American you again? And yes it’s sad seeing the virus shut down everything including the great American showcase of ingenuity and wonder known as Disney World. But I hope to go on this ride, and hopefully catch Epcot Forever before it’s replaced.
I had the pleasure of riding this on opening day. Everyone moaning about this has obviously never rode this. I rode rise of the resistance for the first the time on the same day I have to say, this ride is breathtaking. I can't get enough of this ride. It's the most charming experience I've ever experienced.
Before this ride symbolica in Efteling was my favourite dark ride. Mickey and Minnie is now my favourite.
Between the art style set up by the animated-short series, the premeditated pauses in Goofy’s lines for Cast Member responses and the explosive transition, the preshow alone is a work of art!
I’m really gonna miss the movie ride. I understand why they removed it, but it’s still very sad. It was a very nostalgic ride for me, one that brought so much joy to me. Even though I didn’t understand some of it, I still loved the ride so much. I only got to ride it once, but it was so amazing. I’m definitely understand why, I just wish It was still there.
Just got a chance to ride this last weekend and it was so stunning. All the pieces come together really well
oh my gosh i love the little visuals you used to demonstrate certain things
I create special effects for a living, and have an pretty good aptitude for recognizing telltale effect details. On my single ride through, I recognized what appeared as a not-fine mesh at the front of the Donald Duck carnival booth, but your observation of the black components would seem to negate any projection technique. There ARE transparent OLED screens, which also produce the localized light...but no opaque blacks! Examples can be found on UA-cam. The mesh pattern I saw with my own eyes seemed larger than to be video resolution I had mistakenly identified. No form of projection or display technology that I’m aware of can produce BOTH opaque black and Illuminated (solid appearing) white. Maybe a combination of the two technologies? I’m stumped. Such a fun puzzle! Also, I believe the projection surfaces are utilizing one of the many Ambient Light Rejection(ALR) paints that appear BLACK unless projected on, and only then are quite brilliant. Probably one of the newer ultra-flat black paints used on Mickey and Minnie’s heads too. So many wonderful clever techniques at work in this ride!
Thanks for your insight!
Whatever this technological feat is, it's a new trick in the Imagineer toolbox because it's in use at the new Beauty and the Beast ride, creating the dancing dishes in the cabinets from the Be Our Guest scene. My guess is a custom layered transparent LED and transparent OLED.
Sorry to see disney close, we love coming to orlando. We have just lost £9000 on are trip in April ,but that will be nothing comperared to the thousands of people that will lose the jobs in orlando in the next few months
Kevin Broughton they still get paid
@@a_cowwithlegs disney do what about the room cleaners in the non disney hotels , taxi drives ect . Disney will not be open in a months time they cloesd when there was only 54 cases in the hole of florida by the end of March there will be thousands off cases and Remember theres a travle ban on the hole of europe we have lost all are money we will not be back this year
@friends view no the £ 9000 was just for the ville , flights , and car hire . There was 8 of us going (today would have been are first day there) the total with all are disney,seaworld,and universal tickets was £16503 The owner of the ville will not give us any money back, the air line (klm) will only give us a credit for the flights the car hire will not answer are emails or phone calls and the ticket agent will only pay back 80% Insurance company is not happy to pay out £16503
Saw this ride for the first time last night. It was mind blowing! Even though you could see the projectors and see tbat it was a curved screen in places, the effects were so impressive that it you just dont even care... you are just sort of overwhelmed by the amount of stuff happening. very very cool!
What an amazing attraction. Thanks for posting this fantastic explanation of the inner workings.
More Disney videos please! Excellent job.
Rode opening day, was pretty amazing. I left thinking about the future of rides.
All I can say those imagineers in Disney headquarters in Los Angeles are just amazing!
I really am fascinated by those seemingly transparent screens that can display solid blacks and whites at the same time. That tech could seemingly have a lot of other applications and it was created for a theme park ride lol
Subscribed! I love your "how X works" videos!
The part where the screens fold into the trees looks amazing
Dang haha that was a fast upload I love these videos! Great content man I can’t wait to see more!
I was up all night rounding it out. 😅
Next month is Escape from Gringotts.
Ah man I have been dying to know how this worked. They showed some drop screens in The Story of Disney Imagineering that I think are involved here too. They have gone way beyond Pepper's Ghost, and I don't envy their electric bill. Thanks so much for these videos. They are really excellent. Walt used to show off the behind scenes (and Hollywood hated his guts for it too), so you carrying on his tradition is beautiful.
IM SO EXITED
I really wondering how this kind of rides works, thank you for this information man!! 😁😁😁
I can’t wait!!
I went on this ride a month ago for the first time because lines were long they weren’t doing the pre show where the pie gets stuck in the train there fore I had no clue what was going on this video explains so much more and makes me like it more. Thank you!
Very nice information coaster labs I liked the Hagrid one it like a school lesson you teach everyone. keep up the nice work :)
The line for this said 105 minutes. But it inly took about 30 mins for me to go on. It was awesome
Austin Gaming Yeah! That happened to me twice! I wonder if they are just listing the wait time high to control crowds better
BoomerPlayz thats exactly what my dad thought. It happened to me on flight of passage to. Instead of like 110 minutes
it was around 85
Austin Gaming Oh... it took me 5-6 hours to actually ride it and it said the same time.
Another wonderful video! Educational and informative. I don't consider any of this to be spoilers since being on the rides is a completely different experience! Thank you again!
Yeah, I've heard a lot of people say that videos don't _really_ do it justice. But I put the spoiler alert cause there'll always be the one person who'll be mad if I don't. 🤷♂️
Dude! Your videos are great and you are so knowledgable! Just a tip that will make your videos a lot better: work on your annunciation and don't be afraid to record in pieces. Also, try to edit out your breaths and if you mess up a word just re-record it. Keep up your amazing videos!
I've been on this and was blown away! This is the kind of stuff Disney is known for.
Oh cool I never get ride this before but thank you for the information about Mickey & minnie’s runaway railway
I wholly didn't expect much from this attraction but myself, and my entire family, absolutely got a kick out of it. We rode it several times on our visit!
Great video. Thank you sir. 👍🏾✌🏾
My family and I went to WDW for the first time in years last week. I was so happy to see the theatre’s explosion transition in person!
This is the new Disney dark ride. Freakin cool ride.
I was going to be at WDW this week, but as all of you know, its closed (or soon will be). I'm pretty disappointed that I'm not able to go. This ride was one i was looking forward to riding.
I have a feeling this is one of those rides where you have to see it to see why it’s great as a video probably does it no justice
I love these videos
Very well researched and nicely presented as always!
Just commenting here because I want to say I watched this magnificent channel in its baby days and its about to go big. Lovely to see great content make it on UA-cam. Set up a patreon please!
Aw, thank you. 😊
And patreon, yeah, I'll look into it.
I just remembered, I think I did make one.
I updated it: www.patreon.com/coasterlabs
@@AmusementLabs Glad to be your first patreon!
@@LL-kz7ge I just saw! Thank you so much! I'll make sure to put your name in the Gringotts video for April along with all the other perks. :D
This video was as great as I hoped it’d be! I appreciated the little model of the screen, because as I’ve said before even having an idea of how it works I just couldn’t make my brain see it! Thank you for going into detail, you answered questions I didn’t even know I had!
Your video is so well produced, it is smooth and the effects you did add look really neat and well-done. It makes me assume you’re using some halfway-decent video editor, even something as simple as iMovie. The only constructive criticism I have is that in any halfway decent video editor you have the ability to put in multiple audio clips- feel free to chunk your script up into incredibly small pieces! It’s slightly more effort to put in (though with good file naming you could make it easy), but then if you get stuck on a word or run out of breath you only have to re-record that one chunk. Your work is so great that its really barely a problem, but your work is so great that your presentation should match the wonderful research! I’ve noticed you have spoken about better audio quality- while that’s always nice, I’ll listen to someone on a terrible mic if everything is clear and well-pronounced.
Again, I am seriously in awe of how in depth and great your work is, and I know that it’s just a learning experience with technical things. Don’t ever stop- this is quickly becoming one of my favorite channels!
Thanks. Happy to share. 🙂 On the editor I'm using Shotcut. For audio I'm just using my phone (s10+), but where I'm recording matters too. When recording I can scroll back and record over a failed line. I did procure a new mic so hopefully that does help.
Didn’t expect to love this ride as much as I did. Hollywood studios is probably the best Disney Park all around.
I Love this video! Such an amazing look at what's going on here.
I appreciate the technology and give credit to Disney Imagineering for this ride. That being said I don't care for the ride subject itself. Miss GMR!
Very well done thanks
been waiting for this lol
The factory screens that turn into trees are stuck on lateral poles, which are the farthest apart they can, straight up, and then they fold inwards, with the bottom ends of the pole staying in place.
Rasfa seeing this scene in person blows me away every time. I can’t get over how seamless it is!!
I have no clue what you're talking about but I'm sure as hell intrigued.
Excellent content!
Would've been nice to show footage of the carousel transformation as it's probably the coolest part of the coolest scene. Regardless, great vid
Oh, didn't I put some in? I think it's shown at the end a bit more...
I rode it the day after it opened and it’s amazing. It only had couple of glitches from when I rode it. Stalled twice and the Mickey and Minnie animatronic at the beginning didn’t came out and interact with the train.
The Factory Scene is the most impressive thing I’ve ever seen on a ride
7:13 I feel these fountain streams are bent oled display strips. Not moving parts or projection.
Perhaps, but OLED screen, let alone flexible ones are VERY expensive. It's be much easier and cheaper to project it.
@@AmusementLabs We're talking about Disney... a few flexible oled screens are a small part of the budget. You can see the 'projection' is on all sides, even on the back. Also it doesn't deform. It's not possible to project like that.
@@remconet Maybe. I still think it's quite possible to project like that if you know what you're projecting onto beforehand. Pico laser projectors...
@@AmusementLabs Well, you made the video telling us how it works so I guess you'd know...
@@remconet everything is analytical observation and research. Not everything will be correct. I reached out to someone who would know for sure what it is. I'll update you if I hear back.
Rest in Peace
Great Movie Ride
You will be missed
I am fascinated and baffled by the fountain. I would swear it's flexible LCD screen but Disney Insider says it's projection. I'm super curious how that effect works.
When it comes to this I just have one thing to say “nothing can stop us now”
I think the white tones on Donald are like the inverse to the Hux/Kilo shadow effect in the interrogation rooms. But rather than project into space, they hit a surface. Thank you for this vid! Very interesting...so much to miss.
Hm. Maybe. This was just my best guess as to how. Some say LED screens, but LED screens are not transparent unless they paid through the nose for the new transparent OLED TVs, but that wouldn't explain the black. Maybe it's like those surfaces that have micro ridges with different colors. 🤷♂️
16:38 second/third machine from right (blue theme, behind smoke outlet)
The animation stretches while folding away
yep you're right looks like a lid folds down to become a rock or something.
Unpopular opinion: I'm glad they chose this Mickey Mouse style over Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.
popular opinion*
Where does Goofy go when he makes a left in the tunnel and how does he rejoin you after the factory scene?
A bypass hallway connects the engine with a train departing the factory scene. Yes, as sad as it is, "your" Goofy abandons you for another train, and the Goofy you get at the ride's conclusion isn't the one you started with.
He goes into a tunnel.with other train cars waiting to go through a door at the end of the factory scene to rejoin the vehicles.
After Mickey tries to grab the gem in the Indiana Jones he- Oh wrong ride
@@indigofrost4782 Is it the same train car or a different one that rejoins you at the finale?
@@nessquake I dont know. That depends on how many trains are in that bypass tunnel. It may be the same and it may be a completely different one. No idea.
11:49 is where the gear appears also, I love these videos thank you so much!
I am so lost...is the gear supposed to mean something?
I really appreciate this. I've been very curious about some of these effects. At 9:21 we see past the doorway labeled Twister: Enter Here where the characters appear to be actually walking on the floor. There doesn't seem to be any glass or screen but their feet seem to clearly be touching the floor. It's amazing. Any ideas how that's done?
That's definitely a projection. That's why there's the two wall border on the left and right, to add depth. The shadows there are part of the projection. With it off, that back surface would be white.
Now I finally know how it works, but for the record I haven’t been to Hollywood studios at all except for animal kingdom, and magic kingdom.
Oh, no! I must've hit that TRAAAAAAACK switch!
11:40 DUDE this is exactly how I thought it would be done. Other videos just say it's Musion screens or mesh but TOTALLY ignore the black lines
Your doing a great job. We enjoy your videos. One suggestion, try to annunciate a little better. A few times there's run together sentences that make it a bit difficult to understand especially for those that english isn't their first language. No great criticism. It's a learned skill in public speaking that offen happens naturally over time. Keep up the good work 👍
Is it the same locomotive That joins in at the end that leaves at the beginning of the ride?? Or does 1 locomotive share two or so ride circuits?? Don’t know why but this has been a question on my mind for a while
I'm not sure of the exact number, but I think there's only about 7 goofy locomotives while there's 10 groups. ~45-47 cars total, 40 of which are for riders.
Great job as usual!!! For some more possibilities about how the Donald Duck projections are achieved in the Amusement Park scene, check out the videos of Hong Kong Disneyland's Iron Man Experience ride, especially the walk-through queue area where the Iron Man vehicles are on display and there are multi-layer video screens that showcase the vehicles' individual capabilities.
Okay, I'll look I to it. Another guess is the projection windows in the queue for Tron in Shanghai. So many possibilities.
@@AmusementLabs I haven't been to Shanghai's park yet, I live in Hong Kong though. From looking at videos of the Tron ride, the projection window technologies look the same as the iron Man ones - not surprising since Shanghai Disney opened some months after the Iron man ride opened in Hong Kong.
What music did you used @ 13:50? Great video. Just curious about soundtrack.
Excellent content, I have to slow it down to 75% just to catch all the tricks!
The curving edges of the exploded screen are likely each driven by a single servo. A series of wedged pieces can be used to create a smooth curve that can be operated reliably by a single axis.
Exactly. Very simple mechanics.
In the 10:32 effect, maybe is some screen angled video, like the one they used in Spider Man in universal. So u can have some kind of perspective window. Is just a guess oc.
That tornado scene is nothing to be trifled with. I've seen hats and expensive Mickey Ears sitting by the side of the track. Better to go hatless for this one.
I'd say you can still see the rising screen fine, something like a flash of light from the explosion would've hidden it better.
The Donald Duck effect could also be done with a 50% mirror set at 45 degrees in the scene, with a conventional flat-panel screen with Donald lying flat under the window facing up. The fact that the scene is in a box makes this effect easier to set up & conceal.
Why is there a gear at 11:49 on the locomotive, and 12:47 near mickey and minnie
I don't think people know this as commonly, but if you werent in the ride and was just sitting in the room, the way it works (projected rooms) is awesome, when a room is closed, you wonder how it restarts, the whole scene is programmed to reverse the animation and stop at the first frame for other visitors on the ride.
? I've seen some ride stop clips and they seem to have a holding animation. Like the carnival scene will just keep showing a seamless wind animation. Like a loop. After a while it just goes dark in the clips.
Are you referring to things that used actual film? Cause that's the only instance where it would make sense, at least to me.
How do I learn how all of this works?Love your vids
How did you**
Noice! :-D
Are the carts supposed to be in the same place along the train every time they're at the docking station? Because my cart moved closer to the engine when I rode this ride
They would need to be in order to charge. I'd also have to see what you mean to know for sure.
Glad they’re putting this in Toon town! That area hasn’t been updated since Roger Rabbit, as far as I know. I wasn’t born yet :| And that’s the only thing to do there.
I’m old, so I miss The Great Movie Ride!
Wow. They actually tore out the interior of the old ride instead of doin a lazy overlay and limiting the possibilities of the ride? 😮
Good video but I feel there are so many individualized effects left out. And, I'm sorry, but I was not at all clear on what you were trying to explain for the Donald projection. Love the content, eitherway.
Just an LCD with a projector doing a dynamic (profile only) backlight. Fairly simple.
One thing that is kinda interesting is that most of the ride takes place in only two rooms and you just go back and forth between the rooms and a connecting hallway. All of the sets change slightly and the projections change. I've seen a few ride thru videos where the rider held the camera backwards facing behind the car and focused on the hallway between the two rooms. You can get an extra sense of what is happening. It's kinda bizarre to witness. More so than the quick one at the end.
Wdym is only takes place in two rooms?
Is there a reason a gear appears at 11:49?
Can you make a projection mapping video?
5 HOUR WAIT LINE? I'm sure it's good but I'm sure it ain't THAT good.
Posted at 300, but it's usually inaccurate and the line moves quick.
They should just do the digital lines for the more popular rides. Would really help the flow of everything and they wouldn't have to waste space with lots of queuing areas.
There's a new tech where transparent screens are possible and it doesn't use lcd and those other needs like the projector. It can light itself. Samsung has it, you may check it out.
Jhervince Rada transparent OLED, with the benefit of the illuminated pixels, but unlike transparent LED, blacks are transparent. Neither technology could achieve this effect on its own.
Although thus looks fun, I think I’m always going to miss The Great Movie Ride
Can you please do a video on harry potter and the forbidden journey from universal studios
I will never understand how people say hollywood studios is the half day park!!! On my recent WDW trip I spent two days in MK, 3 in HS, 1 in epcot, and a 3/4 day in AK. AK is the half day park for me for suuuuure. I can only imagine HS being a half day park if you hate star wars AND toy story....
mickey's runaway RAILWAY uses state of the art TRACKLESS vehicles
...yes...
@@AmusementLabs I just found that funny. I didn't mean to be rude.
4:47 im actually damaging my brain now xD
