China at Epcot – Martins Ultimate Tribute 2023 re edit from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

This month is something I’m pleased to have been able to do. A re edit of my China tribute, but with better footage – and better quality – of Wonders of China and far better video quality of Reflections of China with far better source quality audio.

Both films are of course shown again in full, with Wonders again being split screen and Reflections again being a virtual pan and zoom camera. Wonders again has a source quality audio track.

Spaceship Earth 1982 – Martins 2023 edit from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

A new version of my recreation of the original Spaceship Earth. Thanks to new footage we now have a better understanding of every show scene, including the computer area. I’ve tidied up the video quality a little, but it is still very much of its time, as is the audio – although again this is the complete Vic Perrin (yes, Vic) narration without sections missing.

With the retirement of this show, here it is in full, shot in 4K from multiple angles with a source score / clean live pyro audio mix

The Land at Epcot part 4 of 4 – 2022 by Martin from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Just when I thought I’d finished the Futureworld series, for the sake of completeness here is part 4 of 3! See the major attraction changes made since 2005, with Living with the Land and the new barn 2 audio and footage, Soarin’ around the World, and Awesome Planet.

Before the Peace on Earth tag was this EPCOT holiday fireworks special which played from 1994-1998. With thanks to the original uploaders, I’ve cleaned up the footage to present a multi angle video of the festive show. The main show is followed by a little extra  treat, and both parts have a source audio / live pyro audio mix.

Merry Christmas.

A look at the highlights of October 1 2022. Whilst the company didn’t mark the occasion as much as previous years the park was still full of a lot of like minded fans.

EPCOTs 40th Anniversary – A Megamix by Martin.mp4 from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

15 years ago I created an audio mix celebrating the history of the park, with no idea how popular it would be.

For the 40th anniversary I’ve revisited the idea and spent a lot of time expanding and improving on the original. Better quality. More source. More content. At almost an hour long, this soundtrack is a journey from the past to the present and – I hope – touches on every main show, attraction and genre of entertainment the park has had, some well known and some more obscure.

Like 15 years ago, I purposely didn’t lay the tracks in chronological order. I thought it’d be more fun to have a few surprises and play “guess the show/attraction”. I will post a full track listing afterwards (there’s well in excess of 100 main topics and numerous sub topics)

EPCOT Forever by Martin from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

From 2019, the interim Epcot night show. With video from multiple angles and a source score / live pyro audio mix this is the original version of the show.

Laserphonic Fantasy 2022 edit by Martin from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

A little something I’ve wanted to revisit for a while now. With more footage than previously, that I’ve cleaned up a little, here is a multi angle edit of EPCOT Centers 1984 to 1988 lagoon night show. Audio is a source score / live ambiance mix. Additional footage by Mike Patino, RetroWDW, Steve W and Theme Park Vistas – used with my thanks.

Illuminations 25 A and B by Martin from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Following on from last months illumiNations, here are both versions of Walt Disney Worlds 25th anniversary show. Each show features multi angle video and a source score / live pyro audio mix. Video is of its vintage but I’ve cleaned it up somewhat.
