The Land 1 of 3 – 1982 – Ultimate Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Here we go, the first of a brand new history trilogy. I thought it was time I covered this pavilion properly and group all the attractions in the correct time period.

Travel back, way back, to 1975 to see the origins of a pavilion based on the Land in the EPCOT Theme Center. Move through 1978’s Ecology pavilion and see how and why the direction and design changed, including early designs for the 1982 pavilion. This is followed by a full construction section of the pavilion itself and the interior attractions, through to October 1982. Next, is a full 1982 layout tour of the pavilion and the various attractions within.

Take a tour of the original Kraft pavilion, shot in the late 80`s and early 90`s, the food court and the farmers market. This is followed by a full multi angle video ride on Listen to the Land with a good live audio mix. Next, line up in the holding area for The Kitchen Kabaret, with the whole show presented as a new high quality multi camera edit with full source audio. Once the show has ended, enter The Harvest Theatre and watch in full Symbiosis, with a clean live audio mix.

65 minutes long, with parts 2 and 3 to follow soon. Enjoy!

Finally, see the whole recent preshow video tripod shot in HD including the full slogan video, the full What Will You Imagine preshow and the full introduction safety video with a clean ALD/induction audio mix.

To finish, walk out for a look at Epcots fountain garden at night. Main show shot in Disneyland in 2009 with permission.

Dinosaur at DAK – Ultimate Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Go back in time 65 million years, or to the mid 90`s to see how Animal Kingdoms opening E Tickets developed and how the indoor EMV attraction came from an outdoor family ride. After a full concepts and construction section, learn the story to the ride with a lot of story and ride details often missed by guests. Then it`s on to a time travel trip circa 1998 for a recreation of the original Countdown to Extinction, with multi camera video including long missing visual effects and the original audio narration that was changed at park opening. See the changes made over the years, then take a modern day trip on Dinosuar including a look at the Rotunda show, full preshow with ALD audio, a look around the research facility and finally a full ride with multi camera video and an induction / clean live audio track. 33 minutes.
It`s fast. It`s a blast. It`s in the past!

Block Party Bash DHS from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Celebrate a Dream Come True HD from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Shot in the fall of 2009, the Magic Kingdoms parade is captured here in 720p HD quality. This is the whole parade with show stop, shot from multiple angles. I`m particularly happy with the audio mix; source float audio mixed with induction of the parade route underliner beat to sound just like the park version. This is something the versions in circulation are missing.

Twilight Zone Tower of Terror WDW HD – Ultimate Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Finally, after 6 months of working on this it is finished. The most complete tribute to Orlandos Tower that I can manage.
Begin with the backstory, then go back to the late 80`s origins of a freefall ride. Follow the evolution of the design and storyline, followed by a full concepts, construction and tech section. Then take a full HD tour of Sunset Blvd and the Towers queues, followed by in depth coverage of the lobby, libraries and boiler room. After a source quality preshow take a full multi camera 8 and a half minute ride through the attraction seeing every detail of both the guest corridor and 5th dimension floor and all the effects. Travel into the drop shaft for a combined single drop profile of all current profiles and effects, exit your AGV for a tour of the postshow and store areas, followed by a look at changes made since 1994. All audio is either clean live, source or source quality. I`m especially proud of the inride audio mix. 61 minutes long.
