Phantom Manor – Martins 2022 Ultimate Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

3 years ago I did a Phantom Manor ride edit. Taking the basis of this, I decided to see if I could improve it. 31 rides later and I have a whole new shot-in-4K edit.

Start with a look at the history of the attraction and it’s storyline, then take a close look at every major change made in the 2018 rebuild. Following this is a detailed visit to the attraction, starting outside in the garden and through the whole Manor and out and around Boot Hill Cemetery. I tried to cover every detail inside and outside including closeups of things often missed. Picture quality is much better than my previous edit, and I tried with each shot to present things as guests see them on the ride – not too dark and not too bright. Audio is a brand new, better quality mix with more source than before too. Finish off with a walk around the manor and the cemetery at night. At an hour long I hope you think this is one of the most comprehensive looks at the attraction to date.

Enjoy!

Pirates of he Caribbean Martins 2021 Ultimate Tribute part five – Shanghai from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Finishing my mammoth edit series, here is the Shanghai version of pirates. See how the ride differs from previous versions, the ride layout, how the ride system works and then take a full multi angle ride. Audio is a new source quality mix.

Pirates of the Caribbean – Martin’s 2021 Ultimate Tribute – part four Paris from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

A huge project that’s been a real labour of love for me. See why the Parisian Pirates is considered by many to be the best and most lavish version of the legacy rides. Go back to the origins of the ride, how it was changed from previous versions, how and why the storyline was altered and how it was designed and laid out and built. Also take a look at all the major changes made since 1992. Then take a full, shot in 4K tour of the attraction from outside, a detailed look at the queue, and on to the lavish load dock. I took care as much as possible to make each shot appear how the ride does. Not too dark, not too bright. Experience a full, huge multi angle edit of the ride covering every detail. Similarly I’m quite proud of the all new source and clean live audio mix I’ve slaved away at. Disembark, browse the store, walk outside, then take a full tour of Captain Jacks restaurant. Jump on the steam train to see the ride from the railroad, then take a look around the expanded attraction area at dusk. This ones been a project of passion for me. I started editing it a year ago and ended up with footage from 15 rides over 2 separate trips. I hope you think it was worth it.

Pirates of the Caribbean Martin’s 2021 Ultimate Tribute part three – Tokyo from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Continuing this new series, see how the third version of the ride was designed and why it isn’t a clone of the Disneyland version but a hybrid of both Anaheim and Orlando. Walk into the attraction and take a full multi angle ride through with a source / clean live audio mix.

Pirates of the Caribbean – Martin’s 2021 Ultimate Tribute part two – Orlando from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Continuing this series, start by taking an in depth look the history of the Orlando version of this attraction, how and why it was built, how it was designed and laid out, how it differs from Anaheim and a look at the major changes made since 1973 including the original treasure room scene in full.

Next take a walk into Adventureland for a complete tour of the attraction including both queues in full and a full multi angle ride through including each scene in full, followed by a tour of Caribbean Plaza.

I was gifted 70 gig of 4K footage mainly shot in 2017 that I could use so long as I released it in 4K, so as well a 1080p version this is my first edit also in 4K. Audio is a source / clean live mix leaning more towards full source.

The footage was also shot in 2017 specifically to capture the original auction scene in full – as it is presented here. I’ve purposely edited this to capture the attraction as it was at that time. Part one (Anaheim) features the new auction scene with Redd in full.

60 minutes long.

Rise of the Resistance – Martins Ultimate Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

A huge edit, in the making for nearly a year, of one of Disney’s most advanced attractions. See the origins of Star Wars expansion in Orlando, how the land developed, and the development of the attraction.  Follow the ride from entrance to exit in an animated hi resolution and highly detailed plan, how it works, and how it was built.

Next walk into Orlando’s  Batuu and walk an empty standby line before a multi angle preshow one, then board your transport for a multi angle, multi picture preshow two ride. Take in the destroyers hanger and interior, experience preshow three and then board your ride vehicle for a multi angle, full ride offering viewpoints from both vehicles. Exit the attraction and see the area – and ride changes – at night and then compare both ride vehicles viewpoints in a synchronised split screen ride through. All video was shot in HD or 4K and audio is a huge live / clean / source quality mix.

Given the events of 2020, this edit would not have been possible without the help and generosity of the following to whom I am extremely grateful:

Ratatouille Walt Disney Studios Paris – Martin’s Ultimate Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Next walk into the land for a full shot-in-4K tour, walk the queue and take a complete multi angle ride with 2D projections and a source audio mix. Exit the ride and take a tour of the Bistrot Chez Remy restaurant.

For the attractions 38th birthday, here is an updated version of the original version of Spaceship Earth. With new footage, for the first time a complete representation of how the attraction looked for its first four years is now possible. Quality is what you would expect from the mid 1980s and early 90s, and a lot of footage is from the 1986 version for clarity, but everything is true to how the ride looked in 1982. Similarly, for the first time using a combination of recordings, the complete Vic Perrin (yes, it was Perrin) narration is now possible to hear. Previous recordings have had words, sentences and complete sections missing or inaudible but this live mix includes the complete original soundtrack. Again, quality is not perfect but the entire original narration is now here.
