Product Description: The fourth in a series of pocket-sized paperbacks answers the question, "What would it be like to walk through Disneyland with an Imagineer by your side?" The Imagineering Field Guide to Disneyland provides that experience: pointing out details and telling stories, back stories, and Imagineering insights never before heard, condensed into a portable, easily-referenced park guide. You'll never spend time at Disneyland the same way again. Each spread contains fascinating textual information and related images (drawings, photos, graphics) such as: ¨ Set-up, backgrounds, and origins of each park/land/mini-land ¨ Concept art to compare to the finished show ¨ Timeline information (opening dates, previous shows in the same venue,
alterations and updates) - Photography of the details and big pictures being discussed ¨ Special props, design sources, artistic inspirations, nomenclature gags
Pretty good, yet wishing for more.... A good little book,yet it just skimmed the surface of the gems at the park. Although meant to be a simple primer, it seemed to light on the details, although it does contain some gems! Still a fun series!
Disneyland Making of not so good I had enjoyed very much the other two Imagineering books (WDW and EPCOT) and was hoping for much more for the Park that started it all. But it has many errors and most of the stuff, since I have been going to Disneyland since the day it opened and was there, it doesn't tell me much I didn't already know. And other Disneyland fans that have read it are very disappointed as well. There are really no big surprised here for anyone who goes to Disneyland several times a year. Maybe for the causal visitor it will have nice surprises, but for the true Disneyland fan not much meat here.
