To keep you waiting before i post next week my Shanghaî Disneyland review, here is a HD Video of SDL Tomorrowland at night that i've filmed when i was there. Note that the video shows only everything "outdoor", not the indoor part of the rides. Tomorrowland is beautiful at night with its always changing lighting and the shots are voluntarily not too short to give you the feeling to see SDL Tomorrowland "just like if you were there"!

I've posted before on D&M many videos of Dan McNeely who do some really good low light videos of Disneyland and WDW rides. Yesterday, Dan sent me an email to let me know that he was back from Disneyland Paris where he filmed several low light videos last week, and here are the first ones he put on line on Youtube!
We'll start by the video of Peter Pan's Flight which include the new projection effects as it was shot last week.
Next is Phantom Manor, and although there is sometime a bit of "noise", overall he did a pretty good job on this one knowing how dark it can be during the ride, .
Dan also filmed the Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril rollercoaster, this time during day light.
Dan also went to the Walt Disney Studios and filmed the Ratatouille ride.
Last but not least - as Dan will post more DLP videos soon - here is one of WDS Crush Coaster!
Thanks a lot to Dan McNeely and make sure to check the Summer Special Offer for the DLP book which ends tomorrow August 31!
The folks of D23 have posted a great video with Disney Legend and Imagineer Tony Baxter in which Tony shares a great concept of a never realized Mary Poppins attraction that he designed a long time ago, even before he entered Walt Disney Imagineering - still called WED at that time. Don't miss it! Don't miss too this other video, always about Mary Poppins, in which Disney artist and historian Stacia Martin and Tony Baxter tell how Walt and his staff employed nearly every skill they had learned in filmmaking to produce the movie.

Starting the week on D&M with a great magic show is not a bad idea and this is what i suggest we do today. Studio City is the latest Hotel Casino in Macau. Designed by Gary Goddard' Goddard Group the hotel also include the ""House of Magic of magician Franz Harary, a multi theaters magic experience and the great Imagineer Tim Delaney designed part of it, see Tim renderings above and below, click on each to get them in HD. Franz Harary's House of Magic is now celebrating its first anniversary and you'll find a first video below which shows a best-of of what guests experience during their visit of the House of Magic. The final act is Franz Harary "Mega Magic" 35 minutes show and, lucky you, i've found on Youtube a video showing the entire show! The show includes some brilliant magic acts but also use some impressive background video effects on giant screens, so don't miss it! Video: copyright Franz Harary
