I’m in the land of magic and pixie dust with Disney. We were magically whisked to the Disney Studios lot to watch an early screening of Tinker Bell and The Great Fairy Rescue. Little did I know that the magic was going to happen in the famous Frank G. Wells where they test out how their movies look on film.
Tinker Bell has had quite a transformation over the years and as I still have to write my actual Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue movie review, you can see in my daughter’s Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue Vlog that they hit the target audience. Just to forewarn any mothers that wear their heart on their sleeves, grab the tissues because it was very heartwarming, not sad, just melt your heart heartwarming!
After we previewed the movie we were allowed a little time inside the building to take a few photos. Inside they have one of only two surviving Multiplane Cameras that won awards and was once high tech in the animation field. I mean, can you imagine how complex it was to make Snow White look like it was zooming into the scenery? Check it out.
Then after the tour we enjoyed dinner with a view! The Sun was setting
Then I changed my ISO and it looked like it was still daylight!
Thank you Disney for Day 1. I had a great time learning about Tinker Bell and watching the movie.
The tour and explanation of the process was fascinating!
This was quite a bit of fun. It is always fun for me to see the magic behind animation. I love art and always wanted to work with the same programs they are working with there. Ohh, I had animation envy!
Just a great place to be.
All I can say is color me jealous
Tink is my favorite Disney character, she’s tiny with attitude, sort of like me!
Tink does have quite a bit of spunk in her! I hope to meet you in person some day Tammy so I can see your personality too!
great pics! have a fabulous time.
Thanks Melinda! Looks like your vacation was fun! What was your favorite part?
Looks like a blast! Graham still talks about Disney.
Sounds like an awesome time was had!
Oh man as a HUGE Tink fan I think I would’ve been in heaven lol!! Sounds like a great trip so far!
Tinkerbell has always been one of my favorites. I think it goes back to to Wonderful World of Disney that was one each Sunday night and Tinkerbell always started the show by flying around the castle!
So jealous! Sounds like fun, I can’t wait to see the movie – although I am not sure my sons will be as excited!
What an exciting opportunity to share with your daughter! I bet she’ll remember this trip forever.
Sounds like so much fun!
We went to a screening of the movie last weekend and it was fantastic! My girls loved it. Thanks for the great pics.
I love Tinker Bell! How awesome that you got to see an early screening. Looks like an awesome place!
Wow, what fun! I remember as a little girl watching Disney on Sunday nights, Tinker Bell was my favorite !
