Disney themepark Halloween Fun
- Window to the Magic audio podcast’s Halloween episode. Includes rocking mash-ups that uses audio from theme park rides, animation soundtracks, etc. as well as audio from classic kids records. GIVE A LISTEN HERE.
- Every year Tokyo Disneyland has elaborate parade, here a few of my favorite:
2005′s Pumpkin Party
2007′s Haunted Mansion themed Happy Haunts parade. As anyone who had ridden the ride knows that “There are 999 happy haunted, but there is all ways room for 1000, any volunteers?” which is why the peppy song is “Just one more ghost!”:

Exciting new movies in the future.
I have to say there are three animated film I am excited about:
The Princess and the Frog from Disney. A return to 2D animation with a musical fairytale set in New Orleans. Check out the funny clip below to see a teaser for the film. Looking very cool. ALSO check out Disney’s new website for animation: http://www.disneyanimation.com/ to see concept art from the film.
and the 3D stop-motion Coraline, based on the childrens book by Neil Gaiman. Here are some making over videos from Rotten Tommatoes. The movie will be presented in stereoscopic 3D! Wow!
The latest film from Japan’s Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki - Gake no ue no Ponyo (å´–ã®ä¸Šã®ãƒãƒ‹ãƒ§, Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea). We won’t see it here in the US for a year or so and even though it’s aimed at younger kids I am still looking forward to seeing what the master director shows us. Here is a trailer for the movie which is all ready well in Japan. The backgrounds are amazing and I love the way the Water is really creatures.

Enchanted Fireworks for the 4th.
These are the new “Enchanted” fireworks for the summer at Euro Disneyland in Paris. I know that showing a fireworks show in France is probably not that patriotic of me, but this one is very cool and well done. The show does not have the usual Disney character voice overs and lots of bells and whistles, but the fire works themselves are pretty cool and the score is just music from the movie “Enchanted”. It’s only 7min, so take a break and take a look.
I hope you all had a great 4th of July.

Making more art at Wondercon 2008
So, before I posted images of art I created for others at Wondercon 2008, and now I get to show some personal pieces I did during the convention.
The first one is a fan piece, a watercolor painting of the villainous Maleficent from Disney’s Sleeping Beauty.

Chris Schnabel
I just saw a beautiful painting on the new Disney Store Shelves blog a concept painting by Chris Schnabel. I have loved Chris’s work since I saw his painting on the cover of the Aladdin CD Soundtrack. He seems to mostly do work for Disney and he does not have a blog or web sit yet either so it can take a bit more effort to see his work. His style can included some unique dry brush work along with smooth delicate washes too.
Some of his other work: Print from his jungle book cover illustration , Disney Stratocaster.
I will try to post more when I can find some good on-line samples or if I can scan some of what I have.
