WDW ELECTRICAL WATER PAGEANT 1971 (RE-CONSTRUCTION)

This is version 1 of a re-construction of the original Electrical Water Pageant that premiered on Monday October 25, 1971. This is a test. The pageant floats and animation have been re-visualized from super 8 films, video, still Images, Disney promotional materials and internet research. I will be posting a more accurate version later with water effects, close ups, long shots and better synced music. This is an ongoing project and would appreciate any constructive comments. I hope you enjoy. Music is from the WDW EWP 1972 picture disc.

Update March 2015: Currently working on a new version with correction to floats, animation, musical score and reflected water effect. I am producing a pdf booklet entitled Fire On The Water: A visual history of the Walt Disney Electrical Water Pageant 1971 to the present.
