Disney Imagineer. Watch me on Disney Journey with Jim Shull. Read me at Co-Host

#WDI used to publish in house physical media for Imagineers. The WDeye opener was produced weekly (or nearly so) for years covering the new products going on at the time. There was also a magazine the WDeye. More on https://t.co/VWIYvVdvqZ

@Themountainkin1 The estimators and project managers will find the tool useful, but a good designer won’t rely on the tool set. Producing pretty pictures isn’t the same as producing good design.

Hello Beautiful.

AI isn’t a tool where I can stand in the construction site and sketch an elevation to show 247 workers what they need to do. AI is a tool-not the solution. More on https://t.co/VWIYvVdvqZ

@MLMcCoyEXP There are no public toilets inside the theater. There are toilets outside the theater building reached by walking toward the Monsters ride.

@tommyhawkins Tool sets that will be used to generate content that is reconfigured material from others. This is not creating, this is reusing.

@Themountainkin1 People visit Disney Parks to experience what they can’t see elsewhere. If Disneyland is a showcase of AI then why would people bother to travel and spend money in any Disney Park?

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

Theater staff and theater costs rise yearly. Rides over time are the better investment but they take more effort. Cutting the effort explains why the use of AI is rising at Disney and WDI.

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

Disney can be dumb like when building a 2,000 seat theater without building toilets which limited the length of the theater shows. Anne Hamburger and Paul Pressler championed this. Imagine what could be done with this site?

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

@VashSky But inexcusable. Billions spent to buy Warners Bros then to fire and gut a main reason to buy Warners Bros. This is financial malfeasance. And also really stupid.

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

WDI’s best ideas came from meetings, story beats on 3x5 white cards, and sketches on photocopy paper. The Imagineers didn’t need server farms to produce processed product. This is like calling deli meat fine cusine.

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

@ScottGustin Speed isn’t the issue, having access to the character models isn’t the issue. The issue is that the #DisneyCompany is laying off creative talent to save costs.

My interest in DC movies and Television media has dropped to zero. Follow the money to understand why. DC Shocker: James Gunn, Peter Safran Out as Co-Chairmen, Marvel Veteran Jeremy Latcham to Lead Comic Book Studio https://t.co/SfJ7uQX1Zm via @variety

The glory of Rivers of America in the Magic Kingdom is the ability to get lost in nature. Piston Peak and Villains Land has forever changed a key component of the most successful park at #WaltDisneyWorld

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

@bioreconstruct Thanks. I didn’t have the watermark.

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

Nature while curated was a key component in the design of the #MagicKingdom. The Swan Boats cruised around the hub and even deep into #Adventureland. A good capacity family attraction that was removed & never replaced.

[Jim Shull @JimShull]

Peak Disney World was when #Epcot connected to the Boardwalk, hotels and Disney MGM Studios. I traveled by boat several times between the two parks on a relaxing and enjoyable cruise. It was a highlight of many trips.
