Product Description
Synopsis
This book features the original imagineers and the transformation of outdoor entertainment. The history of the originators of Disneyland and subsequent Disney theme parks is told through their own eyes and the eyes of Walt Disney himself. 50 years ago, Walt Disney utterly transformed the concept of outdoor entertainment venues. Using his innate talent for combining disparate skills and personalities, he assembled a creative team that blended imagination with engineering and called them 'Imagineers'. "Walt Disney's Legends of Imagineering" introduces the original Imagineers - the creative force that collectively brought the magic to life in the Disneyland theme park. Their vision sparked the outdoor entertainment revolution that, today, is responsible for the global success of the Disney brand and the envied object of countless imitators. It explores their individual relationships, both with Walt and with each other; their creative breakthroughs and failures; and their rivalries and professional politics.Lavishly illustrated with rare and never-before-seen artwork and photographs, "Walt Disney's Legends of Imagineering" is more than just a history: it is a celebration of the creative genius that put flesh and bone to the incomparable enchantment of Disney.
