Construction's An Adventure

This is the first post in a series of posts, covering all the construction mayhem that's going on inside California Adventure.

To begin, we'll start with something that's pretty much totally done, and actually will be debuting in 16 days: The World of Color.

This show will take viewers on a 25 minute emotional rollercoaster, through every human emotion, all to the sights and sounds of our favorite Disney films. Now, you may be thinking to yourself as you read this, "Self, this is gonna be a new Fantasmic!, what's the difference?"

YOU'RE WRONG.

Here's the differences between World of Color, and Fantasmic.

• World of Color has NO live actors. Fantasmic does.
• World of Color's plot is all about emotion. Portraying emotion through the liquid medium and color. Fantasmic's plot is all about Mickey's dream being overthrown by villains, and him conquering his dream through a battle of good vs. evil.

Now you may be wondering: "Self, if this has no live actors, then how does the show work?"

Well, if you've ever been to Las Vegas, you may have seen, or caught a glimpse of the Bellagio fountain show. If you have not, then watch this video!

Now after watching that, imagine this:

1,200 fountains, on a platform bigger than a football field. With fountains that change colors, the most high tech, and up to date lasers, 50 foot high, 400 feet wide mist screens, and fire!

Here's some concept art for the show.
*NOTE: This is just artwork, and may or may not be the final product.

Now, if you want to get an extremely close taste of what the show will be like, a youtuber got footage of what seems to be a full show run through. You can't see all the effects of what will be in there, and you can't hear certain areas of the audio, but it's good none the less.
