The Science of Disney Imagineering: Levers & Pulleys Classroom Edition [Interactive DVD]
How do Imagineers make elephants fly? Actually, it's simple...simple machines, that is! Here, the Imagineers give a new look at how levers and pulleys were utilized to create attractions such as Dumbo the Flying Elephant and Soarin' Over California. Students will see how levers and pulleys make work easier by either multiplying or redirecting the effort we put into them. They will identify the two forces involved in using a machine and learn to calculate mechanical advantage, given effort and resistance. Each Imagineering DVD includes a bonus try it yourself experiement, an interactive activity to reinforce key learnings, Public Performance Rights and printable educator's guide.

Walt Disney believed, If you can dream it, you can do it, and that belief is at the core of Disney Imagineering; the place where imagination meets engineering. Imagineers use science to create and build unique attractions that delight Disney guests around the globe. This all-new series uses roller coasters, stunt shows, animatronics, and other irresistible examples to break down scientific principles in a way that is accessible for all learners. Just imagine what you could do if the whole world was your toolbox!


Disney Lost and Found: Exploring the Hidden Artwork from Never-Produced Animation
Disney's Lost Art is a deluxe celebration of the visual development of shorts, scenes, and entire feature length films by Walt Disney Animation Studios that, for one reason or another, never made it to the screen. The book will be divided into three sections. The first part will focus on animation drawings, story sketches, and concept art created for vintage scenes that were cut from shorts and features including Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and The Rescuers. The second section will be dedicated entirely to Wild Life, a Disney feature film that was never finished. Part Three will be devoted to My Peoples, another unfinished feature. Disney fans and art enthusiasts will delight in this exclusive look at an untold piece of Disney history.
Customer Review: Nicely Done -- As Far As It Goes
I enjoyed this book and thought it was well done, but I have two comments: - Solomon covers only a handful of those unfinished animation projects and scenes. As a Disney fanatic, I occasionally stumble across reverences to abandoned projects, so I know there were many more, and the word that popped into my mind when I was finished reading this was "tease." The Introduction corroborates this: "...Studio artists began work on hundreds of others over the years that were left in varying stages of completion." (page 6) Those who are looking for a comprehensive reference on abandoned projects/scenes will be disappointed. - This book is mostly pictures. They are (in most cases) gorgeous and instructive, but I counted only seven full pages of text. If you're looking for a detailed reference on animation, this isn't it. I own other works by Charles Solomon and consider him a credible animation expert.
