(excerpted from The Disney Parks Blog)
The Disney Parks Blog will partner with Walt Disney Imagineering to bring you a live chat with Walt Disney Imagineer Chris Beatty on Wednesday, Nov. 9 at 1:30 p.m. EST.
Chris is one of many Imagineers who have been tasked with taking favorite Disney films, such as “Beauty and the Beast” and “The Little Mermaid,” and transforming them into immersive experiences that will thrill guests when New Fantasyland debuts late next year.
AllEars.Net had the opportunity to meet Chris and chat with him about the Fantasyland Expansion last month at the 40th Anniversary celebration in the Magic Kingdom. You can see the video HERE.
