See How the Story Begins
W
ho can forget the
moment Maleficent
arrives and puts the curse
on baby Aurora in Walt
Disney’s 1959 animated classic
Sleeping Beauty? One of the most iconic Disney
villains, Maleficent is the essence of pure evil. But
we never knew what made her that way.
In theaters
May 30, 2014
Maleficent, the new live-action film directed
by Robert Stromberg and starring Angelina
Jolie as Maleficent, takes a deeper look at the
unrepentant mistress of mayhem. The film reveals
her untold story and the elements of her betrayal
that ultimately turn her pure heart to stone.
Driven by revenge and a fierce desire to protect
the moors over which she rules, Maleficent
cruelly places an irrevocable curse upon the
human king’s newborn infant Aurora. As the child
grows, Aurora is caught in the middle of the
seething conflict between the forest kingdom
she has grown to love and the human kingdom
that holds her legacy. Maleficent realizes that
Aurora may hold the key to peace in the land and
is forced to take drastic actions that will change
both worlds forever.

realized live character whom audiences can
understand and even, at times emphathize with?
“Maleficent is not a remake of the classic
animation,” Robert points out. “And we are also
not reinventing Maleficent’s character. We’re
taking this great villain and revealing layers of
information about her—examining her personality
and motivations from new angles. We’re
exploring a variety of emotions that take her
character to levels we’ve never experienced.”
The journey begins with the script by Linda
Woolverton, but it takes a variety of creative
skills to complete the tale. As we take our
journey through Maleficent’s emotional story,
the costumes, lighting and scenic design must
all play in unison to reflect her psychological
changes, according to Robert.
“The subtlest change in costume color or in
the temperature of the lighting from warm
and bright to cool and dark help communicate
the character’s emotional arc and steer the
audience’s emotions,” Robert explains.
Music plays an important psychological role as
well. “We were walking many lines
with the music,” Robert says. “We
wanted to appeal to audiences
who knew and loved the original
film score, which is based on Tchaikovsky’s ballet ‘Sleeping
Beauty,’ but we also wanted to appeal to today’s audiences.
As a character, Maleficent has several musical themes in the
film, and they evoke different emotions depending on the
instrumentation, which changes the emotional tone.”
James Newton Howard wrote the film score. “He’s fabulous
at capturing emotional arcs musically,” Robert says. Popular
songwriter-singer Lana Del Rey was hand-picked by Angelina
Jolie to cover the film’s title song “Once Upon a Dream.” It is a
dark and hauntingly beautiful new rendition of the song from
the 1959 film.
But of course, it’s the actor’s performance that ultimately brings
the character to life. “Angelina brought so much depth and soul
to Maleficent’s character,” Robert says. “She was in love with this
character and really wanted to explore who Maleficent is. She

shop
was so engaged in the entire process, including the costumes
and makeup, and even the jewelry and headpieces. Her
enthusiasm made the development process so enjoyable.”
“Angelina created a very sharp, witty, well-thought-out
characterization—exactly what the character needed. The first
time she came on the set and said she was Maleficent, the whole
crew gasped because she was just so perfect.”

spell as never before when you redeem your Disney Dream

Walk Through a Fairytale
Since the walkthrough opened on April 28, 1957, in Sleeping Beauty
Castle at Disneyland® Park, Guests have been able to literally step into
the story setting of the animated film classic. The journey tells the film’s story through
intricately detailed dioramas, beautiful hand-illustrated books and special effects. Re-imagined
more than once since its opening, and most recently in 2008, today Maleficent plays a
significant role in the show, appearing five times (not including the illuminated manuscripts).
During the last re-imagination, one scene showing her with her Goons required Imagineers to
crane a piece of glass over 10-feet-tall in through an opening on the Castle roof.
“I believe the walkthrough brings Guests emotionally closer to the film,” says Chris
Merritt, Imagineering Art Director. “And just being inside the original Sleeping Beauty
Castle that Walt built is a very extraordinary experience!”
To step into the story, enter the Castle gates into Fantasyland and turn left to an arched
stone doorway. But tread lightly, for who knows when you may encounter Maleficent
waiting to cast a spell on you.
After your fairytale tour of the Castle, stop by the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique just outside the
Castle walls in Fantasyland, and use your Disney Dream Reward Dollars® to treat your little
princess to a fairytale transformation.1

purple that jump out against the crowd. “You always have
to be aware of what’s happening with the characters,” he
explains. “The audience needs to be able to immediately see
and follow their movements wherever they are on stage.
Throughout the project, I worked very closely with Casey,
Scenic Designer Bob Crowley and Lighting Designer Natasha
Katz to be sure the costumes worked with their designs and
the action on stage.”
he Genie glimmers like a mirage against
a dark sky. A parade fills the stage with
dazzling color. Capes swirl, veils float as if
stirred by the breeze of an Arabian night
and gossamer fabrics sparkle with thousands of
shimmering beads.
When the curtain rises on Aladdin at the New Amsterdam
Theatre in New York City, audiences will feel as if they’ve
been transported by a magic carpet into a world of
fantastical, spectacular beauty. And much of it was
created—stitch by meticulous stitch—by Tony Award®–
winning Costume Designer Gregg Barnes and his team.
And there was no Genie to help!
“It’s a really big show,” says Gregg. “Counting the understudies
and swings, we created 337 costumes. Normally a Broadway
musical requires about half that number. And that’s not
talking about custom-made headpieces, 161 pairs of
handmade shoes and innumerable handcrafted accessories
and jewelry pieces. We used 1,225 different fabrics, 83 of
which were custom designed.”
But Gregg’s first challenge wasn’t just the sheer size and
scope of the project. “Everyone knows and loves the
animated film,” he says. “I had to find a way to honor its spirit,

but bring something new that didn’t just duplicate the look
of the film. That’s the line all of us had to walk.”
“Aladdin is a fantasy story, but I needed to find elements
in the real world to inspire the designs. Audiences have to
relate to what they see—at least subliminally.” Director Casey
Nicholaw wanted the characters to have a modern feel—
something that today’s audiences would relate to. “So I gave
one actor Arabian shoes modeled on high-fashion sneakers
and another a big belt inspired by the back of a motorcycle,”
Gregg adds.
Not only do the costumes need to be easy to move in, delicate
in design and withstand hundreds of performances, they have
to be easy to get in and out of—quickly! “There are an average
of 11 costumes for each member of the ensemble,” Gregg says.
“It’s a huge number of costume changes—and they all have to
happen very, very quickly.” There are 108 costume changes that
must take place in less than 1 minute, 58 costume changes that
occur in less than 30 seconds, and in the Prince Ali sequence
80 changes take place in under 8 seconds. “And we’re not just
talking about putting on a new cape or turban, but entire
outfits. You can imagine what it takes to organize all that
backstage.”
“Of course, we’re constantly refining everything we do,”
Gregg adds. “Most of the design work is developed before the
acting company begins rehearsals. There are always things we
think are going to work, that don’t at first, so we’re tweaking
shapes, colors—everything—all the way to opening night. But
when the music begins, the curtain rises, the lights come up
and audiences get their first glimpse of the color and beauty,
every stitch is worth it!”
If one of your wishes is to treat your family to a journey
into the enchanted world of Aladdin, as a Disney Visa®
Cardmember, you will receive a special gift with your purchase
of tickets to Aladdin to keep your memories sparkling long

see page 15 for details. If another wish is to discover a new
world of music, you can now pre-order the Aladdin Original
Broadway Cast Recording at AladdinTheMusicalStore.com,
releasing this summer.
“Aladdin is a gorgeous, unique spectacle. Being part of this
production is a once-in-a-lifetime experience,” Gregg says.
“With a show like this you can let your imagination go.”
“Casey said he wanted the palace scenes to look like the last
scene in ‘it’s a small world’ at the Disney Theme Parks, with
that lavish sugar-coated sparkle,” Gregg says. “So I spent a
lot of time researching contemporary wedding dresses
with lavish beading and lace.” Over 712 different bead
styles added the sparkle Casey wanted. And one costume
alone, a pair of men’s pants in the final section of the
show-stopping “Friend Like Me,” is adorned with 1,428
Swarovski crystals.

Once the designs were finalized, costumes were cut from
muslin and fitted to the actors. “I always have the actors
dance in their first fitting. They have to be able to move
easily in anything we create. Each costume needs to look as
delicate as a butterfly’s wings, but wear like a suit of armor.”
Gregg was also inspired by the rich colors, textures and
patterns of Oriental carpets, and used them extensively in his
designs. For the marketplace scenes, he chose spice colors,
then put the main characters in shades of green, blue and

A Pitch Straight to the Heart
Anyone who loves baseball
will tell you that the sport
has a million stories about
legendary games and players.
T
Ignite Imaginations
here are characters who make us
laugh out loud, move us with their
courage and whose unquenchable
spirit lifts our own. Dusty, the
determined crop duster who proved himself in
Disney’s Planes (2013), is one of them. But what
happens when he can no longer do the thing he
loves most—air racing?
He shifts gears, of course. Proving that you just can’t
keep a good plane down, in Planes: Fire & Rescue,
Dusty launches into the world of wildfire air attack and
learns what it takes to become a real hero.
In theaters
July 18, 2014
Dusty’s pals from Propwash Junction are back,
along with a new crew of unforgettable characters,
including veteran fire and rescue helicopter Blade
Ranger, spirited airtanker Lil’ Dipper, heavy-lift
helicopter Windlifter, ex-military transport Cabbie,
Mayday, a lovable old WWII fire and crash vehicle and
a lively bunch of brave all-terrain vehicles known as
the Smokejumpers.
Meticulous research went into the story and
characters. “We always draw from the real world,”
explains producer Ferrell Barron. “The creative team
visited various air-attack bases in California and at
Yellowstone National Park. Everyone was very helpful
in ensuring accuracy, although we had to take creative
license in simplifying the process of fighting wildfires.”
“Fire itself is also a main character in the movie,”
director Bobs Gannaway points out. “There are over
650 visual effects involving fire, smoke and water.
It took about two-and-a-half years of research and
development to create a fire that looked and felt real on
8

SUMMER 2014
screen.” In fact, the team succeeded so well, that at
one point, the fire effects had to be scaled back.
“The fire effects were definitely challenging,” Ferrell
adds. “But the whitewater rapid rescue sequence was
even more complex. You not only have the water,
spray and mist, but you also have to capture the
effect of the water on the characters as it pushes
them around. Planes: Fire & Rescue is the most
visually complex film we’ve made at Disneytoon
Studios to date.”
But both Bobs and Ferrell remind us that effects
are only there to support the story. “Our first goal
is to bring truth to our stories and characters, and
the same goes for our visual effects,” Bobs says.
“We want the audience to believe in the world
and become so immersed in it that they connect
emotionally.”
Now, Million Dollar Arm, a film
based on a true story, adds another
memorable tale to the list.
In a last-ditch effort to save his
livelihood, sports agent JB Bernstein
(Jon Hamm) concocts a scheme to find
a young cricket pitcher he can turn into
a major league baseball star, and travels
to India to produce a reality show
In theaters
competition called “The Million Dollar
May 16, 2014 Arm.” With the help of a retired baseball
scout (Alan Arkin) he discovers Dinesh (played by Madhur Mittal
from Slumdog Millionaire) and Rinku (played by Suraj Sharma
from Life of Pi). The two 18-year-old boys have no idea about
playing baseball, yet have a knack for throwing a fastball. Hoping
to sign them to major league contracts and make a quick buck,
JB brings them to America to train. While the Americans are out
of their element in India, the boys are equally challenged when
they come to the States. As the boys learn the finer points of
baseball, JB, with the help of his charming friend Brenda (Lake
Bell), learns valuable life lessons about teamwork, commitment
and what it means to be a family.
“This is a great underdog story,” says Producer Mark Ciardi.
“These two guys had never even picked up a baseball, and
six months later they were signed professionally. Every kid
dreams of that!”
“What was interesting about making the film is how much
of our journey paralleled the same challenges JB had to
deal with in real life. He had to find those two talented boys
and train them. We had to hire two actors and then teach
them to pitch and play baseball. They trained every day.
Suraj, who is naturally right-handed, even had to learn to
pitch left-handed.”
Shaping the film also required finding the point where the
sport story and human story connected. “The differences in
culture were often quite comedic,” Mark explains. “We worked
hard to find the perfect balance of humor and heart.”
“I have a favorite scene in the film, when the boys have had
a pretty dismal failure at their first tryout in Phoenix. JB feels
as if he’s let them down, and he expects them to give up and
go home. I don’t want to give the scene away, but let’s just
say, it’s a really beautiful moment when the boys show JB
something about courage and loyalty.”
“Million Dollar Arm is about more than baseball,” Mark
concludes. “It’s about learning to let people into your life,
learning to care. You don’t have to know a lot about baseball
to enjoy this film. You just have to know about love.”

“Planes: Fire & Rescue has a lot of heart,” Ferrell adds.
“It’s a tribute to the heroic actions of firefighters
everywhere. They are the people brave enough to
run into a building when everyone else is running out,
who put their lives on the line for strangers. They are
true heroes.”

storytelling authenticity continues to the experience itself. “We looked
at a lot of different ideas, and thought ‘How much fun would it be if the
cars pivoted like they do in the film?’” Dave says. New technology allows
the cars to sway from side to side and pivot as they go around curves.
“It’s very smooth,” Dave points out. “One of our major goals was to be
sure it would appeal to a broad age range. We wanted enough thrills, but
we also wanted to make sure the entire family could enjoy it together.”

op on board, buckle up and remember to keep your picks and
shovels inside the car at all times. This spring, in addition to all the
attractions, parades and shows for you and your family to enjoy at
Walt Disney World® Resort, be sure to catch a ride on the new, family-friendly Seven
Dwarfs Mine Train, opening in New Fantasyland at Magic Kingdom® Park.
The attraction gives Guests an opportunity to experience the world of Walt Disney’s beloved
classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs from a completely new perspective—that of her
seven best friends.
“We are always trying to create unique experiences for all of our Guests,” says Walt Disney
Imagineer Dave Minichiello. “While Guests will see all the film’s Characters, we decided to focus
on the Dwarfs and their mine. Those scenes in the film are so clever and amusing, we thought
we could ‘mine’ a lot of fun from them,” he says with a chuckle. “It’s part of the Snow White
story we’ve never told in a Theme Park attraction before.”
The whimsical attraction is located in the enchanted forest of New Fantasyland, an
expansive area outside the castle walls. “All our New Fantasyland stories and architecture
lead to the enchanted forest of New Fantasyland, and we wanted to create an attraction that
would become a very dynamic center point in that area,” Dave explains. “We wanted Fantasy
Forest to have a very different feel, so we’ve added a lot more topography and elevations
including the mountain which is the home of the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. You can walk
around about 80% of it and enjoy some amazing kinetic views of the train moving in and out
of the mine. It’s beautiful.”
As Guests progress along a shady tree-lined path, they’ll see the Dwarfs’ cottage meticulously
recreated from the film. “It’s the first time we’ve ever built this cottage in any of the Disney
Theme Parks,” Dave points out. In the last scene of the attraction itself, Guests even get a
glimpse inside the cottage.
The story begins in the queue, where Guests can help sort and wash jewels or
enter the vault where the Dwarfs have stored their gems. The commitment to

“The New Fantasyland expansion is the largest ever created at
Magic Kingdom® Park, and the mine train is the crowning jewel. The
entire team feels very fortunate and thrilled to be part of creating an
attraction based on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” Dave concludes.
“It’s such a rich story, and all of us who have been involved wanted to
create something that pays tribute to Walt Disney and the amazing
artists who created the film.”

CARDMEMBER MEMORIES
When I took the whole family–my
son, his wife, my daughter, her husband
and my two grandkids–on a family trip
to Disney World last year we stopped at
the character meet and greet for pictures. After, my family was
amazed and said Dad, how did you know about this? I just
showed them my Disney card. –Barry, Alabama
“
Off for Fun You Go!
The attraction itself is rich in authentic details which help immerse
Guests in the story. Walt Disney Imagineers spent hours poring over the
mine scenes in the film, then captured every detail from the lanterns to
the woodgrain and even the smallest bolt heads. No two cars look the
same, even differing in the types of wood and metal used in their
construction. It was as if the Dwarfs had built them one at a time over
the years using whatever they found in the forest or mine. Artists painted
the cars layer by layer, distressing the paint and adding hit spots and
scrapes to show where they banged into something. “It’s all part of the
storytelling,” Dave says. “Everything needs to feel like it’s in the right
world so that the story is believable.”

in the case of thrill attractions at the Disneyland® Resort,
immerse riders in amusing, imaginative storytelling environments
every twist and turn of the way.9
This summer, Matterhorn Bobsleds, which opened on July 14, 1959, celebrates its 55th
anniversary. We thought it would be fun to give you a fast look at all the buckle-up-andhang-on attractions, so you can plan your visit to the Disneyland® Resort to enjoy them
all—one scream at a time.
Inspired by the real Matterhorn, Walt decided to cover a forested 20-foot-high mound named
Holiday Hill with artificial snow, add a toboggan run and rename it Snow Hill. However, Walt
always dreamed big, and his “hill” grew into a 147-foot-tall “mountain.” The use of a tubular steel
track and integration of a themed environment made Matterhorn Bobsleds the most innovative
coaster of its time. Today it continues to offer thrill-seekers an exciting race through ice
caverns and glacier grottos, complete with roars from the Abominable Snowman, who took
up residence in the mountain in 1978.
Fancy a spin through the galaxies? Take a high-speed whirl through Space Mountain, which
opened on May 27, 1977. With the help of an American astronaut, the attraction was designed
to give Guests the feeling of actual space flight. The high-speed mile-long ride through the dark
is made even more thrilling by the fact that you can’t see the twists, turns and plunges waiting
ahead. 37 years later, Space Mountain is still a Guest favorite. So make sure to grab your
FASTPASS® ticket for the attraction. Maybe on your way to the Matterhorn.

If you’re seeking adventure worth its weight in excitement
instead of gold, you’ll find it at Big Thunder Mountain
Railroad, “the wildest ride in the wilderness.” When it
opened September 2, 1979, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
took attractions to a previously unprecedented height of
storytelling in the environment inspired by Bryce Canyon,
Utah. Hang onto your gold pans as a runaway mine train
takes you racing along a twisting, turning track past red
rock spires, steep gorges and an abandoned mine shaft.
Along the way, keep your eyes open for bats, rattlesnakes
and dynamite-munching goats.
Younger family members will love zipping along on Gadget’s
Go Coaster in Mickey’s Toontown at Disneyland® Park. The
junior coaster was inspired by Gadget, the resourceful mouse
inventor of Disney’s animated series “Chip ‘n’ Dale’s Rescue
Rangers.” It tells a whimsical story of Gadget’s inventiveness
by using items she has salvaged, including an old comb, soup
can and thread spool. It’s as much fun to look at as it is to ride!
There are more thrills to be had at Disney California Adventure®
Park. At Paradise Pier, you can take off in Goofy’s Sky School.
Inspired by the 1940 cartoon short Goofy’s Glider, it’s a wild

Across Paradise Bay stands California Screamin’, the
longest, fastest coaster at the Disneyland® Resort. Designed
to resemble classic wooden coasters built during the golden
age of coasters, California Screamin’ propels riders to a
breathtaking peak, then plunges and swoops around,
culminating in a 360-degree loop-de-loop. Your shrieks of
delight are accompanied by an onboard audio track which

The Story Begins with You
You know the warmth and joy of
sharing stories with your child.
Now, Disney Junior’s Give a Book,
Get a Book program gives you a
way to share that magic with kids
who need it most.
“Disney Junior is all about magical
storytelling,” says Jennifer Rogers-Doyle,
Vice President Franchise, Disney Channel. “Our goal is to raise
awareness about the connection between preschoolers’ exposure
to storytelling and their success in school. When you share a story
through reading, singing, making up stories or simply talking
together, children develop vocabulary and gain pre-literacy skills.
Disney Junior’s Give a Book, Get a Book gives parents tools to
make storytelling part of their preschoolers’ daily life. It doesn’t
have to be complicated. Just 30 minutes a day is a great start.”
Working with First Book, a non-profit organization that
distributes books to schools and programs for kids in need,
Disney Junior’s Give a Book, Get a Book makes it easy for you
and your family to get involved. Starting this spring, when
you purchase any Disney Junior product at Disney Store
locations, you can give a book to a child in need and get a
select Disney Digital book to share with your own child. Visit
GiveaBookGetaBook.com for all the details.
“The program offers a way for parents and kids to share the
power of storytelling with children in need,” Jennifer says.
“We hope to donate one million books in our first year.”
