WDW Radio # 375 - Nooks and Crannies of Disney’s Hollywood Studios - August 31, 2014 TOPIC: Walt Disney World is filled with many overlooked experiences, and wonderful ways to enjoy your time in the parks, many of which don’t appear on park maps or times guides. And sometimes, these aren’t necessarily even attractions or things to do, but places along the way. So this week, we're going to share some of our favorite Nooks and Crannies of Disney’s Hollywood Studios. They include everything from hidden details and fun finds, to just some out of the way places to sit and relax. CONTEST: New Walt Disney World Trivia Contest UPDATES: I’ll share more information about our next very special event, Twilight at the Tower on October 3 as well as other details about upcoming events. Watch and chat during our LIVE WDW NewsCast Wednesdays at 7:30pm ET at http://WDWRadioLIVE.com. Upcoming WDW Radio Disney meets, On the Road events and more!

http://WDWRadio.com/Tower You are about to enter another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land of imagination. Next stop, the WDW Radio Twilight at the Tower events! The time is Friday, October 3, 2014 on a day very much UNlike the one we have just witnessed. This story is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of introduction. Lou invites you, if you dare, to step aboard because in this episode you are the star. And this elevator travels directly to… a day (and night) celebrating classic Hollywood… and the legendary Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Imagine if you will, a day full of events, culminating with a special, after-hours celebration on the balcony of the Hollywood Tower Hotel.

His credits read like a best-of list of Disney filmmaking, including Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Emperor’s New Groove, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit. I had a chance to interview Don a few years ago, and recently and a chance to sit down with him face to face to talk about his film career, including his recent work on the Disneynature films and Maleficient. He also shares his thoughts of the success of films like Frozen and Tangled, the importance of music, the transition many films have made to Broadway, and how other animated films have transitioned to live action.
