EPCOT is going through some big changes right now!
EPCOT
We’ve got new parking lot theming, the upcoming return of EPCOT Forever fireworks, and the highly anticipated NEW attraction — Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana! We have been keeping an eye on the progress of this section of the park and can’t wait for it to open later this year. Well, get excited, guys, because Disney just released a new behind-the-scenes video featuring the queen of the attraction herself — Te Fiti.
In this behind-the-scenes look, Walt Disney Imagineering Senior Production Designer Diana Bibee introduces the 16-foot tall icon Te Fiti inside the Moana attraction that took Disney years to get right.
Disney hopes that this beautiful statue of Te Fiti, a “guardian of water,” inspires guests to “continue their own personal stewardship towards the conservation of our natural resources.” In the making of this icon, Disney Imagineering collaborated with Walt Disney Animation Studios to get her look just right.
Construction everywhere
In the video, Bibee shares that Journey of Water, located in World Nature, is going to be a “self-guided exploration trail that focuses on the life cycle of water, from the sky to earth and back again.”
