New Little Mermaid video shows a lot of the ride !
WDI Imagineers had the good idea to invite original Little Mermaid animators, Andreas Deja, Mark Henn and Glen Keane to come at DCA and tour the awaited "The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventure", opening June 3rd.
They filmed the three animators inside the ride, comparing the audio-animatronic figures in the attraction to their original drawings produced for the film. And the video include dozens of new footage wthat will delight any Disney fan who can't wait to ride the attraction. If you're planning to visit DCA or to attend little Mermaid opening day - and keep the surprise - i prefer to warn you that there is some spoilers in the video below as not only you'll see Scuttle the seabird the animatronic host of the story (above), but also new footage of the incredible "Under the sea" sequence which include 128 animated characters...
...and the Ariel projection effect that guests will see over them when their omnimover will go down under sea...
...as well as Ariel Audio-Animatronic...
...not to mention a new shot of Ursula with the projection effect of Ariel inside Ursula's crystal globe...
AND the first shot of Ariel and Eric Audio-Animatronics in the "Kiss the Girl" sequence.
More awaits you in this new video which is very promising, i'm sure a lot of you can't wait to ride this 6 minutes long dark ride!
