Disneyland Resort’s World of Color water display in California
My wife loves Disneyland Resort. I think we’ve been there eight times in the last five years. By contrast, before I met her I went to Disneyland perhaps once every five years.
I posted Disneyland news earlier this year. What’s new since then is a new water display show Disneyland calls World of Color.
When I hear ‘World of Color’ I think of World of Good, the fair trade social impact company started by my friends Priya Haji, Siddharth Sanghvi and David Guendelman, now part of EBay and Charity USA. I was the first outside investor in World of Good, so it’s near to my heart.
What Disneyland has put together with World of Color is simply the most impressive water display I’ve ever seen. It is more impressive than the fountains in front of the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.
I brought my Canon 5D Mark II to the show and shot video of the entire show. My camera got soaked by the water spray, and the lens got so wet at times the video is a bit degraded. But the overall result is good, and it’s probably one of the better videos out there since the Canon can shoot very wide angle since I used a 16-35mm zoom lens for this video. There are lots of Disney movie references in the show, most that I didn’t get since I’ve seen so few Disney movies.
