>> Phillip: This marquee is so important to this attraction because this is Mickey and
Minnie's first attraction. And we want to make sure that we're providing an
amazing marquee that really celebrates their entrance into a great attraction
at Disney's Hollywood Studios.
The marquee sets up that you're arriving at the
Chinese Theater for a premiere of Mickey and Minnie's Perfect Picnic.
The brand-new, Mickey shorts that we'll be premiering. We knew from the beginning
that we wanted a neon Mickey and Minnie. Just because we knew it would be really
fantastic to have them animated just like they are inside the attraction as well.
>> Brittany: One of the great details about this sign, is actually the inspiration from
it came from the original Chinese Theater. And so all of the elements were
taken from previous signs that had existed on the building's exterior.
All our designers and all of our graphic designers come together and create these really beautiful designs.
Shop drawings are created which we have our
engineering partners, our architectural partners and other designers and weigh in
and then a series of ten to twenty fabricators basically put the sign
together part by part inch by inch all hand done and all built here.
>> Phillip: We wanted to continue this look of neon all the way down Hollywood Boulevard, but
really create this marquee is basically a beacon that you're guided to.
>> Brittany: I think it's gonna be really great to be able to look straight down the front entryway
and to kind of see one of these magical moments is one of the first entry statements of the park.
Because you're gonna be able to see it from the front entry.
>> Phillip: I love neon, I love that we have designed this in a way that is uniquely tied to the history of Hollywood
and Hollywood Boulevard and the feeling of the Golden Age of cinema.
