Though you may not be aware of it, whenever you're playing in any
of Disney's many theme parks, the Imagineers who designed those
parks are busy playing with your head. EVERY GUEST IS A HERO
reveals for the first time how the artists and technical wizards of
Walt Disney Imagineering have harnessed the magic of mythic
storytelling to press all sorts of psychological buttons you never
knew you had, inspiring you and millions of your fellow visitors to
return to the parks again and again. Longtime theme park designer
and attraction show writer Adam M. Berger is your tour guide,
decoding the mythic themes and archetypes of the Disney parks in an
entertaining, engaging, and always accessible manner. You'll
discover page after page of "ah-ha " moments as you encounter one
surprising connection after another. You'll also find a collection
of ten "Mything in Action" case studies that break down the mythic
content of some of your favorite Disney attractions,
scene-by-scene. There's even a chapter devoted to the mythic realms
of George Lucas, offering tantalizing clues about some of the
amazing experiences now being Imagineered for Disney's forthcoming
Star Wars-themed lands. It's a must-read volume for Disney
enthusiasts and aspiring Imagineers alike. So strap yourself in,
keep your arms and legs inside at all times, and prepare to embark
on a voyage of mythic proportions. Once you've read EVERY GUEST IS
A HERO, you'll never look at your favorite Disney attractions the
same way again.
