Universal's Cinematic Celebration Night Show

Are you guys kidding, the effect of the hovering shipping container is amazing. The forced perspective makes it look like it's a 200' in the air and the support is practically invisible. Bravo UC. Way better than the rocks on sticks in Pandora.

Your humor is dryer than the mojave...

This is the theming solution??? It looks STUPID!

Which one is the themed one?

I think Universal is just trolling the forums. Lol. That's what you get for complaining about seeing show equipment. Lol. Obviously this is not the end product.

"Here's your damn theming. Now shut the "f" up."

I think the mini container is a contradiction...it's not an EPIC container. But in the end big things come in small packages.

It’s a bit better now.

I also noticed something interesting. UOR’s lights can’t dim apparently, so instead of dimming the lights for the show they shut off all of the normal lights and turn on soft white show lights in New York to keep it dimly lit during the show.

Much, much better.

I wonder if they are working to program the lights to dim or not.

If it happens, it won’t be until after HHN. They replace all the bulbs with colored bulbs for that, it would require installing a ballast and bulbs that support dimming. Then installing dimmer controls to the various control boxes around the park (then running DMX). It’s actually not extremely difficult, but the park isn’t designed to support it; from my understanding the lights aren’t centrally controlled.

I don’t believe they are centrally controlled. It’s the reason why they can’t all shutoff at once like at Disney.

I would love to know where the button is located to start this show. Is it in a dingy room backstage or somewhere in CP? Same goes for Disney shows... who gets to push that button/click that icon?

On the second floor of Richter Burger Co facing the lagoon.

I believe all shows have a show director, right?

 

[bob albert]

It is. They specifically mention it

Universal Orlando

Some slightly bad news for me is they aren’t doing the buy one get one half off dining plan. Doh.
But they are giving 10% off select dining.

The dining plan deal was the best part of the passholder days. I'll prob eat less in the parks now.

The Show Director leads the creation of the show. They’ll stop being hands on once the show is “complete.” An AD will oversee the show from there to ensure it remains “complete.”

The show manager for the evening is the one who says “We’re ready to go.” The lead tech for the evening pushes the button.

 

[Teebin]

I wanna be lead tech for a day...

Will I get to see this on my upcoming trip?

I will be at Universal 22 through 28 Sept (leaving early afternoon 28)

22 = HHN
23 = HHN
24 = 7PM close no HHN
25 = 6PM close no HHN
26 = 7PM close no HHN
27 = 5PM close no HHN
28 = HHN but gone home :'(

Looking at this Im not sure Ill get to see the show. I am also really annoyed that I booked a 6 night stay during HHN yet only get two nights I can actually attend HHN. Any other week and I could have done 4 :rant:.

A nefarious Disney plot, no doubt.

So what is it supposed to be? Is this based off something that actually exists, or just a made up bit of theming? Someone help me understand the industrial world.
