Did anyone happen to take video or have a video of May 5th during the opening when we were all herded onto Main Street and they played that announcement? I'd really love to see a copy of that and hear the announcement in full again.
(the one they played over the PA welcoming those of us who are returning or are here for our first time[yeah right] to disneyland's 50th anniversary and then they played a rendition of welcome to our family time similar to the rose parade's)
I believe http://www.extinctattractionsclub.com have DVDs with video from May 5 and July 17. It's in the Disneyland section.
I have some videos of a almost exact event happening on the 17th but its on an old video camera and not a digital.
I have "video" but from where I was at that morning, between the island of media hub and frontierland. It was really the top of the castle, back of some ladys hat, and just the gloomy skys with the sounds in the background. 15mins of that but it was cool to be there.
For what it's worth, last week when we were at the Park, I stopped in at the music shop on Main St where they also sell the DVD's and asked about any possible DVD's on the 50th or the fireworks and/or parade. The CM was nice and helpful and told me that they were working on one that will cover all of the specials for the 50th. It should be out by Christmas time (hopefully). Of course, the musical version is already available on CD.
so they'll be making a video of the fireworks? like DVD quality? because then one of you will have to buy it for me, then ship it to me ;)
If you can't find it elsewhere, send a PM to Mechavalon.
He took video of the Main Street mob scene. I haven't seen how it came out, but his videos are usually great.
He also has great video of the fireworks, almost prof. quality. The only mar is that some lady tried to walk in front of him at the beginning and you can hear him begging her to go around and hear me being less cordial to her. ;) Other than that, its a fantastic video, taken on 5/3/05.
I don't know if he's willing to share or host either video, but it would be worth asking!
I have the official video from Disney of the re-dedication ceremony from May 5th. It's in four parts though, however I don't know if I'm authorized to release it since it was only available on the Cast Portal.
I don't really care about the video quality so much, I'm more looking for hearing the audio from it again. So if someone took a video of that opening narration and song with their thumb over the lens the entire time, I wouldn't care ;)
