[tly5352]

This is incredibly high quality & great to watch. This is the best show at WDW. Thanks for posting it! You just saved me several thousand $ worth of hotels, tickets & such. But I'll miss the beer at the Epcot German Biergarten.

[baron22222]

by the way awesome use of camera angles cuts editing and sound editing

[videorobo]

Thank you! Always nice to hear.

[baron22222]

one question why is the tjeatre open to the outside

[videorobo]

I recorded this show just before they enclosed and air conditioned the theater. It used to be open-air.

[FMAfanFMA]

is this in florida or california? D: Cause I'm going to Florida in december and I really want to see this TT^TT

[videorobo]

This is performed at Disney's Animal Kingdom, at Walt Disney World in Florida.

[FMAfanFMA]

Okay, thank you so much!

[jenrferruso]

@videorobo  - Thank GOD Lovingly opened it with my gracious friends - family forever!

[leahizgr82k5]

It seriously is AMAZING! one of the best ones i saw! Although, i went in August 08 and the show has changed, but it's still brilliant! You should def go see it! xx

[MChelada]

Probably the best filmed recording of the complete Festival.  Fantastic editing between shots and great camera angles.

[videorobo]

Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed it.

I had fun creating it.

[ChelsRae42985]

Every time I watch this show at WDW, I sob. Isn't that sad? I don't even know why it just pulls at me emotionally....

[stef500]

@ChelsRae42985 it's not sad i cry as well but only cuz my grandpa loved the lion king and he has been gone for a while but i still miss him so i cry

[klairebear93]

[ktymimokouy]

u wish i could've seen this but i'm gonna see the broadway version at my hometown :)

[whoaitsconner]

I just saw that the other week at Disney! I loved it!

[kingofswing3000]

I've never posted a comment on YouTube. But, as a Filmmaker and Disney-phile, I had to say "bravo" to the work you have done with all of these shows. Excellence in spades.

[videorobo]

Thank you so much for the fine compliment!

I shot these all with a consumer home-video camera.

I have pro gear as well, but I don't take it to WDW.

I just got a new HD camcorder, so I may re-shoot some of these.

[tayragirl]

like disney world and univerdsal studios>?

[yamiyugifangirl]

this has to be disney world over at Animal Kingdom

[tayragirl]

hes the best charater are you gonna do more disney videos

[videorobo]

I'd like to shoot the Nemo Musical but I'm not sure if they let you do so just yet. I have already done al lot of the major shows, parades and evening spectaculars- Here's a list: Beauty & the Beast: LIVE! 4 for $ (Pre-show) Fantasmic!:  Festival of the Lion King IllumiNations Jammin' Jungle Parade PUSH, Talking Trashcan Spectromagic Parade Sword in the Stone Ceremony (now closed) Tomorrowland Transit Authority Wishes- MK In 3 Parts: MK "Trolley Car Show"

[frodoforever56]

They will allow it now.

They didn't want you to before because of how new it was.

[tayragirl]

ilove timon

[videorobo]

Timon is a GREAT character to watch during this show.

Even when he is not on-stage, he reacts to the show performers and interacts with the audience.

[slayers13]

were u in the warthog section?

[videorobo]

The Warthog section is where the show is "centered."

The lighting, sound and producer's booth is located behind the seats in that section and everything is "played" in this direction.

But I had a camera in 3 different sections.

[slayers13]

omg! I LOVE THIS SHOW! its sad that they are retiring it from disney after this year its REALLY REALLY good!

[xhleighpx]

THEY'RE WHAT ?! WHAT are they doing ?!

[aesthedic]

Um, no they're not.

[titansgo2319]

I WISH THAT SIMBA ROBOT WAS MINE! but one thing, why would Simba be singing along to Be Prepared when he has no idea that song was ever sung?

[videorobo]

This show is NOT the story of the Lion King.

It takes place after the story in the film.

All the songs are just sung for entertainment, as part of the celebration and not as a part of any story line.

Simba is part of the audience.

Simba and the others are not robots, but elaborate puppets.

[titansgo2319]

I know, I just found it very funny that he was singing along when he had no idea the thing existed. And oops, forgot that he was a puppet. I'll buy him from Disney for a gazillion dollars...lol.

[luvinxu19]

i wonder how come they only have timon as a costume but for like simba and pumba they r robots? oh well.. lol

[videorobo]

Timon is written to physically interact with the other characters.

The non-walking characters are not robots, per se, but elaborate puppets.

[pointebabe99]

Totally miss this show!!! Great Memories!!!

[SeanyIndian]

this is a great video brings back alot of memories! thanks!!!

[Hellhammer1010]

Yes!!! it does bring back lots of memories!!!I want to go back!
