After 22 months of collaborating on this wonderful Disney movie inspired by the legendary Disneyland ride, our teams delivered photorealistic jungles with a wide variety of lush-looking vegetation, trees, creatures, a submarine, and a digidouble of Frank! Beyond plants, all of the other crucial elements that compose a real jungle had to be created as well. Our teams built lush settings replete with deep waters, and creatures like toucans, macaws, bees and other insects. There was even a vulture creeping around. One of the most interesting creatures our teams created were the incomparable pink dolphins that live in the Amazon basin. Many different departments collaborated to make each part of the jungle come alive. We can now say that we definitely enjoyed the ride!
