I never grew up with Disney as a big part of my life so it wasn’t until later that I learned about Walt, and all the folks related to the work at Disney and some of the amazing things they did.

I really didn’t know of all the cool technology and etc they made.

I wonder when and why they stopped making films like these. I've been enjoying watching Behind the Attraction and The Imagineering Story on Disney+ with my kids. They are full of these old films of Walt going over their ideas and explaining the things they are and have built. It's a shame that stopped.

Good stuff. Back in the day technical innovation and risk taking was an integral part of Disney... I miss those days. How far the house of mouse has fallen.

Disney still is highly innovative in the technology space. Perhaps you’re just not familiar with their work?

You can go see one in person, it sticks through the floor of the Disney Family Museum in the Presidio. There is lots of animation history in that building. If you just wanna see the camera the top part pokes into the gift shop which you don't need admission to go into
