Disney Detail

I really value people with talent. More impressive, however, are people who accomplish. The Disney Company is full of talented people who take no short-cuts in their work, and consequently, accomplish extraordinary things!

Example #1:
The Animal Kingdom has authentic thatched roofs on their huts in "Africa." Thirteen men traveled from South Africa with bundles of native berg grass (harvested by their wives, sisters, and mothers) and using twine, constructed roofs for all the buildings in Harambe.



Example #2:
The Flower and Garden Festival at EPCOT. Right at the entrance, Toy Story 3 characters welcomed guests to the park. Lotso the bear not only looked soft, but he smelled of strawberries!



Example #3
Belle's dress is hand stitched. It represents $15,000 worth of fabric, beading, and craftsmanship. Could they have cut corners? Of course! Only now, Belle really feels like royalty, and once again, the cast members are shown that their company values excellence. Knowing these details increases respect among employees, and Disney World continues to be a magical place for everyone.
