BREAKING VIDEO: Take a First Look at NEW Avatar-Inspired Tree of Life Sequence
If you were following along with us here at MickeyBlog over the weekend, you may have seen the news that, in celebration of this weekend’s premiere of Avatar: The Way of Water, Disney added a special new Pandora sequence to the Tree of Life evening Awakenings projection show.
Well we are so excited to share the news that our MickeyBloggers Greg and Elyssa popped over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom this evening and captured a video of the new evening display. All we can say is WOW!
Since the second Avatar film takes us below the surface of Pandora’s oceans, the new Tree of Life display features rich hues of blues, greens and purples.
You also get flashes of some of the unique creatures/moments you’ll encounter during the film which hits theaters this weekend!
It was amazing how these moments completely transformed the theme park.
This is one of my favorite transitions with the branches and leaves of the Tree of Life glowing in stunning pastel pink tones.
The base of the tree also comes alive with beautiful earth-tones.
That is before we delve back into the underwater world.
Some of the projections show us familiar Pandora flora and fauna.
These moments are definitely giving us Na’vi River Journey vibes.
I don’t know about you but the Tree of Life projections have us pretty excited to see Avatar: The Way of Water!
In addition to changes to the Tree of Life projection show, guests will also want to be on the lookout for new The Way of Water merch as well as themed eats and treats throughout the theme park.
Our MickeyBlogger Elyssa also managed to capture some fantastic videos allowing you to watch the beauty of Pandora unfold. Let’s take a look:
The new Avatar projections were created by James Cameron’s Lightstorm Entertainment.
Cameron’s team worked in collaboration with Disney Live entertainment.
As you can see the new moments bring the beauty and bioluminescent wonder of Pandora to the Tree of Life.
However, Awakenings still remains true to the original focus of Tree of Life Awakenings which is to celebrate the magic of nature.
If you’re lucky enough to be visiting Walt Disney World this holiday season then be sure to visit Animal Kingdom as the sun goes down for this incredible moment.
Also, don’t miss the much-anticipated sequel – Avatar- The Way of Water when it arrives in theaters on December 16th.
We expect even more The Way of Water details to be released in the days ahead so keep following along with us!
