EPISODE #53 (EXPLICIT LANGUAGE) - UNRELEASED PRESENTATION FROM MIDSUMMER SCREAM 2018--Long Beach, CA.
One and all are welcome at this panel exploring the presence of lesbian, gay, bi, and trans artists in the horror community. From the “otherness” of the horror genre to the self-expression made possible by Halloween costumes, this niche has long afforded comfort and creativity to those who hide in plain sight, catapulting others to stardom.
With horror carving out more space in the mainstream and Halloween continuing year-round, how can we maximize our visibility? What counts as “good” representation? This panel of LGBT+ horroristas will discuss ways to make sure we’re not just following trends, but setting them — and in doing so, honoring the trails blazed by our kin throughout horror history.
Find community, get inspired, and embrace your inner diva monster! Our panelists have such sights to show you.
VINTAGE SEASON PASS PODCAST:
EPISODE #52- UNRELEASED PRESENTATION FROM MIDSUMMER SCREAM 2018--Long Beach, CA.
The future of the haunted attraction industry isn’t just about new technologies or the latest props and gags; it’s about young designers who are out there right now, learning from today’s leaders as they create their own experiences and chart the course for their own success. On Sunday July 29, join Midsummer Scream’s Creative Director, Rick West, as he introduces two up-and-coming designers that are part of Southern California’s haunted attraction evolution, Opechee Haunt’s Sam Kellman, and Murder House Productions’ Aurora Persichetti.Kellman (age 15) has been actively designing small attractions since he was 7 years-old. When he was 9, Sam started designing his own home haunts on Opechee Way in Glendale. In the past few years, Sam has pushed his creative limits by incorporating high-tech components such as integrated customized phone apps for guests, and RFID-driven effects in his haunts, which have ranged from adult-oriented chills to family-friendly shows. This year, Sam brings a preview of his Donnie Darko-themed experience to Midsummer Scream’s Hall of Shadows, giving guests a glimpse of an even bigger fan tribute he’s got planned for Opechee Haunt this Halloween.
Persichetti (age 21) took the SoCal haunt scene by storm in 2017 with her fan tribute home haunt based on the cult film Trick ‘r Treat. Previously, she led a team creating a home haunt in 2016 based on the Evil Dead. This particular home haunt in Thousand Oaks stunned fans who came from far and near to experience a theme park-quality attraction set up on a quiet street by a young lady who simply adores creating mazes and scaring the hell out of people. This fascinating panel discussion will include photos and footage of Opeeche and Murder House’s attractions, and will give fans the opportunity to learn more about two of the industry’s hottest up-and-coming designers as Rick asks Sam and Aurora what inspires them, what their process is as designers, and what comes next as they continue to mature and grow as haunters here in Los Angeles.VINTAGE SEASON PASS PODCAST:

On Saturday July 28 at the Long Beach Convention Center, Josh will discuss the logistics of his three-year journey documenting some of the hottest home haunts in the Southland with their designers, and will give Midsummer Scream guests their first look at the documentary’s full-length trailer.
Joining Josh on stage will be Shea Foley and Glenn Schmidt from Boot Hill in Irvine; Scott and Christian Sivley from Beware the Dark Realm in Santa Clarita; Greg and Donovan Packard from Restless Souls Manor in Palmdale; and Diane and Preston Meyer from Rotten Apple 907 in Burbank.

PRESS RELEASE:
Students Reimagine “The Old Mill” Ride for CMU Campus Carnival
PITTSBURGH, PA, Dec. 30, 2018 – A group of students at Carnegie Mellon University
announced their development of a modern take on the beloved Kennywood ride, The Old Mill.
The ride will be open on their campus from April 12-14, 2019 for CMU’s annual Spring Carnival
with free admission. The Old Mill is a new spin on the classic ride, taking guests on a journey
through a CMU building that has been transformed into “a museum of steel worker history that
was erected in a 20th-century steel mill”. Guests will board tour vehicles with a guide that will
walk them through the ins and outs of steel production. Along the way, guests will have exciting
encounters with blast furnaces, industrial machinery, and other relics of Pittsburgh’s past!
Kennywood’s Oldest Ride
The Old MIll opened at Pittsburgh’s Kennywood Park in 1901. It was a slow, “tunnel-of-love”
boat ride through spooky scenes. Eventually, The Old Mill was rethemed into Garfield’s
Nightmare, based on the eponymous orange cat in the comics, to mixed reception from guests.
The ride still remains Kennywood’s oldest ride, but its conversion into Garfield’s Nightmare
spawned several petitions for restoration to its original theme, garnering tens of thousands of
signatures. To this day, The Old Mill is beloved by Piitsburghers who remember its campy brand
of fun.
Carnegie Mellon’s “Fungineers”
Carnegie Mellon University is known for its academic prowess and emphasis on interdisciplinary
education. Roly Garcia, a junior in Information Systems and long-time Disney fanatic, had
dreamt of building a real ride his whole life. He soon discovered that one of his team members
had begun the Theme Park Engineering Group club, full of students also looking to achieve their
dreams in the theme park industry. The two groups merged their manpower to make Garcia’s
idea a possibility.
History Reborn
With their newfound members, the team began brainstorming ideas for their ride, which would
be the first fully-functional ride built by students in the entire world. Garcia and his “fungineering”
group searched left and right for their inspiration, which eventually came from their local
amusement park, Kennywood. To show their love for the rich history and culture of Pittsburgh,
the team chose the classic boat ride as the frame for their story. They would add a rich story to
The Old Mill by bringing guests into the fictional Garfield Steel Works Museum, which told the
story of the people who worked the (also fictional) Garfield Steel Works during its golden age.
The museum intends to begin its grand opening with a new, automated guided tour system.
However, the system seems to be acting haywire when guests decide to board, sending them
on an exhilarating journey through the old mill. Once they had their concept, Garcia (now the
official director of the project) went to work acquiring approvals and funding. Within several
weeks, Garcia went from having a team of five to having full funding, university approval, and
even an official state ride inspector!
Be sure to visit The Old Mill when it is open, April 12-14, 2019!

We speak to the industry leaders that made up the All-Star team that delivered this one-of-a-kind experience; Kyle Griffith, Bill Butler and Garner Holt, Cindy Emerick, Brian Yessian, Jeff Dittenber, plus Brent Young and Robert Coker. Discussion on all aspects of this massive production in this epic podcast. Hold on to you seats and get ready to fly.
Wings Over Washington, This state-of-the-art ride takes guests on a thrilling aerial tour of some of Washington State’s most stunning natural environments: Olympic National Forest, the San Juan Islands, Snoqualmie Falls, the Cascade Mountains, and more. The entire 20-minute-long guest experience includes a special-effects-filled pre-show and a fully themed theater, including custom animatronics by Garner Holt Productions. The main show theater is designed to look like a stargazing observation platform in the forest above Elliott Bay.
Young, Super 78’s President and Creative Director. “So we developed a complete story that takes
guests on a magical adventure. Inside the theater, the ride film is displayed with a system designed by Electrosonic state-of-the art Christie digital laser projectors.Binaural sound is delivered to each guest through the ride vehicle, from Dynamic Structures,complimenting the theater’s own complex surround sound system.

group, also performed for the attraction’s score.
About Miners Landing
Miners Landing is located on Pier 57 on Seattle’s historic waterfront. On August 17, 1896,
the SS Portland docked near the site of what is now the pier. On board was a ton of gold,
brought back from the Yukon by 68 lucky prospectors. The landing of the Portland made
headlines across the world, triggering the Klondike gold rush and turning Seattle into a
boomtown. Over the next century, Pier 57 was a shipping terminal and then used for fish
processing before being acquired by the Port of Seattle. The Griffith family officially
acquired Pier 57 during the early 1980s, which they still own and operate to this date. The
pier has become the site of multiple beloved Seattle attractions, including great eateries such
as The Crab Pot and the FishermanÅs Restaurant, as well as The Seattle Great Wheel. Wings
Over Washington is its most recent addition.

The gang uses Star Tours as an example in this conversation. If you are a writer in the industry, or becoming one, get your notebook out, and take a listen. Enjoy a KEY LESSON!

Yessian Music’s whole purpose is to transform an experience into a magical, multi-dimensional venture. This episode, Doug and Brent sit with Brian Yessian (Partner/CCO), Jeff Dittenber (Sr. Sound Designer/Audio Mixer), and Scotty Gatteno (Sr. Audio Mixer/Sound Editor) of Yessian, to discuss their journeys, as well as the components of creating music for themed and amusement experiences.

Jack Lindquist was not only the first President of Disneyland, but one of the most important innovators of theme park marketing. This podcast is a tribute to the amazing spokesperson that the themed entertainment industry lost on February 28, 2016. Here’s a recording of the 2013 IAAPA Disney Legends Panel, from Orlando, Florida. The presentation is based on the “Year of the Author.” It’s moderated by Bob Rogers (BRC Imagination Arts), and sitting on the panel is Jack Lindquist (former President of Disneyland, Author of In Service to the Mouse), Marty Sklar (former Ambassador of Walt Disney Imagineering, Author of Dream It! Do It!), and Lee Cockerell (former Executive Vice President of Operations for Walt Disney World Resort, Author of Creating Magic and The Customer Rules). Not the best recording (since this audio was never meant to be published), but a wonderful and educational piece on the industry, the importance of leadership, and includes the quick wit of the late, great, Jack Lindquist. Enjoy.

Nick Hutson (MusicalTalk.co.uk) takes the helm for Episode 76 and has an enlightening discussion with Broadway & TV’s John Tartaglia. As Nick would put it – “This is a Season Pass Theme Park Geek Fest!” However, even though John might be a “geek” for theme parks he has much experience within the industry as he discusses his love for parks and attractions, getting some Disney Star treatment, his work behind the magic, and he treats us to a Back Door Pass of the “Muppets Studio” attraction that (unfortunately) never flourished in Disney/MGM Studios Florida. Doug Barnes also joins Nick for an introduction and closing feedback. This show is great fun, please enjoy!
