Disney Studios


The production company at which I work is based on Disney's studio lot. This provides an excellent opportunity to peek around and see what there is to see.

One of the most interesting things is all the brand identity going on. Everywhere you turn, there are posters for new Disney movies, weird architecture based on Snow White, whatever. Much like a Disney film, there are actually squirrels running around happily on perfectly manicured grass. It's so idyllic it's almost creepy.

I think the biggest advantage to being on a lot, as opposed to in an office building, is sharing your building with a lot of cool companies. Our next door neighbor, for example, is this guy. Everyone on the lot has that cool entertainment industry casual-clothing thing going on, unlike the offices we're moving to, which are populated by uptight lawyers.
