16 Months of TAFI

Coming up later this month is the sixteen month anniversary of this team. In January of 2013 I started the original TAFI website but it never took off. Then, in the fall of that same year, I shared this group with the members of WDWMagic.com along with a new concept called the ICS. Many people joined and expressed excitement for the program. I have to thank so many people who have made this a fun and possible time.
Here's that great group in no particular order;

TAFI Showcase #2: The Legend of the Samurai by BryceM

This was a concept developed by Bryce for WED's Think Different Challenge. The challenge that week was to simply design an attraction, anywhere, any theme. There was only one catch...you couldn't place guests in a vehicle that moved them around. BryceM took this concept and ran with it, executing with this amazing attraction described in an extremely creative way. Enjoy...

Legend of the Samurai is an upcoming walk-through attraction to Epcot’s Japan pavilion in The World Showcase. Guests are placed in the role of investigators, hired to explore an ancient Japanese temple that has been converted to a museum, due to recent mysterious happenings...

TAFI Showcase #1: Hyperion Avenue by WED99

This will be one of our common articles that will highlight some of the best concepts our acquaintances have created. In our first edition we have WED99's Hyperion Avenue. He created this as a new land to replace Animation Courtyard at Disney's Hollywood Studios, and with the following post he blew everyone away. We hope you enjoy its brilliance also......

Intro
I’m tired. I’m hungry. I’d give my left arm for a bite out of that kid’s churro. How exactly does that small rope manages to hold back thousands of people? Whatever, I don’t care, nothing can ruin my day! Not even the 40 degree florida humidity! I’m at Hollywood Studios, Disney world's newly refurbished park! What to do first? The beautiful Melrose Avenue maybe? Or get myself a malt at the soda fountain? Or maybe follow the crowds to the new Star Wars land? No. None of them. I know exactly where I’m going. Hyperion Avenue! The beautiful new area that replaced the underwhelming Animation Courtyard. I wonder what it’s like? I have never really searched into it before. Oh well, I’m sure I’ll be-- WOOOOOW!

I thought we had 10 minutes until rope drop! Jeeez, I can’t even breathe in these crowds. Glad I’m avoiding Star Wars for a while. Ah good, everyone’s turning left. Luckily, I’m heading ri-- Wow. I never noticed how amazing the chinese theatre is without the hat. Thank goodness it’s at the front of the park now, really does suit. Ok, now to Hyperion Avenue!
