Disney Imagination Competition
Second Runner Up
Hong Kong, 2015
Background
2015 Hong Kong Disney Imagination Competition is one of the most remarkable projects I've ever participated in. Our team won Second Runner-up Award among hundreds of competing teams from Hong Kong, Macau, and China. It's my most impressive project not only because of the contribution of time and passion I spent, but also the experience I gained during the five months’ journey.
The goal of this competition is to create a brand new design for Hong Kong Disney Land Resort in any kind of approaches included architectural design, show play design, resort sites and so on. We were asked to give the visitors an abnormal and unforgettable experience.
Disney gave out training to the top 10 shortlisted groups at the last two months of the competition, it enhanced our ability to present our designs in appealing ways. After couple weeks of training, we, later on performed the final presentation in front of Disney’s Chief Executive Officers and hundreds of audiences. The result was successful. This project made me realize that having my own creations and designs be seen and used is one of the most exciting things to me ever.
