Ever wonder how they film some of the Disney commercials in the park? Well they rope stuff off and just do it as guests are walking past. On our trip in September of 2014 they filmed in several locations around the Magic Kingdom. It was only slightly inconvenient when they were moving from location to location. They kid thought it was really cool to see all the behind the scenes stuff that goes into filming. It was a super slow time at the Magic Kingdom so it really had little impact. However, we know TV production does not really care much about how busy the park is. in 2014 spring break they filmed "The Middle" for several days. That filming would have been more of an inconvenience then just this little commercial.
They were filming a little on the stage across from Pirates. You can see just how much space and stuff it involves. The cast members do a good job of making people move away and not watch or take pictures to close. You could see how it could be an inconvenience on a busy day.
Another angle of the action.
Here is the commercial. We saw it about a month later while watching TV.
One of my pet peeves about Disney commercials is when you do something in the commercial that you can not do at the parks. Like meet Jake in the Magic kingdom in the middle of grass, he is only available to meet at Hollywood Studios. It is fun to see it on TV and say hey we saw that.
Can you spot Ryan Seacrest? He hosted the 2010 Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade.
The taping of the Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade usually happens in early December.
