| Disney, Zemeckis to Develop New Studio
Walt Disney Studios is joining forces with Robert Zemeckis and two of his longtime partners to create a studio that will produce three-dimensional, motion-captured animated films. Capture technology records actors' movements and feeds them into a computer to create the 3D animation. Zemeckis used the technology in his recent films "The Polar Express" and "Monster House." Joining Zemeckis in the venture will be producing partners Jack Rapke and Steve Starkey. The trio are currently working on an animated version of "Beowulf," set to be released by Columbia Pictures in the fall.

The Walt Disney Company is using its stable of imaginary princesses as inspiration for a new line of wedding gowns.

"They will be high-fashion and very modern," said Paulette Cleghorn, president of Designer Loft Productions, a New York public-relations firm representing Kelly. "We are modernizing the princess concept. There is a difference between a girl who is inspired by Snow White and one who wants to dress like Snow White."
The Downtown Disney Resort Area Hotels a consortium of seven hotels in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., have millions of new reasons to visit in 2007, as all of the properties have completed or are in the process of completing major renovations.

The companies' chief executive officers signed an accord with the government Tuesday to build about 5,000 houses and apartments on a 1,300-acre site.

Jay Rasulo has revealed that the Walt Disney Company is exploring smaller, deeply immersive parks, expanding its water park offerings at Walt Disney World resort and adding ships to the Disney Cruise Line.
