Toward the end of the 80's there was an Aerobic Dancing get away in Orlando, FL. We visited Universal Studios which is a theme park based on the movies. They have also shot some movies there. When I visited they had a lot of scense based on a partially animated film 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit'. Below are a couple of sets from that film. Universal Studios, Orlando, FL. =0=

It was interesting as they wanted to give the feel of the facades that they have on regular movie sets. Above are the back of some sets. However, if you notice they use steel frames beh9ind the set which are way to permanent for a real movie set. However, these sets need to endure time and weather (even the occassional hurricane), so they are way more permanent that a regular movie set. In essence, a facade of a facade. Below is a view of the 'proper' side of the set. They also haad interests where they manufactured effects as shown below. Universal Studios, Orlando, FL. =0=

The visitors got to be at the center of the effects such as a wave shown above. They also would mock up a shooting based on Raiders of the Lost Ark. The sets were portable and would be wheeled in for the audience. The shootings included stunt men with their stunts, of course. Universal Studios, Orlando, FL. =0=
