Creator's Key Takeaways
I've never taken the tour here. I've worked on this lot before, so I've been in some of the studios and everything, but he did warn me I can't film the whole thing.
Really cool experience to get to see this. Not quite sure why we couldn't video it and only photo, but I was happy they let us do this.
Just getting to stand on the sound stage, look around, take it all in was pretty amazing.
Look at all the things that were recorded there. Gone with the Wind and American in Paris, Dr. Shivago, Ben her, the Wizard of Oz, Ace Ventura.
