THE MAGIC OF EPCOT ON 35MM FILM
There’s something magical about capturing the vibrant energy of Walt Disney’s Epcot Center on 35mm film. As soon as I step through the gates, with my trusty film camera in hand, I know I’m in for a creative adventure. Epcot’s blend of futuristic architecture, cultural pavilions, and playful energy offers the perfect backdrop for film photography.
Shooting on 35mm film adds a layer of nostalgia to every shot. Epcot, with its retro-futuristic aesthetic and global diversity, feels like it was made to be captured on film. Whether it’s the iconic Spaceship Earth glowing in the early morning light or the intricate details of the World Showcase pavilions, 35mm film gives everything a timeless, dreamlike quality.
What I love most is how film slows me down. Instead of snapping away mindlessly, I carefully frame each shot, waiting for the perfect moment—a family laughing, the sun setting over the lagoon, or a performer in a cultural pavilion. The natural grain and vibrant colors of 35mm bring these moments to life in a way that feels authentic and full of character.
At Epcot, where every corner offers something unique and visually striking, shooting with film becomes an immersive experience. There’s a joy in knowing that the images I capture will be tangible, physical prints that preserve not just the scene but the feeling of being there. In a place as magical as Epcot, 35mm photography is a perfect match for creating lasting memories.
