/* Attraction Plot */
==Attraction Plot==
When guests first enter Walt Disney One Man's Dream, they pass by a series of photos of Walt Disney. The photos range from his creation of Mickey Mouse, to his presentations about [[EPCOT ]] and the Florida Project near the end of his life. After passing by these photos, guests begin the self-guided tour by passing exhibits showcasing Walt's early life. Here, images of him and his family at a very young age are shown on both the left and right walls.
The next exhibits in the attraction showcase Walt growing up in Marceline, Missouri in the early 1900s. Here, the captions for the exhibit showcase how Walt's childhood in the small town would inspire him later in life (an example of this being his creation of [[Main Street USA]]). Other childhood events, such as Walt portraying Abraham Lincoln in a play, and Walt's love of trains are also showcased in this section. Continuing foreword, guests reach an exhibit titled The Disney Brothers, which takes place in 1917. This exhibit shows how close Walt and his brother Roy were, as well as foreshadowing their eventual partnership in creating the Disney Company.
On their left, guests can then see a recreation of Walt's EPCOT announcement in 1966. The maps and designs Walt used during presentation are present, along with a cardboard cutout of Walt himself. The real announcement is also played on a television here. Nearby, a scene showing an Imagineer workshop where Imagineers are seemingly working on the Audio Animatronic for Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln can be seen. Another exhibit in the area features Roy Disney dedicating Walt Disney World on his brother’s behalf.
Finally, in the back of the museum the Disney Company’s achievements after Walt's death are featured. These achievements include: [[Epcot]], [[Disney's Hollywood Studios]], [[Disney's Animal Kingdom]], Disney's California Adventure, the Disney Vacation Club, recent Disney movies, and the purchases of ABC and Pixar. Guests can also see an exhibit dedicated to the Disney Archives in California, including various historical Disney merchandise. The final exhibit in the museum is a large-scale model of the 2012 [[Fantasyland]] expansion.
After touring the museum, guests can enter a small theater to watch a short biographical film about Walt’s life. The film (which is currently narrated by Julie Andrews) tells the story of Walt’s life from his childhood in Missouri to his death in 1966. Walt Disney himself narrates much of the film, telling guests about his family, cartoons, films, and eventually theme parks.
