Very very glad that Apple Music is hiring amazing artists and making these wonderful, rich, beautiful animations
And they're not afraid to try different styles, like this stop motion-y one
I can only assume this is a render and not a physical set, but I'm not so sure, the neon is constructed so correctly!
May these remind the world — and other departments at Apple? — that texture, color, detail, richness, even humor, can be pretty fun to look at and can make you feel happy
I'll post more if that's ok with you? Welcome to the Apple Music Editorial Graphics Department Appreciation Thread®
Some are subtle and beautiful
This one is hilariously LITeral 🥁 but really fun
I love the early CG vibes of this one and its dedication to a long loop
This one might actually be genuine stop-motion!
And this is more traditional animation.
The family ones are funny!
And sometimes very funny!
Finally (for today at least) is this beautiful day/night cycle that is just perfect and also makes me want to live here.

My lord. Disney+ is getting all the Disney Dollars. A good reminder for park fans that the parks are likely going into new attraction hibernation for at LEAST five years. Current projects will be finished, but I doubt we'll see anything new for a very, very long time. 😔
In a desperate attempt to extract some joy from 2020, we went to uncharted extremes: we bought a used Japanese minivan. Introducing our 1991 Toyota Town Ace. It makes me very happy.
This is the "Super Extra" trim with the incredible "Skylite Roof". It's a diesel, just like my first car. 4WD but you gotta turn a thing on the wheels to activate it and I probably never will. The engine is under the passenger seat. The happy design of it just feels fun.
I cannot express to you how bright and fun and… train-like?… the interior is. The kids absolutely love it. (And fall asleep a lot in it?) And yes, I drive on the right, which took very little adjustment, surprisingly.
It's Friday, please post your favorite old or obscure or long-gone Disney Parks photos!!
Here's some I took during a California Adventure preview event!!
There was this wild-ass parade (Eureka!) that celebrated California culture — yes, that man is wearing a Hollywood Bowl on his head, puppeteering a conductor
Are these some of the most questionable decisions ever made for a Disney parade? 😅😅😅 20 years ago, wild
