One Little Spark!

Mickey's Ten Commandments and the Road to Imagineering

By: Marty Sklar

Narrated by: Jeff Cummings

We've all read about the experts: the artists, the scientists, the engineers - that special group of people known as Imagineers for The Walt Disney Company. But who are they? How did they join the team? What is it like to spend a day in their shoes?

Disney Legend Marty Sklar wants to give back to fans and answer these burning questions. When Marty was president of Walt Disney Imagineering, he created a list of principles and ideals for the team, aptly named Mickey's Ten Commandments. Using this code of standards as his organizational flow, Marty provides listeners with insights and advice from himself and dozens of hands-on Imagineers from around the globe. It's a true insider's look like no other!

Helpful and inspiring for the creative in me

I was delighted to hear Marty’s explanations and examples of Mickey’s 10 Commandments, as well as mentioning examples of the related mistakes for each! Marty includes stories of many different imagineers, and it paints a picture of how varied their career backgrounds are from engineers to literary scholars.

Perfect for the Ultimate Disney Geek or someone who is curious

More like a collection of emails.

I’ll admit I was very excited to read Marty’s latest Imagineering book. However, the majority of this book is a collection of emails from other Imagineers about their various paths to Disney. Still worth the read for any Disney Parks and Imagineering fan.
