If you didn’t quite get your Disney fix with the creative splash mountain video we featured earlier, this should clear that right up: photographer Daniel Navarrete has put together a massive timelapse of the magical land in the middle of LA. The video is comprised of more than 30,000 photos that were taken over the course of an entire year; so sit back and enjoy a year’s worth of Disneyland from the comfort of your favorite computer chair.

It’s amazing what simple photography and tons of time and dedication can produce. This stop motion video was created using 25,000 pieces of paper and a 10 foot wall.

Our “Give a Day, Get a Disney Day” story unfolds through thousands of individual photos featuring Walt Disney World Cast Members moving sticky notes around by hand – no video cameras were used. Also, there were no post-production “tricks” used to create the giant sticky note Mickey Mouse, the background or to “animate” the pieces of paper. See for yourself.

Also, keep your eye out for the photographer behind the camera making a cameo appearance.
