![[4K] Illuminations : Reflections of Earth - EPCOT](/img/1.gif)
Loved this show. I wish they would bring it back. It was about so much more than just Disney.
There is no reason this needed to be discontinued....it was like an attraction. No one got tired of it, it was the perfect ending of an EPCOT day and it's theme, and wrapped up the park in a spectacular display. Nothing has ever compared.
Agreed!!!
This is the show I watched the last time I wnt to Epcot with my children. I can't thank you enough for preserving this is such high quality. I cry my eyes out every time I watch it. I'm just unable to convey how meaningful this is to me. Thank you and may many blessings come your way
There will never ever be a show like reflections of Earth. This was the pinnacle. The greatest. I’ve yet to see anything to come close.
Miss Eisner everyday with this. Iger couldn’t even pull this off if he had help.
What I love about this show is that it's so very Epcot. It's not a commercial for Disney, it's not designed to profit off our nostalgia - it's just about people. I'd love to see Epcot lean into that idea again someday.
Amen to that! Well said!
This was the piniclule of Disney nightime spectaculars. I hope that one day EPCOT decides to bring this show back revamped with new technology. 🎉
+1 I could not possibly agree more with what you said!
Stunning video. Proud to have been one of the 4 opening Earth Globe Barge operators. Returned part-time from 2010-2017.
Woah,....WOAH! You worked on this show? We need to talk. I'm working on starting an RoE documentary and I need to talk to people like you! PLEASE email me at clifflix@yahoo.com I would LOVE to talk to you and other people you know from the production of the show. I'm also talking with other staff and producers about this right now.. THANKS!!!
As you should be, Brian. And VERY proud!! And THANK YOU.🥰 We miss her terribly.😔
🌍🎆🌐
@@CLIFFLIX I knew someone by the name of Evan that worked on the show. He started as a Tigger at Disney then got into pyro later
It's beginning to look like the mouse is never going to top this show! Thanks for a great vid!
Agreed 10000000%
This is amazing. The BEST Disney fireworks video I have ever seen!
its a shame disney took this show away becuase the message is so needed today. we need UNITY and understanding more then anything else thank you for putting in so much work. thank god this will be presvered in history thanks to you and others
You are right
You are so
Couldn't have said it better
People these days have no idea how badly we need this show now more than ever
Thank you so much for making this! A wonderful tribute to possibly the best fireworks show ever devised.
You are one million% correct. It is the gold standard of nightime spectaculars!
Not only was this the best show at epcot it was the best night time show ever put on at the walt Disney world resort. Farewell illuminations reflections of earth you will be missed. Thanks for the memories CLIFFLIX.
Saw Luminous last night and while it was beautiful with a wonderful message, and we truly enjoyed it, nothing will match the 'original'. It's like a sequel to a movie, how do you compete with perfection? I also miss the Christmas tag and Walter Cronkite. Thank you for this video and helping keep Illuminations in our memories forever. Like you I have seen it countless times, and it never got old. Thank you again!
Honestly I thought luminous was so much better than this. The slow section with the spinning globe barge felt extremely empty and quite boring.
@@ivansantiesteban-bx8zeI dont think luminous can hold a candle to Illuminations- the score of Illuminations alone is incredible. I would love to see a revamaped version of it with new pyrotechnic effects.
Thank you for adding the "screamers" into the audio at the end of the second act. I'll never understand why they took those out - they were just as much a part of the soundtrack as the recorded music.
Amen to that! FYI,..I'm thinking about making full RoE documentary this year. If you are a big RoE fan, stay tuned for that! ;-)
Wow. Well done. It wasn't until I took the World Showcase guided tour that the true storyline to this show was explained. And it was really fascinating. Act I, Chaos, represented the creation of the planet before life; hence the staccato music, fireworks, and red lighting. Act II, Order, represented the beginning of life, ending with Homo sapiens and the human story; a change in fireworks and lighting colors help bring a sense of habitation. Act III, Meaning, featured the "We Go On" song, meant to inspire the viewer. Our tour guide specifically mentioned the flame. I hadn't realized this prior to the tour, but there are 19 torches around the lagoon, each meant to represent the common era (CE) centuries, each numbered. The globe's torch represents the 20th century. And you, the viewer, were meant to take the inspiration from the show--and specifically the concept of the flame--out into the world to create a 21st century of peace, harmony, and progress. In the end, you were the 21st torch. That tour added so much to the show afterwards. I wish it was made more apparent to the typical viewer what they were seeing and what it meant. I'm a literal person and would never have caught on, but frisson that night watching the show was unique.
You got it Matt! Y'know,...I'm working on an idea to do an RoE documentary that goes into the details about what every element of this show symbolizes. Believe me,..nothing in this show is arbitrary or an accident. Everything you see has a purpose. Every image, every single firework, all the colors,...everything. We'll see. I'm at the early "Blue Sky" stages of planning this. Thanks for watching! ;-)
Thank you! I do miss this show, so many memories of watching this with my family growing up so I really appreciate your words at the beginning. I wish they updated the technology instead of replacing it. Love the ending shot of the barge…
Wow, that was spectacularly done and brings back a flood of memories. I had the opportunity to work in the College Program back in 2000/2001 with Epcot as home for me . I took joy in watching the show as well as seeing guests immersed it. This video pays pays wonderful homage to this show and we beautifully done. Thanks for giving it the royal treatment it deserves!
For me, this show is the grand master of all Nightime Spectaculars.
It's my favorite. Miss RoE
I worked at International Gateway in the evenings for many years. Loved seeing this show every time I worked. Heartbroken it is over. Thank you for the great video of it. It'll live on forever!
One of my favorite Disney memories is taking my oldest son on his first ever Disney trip and him getting to watch his first ever Fireworks show sitting in my shoulders at the balcony at the Japan Pavillion.
I would come to the park with my family at least once a month to watch this show when I was a kid. Some of my earliest memories are watching RoE on the bridge in France, and truly this was the first show/attraction that sparked my obsession with EPCOT history. I was there on the final night, and yes, I too got quite emotional when "We Go On" played for one last time. I've probably seen it a hundred times. This was the exact show that inspired me to take up lighting design as a career. Thank you for preserving it so well Cliff. Generations to come will enjoy this show thanks to your work.
I always wanted to propose to that someone special when the time came during act 3. Just something special about act 3 and the post show feeling just felt perfect to me since the first time I saw it when I was 10. I am really sadden to see it go and I would never be able to see it again and do that one thing. but to the future and hopefully an even better show!
My favorite show besides Fantasmic. This show is my heart!!
Reflections of Earth is my absolute favorite show. You said it right....This show is my heart ;-)
I miss it Sooooo much 😢
That balcony in Japan was my favorite viewing point!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your efforts to capture one of the best night time shows ever conceived by Disney. May it live on.....
Amen Richard....A-men!
I was actually blessed with a parent who works for the company. I myself use to work for the company as well. I watched it with my family, friends, as a teen went on dates to epcot to see it and when I got off from work!!It was amazing and yes I use to cry at the end!! The number one best firework or all time, Fantasmic was second. Beautiful memories that will be missed!! I was fortunate enough to see Illuminations the month before it was cancelled with my childhood friend. I hope they bring it back for a little while in the future so my kids get to enjoy it one day.
Hi. I’m from New Zealand. I probably saw this show about 12 times. It is Disney at their best. Please don’t ever take this video down. I will always come back from time to time to see it when I need to. Great job in filming and editing the show. Thanks.
Beautiful!! So stunning. I was fortunate enough to experience this classic nighttime spectacle! As the message reads, WE GO ON so that the Earth will always be our HOME. ⭐️ 🌎 🌍 🌏
I can't believe how much I miss Illuminations!!! I use to be a cast member before I joined the Army and would LOVE to stop by EPCOT to end my day with Illumination. Thank you this video brings back special memories for me 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Beautifully filmed and edited Clifflix. My favourite show of all time. I adore the music by Gavin Greenaway and the fact that this show is so music driven. We miss you Reflections!
I’d push 1000 times on the Like button if I could. Even after all this time and several Disney nighttime shows, I still think this is one of the best achievements they ever produced. You video gives it all the credit it deserves and I’m happy to be able to relive it from home !
Wow,....thank you soooooo much! Yup, like you, I will cherish this show forever!
Thank you so much for perfectly preserving this awesome show. I grew up watching IllumiNations (the show is only a few months older than I am!) and fell in love with it more and more as I grew. Amazing work!!
I just watched this again. Always get emotional. This show really represents for me our visits to Walt Disney World when our children were little. Each day at EPCOT ended with this show which we really looked forward to each night. Now our kids are grown and the show is gone. I hope this video is always on RUclips for us to reminisce.
Thank you so much for documenting this superb piece of art. I miss it too, but watching it here helps keep the memories!
Guess what?...There is more BRAND NEW RoE content on the way in 2024. Stuff nobody has ever seen before! More info to come soon!
That brings back good memories
I’m so glad I discovered your channel through DIZPod. This video was so special to me I cried through the entire video. I plan to watch your other videos and I do hope someday you do Wishes my favorite fireworks show. Thank you for this beautiful work I’ve never seen anything so amazing.
Thank you for sharing last show I saw before my late wife passed in the nov 2019 ❤
Thanks for this amazing video of IllumiNations Cliff. My mum and I watched it on our big TV and we both cried. This is the best recording of this wonderful show I have seen so far.
Also I flew over all the way from Germany to see the last performance back on September 30th 2019.
THAT was a magical evening. It was so sad but I just kept thinking that night how lucky we all were to have this show for 20 years when it was never supposed to last that long to begin with. I REALLY enjoyed talking to all of the RoE "super fans" that night. It just felt great to experience that show one last time with so many people just like us.
@@CLIFFLIX Hi Cliff, I've had send you an Email last week.
Did it arrived oder was it perhaps blocked by a Spam Filter. 🤔😱😅🙈
Greetings from Nils
I miss this show so much!!!
Gorgeous. I miss it so much.
Me too!!.....sigh.....me toooo :-(
Love, love, LOVE how you seamlessly provide a variety of viewing perspectives! You're the best producer of Disney videos I've seen!
I can't believe I racked my nerves and wasted time through the years capturing home videos. Thank you for sharing your wonderful work!
Watching this has now become a New Year tradition.
I’ve commented before, but this is my goto fix for the greatest Disney fireworks show ever. So, so good. Thank you
When I was 4, I thought the "Life" section of the show was Disney spilling a glass of milk in the sky over and over again and having to clean up the milk before the next fireworks could go off
We’re so lucky to have you uploading these amazing show edits. Thank you, truly. I first saw IllumiNations for the millennium celebration when I was 10 and I’ve been mesmerized by it ever since. A very special place exists in my heart for this show, particularly the music. It’s like seeing one of my most fond childhood memories in a cinematic experience and it hits me in my SOUL.
I'm a bit older then you but your words apply to me 100% as well!! ;-)
I do truly miss this show. People miss HEA, I miss it too. This is one of the greatest, if not the greatest nighttime spectacular Disney has ever produced, and seeing it go makes me so sad.
Yeah, Harmonious sucks compared to this. I've avoided watching any videos of IllumiNations since it ended, so this is my first time listening/watching since then. What a nearly perfect show. Always thought that globe part went on a little too long with not much happening but other than that.. Some of the most beautiful music ever composed put to a fantastic show. Not to mention your production quality on this video! So well put together and loved all of the angles.
Agree
This captures the ambience of coming out of dinner at Tepan Edo and just getting swept away by the moment….
Great video Cliff. Discovered the show earlier this year and I now love it. I actually remade the chaos and we go on part. Your editing is great with these shows. I never got to see the show in person but I do enjoy watching it from you.🌬🔥
This is a GORGEOUS video and an incredible tribute to a wonderful show! I saw Illuminations Reflections of Earth 3 years ago and I was literally in awe from the moment it started. I cried throughout!! This show is a powerful reminder that we are all interconnected as one global family and that we are truly better together. When one looks at the state of affairs our world is in, it's nice to have a show that serves to remind us all that we are better than all the hateful forces that seek to divide us.
We love your videos and the intros. i recognize the shirt from another person we watch. Great coverage as always.
"Mickey Views!" Great spot there! If you are looking for the best Disney channel on RUclips I strongly recommend that everybody search for and subscribe to "Mickey Views". You will not be disappointed! Wearing Brayden's shirt is my small tribute to the great work he does! ;- )
@@CLIFFLIX Braden really knows his stuff financial and all. He has a superior understanding of what makes things tick.
@@MESECKJUNK - After talking with him a couple of times at the parks for a while, it sure seems like you are right about that!
I'm glad you took time to develop this great video; i can still come back to watch it. It truly was such a great experience. Miss this show a ton!
Guys, the video is 4k but when I change the listing to "public" I also added "premiere" to it and I think It's stuck in 1080 for about 20 min. Check back shortly for the 4k playout option.
4K is there now 👍
I miss that show
Indeed!!....I miss it VERY much!!!
Had to watch this again after what you have announced tonight! I love this show!
I loved this show and saw it a few times when my grandmother was alive and lived in Florida. It gives me memories of great family time there.
I have literally the exact same momeries!!
Dang, some of your medium shots of the pavilions are portrait quality. So well done, sir!
Thanks for the effort over the years keeping this show alive and watchable for all us RoE fans.
I still have one of your old HD versions backed up so I could re- watch it anytime in-between park visits!
Sadly now it's only through videos like these that we can experience a fraction of what it felt like to experience (what I still think is) the greatest nighttime spectacular WDW has ever had.
Hands down the absolute best night show at Epcot. My husband got me a fireworks cruise for one of the last shows and I just sat there and cried. This show had so much meaning, most definitely needed in this world of ours today. Harmonious just will never be a show I’ll want to accept. Thanks so very much for letting me relive this beautiful memory again!!
Outstanding work! Thank you! It is the soundtrack that makes this show so wonderful. I hope one day Disney finds such originality and brilliance once again.
Great video! Having worked on this show and other variations of Epcot's fireworks/laser shows over the years, I've seen my share of videos, but yours gave me goosebumps and got me a little teary eyed. Well done, sir.
Thanks!! You worked on this show? If so, can you PLEASE contact me. I would LOVE to talk to you. I'm thinking about making an RoE documentary and I would LOVE to talk to you and others that you know about this. Can you email me at - clifflix@yahoo.com - Thank you soooo much! ;-)
Thank you thank you you are a genius was the last show me and my late wife saw she died in 2002 so thank you brings back great memories and I brought the cd 6 times so thank you again cliff
Great job with this Cliff! I discovered this show during one of my summer breaks and loved it ever since. Now a big fan of it. Your editing is so great with Illuminations.
Thank you Cliff. Great video and getting to know you via the live chat, was amazing. Appreciate your love for ROE.
I was AWESOME to chat with you guys! I can't believe you guys let me talk that long! lol Thank you sooo much for attending!
This makes me feel like I am actually standing there watching this. Your work on this is incredible !! I saw this show many times as a kid. One funny thing though. The first time I ever saw this show in person, I thought the Fire Ball float in the beginning of the show was actually on fire. Ha Ha!!
Another stunning capture of a WDW classic show!
IllumiNations was an amazing show, Although I love Harmonious, something about IllumiNations still stays so special. That farewell with "We Go On" is always a magical moment
illuminations has the music and Harmonious has Disney songs
If you've ever seen any tomorrowland aftermovie you will recognize this narrator's voice.🤭🤭🤭
I love this. It’s amazing quality and captures the story and colors perfectly. I also love how you kept the audio from your videos made pre-2014, I really miss hearing the screaming whistlers during the Celebration segment and I was able to pretend that those “twisting cracklers” were the whistlers.
Another fantastic video. We saw this show a few times through the years in person and enjoyed it very much!
Spectacular video! Thank you for uploading
This for doing this, Cliff. This might be the best version of this show on RUclips yet. I miss it!
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. ;-)
Love it Cliff, thank you so much for these memories!!!!
If you like this one...I can tell you there is new Reflections if Earth content on the way in the future! Stay tuned!
@@CLIFFLIX oh boy!!! Thank you for that! I really do hope they bring it back better than ever!! Cliff if you have a PayPal where I can donate to please post it. 🫶
@@Dochart268 Sure,...my Paypall is cliff_622@yahoo.com :-)
Best fireworks show I ever saw at Disney anywhere and this is a great recording. Thanks very much for this!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!! Wow!! TUGGING AT MY HEART STRINGS! SO MANY MEMORIES!!
Greatest nighttime show ever created, rest in piece 😭😭😭
I just discovered your channel tonight and was stunned to see this video got 'only' 6,880 views at the time of writing. You deserve much more views, great work! :)
Thank you for creating such a moving tribute to the most beloved show there'll ever be. Oh, how I miss this show. It made you a better person by just experiencing it.
Agree 101% :- )
Thank you so much for this video! I can’t believe I just found it but you can tell how much hard work and LOVE went into this video. I will always return to this video when I need a little reminder of IllumiNations. 🙂
It's the best show..and EPCOT should bring it back, bigger and better!
Cliff, first off, outstanding work!! You have captured the best versions of this show!! IllumiNations is my all-time favorite show EVER!!! The pre-show music was played at our wedding during dinner, and Promise was our last dance song! Like yourself my wife and I and now our children have seen the show more times than I can remember. Is there any way at all I could get you to get me a copy of one of your beautifully shot World-Showcase-Plaza-only views or front row as we call it? I'd be so grateful as I have tried for 18 years to capture the contrasting colors and quality from our favorite spot, but to no avail. You've done it perfectly!! I could send you some blank blu ray discs or an SD card if you wanted or even a RUclips upload would be great! If you wouldn't mind, I can't tell you how happy that would make me and my family. Sincerely, Frank
That end song gets me.
Thanks Cliff! I have to ask, are you wearing a Mickey Views Spaceship Earth T-shirt? If so, Brayden is a legend and absolutely amazing!! Thanks again for this gift of Reflections of Earth 🌍
I am a HUGE fan of Brayden! So I wear that shirt proudly! ;-)
@@CLIFFLIXAgreed! Brayden continues to simply crush it, I am a huge fan, thanks again.
FANTASTIC!!
Wonderful tribute to the classic show. Thanks for taking this on.
We need to bring it back
Omg, Cliff. I needed a (paper towel) for the tears this time! 😭💦 Thank you so very much for doing this again, and everytime!! We can still relive this here because of you.🙂 And what a beautiful job you do putting it together, as always. This video is priceless, and the show, timeless!!! 🎆🌐🎆
Did you get this (above) message☝️, Cliff?😏 Lol.
@@kendallskeep - I see it now! ;-) I'm so glad you liked it. Next on the docket is a new "Happily Ever After 2021" shot it in 8k. It's in production right now and it's really crazy with a lot of new A/V capture techniques. Then comes "HarmonioUS 2021", then the new MK show and then a Fantasmic Disneyland 2022! Then,...if that wasn't enough a possible RoE documentary!
@@CLIFFLIX
WOW! 😯 Disney is gonna have to start paying you, Cliff! Lol. Can't wait!! 😄👏
@@kendallskeep Nah,...hehe, it's all just a fun hobby for me. My goal is to DOUBLE my CLIFFLIX video production output. So, instead of one video a year for my channel,....I'm trying to make TWO videos a year. It's a big jump, so let's see if I can pull that off. ;- )
@@CLIFFLIX
I have complete confidence in you, Cliff! Whatever you strive to do, it will be done with excellence. But don't (rush) any of it! Your videos are well worth the wait!! 🎥 😄👌
Amazing work sir 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you for capturing this show.
This is the most visually stunning recording of RoE I've seen on RUclips. Congrats and THANK YOU! My 8 & 11 year old Sons loved it and said it was like being there.
WOW!,...thank you soooo much! I'm glad y'all's like it. ;- )
Your Happily Ever After in 8K is awesome! I'm not a fan of multiple angles when comes to fireworks, but that one worked out well. Please post a single 4k wide angle video of Illuminations one day. That would make my day. Oh, a single angle 8k of Ever After would be amazing too! Thanks! subscribed
Thank you so much for this, I cried the whole time
Thank you again 🤗💞amazing video liked & thumbs up 👍🏻
This brought us so many amazing memories! Thank you so much for this gift 🙏. Where we can find the songs of this amazing show? Already tried Shazam them but their results doesn’t take us anywhere. Will appreciate the info. Again, THANKS A LOT for bringing the magic Home! ✨
The RoE celebration is not over. There is another upgraded edit of this show on the way and a possible RoE show documentary in the works this year!
Those fire barge shots are amazing!
Woow Cliff , Awesome, really appreciate your work, you're fantastic, I remember all sounds and music, thanks.
Spectacular video quality, Cliff! One comment, though - listening to this through solid headphones it seems pretty tinny, with very little sound in the bass ranges. Compared to your Happily Ever After (8k) video, the sound on this one is a lot less full. Was there a problem with the export?
Yup....there is a new version of RoE coming out in 2022. It will have visual enhancements and a greatly improved audio track. Stay tuned.
I'm brand new to your channel, and this is THE BEST video I've ever watched of Illuminations. I love this show so much. I'm glad I got to see it before it was done. No clue how they're going to make a better show. Great, great job on this video. This was stunning to watch.
