VIDEO: Imagineer Behind Ratatouille ‘Bistrot Chez Rémy’ Talks Cotino – A Storyliving by Disney Community, Calls Rancho Mirage Walt Disney’s ‘Laughing Place’

Disney has released the first of a new series of videos called “The Story Behind the Making of Cotino,” about the creation of the first Storyliving by Disney community currently under construction.

Amy Young discusses Conino - A Storyliving by Disney Community

This video features Cotino community’s creative director, Imagineer Amy Young, who was the interior designer of Bistrot Chez Rémy in Disneyland Paris. Young talks about the importance of details, guest service, and “blue sky” concepts for Disney projects. She also talks about the location of Cotino — Rancho Mirage, California — and its significance to Walt Disney.

Watch the video below.

Future installments in this series will include “Setting the Stage,” “Magic is in the Details” and “The Big Idea,” each featuring a different Disney Imagineer.

Last month, Disney shared a video with the first views of the construction of Cotino. Check out some of the house concepts.
