And today, Disney Vacation Club released a video that gives a glimpse into the creation of both the resort and the new Skyliner.

Called the Art of Inspiration, this first look will allow you to learn and see more about Disney’s newest Vacation Club resort — Disney’s Riviera Resort. This video also includes a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of the Disney World Skyliner Gondola System.

According to Disney, Walt “was always interested in fellow artists – where they studied, who their influences were and how they brought their creations to life.” In the video, Imagineers and artisans will “share their influences including their love of Disney and European artistry, and just how they are making Disney’s Riviera Resort into a place that both inspires and feels like home.”
