Hi Leigh,
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Thanks for sending us your question!
My family and I always purchase the
Disney Memory Maker because we LOVE taking lots of photos with Disney Characters. We also like to collect magical extras like Attraction Videos, Magic Shots and Animated Magic Shots – captured at select locations throughout the Walt Disney World Resort. In the Magic Shots, Disney Characters will be showing up in your pictures. In the Animated Magic Shots, animation featuring Disney Characters is added to your Disney PhotoPass® photos. Now that’s truly magical!
As of right now, Attraction Videos and Animated Magic Shots are available only as part of a Memory Maker entitlement. In other words, if you don’t purchase the Disney Memory Maker you will miss those magical extras, as they are not available to buy separately.
Did You Know? Attraction Videos require the use of
MagicBands to automatically associate content with Disney accounts. So be sure everyone wears their MagicBands when they hop on those rides. You really don't want to leave the theme parks without those videos of your family on the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, Expedition Everest - Legend of the Forbidden Mountain, DINOSAUR, Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith, and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror™.
I hope this information was useful, Leigh. Please visit us again soon with all your Disney vacation planning questions. We are always here to help you.
Wishing you a most memorable visit to the place where
The Magic is Endless!
Ritzy ºOº
