The hair; the voice; the sweet seduction of another brilliant idea. Of course we’re talking about Eddie Sotto, who got his start at Knott’s Berry Farm and Landmark Entertainment Group before shaking things up at Walt Disney Imagineering with his blacklight-bathed office, vision for pushing Main Street USA in Paris from the turn-of-the-century to the 1920s, reimagining the Theme Building at LAX to Encounter Restaurant, and work on Pooh’s Hunny Hunt, Mission Space, and Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom. Join us as Eddie climbs aboard the time machine to revisit these groundbreaking projects, as well as the award-winning work he’s done since 2004 at SottoStudios for the likes of Virgin Galactic, Blue Origin, Aston Martin, Porsche, and Universal Studios.
