Universal Orlando ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE Preview Center 1997

Before Universal Orlando's ISLANDS OF ADVENTURE theme park opened in 1999, a walk-through Preview Center experience was set up next door at Universal Studios Florida, to give park guests an exciting sneak peak at the upcoming addition. Bonus footage at the end of the video includes the TWISTER store (before the attraction opened in 1998) and some nice views of IOA under construction from the CityWalk bridge outside the park. I shot this footage myself in November of 1997 with a JVC GR-DVM1 Mini DV Camcorder.
