The attraction is a prime example of both real time animation and digital puppetry. Stitch Encounter consists of an unscripted, real-time conversation between guests and the animated character Stitch, Experiment 626 from Disney's Lilo & Stitch movies and the TV series. In Hong Kong Disneyland, it is located adjacent to Space Mountain. The attraction offers three different languages (Cantonese, Mandarin and English), to accommodate the variety of languages guests of Hong Kong Disneyland to speak.
The attraction is similar to Turtle Talk with Crush in Epcot at the Walt Disney World Resort, Disney California Adventure at Disneyland Resort and in Tokyo DisneySea at Tokyo Disney Resort as well as the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor in Magic Kingdom.
Attraction description
Guests are seated in a movie theater-like room, The "Space Traffic Control" room, and children are encouraged to sit up front on the floor, so that Stitch can see them during the show.
When the host of "Space Traffic Control" requests the computer to search for an available spacecraft captain to talk to, the computer connects to Stitch's spacecraft. After that, guests (both children and adult) in the "Space Traffic Control" room are chosen to chat with Stitch. Stitch can both interact with guests and take their pictures.
A hidden cast member supplies Stitch's voice and controls his animation, allowing the character to talk and interact with the guests. The "animated" character looks and moves like he does in the movie, complete with corresponding facial expressions and gestures.
The conclusion of the show occurs when the audience aids Stitch in his escape from Captain Gantu.
