Circle-Vision 360°

Circle-Vision 360° is a film format developed by The Walt Disney Company that uses projection screens which encircle the audience.

[2][4] At least one reason for the renaming from Circarama was objections by the owners of Cinerama to the similarity between the two names.

The cameras and projection systems for both Circarama and Circle-Vision 360° were designed by longtime Disney animator and visual effects pioneer Ub Iwerks.

[4][5] A Tour of the West and the original 1958 version of America the Beautiful were shot in Circarama.

Years in parentheses after a film title indicate the versions of the movie shown at the theater.
