FAST FIVE: Corey Drake brings imagination to life

| November 15, 2025 1:00 AM

Meet Corey Drake, an artist and engineer who has worked in a wide range of mediums, from films like "Captain America and The Avengers," to video games such as Club Penguin, Disney Emoji Blitz and NBA2K, physical products like Jedi Challenges and escape rooms and even animatronics in Disneyland, Tokyo DisneySea and Shanghai Disneyland as an Imagineer. He also performs in local community theatre with Aspire and Lake City Playhouse and runs a YouTube channel aimed at teaching how to create custom 3D printed toys. 

In this Fast Five, he will share the paths he took to be involved in this type of work, tell some stories about working in theme park development (at least what won't get him in hot water with The Mouse) and offer insight to others hoping to find careers in creative roles.
