Dinosaurs: The Final Day with David Attenborough
In collaboration with BBC Studios and Epic Games, MARS Volume transported Sir David Attenborough 66 million years ago to the day an asteroid devastated our planet for Dinosaurs: The Final Day with David Attenborough.
Through a blend of Epic Games’ Unreal Engine and physical prop and set design, Tanis’ prehistoric graveyard was recreated allowing Attenborough to interact real time with the virtual world before and after the final day of the dinosaurs.
We’ve gone far beyond the old days of the cinema, when you had green
screens
and after filming you were able to replace the screen electronically
to make you appear in any landscape you wished. When I walked into that
studio the images were all already there, the back end of the studio was a
forest on fire, and it was very, very impressive too.
