The Complete Build Of An Animatronic Apatosaurus for Jurassic World

I loved dinosaurs as a kid, but I have to admit that I don’t know what an Apatosaurus is. Oh well, google’s always there to help.

Regardless of what you thought of the movie Jurassic World, you have to admit that some of those animatronics were stunning. Here’s an in-depth look at the scene with the sick Apatosaurus.

 

you get some great glimpses of other dinos too, but the video really focuses on the construction of the sick dino. What is especially fun here is that halfway through the refining sculpt they had to change scale, so they 3d scanned the machined+sculpted head and then machined it bigger and continued! Its like an infiniti mirror of digital/analog design.
