Jurassic Park - Tyrannosaurus Rex At The Lagoon

Jurassic Park was a breathtaking film by Steven Spielberg; filled with spectacle, wonder, and imagination. Likewise, the novel and the adaptation process included many inventive ideas. This video presents one of the most famous ideas that didn't make it into the film: "Tyrannosaurus Rex At The Lagoon". Following closely to the tense sequence from the novel, the filmmakers also revised it with their own ideas, more than once. This version appears to be the last of the revisions, before it was scrapped entirely; along with the rest of the "river adventure" that was inspired and adapted into the classic Universal Studios attractions. This video uses the official original storyboards that were contained in Phil Tippett's Early Sequence Storyboard Binder, from his own collection. They have never been publicly seen before. This video was made to dramatize the sequence with original music by Derrick Davis and Mikhail Cucuk, inspired by the John Williams Jurassic...

Phil "I've Just Become Extinct" Tippett Is Jurassic World Bound.

Director of Jurassic World has tweeted the following photograph of Phil Tippett with the words "welcome back, Phil." So it seems the visual effects supervisor who worked with his go-motion effects is back in the dino world.  He of course is famous for saying "I've just become extinct" after seeing the CGI effects from ILM.  Later Spielberg used the line in the first Jurassic Park movie.  The director also kept Tippett on to supervise the animation of over 50 dinosaurs.  The work earned him an Oscar for his work. Here's the tweet. Welcome back, Phil. pic.twitter.com/pnGcKAlfN5 — Colin Trevorrow (@colintrevorrow) December 18, 2013 THE BEARDED TRIO ON FACEBOOK THE BEARDED TRIO ON TWITTER THE BEARDED TRIO ON GOOGLE+
