How We Made Dinosaurs Real | Behind the Scenes | The Dinosaurs

How do you bring a dinosaur back to life - when no human has ever seen one? For The Dinosaurs, our team worked with scientists, paleoartists and the world-leading visual effects artists at Industrial Light & Magic to create some of the most realistic dinosaurs ever seen on screen. In this exclusive behind-the-scenes look, we go inside ILM to reveal the extraordinary process behind creating Heterodontosaurus - a small but charismatic dinosaur with a big personality. From scientific research and digital sculpting to rigging, movement, plumage and cheek pouches, every detail was carefully shaped by the latest understanding of dinosaur anatomy and behaviour. With guidance from experts around the world and paleoartist Mark Witton, the team explored how Heterodontosaurus may have looked, moved and behaved - before translating that science into a living, breathing digital creature. After months of collaboration, feedback and refinement, the result was one of the most scientifically accurate Heterodontosaurus ever created for screen. From Silverback Films and executive producer Steven Spielberg, in association with Amblin Entertainment, this groundbreaking documentary series follows the rise and fall of the dinosaurs across hundreds of millions of years. Narrated by Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman.
