The fact that this thing "came to life" and was a physical thing is much more impressive than the CGI equivalent. It's much easier to appreciate the tremendous weight.

[@RDub2]

Jurassic Park is the reason I went to film school. These videos are incredible.

[@RetroCarsForever]

I love how fast the T-rex's head moves when Tim shuts the Explorer door. Such a big massive head, flying down to face him, and stopping ON A DIME. Terrifyingly real, and a real treat to see again in theaters!

[@ivjdivfjalekvvjp]

Kicks the crap out of CGI.

[@ImTheSlicedApple]

ivjdivfjalekvvjp you can say that again, CGI to me looks to Crisp and clean, CGI has some weird effect to it which will never make it look realistic

With no legs.

Stan thanks for having faith in me I'm forever grateful I I got the opportunity to work on such technical project as your lead welder RIP sir

[@TheDelta016]

one bit i liked was when lex shines the light in the T-rexes eye and the pupil gets smaller that was sooo realistic and a nice touch :)

[@StanWinstonSchool]

aigg, Yes! We've got TONS of great footage of the making of the dinosaurs from THE LOST WORLD: JURASSIC PARK. Stay tuned! -Matt

[@wagglepuff12]

Seriously SW school - You guys need to find as much of this as you can and cut together a couple films. I definitely appreciate it being able to see this for free - if you put this on discs I will buy them and it would sell like gangbusters. Much respect!

[@armandogonzales1365]

This was before cgi was in full effect when real people designed ,built and made creatures come alive very intelligent group of folks that Stan put together to make movie magic 🎩 hope some day we can do it again Sincerely Grande Gonzalez

[@feryache]

It's just utterly incredible to watch this videos!!!! thanks so much for posting them. Where are all this huge animatronic dinos nowdays???

[@swannee046]

Watching Jurassic Park in 3D, made it so much better. I felt like a kid again watching it for the first time.

[@jakehobbs]

These guys should be paid more than government officials!!!!

[@nrs10001]

Saw it in 3D last night and its now all i could think about today at school

[@Sovvolf]

Good ol'animatronics the way it should be done. I'm a Cgi I fellow, Enjoy creating 3D models and do appreciate the art in it. However, I've always maintained that, when creating a monster for a movie, or anything for that matter, it should be primarily animatronics and puppetry, keep it as live action as possible. You just get this weight and awe with it that you miss with CG, not to mention it ages well. CG should be used to enhance and help get shots not possible or extremely difficult to get.

[@lappe767]

Awesome as always! This is the behind the scenes stuff I've been waiting for! Thanks for sharing.

[@GoldenWatchPDKMN]

You guys are real artists! Great video!

[@delb0y1967]

fantastic job guys, impressive to say the least !

[@TheShadowedOne1]

That was a long time ago however, but I hope what he said still stands.

The sculpture was the original for the molds that were used to make the T-Rex skins. - David

[@JohnSmith-fz6wr]

You should produce a documentary about the JP films that focuses solely on the animatronic dinosaurs/other special effects handled by your team (and possibly the others).

[@StanWinstonSchool]

Rudraksh Shukla, we're all huge fans. But I'm afraid there's very little left from the set. - David

[@gabrielherrera8661]

Nice I really like it

[@StanWinstonSchool]

Yes, eventually. - David

[@StanWinstonSchool]

Bit by bit, maudale, bit by bit. - David

[@bertoche]

DARPA should make these as ground fighter vehicles for the US Military.

[@StanWinstonSchool]

I dunno about Universal Studios, turtlelover789. Theme park animatronics have to withstand a lot more wear and tear than movie animatronics. But hey, if you like turtles, check out SWSCA instructor Rick Lazzarini's turtle. Just go to his web side at The Character Shop and type budtort dot htm. - David

[@TheShadowedOne1]

It's pretty much official that if you guys don't come back to work on Jurassic Park IV, then the movie will utterly fail. I hope Legacy Effects is already working on it...

[@maudale]

how so they take the mold from suh a large sculpture??????

[@laurenmanning2303]

oh thanks :)

[@JoshiWoshi22]

what materials do you need

[@rudrakshshukla2358]

hey can i get something from the set im a huge fan

[@yagogbi2]

Hey! place making of the puppy t-rex everybody wants see. is an animatronic wireless and interesting, the people who is a fan, we will see the construction of it. eternally fan of stan winston

[@yagogbi2]

Please

[@sammylollollol]

How come you couldn't make the trex walk? But instead stay on a base

[@equarg]

Starmation Productions Yea......they can barely make kids toy walk....much less human sized robots walk in 2018. Don't think they could make a walking T-Rex in the early 90's. You have problems with weight, mobility, safety, and lack of technology. What they did for Rexy was AMAZING back then. Still is impressive.

[@laurenmanning2303]

What is CGI?

[@darrensalazar4452]

CGI stands for "computer generated image"

[@JoshuaModerwell]

I wish the animatronic Tyrannosaurus Rex that was built for the Jurassic Park ride at Universal Studios in Hollywood, California and Orlando, Florida had been built to look and move exactly just like the more realistic animatronic Tyrannosaurus Rex that was built for the first film. Steven Spielberg, Stan Winston and the people who worked for Stan Winston Studios should've either provided the more realistic animatronic Tyrannosaurus Rex for the ride OR shared a printed concept art sheet and a maquette model of how the Tyrannosaurus Rex had appeared of the first film with the engineers who worked for Universal Studios to have the ride's animatronic Tyrannosaurus Rex built to look and move exactly just like the more realistic animatronic Tyrannosaurus Rex that was built for the first film. media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/5736/8632894_1.jpg media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/5736/8632839_1.jpg media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/5736/8632839_2.jpg media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/5736/8632839_3.jpg media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/5736/8632839_4.jpg

[@armandogonzales1365]

I am truly proud of what the crew and I produced it was a once of a lifetime project to work on with such talented people Stan the man was such a gracious man to all of us we built this from raw materials and made it come to life for all to enjoy for years to come Talented people entertain the public Armando"Grande"Gonzalez Local 44 Cert.Welder 35 Exp.
