Research-Movie Scene Selection

My Chosen Scene Selection is from Jurassic Park 3 (Ingen Abandoned Genetics Laboratory)
A Selection of work from Rick Bulm, Creative Art Director for the Jurassic Parks. These are the best images of reference to proceed in creating true to the film replication in my Laboratory Environment. Obviously difference would be the texture, mould and rust etc.


Scene 1: References from the Film, The largest image above will be my actual beauty shot that i  will take at the end to compare. The lighting is going to be a Big Challenge. The outside lighting is my only source of light indoors. On top of this I will have to create a spacial environment outside to because of its exposure through open roofs, broken windows and doors.


Scene 2: References again from the film but actually in the genetic area of the laboratory, home to the creation of the dinosaurs. This will be the main enticing area that player will be able to navigate, interact with props etc. Again another challenging demand for lighting, if unsuccessful the frame rate in game could drop drastically, lighting will need to be sufficient that it can pick up the details of all the props. 


3 key games that will deeply influence the final outcome of this project. Gears of war will play a big role into the artistic direction of the lab scene. Gears of war is full of Grungy war torn destroyed, aged environments and this will apply heavily to my own textures.
Turok is a good example of the game play I want to achieve. It has nothing to with the fact it has a similar objective of surviving from dinosaur attacks. But they have a created a first person shooter with a great function of manoeuvrability to dodge, move quickly and excute the your enemy. FPS perspective is certainly the best decision for the player, fans like my self will be keen to explore environments just like this, look at all the eye candy props, and maybe even interact with them, Jurassic Park has a great sense of exploration, its taking you to a world that existed over 65 million years ago. I want to try and create a very tiny part of this world and give credit to where credit is due.
