Crafting prehistoric realms for Netflix’s The Dinosaurs

Video on demand

Explore the digital creation of the ancient fauna, backed by a plethora of scientific research, in Netflix’s The Dinosaurs. The recently released documentary mini-series produced by Silverback Films (Our Planet), features a large variety of prehistoric creatures and set pieces across the four episodes. 

Join Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) artists Andreas Feix and Andrés Carreno as they break down a series of sequences to show how Katana and Nuke were instrumental in bringing the project to life, helping the artists to focus on the documentary filmmakers’ creative vision.
