Putnam Museum - GIANT Screen Movie Theater
T.Rex 3D
Working with top tyrannosaur scientists, a coalition of natural history institutions, and pioneering paleo and visual effects artists, GSF’s original giant screen production on this iconic dinosaur — and its carnivorous Cretaceous cousins — aims to be the most dazzling and accurate T. rex documentary ever made.
With hat tips to famous specimens, landmark discoveries, and wild cinematic depictions over the last century, the film explores the interplay between speculation and evidence, and reveals how the process of science refreshes and reimagines our understanding of this legendary dinosaur.
