in the National Geographic photo
engineering lab a dinosaur comes to life
shaped from an aluminum cast and
equipped with a pressure driven mandible
this skull scaled down by 1/3 was built
to depict the new science of dinosaurs
in a dramatic style the discovery of
bone fragments in the fossilized feces
of a Tyrannosaurus Rex suggests the king
of dinosaurs actually ingested the crush
bones of its prey this t-rex was built
in order to demonstrate that theory
ostrich bones will be this models
modern-day Neal as the cameras attempt
to capture the bite force of t-rex when
it’s time to take the picture art
director Chris gnome and photo editor
Kirk Nesler enlist photographer Rob
Clark
Kurt Marshall and Chris loner in the
same car pool so I know they just think
these things up as they drive home you
know and like let’s see if you can do
that
technically what we’re trying to do is
capture the bone exploding in the mouth
of this guy they use several cameras
along with laser triggered strobe lights
an additional Polaroid camera will let
them know immediately if it’s all
working
[Music]
we’re going to seconds at f/16 on
everything guys laser triggers on the
job that Josh shuts the bone explodes a
stroke a lot one two three
it’ll take a few bones to get it right I
think it doesn’t work everything works
except for the bomb at one point it all
becomes very technical you do the pop
pop pop but you do it when it hits here
and then when the vault bones coming
down you would get the pop pop pop
because then it’s in pieces as it goes
up it’s not in pieces so let’s fashion
the bone on the top that goes Kabam
splinters then cut tuck as it goes down
on a project like this it’s all about
trial and error lights 1,001 1,002 go
those left paw and with the push of a
button we have a photographic look at a
t-rex in action
