VR T-Rex
I always wondered how a T-Rex would look in virtual reality, roaring right at you, like you’re in that scene outside the paddock in Jurassic Park. I started off by 3D modelling some assets that I could use to build the scene for an epic Tyrannosaurus encounter.
Environment
The poly count was kept low to allow for a jungle of instanced foliage, I used this flora to frame the camera view as it pans through the scene. I then created and rigged a low poly character holding a flare, trying to catch the dinosaur’s attention, with the animations set as simple seamless loops.
Atmosphere
Finally I added fog, rain, film grain, lighting and shadows to really add a sense of atmosphere.
I’m currently expanding this into a full VR experience, with sounds and navigation controls, allowing you to navigate around the 3D scene like you’re in the movie.
