Animation - Study - Jurassic Park

I have decided to study the animation techniques used in the 1993 film Jurassic Park, i remember this as being one of the first films i can remember as a child and it will be interesting to see how it was made and the illusion of the realistic creatures created at the time. This film has been landmarked as the first film with photorealistic creatures, which particularly shows in the scene with the way the dinosaurs move and how their muscles work. Shown in this video.



Knowing how much time and effort it took to create these photorealistic dinosaurs (especially at the time it was made 1993) i dont know if ill ever be able to match the level of quality the creators of Jurassic Park achieved but if i get anywhere near ill be happy. With that in mind i think i will stick to solid objects when it comes to creating my animation in Maya as things with muscles and too many moving parts have been flagged as a no go by Matt who is pretty much an expert in Maya.
