Time Travel Immersive Environment

This scene, fundamentally designed as a waiting area, was conceptually developed to help visitors think that they are about to be sent back to the time of the dinosaurs’ extinction, passing key stages in history along the way. My aim was to create a futuristic, industrial setting, which would be moodily lit and pensive in character, to allow people’s apprehension to build prior to the experience. The detailed design included a series of molded portals, the end of which houses a Fog Screen system, which in turn creates a back projected curtain of vapor for visitors to walk through. This represents the start of the trip back in time. In addition to the visual aspects of the corridor, there are background noises, alternating lights and authoritative announcements to set the mood.
