Sony - FUTURE PROOF : Sony Presents DinoScience
Calm music plays. A computer graphic video shows rounded red rock cliffs topped with green trees around a canyon. A winged and feathered dinosaur flies from behind and out over the canyon, followed by a second. Subtitles appear as a man interviews in Japanese.
ON SCREEN TEXT: I don’t think of it as an exhibition,
ON SCREEN TEXT: I think of it more like I’m telling a story.
A young Japanese couple stand together watching an enormous screen where a flock of feathered two-legged dinosaurs sprints toward trees. A little girl blinks at the screen as wind blows at her from Sony’s Crystal LED display and haptic technology that brings the prehistoric experience to the viewer. The full skeletons of a triceratops and a tyrannosaurus rex appear to face off against each other.

The Dinosaurs of Laramidia
2021 @ YOKOHAMA
A complete tyrannosaurus skeleton stands on a platform mid-roar in a timelapse as people look at the exhibits around it. A boy in a striped t-shirt cheers as a life-sized t-rex silhouette walks across the light walls.
ON SCREEN TEXT: The most important thing was to depict the dinosaurs as real living animals
People are silhouetted against the enormous screen. A flock of the feathered two-legged dinosaurs sprint past trees, kicking up dust in their wake. A t-rex roars at a triceratops in a forest and the triceratops bellows back. Now the man continues his interview.

ON SCREEN TEXT: using the most advanced technology.
The crowd of people stand spaced apart, watching the screen as a triceratops roars.
ON SCREEN TEXT: I hope this exhibition will help broaden people’s horizons.
A little girl holds her face as she tilts her head upward and laughs. She holds a dinosaur figurine in one hand. A crowd of people stand watching the screen. A wind blows their hair. A young woman looks up at the screen with an awestruck expression as her hair blows around her. A couple watches the screen where a large triceratops stands in a forest with a small baby triceratops. Logos appear.
