Masters of Movie Magic
Your favorite Jurassic Park dinosaurs didn't just stomp into the scene; they were brought to life through the wizardry of CGI and animatronics. The original film, along with its sequel The Lost World, set a new standard for special effects. Pioneers like Stan Winston, responsible for the animatronic dinosaurs, and Phil Tippett, the go-to guy for stop-motion, made you believe these creatures could be part of our world. Meanwhile, Dennis Muren of Universal Studios spearheaded the CGI revolution, showing just how much screen time these digital dinos could handle without you blinking an eye.

Remember the moment when Dr. Ian Malcolm, played by the charismatic Jeff Goldblum, had his close encounter? That's a combined effort of practical effects and spine-chilling sound.
Roars, Squeals, and Rumbles
What's a Velociraptor without its chilling shriek or a T-Rex without its bone-rattling roar? The sound designers behind Jurassic Park were the true conductors of chaos. They recorded animal noises from every corner of the kingdom to create a symphony of prehistoric vocals. The sound design so masterfully mixed at Skywalker Ranch didn't just scare the living daylights out of Dr. Ellie Sattler; it won an Academy Award for its aural artistry.
