Disney's Dinosaur was Re: Dinosaur

[Office <dinosaur@interport.net>]

Disney's Dinosaur is scheduled for release in Summer of 1998.
It will be a "serious" film with no music: the dinosaurs will be
generated using a special form of CG software that was developed
in-house at Disney and they will be composited into live-action
background plates taken at real locations.

There is an on-going debate about whether or not the dinosaurs will
"speak" that goes back and forth. Last we heard, they won't speak, but
that could change.

We have an ongoing page on our website which will contain updates on the
progress of this film.

We are directly in touch with Disney's publicity office on the progress
of the film and anticipate that we will publish some art from the
production shortly.

Hope that helps.
