La Película (2016) Proyecto de Innovación Docente Interacción Persona-Ordenador 3º Grado en Ingeniería Informática 2017 Universidad de Salamanca La película (2016) Jurassic World Análisis realizado por: David Pérez Montes Datos de producción Director: Colin Trevorrow Guionista: Rick Jaffa, Amanda Silver, Derek Connolly y C. Trevorrow, Michael Crichton. Duración: 124 minutos Tipo: Película Ficha en IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0369610/ Sinopsis [Breve descripción de la historia que se cuenta] Veintidós años después de lo ocurrido en Jurassic Park, la isla Nublar ha sido transformada en un enorme parque temático, Jurasicc World, con versiones de algunos de los dinosaurios que conocemos, pacíficos, domesticados. Cuando todo parece ir bien, y convertirse en el negocio del siglo, un nuevo dinosaurio de especie desconocida, el Indominus Rex , va a mostrarse al público, una hembra, creada manipulando genéticamente su ADN, y convirtiéndose en un ser mucho más inteligente de lo que pensaron, se escapa de su recinto, arranca literalmente su geolocalizador y comienza a causar destrucción entre los visitantes y el resto de los dinosaurios que habitan el Parque. Necesidades [Análisis de las necesidades de usuario que propician la propuesta de las interfaces] En esta ocasión la intención ha sido de no innovar y reutilizar lo que funcionó y bastante bien en anteriores películas, queda aquí demostrado, por la más espectacular muestra y despliegue que la tecnología digital es capaz de ofrecer. De igual modo los efectos visuales son sorprendentes y son fruto de una tecnología impecable y podría decirse más que sofisticada, en relación a la forma de mostrar y presentarnos a los dinosaurios. 2 Primera Necesidades aparición Laboratorio y pantallas táctiles 0:07:00 En el laboratorio destacan los ordenadores táctiles, el acceso a él, a través de huella dactilar, algún holograma, incubadoras retenedoras así como los brazos mecanizados, robotizados para manipular los embriones (huevos) en diferentes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6X2q7oPZTQ fases y de diferentes especies, los cuales se han podido recrear en la película ,de la prehistoria a la actualidad por el mecanismo de clonación múltiple, lo que ha dado lugar a un dinosaurio que nada tendría que ver si se hubiera respetado los genomas y no lo hubieran rellenado. Tanto las puertas que abren y cierran el laboratorio como el sistema de crionizacion de los embriones, se controlan a través de sensores informatizados. 3 Primera Necesidades aparición Hologramas Centro de innovación, hologramas con plasmas y hologramas interactivos, 0:09:00 atrayentes tanto para los visitantes adultos como igual de atractivo para los niños. A la vez se visiona pulseras de control, frente a móviles normales, multitud de ordenadores con pantalla táctil y audio control, incluso por huella digital. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1EBhVGG8Eg 4 Primera Necesidades aparición En el centro de control de Centro de control 0:11:10 todo el parque, totalmente informatizado y, presentado a modo de semicircunferencia, cada uno en su posición con su ordenador personal, presidido con una gran pantalla de plasma que controla visualmente todo, pero en el fondo dominada por un sistema sofisticado, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1jeYZmRhoA pero a la vez sencillo e informático. 5 Primera Necesidades aparición El sistema de escaleras 0:32:09 eléctricas, el ascensor o Gradas a modo de ascensor montacargas que posibilita la bajada de las gradas en el acuario del Mosasaurius, para poder verlo sumergido en la piscina, a modo de submarino, tal dispositivo no es actual, es innovador. Destacar el uso de los https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6AKOTqDJeA móviles y buscas que utiliza el personal para comunicarse, son los de nuestros días, también es una manera de situarse en el presente, aunque hemos traído con las nuevas tecnologías el pasado convertido en futuro. 6 Primera Necesidades aparición El implante geolocalizador Implante geolocalizador 0:45:42 (existente en la actualidad), que colocan al nuevo dinosaurio creado por clonación, un hibrido capaz de arrancárselo. Ello demuestra que el avance que se produce en la mutación genética es mucho más avanzado que el sistema tecnológico del localizador, que, a pesar de ser tan avanzado, y sofisticado, falla como en el https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2HDlr44qeHY control tecnológico informatizado de creación y control total del parque. 7 Primera Necesidades aparición 0:49:40 A su vez medios de Vehículo “bola de hámster” transportes actuales como moto y coche de los protagonistas frente a las futuristas giroesferas, llamadas en la película “bola de hámster”, muy atractivos y que aportan protagonismo en los más jóvenes de la película que inician por si solos una aventura adentrándose en https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FIoFzJkEuk zonas prohibidas y sin hacer caso omiso a las alertas (Indominus rex suelto). Otro medio de transporte que aparece es el monorraíl, en el que los visitantes recorren el recinto viendo la gran variedad de especies de dinosaurios. Los visitantes pueden desplazarse a su vez por actuales todoterrenos habilitados como si de un safari actual se tratara e incluso por el agua con canoas. 8 Primera Necesidades aparición Llama la atención, el sistema de retención y Dispositivos de control por 1:25:50 adiestramiento que utiliza infrarrojos y seguimiento de lo que el protagonista para los ve el animal. raptores, un pequeño aparato, que con su sonido llama su atención frente al novedoso sistema de retención informatizado y los dispositivos de control por infrarrojos que colocan en su cabeza para su geolocalización. Destacar los dispositivos que llevan de revisión https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5ho6ht3EK4 física (salud) de los raptores, controladas por un sistema informático de códigos. 9 Tecnologías involucradas La mayoría de los objetos cotidianos que salen en la película son los mismos que usamos actualmente (los Smartphone que usan, coches, ropa…). Pero a su vez integran elementos novedosos, como los hologramas de los dinosaurios y otras que hoy día podrían llegar a realizarse como las gradas que suben y bajan como un ascensor. Tecnologías disponibles en el momento de la producción Jurassic World ha dado un cambio radical en eso de las tecnologías. Hemos pasado de ruedas (dejando a un lado los vehículos), a un monorraíl y a las giroesferas (bolas de hámster). Las grúas, jaulas de contención de los raptores, los ordenadores, móviles, buscas, escaleras mecánicas, ascensores, montacargas existían en el momento, pero bien utilizados han dado lugar a podríamos decir impresionantes grandes efectos especiales. No se ha usado apenas la animatrónica, está claro que hay demasiado CGI, hasta lo más básico está hecho por ordenador, como el arco de entrada al parque que no se ve real. Para crear las imágenes de la atracción del parque de los pequeños dinosauros se han usado gallinas con captura de movimientos para que los actores tengan una referencia visual para recrear a los gallimimus. De igual forma, los niños montan a cerdos para recrear a las crías de triceratops. Tecnologías imaginadas en el momento de la producción Tecnologías imaginadas, no reales son los Hologramas, ordenadores con pantallas invisibles, control auditivo y táctil para accesos a laboratorio, centro de control, giroesferas…Posibles en un futuro próximo pero que hoy no es viable, y menos ordinariamente, a pie de calle…Es cierto que conviven con la tecnología actual integrándose, pero haciendo patente que la actual parece quedarse encasillada. 10 Impacto [Se indica si la propuesta creativa ha tenido un impacto real en la creación de nuevos dispositivos, impulso de nuevas tecnologías o el propio diseño de interfaces de usuario] El impacto sigue siendo increíble, aún tenemos capacidad de sorprendernos más si cabe que en las otras tres partes anteriores de la saga, cada una en su momento igual de impactantes tanto sociocultural como la recaudación económica que supuso. Partiendo del mensaje de John Hammond, el creador fictício de Jurássic Park, cuyo deseo era “recrear los dinosaurios en este parque sin reparar en costes. El parque existe para recordarnos lo diminutos que somos, y el peligro que conlleva el jugar con la clonación, naturaleza…”. A través de la película se ve la posibilidad de poder crear bestias, programarlas sin que puedan hackearse, en lugar de miles de soldados o drones. Es impactante la tecnología futurista que aparece desde los hologramas al principio de, los controles de ordenador de pantalla táctil, por control auditivo, la apertura y cierre de puertas del laboratorio y centro de control de todo el parque a través de control dactilar. Los nuevos medios de transporte como el monorraíl y la giroesfera, y a su vez vehículos todoterreno, coches actuales y motos. Referencias 1.

  • Kong: Skull Island Announced
    News release February 2017 MADAME TUSSAUDS LONDON GOES APE OVER KONG: SKULL ISLAND DELIVERY Iconic attractions in London and New York get set to welcome Kong: Skull Island experience 21st February 2017. Today, Madame Tussauds London signed for a monstrous delivery that is set to be a roaring success at the iconic attraction, with the arrival of a larger than life Kong: Skull Island experience. In partnership with Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures, Madame Tussauds London and Madame Tussauds New York will bring the experience to life with an eight-foot, multi-sensory animatronic head of the gigantic ape that will wow and terrify visitors in equal measure. Guests can expect to embark on an adventure deep into the tropical environment of the infamous Skull Island, where they will be challenged to evade the traps of colossal petrifying spiders and uncover artifacts from the film. As they journey through the secluded bamboo jungle, they will be joined by a new wax figure of Captain James Conrad, played by British actor Tom Hiddleston in the upcoming film, before coming face to face with the enormous breathing, blinking, snarling and roaring mystical monster himself. The enormous animatronic Kong head, made from 64 square metres of specialist faux hair, took 72 days to build and create by 33 team members. Each movement of the head uses state of the art pneumatic controls which was designed specifically for Kong. The system precisely controls the pressure and flow of air to recreate life like facial movements, grunts, snorts and roars made by the ferocious beast.

Il suo figlio più piccolo Peter (Jacob Tremblay) è uno spensierato ragazzino di 8 anni. A prendersi cura di tutto e tutti nel suo modo originale e unico è il figlio maggiore di Susan, Henry, di anni 11. Tutore di suo fratello minore che lo idolatra e instancabile sostegno per 2 sua madre spesso insicura – e, attraverso degli investimenti, della famiglia tutta – Henry sfavilla attraverso i giorni come una cometa. Susan scopre che la famiglia di vicini, quella della gentile compagna di classe di Henry, Christina (Maddie Ziegler), ha un pericoloso segreto – e che Henry ha escogitato un sorprendente piano per aiutarla. Mentre il suo geniale piano di salvataggio per Christina prende forma in modi elettrizzanti, Susan si ritrova al suo centro.
