Escape Studios’ VFX tutor and immersive animation expert Dan Shutt has helped to create a new exhibition at the museum titled Science Fiction at the Science Museum.
In this “immersive genre-defying exhibition” guests embark on a “once in a lifetime adventure through the cosmos to explore visions of the future through the science of today”. The cosmos in question were created and animated by Dan Shutt – our in-house expert in the field of live animation and immersive motion graphics. The project was led by agency Creative Giants, working alongside VFX house Framestore.
