SteveJ Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 Has this been posted yet? Thorpe Park approached Derren to do this and are using his name as the IP rather than it being one of Derren's projects. It makes me think the ride will be a vehicle for his usual show material but in the form of an attraction. "They got in touch three years ago to ask if I'd like to do something for them. It was total carte blanche, which was of course phenomenal to be asked. It's been three years of writing and creating this thing with a group of people that are just big kids. It's lovely, everyone's purely about the ultimate experience for the patrons which, for me, is totally my world. It's their biggest investment to date, which is hilarious because it's just me sat in my front room shouting ‘Let's do this!'. It's not like a rollercoaster, it's an attraction, the first of it's kind in the world, they're not saying anything about it at the moment but apparently it's going to be the future of theme park attractions." http://www.whatsonstage.com/london-theatre/news/derren-brown-miracle-interview_39108.html?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=09nov2015 "Apparently it's going to be the future of theme park attractions." Derren sure knows his theme park attractions. pluk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HermanTheGerman Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 Wow, if the ride ends up looking anything like the photos on /bellows then they might as well just admit that they're out to give everyone a severe case of depression. It actually looks alarmingly similar to that Dismayland parody we saw a few months ago which is funny... Sad. SteveJ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glitch Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 My only question is if set in the past........why is there graffiti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pognoi Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Graffiti existed in the past too, they just used different methods to do it. After all, we know so much about a lot of early human culture through what is essentially graffiti done by aboriginals...

Altitude Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Its actually looks alarmingly similar to that Dismayland parody we saw a few months ago which is funny... Not disagreeing for the sake of arguing, but how is it similar to Dismaland other than that it looks dirty/abandoned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Not disagreeing for the sake of arguing, but how is it similar to Dismaland other than that it looks dirty/abandoned? It's got a really pretentious name behind it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaster Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 This is only speculation, but is there any possibility that this could be a description of WC16? CG Supervisor - Dark Ride We're looking for a creative, talented CG Supervisor to join our team. If you are the right one for us, you are passionate about storytelling, love creating photorealistic CG images, and have a desire to be technically challenged producing CG using completely new and dynamic approaches. You are interested in being intimately involved in the creation of a story from initial concepts and storyboards, through to transforming the creative into an awesome 100% CG dark ride experience. The Dark Ride project will be using cutting edge ride technology to create a completely believable feeling that our CG characters and scenes are actually real. It uses many huge screens set around a massive sound-stage full of practical sets that the ride vehicles crashes through during the adventure. The clever use of stereo and perspective warping makes the riders genuinely not know where the physical set ends and the CG begins. The end result is ride that leaves people floored, and they keep coming back for decades to ride it again and again. These are the most extreme entertainment experiences on the planet. We will be creating CG scenes set in a wide range of very dynamic environments, with many highly detailed and exquisitely animated characters. A custom score and soundtrack with be created to sync up to our work, as well as many live special effects such as water, fire, smoke, moving vehicles. It's going to be cool.

Working closely with the 2D team throughout the project, with a focus on creating the highest quality images in the most efficient way possible, taking into account the creative, budget and time considerations of the project. Troubleshooting issues when they arise, working with the producers and supervisors to deliver the project on time and with high quality CG. Managing and mentoring CG artists performance, working closely with the Producer and crew manager.

L7123456 Posted November 29, 2015 Report Share Posted November 29, 2015 This is only speculation, but is there any possibility that this could be a description of WC16? https://www.creativeheads.net/job/15049/cg-supervisor---dark-ride-in-london I think that the information given about the ride and the fact it's in London means that this is most probably going to be what Whitechapel is. Also the fact it says it uses a massive sound stage. The first building put up had a large tunnel looking structure which would be fully immersive will screens and sounds. Could this be what they are referencing to? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
