Pleistocene Rancho La Brea Interactive

This is my final for my Vector class; an interactive illustration! Enjoy!!

The whole thing was inspired by Charles R. Knight's paintings, particularly this one. The Smilodon's pose I ripped from his very famous Smilodon painting as an homage to him. God, that man was awesome!

Anyways! Every animal in this piece has been found in the La Brea tar pits. We've got some dire wolves, a Smilodon, a teratorn, a pair of ground sloths, and some columbian mammoths in the background.
My sister coached me on the animation for the Smilodon and the ground sloth that stands up. She also did the flies for me. Thanks sis!
My instructor also helped me with the tricky things, like making the clouds loop seamlessly, the clickability of the carcass, and moving the teratorn around.


This was SO much fun to do, and I can't wait to make another one!
