Ramses & Nefertari: Journey to Osiris
Installation
Information
Ramses & Nefertari: Journey to Osiris is an immersive cinematic film exploring the life and legacy of Ramses the Great led by his wife Nefertari. The experience takes audiences through two of Ramses most impressive monuments, Abu Simbel and Nefertari's Tomb, as it tells the story of his life complete with exciting animations and mesmerizing visual effects. Using the Positron Motion Chair complete with scents and haptic feedback, audiences are fully immersed in this exhilarating story.
The experience is part of the touring museum exhibition Ramses the Great and has achieved a 40% capture rate selling $800,000 tickets in its first six months.
To create the experience, our team had to use ingenuity and innovation to capture the sites. Using cranes at Abu Simbel and custom lights for Nefertari's Tomb, we were able to capture them in stunning detail. Our team built the film on top of these captures using animated characters, visual effects, custom scents, and a show-stopping soundtrack. The end result is engaging, educational, and a whole lot of fun.
