Rare Footage Of Steven Spielberg Directing Jurassic Park

by Jill Pantozzi | 6:00 pm, April 14th, 2012


If you’re as big a fanatic about Jurassic Park as we are at The Mary Sue, prepare to totally geek out. This is nearly eight minutes of director Steven Spielberg working on the set of the film. The video says it came from a press kit that was sent out prior to the release of the movie in 1993 and is the type of footage rarely released, especially these days. SlashFilm writes, “Most of the footage is taken outside of the Jurassic Park Visitor’s Center and the first moments when the characters arrive on the island.” And the kids, oh my god, the kids! My heart just grew ten sizes. Enjoy!

    Thank you for sharing this. I love  Jurassic Park but I think anyone would like this. I most enjoyed seeing the children directed and just seeing the working behind it all. I also have even more respect for Spielberg now.

    I love how much the Mary Sue loves Jurassic Park, and dinosaurs in general.
