We’re proud that AMC will forever be known as the birthplace and home of this iconic show and, at the same time, we tip our Heisenberg hat to the fans who made this a truly shared experience.”

‘Walking with Dinosaurs’ App Allows You to Pose with Dinosaurs

My Corgi, Sookie, is used to having a camera aimed her direction and she’s even gotten used to being the guinea pig for new apps (check out her pose with Gollum here or what happened when I used the Walking Dead zombie app on her). And when 20th Century Fox and BBC Worldwide sent out info on their new Walking with Dinosaurs app, it was only a matter of seconds before I’d snapped a photo of her next to a dinosaur.

Getting the dinosaur to go where you want it to in a photo does take a little bit of finesse. However, a few minutes of practice time is all it should take to get the hang of it.

The Walking with Dinosaurs: Photo Adventure app works with iPhones, iPads, iPod Touch, and Android devices and is free to download from iTunes and Google Play. The Photo Adventure allows users to insert a dinosaur from the film in photos in “lifelike detail” using the technology employed in the movie.

Walking with Dinosaurs: Photo Adventure brilliantly uses augmented reality to bring the big screen stars of Walking with Dinosaurs bursting into your world thanks to a fun and creative app that allows you to come face to face with a gigantic Gorgosaurus and share the moment with your friends,” stated Paul Joffe, VP Digital Entertainment & Games, BBC Worldwide.

– Astonishing lifelike augmented reality dinosaurs added to any real-world location.
– Easy to use camera features allow placing and posing virtual dinosaurs in the camera view, with options to adjust lighting and add colour to the dinosaurs.

– Meet the stars of Walking with Dinosaurs, including our hero-in-waiting Patchi, his tough brother Scowler, sweet Juniper, and a terrifying Gorgosaurus villain.
