For this 2014 PBS series produced by Oregon Public Broadcasting, 3D animation represented the ideal medium to recreate artifacts and structures of a 1500-year-old Basketmaker III village in Colorado. Consulting directly with archaeologists via Skype we modeled and surfaced the interiors and exteriors of a pit house and kiva, the exterior of the entire village, and multiple artifacts derived from archaeological fragments unearthed by the team. This was a challenging, but rewarding, project.
