Dr Who Experience
Large-scale graphics
Open now at London's Olympia Two, the Doctor Who Experience is an unmissable adventure featuring an exhilarating and unique walk-through experience and an awe-inspiring exhibition.

The Doctor Who Experience invites you to step through a crack in time allowing you to join the Doctor on a journey through time and space, encountering some of the best-loved and scariest monsters from the hit international television series. Special scenes filmed with Matt Smith as the Doctor combine with amazing special effects and the chance to enter a recreation of the modern TARDIS.

The exhibition element of the Doctor Who Experience charts the success of the TV show from the first series in 1963 to the most recent episodes starring Matt Smith and Karen Gillan. Displays in the exhibition include items never seen before including original costumes, the Tom Baker TARDIS police box and two authentic TARDIS sets from the eras of David Tennant and Peter Davison. You will also be able to get up close and personal with iconic sets from recent series, including the Pandorica Box and Chair and confront numerous monsters including several generations of the Daleks and Cybermen as well as Silurians, an Ice Warrior and a Zygon.

Auk created large scale graphics for the experience, adding life to the exhibition. Some major graphics, such as the 12m 'Evolution of the Daleks' and the 25m 'Radiophonic Workshop' walls as well as the Sontaran's, Pig Slave and Scarecrow (all shown here) were created from scratch in Photoshop.

Other background graphics used low quality photographs of the original BBC sets, artworked and doctored to be of sufficient quality to print at large scale.
