General information
Status	Abandoned
Location	Northern California

The Lockwood Estate was the home of Benjamin and Maisie Lockwood in Northern California. It was here that Lockwood and John Hammond would extract their first DNA sample from Fossilised Amber paving the way for De-Extinction and Jurassic Park.

It would later become the headquarters of the Lockwood Foundation and be usurped by Eli Mills for his own agenda, including the creation of the Indoraptor and auctioning the surviving animals of the Isla Nublar Crisis to fund further research and development.

Production Notes

Pre-Production

In winter 2016, plate shots for the environment that would become the Lockwood Estate were taken at Cragside in Rothbury, UK. Whilst scouting the location, Clear Angle Studios scanned the entirety of the manor to use as a base for the CG model of the Lockwood Estate. Visual Effects Supervisor David Vickery and Director of Photography Oscar Faura captured establishing shots of the area using an Alexa Mini mounted to a drone.

"We spent two days shooting the manor from every angle," recalled Vickery. "We shot hours of footage, and then set up base in a pub, and re-encode all the Alexa Mini footage into Quicktimes so we could send them down to J.A. in London. Later, he called us, and said, 'This is amazing - You've got to do more!'"
