Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary Cretaceous–Paleogene boundary The Cretaceous–Paleogene (K–Pg) boundary, formerly known as the Cretaceous–Tertiary (K-T) boundary, is a geological signature, usually a thin band of rock. "K", the first letter of the German word "Kreide" (chalk), is the traditional abbreviation for the Cretaceous Period and "Pg" is the abbreviation for the Paleogene Period. The K–Pg boundary marks the end of the Cretaceous Period, the last period of the Mesozoic Era, and marks the beginning of the Paleogene Period, the first period of the Cenozoic Era. Its age is usually estimated at around 66 Ma (million years ago), with radiometric dating yielding a more
T-Rex: Back to the Cretaceous continued for two weeks on location in Dinosaur Provincial Park. Yet the filmmakers faced a challenge in finding a realistic environment to set the live-action filming portion for the Cretaceous period sequences when Ally finds herself wandering amidst the lush vegetation of 66 million years ago. The location used to film Cretaceous period scenes in the end was in the Olympia rain forest in upper Washington state. The special considerations that must be made when working with IMAX 3D presentation also made it crucial that the background features of the shooting locations were ideal. Besides shooting locations, extensive computer-generated imagery
