Scene 1: Pyramids of Giza (Demo)

The environment

The Giza Pyramids, located on the outskirts of modern-day Cairo, Egypt, were constructed over 4,500 years ago and remain one of the most iconic architectural wonders of the ancient world. The environment surrounding the pyramids is a vast desert landscape, with the occasional rocky outcropping and clusters of scrubby vegetation. The terrain is relatively flat, but there are several small hills and undulations in the landscape.

Required environment development:

  1. Pyramid models - for each of the three pyramids (Khufu, Khafre, and Menkaure)
  2. Sphinx model - the Great Sphinx of Giza is another iconic feature of the Giza Plateau.
  3. Terrain models - the terrain of the Giza Plateau would require several assets, including desert sands, rocky outcroppings, and sparse vegetation.
  4. Egyptian architecture - the ancient Egyptians built a variety of structures around the pyramids, including tombs, temples, and smaller pyramids.
  5. Camels and other animals - camels are commonly associated with the deserts of Egypt. Other animals that could be included might be desert foxes, lizards, or birds.

The atmosphere of the scene represents a hot and heavy afternoon. Hard shadows and highlights with sandy, dusty air.

The scene

Note

It is important to note that the depiction of slaves building the pyramids is a common misconception. While there is evidence of forced labor during the construction of the pyramids, the actual labor force was likely made up of skilled workers and paid laborers rather than slaves. It is also worth noting that the construction of the pyramids was a massive project that spanned decades and involved tens of thousands of workers, not just a few individuals.

Story

In the foreground, we see a group of workers hauling a massive stone block across the desert sand. The workers are dressed in simple linen garments and are sweating in the heat of the day. They use ropes and wooden sledges to pull the stone block along, while overseers watch from the sidelines to ensure that the work is progressing efficiently.

In the background, we see the towering Khufu Pyramid, partially completed and surrounded by scaffolding. Other workers can be seen climbing the scaffolding or using wooden ladders to ascend the sides of the pyramid, where they chip away at the stone blocks with chisels and hammers.

Despite the hard work and challenging conditions, the workers appear to be focused and determined to complete the project. They know that their efforts will be rewarded with a sense of accomplishment and the knowledge that they have contributed to one of the greatest architectural achievements in human history.

Again, it is important to note that the depiction of slaves building the pyramids is a myth, and that the actual labor force was likely made up of skilled workers and paid laborers.

It is worth noting that while we have some information about the appearance of workers during the construction of the pyramids, there is still much that we do not know. The clothing and tools used by workers may have varied depending on their specific roles and the time period in which they were working.

Scene

In the heart of Diriyah, locals go about their day-to-day lives, carrying on the rich traditions and customs of their ancestors. The sun is shining bright, and the streets are bustling with activity.

At the markets, merchants are selling spices, textiles, and other goods. Shoppers haggle over prices, trying to get the best deal possible.

Nearby, in the gardens, families are picnicking and enjoying the beautiful weather. Children run around, playing games and chasing each other, while their parents relax and chat with friends.

Further down the street, a group of men are gathered outside a mosque, engaged in a lively conversation about religion and politics. As the call to prayer echoes through the city, they make their way inside to pray.

In the Turaif district, a group of women are busy weaving textiles using traditional methods passed down from generation to generation. They chat and laugh as they work, sharing stories and gossip.

As the day wears on, the heat becomes more intense, and many people retreat to the cool shade of their homes. But the vibrant energy of Diriyah never fades, and locals continue to go about their lives, proud of their city's rich history and culture.
