  • This short 3D animation shows the evolution and history of one of the most well-known British landmarks - the Tower of London.
    Part 1 takes us to mid-11th century London where a new castle began construction - the Tower of London. It ends in 1220 A.D. upon initial completion of the defensive complex.

    Like the way the walls burst forth in the style of Dark City. Also, a nice touch in the music of adding chanting when the chapel was added.

    Oh wow! I liked the way of how the towers emerged from the ground, later the walls deconstructed and rebuilt. I always wonder, how on earth did they had the perseverance to build it. Just imagine, that a farmer went out to give food to his herd of calves, later on the field turned into a wall or a fortification, which was deconstructed, rebuilt, deconstructed and so on. This literarly blows my mind. I remember that I even had the chance of visiting the tower in 2015. I was like 14 years old at that time. I was amazed by the architecture back then.

    There was no 3rd floor in the White Tower until around 1490. The roof line shown is therefore incorrect.

    I myself have been to the Tower of London, twice. I loved it, one of the most magnificent castles I've ever seen. I was once caught filming and was told to stop and seeing as it was forbidden to film inside the keep, I never released that footage to the public, but then I was given a private individual tour of the keep, including Saint John's chapel.

    Without the Norman invasion, one should wonder how and when would the english folk adopt the construction of castles, and what style they would use (I'm mostly siding with the idea they would copy the architectural style from Denmark and Norway).

  • @RS-xx9ve

    Historical and modern day fact:
    The worst thing to ever have happened to England/Britain was the invasion by the Normans.
    Before the invasion people owned their own land and could read.
    After the invasion, land was confiscated and everyone became serfs/slaves and the masses were prohibited from reading. Everything became under the control of the French ("Norman") king and his "aristocracy" of Normans. This is pretty similar today.
    The masses still haven't got their land back, and the aristocracy (now mixed with a few Germans and others) still control education and all the organs of power. The masses are now modern day serfs, extremely rarely breaking into the ranks of the Establishment.
    Even the "upper class" accent (the classic marker of an apartheid system) is basically a French accent mixed with some German.
    Dialects and accents of all the British regions ie former kingdoms or realms rarely if ever occupy influential positions.
    Tragically this is rarely if ever written about and most people accept their slavery.

    Turn to half speed to maximize enjoyment and understanding.
    Where's the rendering? They didn't call it the grey or tan tower.
    Sometimes whitewashing history actually makes it more accurate. It would have in this case.

      Thanks for your comment! I'm currently working on the second part of the video, and will make sure to adjust the speed to make it more enjoyable. Feedback is really important to me. As for the rendering, you are correct, however, Henry III ordered the tower whitewashed in 1240 - it will be highlighted in the beginning of the next part, stay tuned!

      British spelling countries like the UK, Canada, Austrilia, NZ prefer "isation" over "ization", as it is spelled as "isation" in French.
