Fantastic! I always wondered how a lock works, now I know! Excellent creative graphics work, I especially enjoy the effects of the water and its movements.
How cgi has changed over the years is pretty amazing and you can tell how much just by looking at the inclusion of 'indulgences' . . . .", We'd like a video explaining how a canal lock work please" Animator: " Sure, no problems and I'll even include some shaky camera shots so that it will look like someone is actually filming it from a boat in line to use the lock" 😊 Great video btw: very informative and pleasing to the eye.
Cargo would be Portaged from one level to another. Also check out on RUclips "Plane 9 West on New Jersey's Morris Canal" By Warren County NJ....which showed how an inclined plane could be traversed From one level to the next in the 1800's. This was a video I made for the Warren County Board of Chosen Freeholders. It illustrates a remarkable part of history and may explain one way that allowed boats to change levels without locks.
Can someone make a video on how a stop lock works? How do they stop one canal from taking water from another (or another body of water) in a way a regular lock doesn't?
Hi Warwick, Greetings. Hope you are well and still working. I am amazed you did this 3 YEARS ago. And while it is super, I know you can do so much better now that you completed the Morris Canal Incline Plane 9 West animation. You do animations still, correct? I think it would be easier to redo this for the Morris Canal by just adding intro to the restored lock at Wharton and to replace this Nova Scotia steam boat with a hinged MC Boat- that you already have rendered so well. Hope you will consider it and reply. Thanks so much!! The world needs your talents to help preserve our NJ USA history, too! RR
hmm! thanks. I read about this in a book and needed to see for myself how it worked. I guess i never considered the necessity of something like a lock because i can't imagine how two natural water bodies would form at different levels... wouldn't water just erode its way through over time, when the levels go up due to rain/flooding? and they always seem to look like the canal behind the lock is pointing the right way to the lock too, so the gates have to be as strong as little dams...hmmm
Consider the fact that you're talking about large bodies of water of varying sizes. Imagine, for instance, that you had a swimming pool, connected to the ocean, by a tiny mote that you dug between the two. If it rained really hard, your swimming pool might get to be much higher - but the ocean? Not at all. So you can see, the size of the body of water, and the sources of water that influence the water level of each body, can affect the water level. The consequence is that if you have one body of water that's higher than the other, and they it has to flow through a narrow opening, the currents will get extreme - and the waves, very rough. And you're right, that kind of rapid movement could cause a lot of erosion, and other consequences for the environment - like affecting jellyfish migration. I feel like, many times, when we see locks, they are due at least in part to some human interference. We can create bottlenecks that interrupt the natural flow of water - and that can cause destruction. To mitigate said destruction, we try to manage the flow of water so that it is more natural....This is all out of my own head, but I grew up around the water, and we have locks, and this is my understanding of why we do. It's worth researching if you're particularly curious about it. But hopefully, this perspective gives you some idea of why we need things like this.

Thanks a bunch, using this video for a research paper in my water resources class!
Great job Cody!
One of the best video for explaining the concept
Kudos to animation team
Just got went down 28 locks today 😮.I am knackered 😂

Great video, thanks for this demonstration!
beautiful animation and explanation.
Very cool animation! So well done.
again its not an anamtion its the live action canal
/-TheOneHumanDude-\ lol, Yes, it is.
Wow ! Great job ! 👍👍👍.
Great job, Warwick.
Good explain 👍
fabulous animation to explain something I still don't quite understand. The whole different water level? what happened before locks were built?

This is best vid pls post more content or fans miss u

Might ya be from Loch Lomond??
Hi, I would like to use this video for education purposes at a local museum in an exhibition about canals. How do I contact you, email?
You are welcome to use it! No need to ask.

What if the boat is going the opposite way as the current?
Regardless of the current, for a boat to go in either direction the level in the lock needs to go both up and down.
I'm here to understand every details in the book i read
Be completely honest with yourselves, you're only here because it was a required watch for online school.
Thanks again to Western engineering!
Yep,and we're talking 'pre - steam' technology, really old but amazing.In the UK there's roughly 4,700 miles of canals criss crossing the country.

Super Duper Hit
POV: You're watching this because of school.
I am and it's currently 11:20 PM but I'm working on it just now because I procrastinated.

Good graphics... useless information regarding the function of a lock.
