    A single young Triceratops is the only one of her clutch to hatch. Her mother must lead her only child through the wonderous but dangerous Cretaceous landscape.
    I love dinosaurs. I've loved dinosaurs for as long as I can remember. Dinosaurs appear in nearly every single one of my animated shorts in one form or another, so I honestly think it was only a matter of time before I created a dedicated short about them!
    I stuck to a simple premise and a strong theme. This short is the most fun I've had animating in a while. I don't think I'll ever tire of bringing dinos to life. I'm particularly proud of the colour-palette in this short. It's striking and pulpy and I tried to tell a lot of the story through the colour-choices and colour-changes.
    Hope you guys enjoy this one! ^_^
    This is a re-upload. My original video had sound effects from the video game, "The Isle". I have now replaced them with my own sound effects.
    EDIT: Apparently, a bunch of people have told me that I missed one at the end when the T.Rex yawns so I checked the file and they're right. I'm an idiot. I'm not reuploading this a third time to remove less than 2 seconds of sound though (a sound effect which is edited and mixed with another). I've tried to get Dondi's permission/attention but he doesn't seem to care. Go check out the Isle or whatever.

      It makes perfect sense. People are quick to villain-ize carnivores - sharks, wolves, hyenas and crocodiles are infamously painted as ruthless, mindless, man-eating monsters - but the reality is they didn't ask for their lives to be fuelled by the deaths of other creatures. Unlike humans, who notoriously kill other humans and animals for reasons completely unrelated to survival - things like revenge, blackmail, sport or even just the hell of it - animals mostly kill because, well, they HAVE to.
      If that shark doesn't eat that "cute-and-cuddly seal", it might starve to death, a far more painful end than simply being gobbled up. If that tiger doesn't catch the deer, it could be in for a worse fate than the deer would get; at least the tiger would kill it quickly. This short does an amazing job showing that: Predators aren't monsters, just animals making their way in the world with the hand they were dealt and the natural tools they were given. Not malicious or sadistic, but *simply born with sharp teeth.*

      Natalia Dino-drawer i love the message. but, if you‘re specialised in paleontology, why are you not mentioning the carnivore in this scenario that doesn‘t have feathers? it‘s theropod that looks to be closely related to tyrannosaurus, that means it most likely would have feathers in at least one stage of its life.

    • @dinodrawer4658
      @dinodrawer4658 4 года назад +58

      @@rokukou Hi!
      Good question!
      Due to the last studies it's likely T.rex and other tyrannosaurid had feathers. However, its likely T.rex wasn't completly covered in them. So, although we can agree baby T.rex should be covered in feathers, adult could be partialy covered or with little feathers like fur in elephants.
      In fact, in the video we can see another theropods with feathers which I see they are Maniraptora representants like ornithomimid or troodontids (I remember).
      So, although we can discuss if this video could be more accurate, for me the intention have a greater value.
      I mean, how many times could we see dinosaurs portrayed as animals and not just killing machines? It's an image the public has absorbed and it's quite hard to show them how these animals really were. As a little scientist disseminator, I have encontered so many times with the Jurassic Park dogma of "bloody thirsty angry monsters". So, this animations and paleoarts helped us A LOT to teach people how really these animals behave. Think about it. There will be always a new study that change the apearance of a fossil creature, but how the public look at them seeing them as animals and not monsters, that is very appreciated.
      I hope I answered your question. 😊

    “Don’t worry. Blunt teeth
    and beaks, four feet.

    just stay close to me.”

    the tall ones turn around.

    stuck so close to ground.

    Slow but tough and strong.
    Her young one not so behind her.
    The young belongs.
    Every twitch another monster.
    Mother is convinced
    She’ll never leave her youngster;
    Evil monsters do exist.
    The young one cries out,
    But Mother is too late.
    The evil monster lunged
    And sealed the young ones fate.
    Mother’s instincts shattered,
    Scared and confused of what became.
    “So round and small and helpless…”
    With only herself to blame.
    With this broken mother,
    It seems the evil doesn’t good.
    But the evil doesn’t eat.

    I really like the colors. You used an alternating complementary pattern to show duality, and that was visually symbolic and pleasing. I would still hate to be on the receiving end of those sharp teeth, though, despite the message of survival.
    I bet the beef I had for dinner would have hated to know what it has become as well. Life is so full of pain and death.

    This video really shows how good and evil sometimes are relative concepts: we all think about the preys as victims and predators as evil monsters (like in The Land Before Time) but the truth is the Mother Tyrannosaurus didn't kill the young Triceratops for cruel pleasure but for necessity of raising her children.

      The concept of good and evil itself is flawed. There are simply opposing forces, and while they may commit atrocities against each other, they will usually not do so among their own faction. If one were ever to wipe the other out completley, the losers would probably call the "evil" if you asked them, but left without an opponent, the winners would become peacful.
      Good and evil are human concepts, not universal factors. So they exist, but only subjectivley. The universe rids itself of things that don't abide it's rules, so on the rare occaisions when "true good" or "true evil" does arise, it never lasts.

    I keep rewatching this animation simply because of how beautiful it is. The narration is really what makes this film. The dinosaurs have feelings but at the same time aren’t human. They’re animals, not monsters as people like to make them. As the mother panics the narration speeds up, selling that feel of terror. Every time that part makes my heart race. Then as the child is taken, the narration stops, which is how it feels in those moments. Everything slows down and it feels like you can do something in that moment, but in truth you can’t. Because while it feels so slow everything is moving just the same and there’s no time to think, or narrate what’s going on. And the final words of this film “simply born with sharp teeth” are just amazing. It’s such a simple phrase and yet it’s perfect.

Most outside are friendly! The swift, the tall, who fly, being so close to ground, it’s.. nice, to have more eyes. Don’t worry, blunt teeth and beaks, four feet, none here have sharp teeth, just stay close to me.”
    The swift ones run away, the tall ones turn around. Both with heightened senses, and stuck so close to ground. What made them run in fear? Mother is confused. An evil Monster is near! Her young, she cannot lose! Mother is to defend, slow but Tough and strong! Her young one, not so behind her! The young bellows, every twitch, another monster. Mother is convinced. She’ll never leave her youngster, evil monster Do exist!
    The young one cries out. But mother, is too late. The evil monster lunged and sealed the young ones fate. Mother’s instincts Shattered. Scared, confused of what became. So round, and small, and helpless, with only herself to blame.
    With this.. Broken mother. It seems the evil doesn’t mean good. But the evil doesn’t eat.. the young was not it’s food... the evil has its own young, Evil, could these be? “I think not.” Says they’re mother, “Simply born with sharp teeth.”

This seeming quite sad at one moment, but showing that for ones sadness is a good, there being no good or bad in these times. Just living, as they said themselves, "The evil has its own young. Evil could these be? I think not, says their mother, simply born with sharp teeth." Combined with the slow, sad, and joyful combined music, it being happy for another, sad for others. But this is survival. These are parts that make this film amazing, well animated, a good narrator, speaking in poems. This is surely one of the best Dinosaur videos you could find on the RUclips.

    I adore this animation! The colours design and story. It's an animation that has inspired me in my artistic journey for years now. I'm now in university studying games art and I'm happy to say that I have mentioned and referenced Dead Sound in my 3D Maya class

    The thumbnail art caught my attention, and after watching for third first time I still doubt I can explain how I am blown away by the style of the characters, the backgrounds and the animation 🙌🙌🙌 All AMAZING! the story is simple, sweet and really well put together. The voice of the narrator at first caught me off guard, but as I've watched it it's really quite a charming accent (The accent itself and how it fits to the shortfilm) the music, also, just fits so perfectly.
    If I dont stop now I'm not sure if I will
    To put it simply, this is an amazing film, your skill and talent are outstanding and as this was the first video I've ever found by you I'm about to explore your page 😅❤ definately subscribing, hope to see more amazing works in the future!

      Omg, kay I was wrong! This isnt the first film of yours I've watched. A couple years ago I found your short film(s) about the dystopian world and was amazed! I remember I showed my teachers and especially my social studies teacher loved them. Anyhow I'm not sure why I didnt sub then 😅 am now :3
      Have a great day!

    i hate it when things call carnivores "mean" or "evil". like dude they just trying to live their life, everythings gotta eat. they gotta kill their prey to eat. other than that, great film :D

      i agree but playing "devil's advocate" here, imagine you're the mother and your son was just taken away by a hyena. of course you would be depressed and call the hyena "mean" and "evil" because it took your son. you're not thinking about how the hyena feels in that situation.

    I absolutely love how neither creature is evil nor good. It really puts into perspective how there is no such thing as a good war. An endless battle, where no one can truly win. One cannot live in harmony with the other while at the same time they require each other to live. If the carnivore dies then the herbivore never gets eaten, and it would die from overpopulation. And if the herbivore died then the carnivore would die from starvation. So although neither of them could live together in harmony they both require each other for survival of the whole. Kind of like a yin and yang thing.

    I think what's best about this Animation is it starts out portraying the predator as the villain, the "evil", because it's from the perspective of the prey. But it all changes when you look through the predator's eyes.
