This honestly would make a great video game concept You play as the sand soldiers and can pull from the sand and combine into various war machines from medieval times. With shells as armor. Various forms of sea life being the antagonist You could do local split screen and online play where players could combine into single forms they both control. A wordless story Call the game Sands of Time The overall plot being that nothing lasts forever, and no matter how hard you fight and the battles you win, eventually everything is wiped away by the sea, however depending on how dark you like your stories, the end could be happyish: the sand soldiers come back after the wave comes, and it's rebuilt again over and over. Pros: effectively only one decal is needed for most of the assets as most are made of the same material. A wordless take on the story would mean less work and people all in all. Everything that isn't sand gets to be really detailed Cons: since no dialogue, the game would need VERY good choreography The shadow simulation would need to be SUBURB since most of the game would be the same textures, shadows would be one of the only ways to see finer details.
Not a single word of dialogue , no facial expressions and no blood ...and yet MORE emotion and pain was shown and felt from the music than most Action films. Most Excellent! Simplement le meilleur!
It’s really emotional especially when the guys almost dies and then just manages to stun the crab and STILL holds his ground. He’s fighting a losing battle with more courage than ever
Shut up. You have corrupted this entire comment section. In my eyes you do not deserve a single like. I hope that you realize the error of your ways. God night and have a pleasant tomorrow, where I pray that no one will ever speak of this again
It's probable : it was made in France, and France has a lot of talented artist working on different project. They likely evolved in a professionnal environnement suited for them.
Imagine this form the crab’s perspective. He just waddling around and sees some weird looking sand in his way. No big deal He just walks over it and pushes some castles down and a little kid, watching his masterpiece being destroyed, comes up with a story on how his little sand people defended his castle with all they could
*The Imagination Of A Child Is A Beautiful Thing. May That Spirit Of Wonder, Adventure And Fantasy Never Die Out, Even If We Humans Fade Away Like Sand Brushed Flat By The Tides.*
This is truly a wonderful animation. The way this epic battle is portrayed, how it builds up to this massively decisive moment, just for a wave to come crashing down. It truly is a work of art, showing how far one's childish imagination can take them on adventures such as this one.
Living sand, the state shall grow. Bounded walls and legion show. Eyes that guard the orb of white, For beast that lurk such wondrous sight. Dust of men defend to last Hero rise to smite his cast. But fade the place of water's wave, As all such mind for kids to brave.
Every frame of this video is absolutely breathtaking...I have never in my life ever seen such amazing animation...and 1..the water looks realistic..and 2 the sand physics look amazing..this almost seems like this would be on TVs at the store
@Frogger oh that one i thought the creator of the animation died and the sand just appeard out of nowhere so as long as someone makes sand castles the knight's will follow
I loved this film. I thought it was so wonderfully imaginative. This is a brilliant display of perspectives that allows us to open our minds to the possibility of life beyond our current understanding. Throughout I became attached to the people of the sand city and I watched eagerly as the hero vanquished his foe only to then be destroyed by nature itself and the true image of it all was revealed. I can only hope that such creativity can grow into something the world can appreciate.
Animation is truly a beautiful thing. A successful animation gets you to build a connection and feel for the characters residing in it. If you built an attachment and feel generally sad or tear up then the animation has done its job, it just shows how powerful an impact it leaves on you no matter how short or long the piece lasts. I can honestly and truly say that I thoroughly loved this animation and legitimately teared up and felt sad about the last sand soldier demise. It truly brings and takes you back to memories of a simpler time when our imaginations were as expansive as the infinite galaxy that we live in. I tip my hat off to you for this beautifully made animation.
The initial details are what captivated me, the physics of the exceedingly realistic appearance of sand falling away from the castle walls to the sparkles within the sand as the camera pans around are phenomenal, perfect intro of a spectacular concept and execution for a short story production.
"you cant, it is the curse... all sandcastles that are away from the sea can not be formed. the only way to save your majesty castle is to build bigger walls or to create ways to deviate the water away and that is the beauty of sand castles, the never ending war against the inevitable end" - me when my dad told me the same thing when I was a kid.

Because this is old animation? They used to have more potentials and efforts into it, look at animation like Ed and else in the channel, though I didn't say evey new animation is bad, it's just decreasing in quality sadly :(
sairam allaka please rewrite you comment in English so that it makes sense, right now it uses English words but without structure and so it’s just random words.
When I first saw the crab break through the wall 3 years ago, I thought it was a skeleton hand. Damn it had me confused for a few seconds until I saw the crab.
Marx Galactic Ambition are you saying being fat is disgusting and weird and we should start being vegetarians for eons? nice try. i think my like will stay a meat eater.
Best shortfilm ive seen so far, its confusing in the beginning. The graphics are AWSOME and I loved the "its just a small sand castle and marbel" ending. 10/10
More like "How humanity perceives its existence". But in fact, our civilization is just a sand castle and all what we fight for is just a silly marble. Mother nature won't even notice when we will disappear :I I need a drink.
You could write a pretty cool lore or an essay out of this ngl. Actually I think this animation got the award is because, in the ending, it show a lot of thing: -the castle is made by childrens -the crab(well... its a smol crab but in the animation, its a big crab) -the tsunami is just a small wave -the pearl is a glass ball And lastly, the sand soldiers are made out of imagination(and inspired by some shells). It's just makes you so touched that childrens' imagination is so wild(I cant find a better word) and innocent.
This was absolutely awesome. The symbolism in this was strong and the music greatly enhanced the whole animation, damn even moved me to tears. Outstanding job.
N Lin To answer the question in short. I believe it depends on the person watching. For me personally the symbolism was present mainly at the point where the Sand Knight got beaten down by the Crab, yet kept on fighting. Pulling a massive blade out of the ground, and as hope returned Light shone brightly, dispersing the darkness, for hope yet remained. As if stating to never give up, no matter the situation, rise up, continue fighting and the Heavens themselves shall bless you with resolve. A bit poetic, bit philosophical I know but I believe you can see where I am coming from. As I said it depends on the viewer and what he associates the video and theme in question with :)
Это что-то не вероятное, это впечатляет. Сражаться до конца, на сколько хватит сил. Отличная сюжетная линия, моё огромное уважение к создателям этого шедевра.
This short film had more emotion and better acting than most Hollywood actors and actresses I have seen before. Much better than many blockbuster movie fails. Keep up the good work!!
I was more emotionally attached to that Sand Knight than anyone in the last StarWars movie
lol in star wars you want everyone to die so that's not saying much

Brilliant
This honestly would make a great video game concept
You play as the sand soldiers and can pull from the sand and combine into various war machines from medieval times. With shells as armor.
Various forms of sea life being the antagonist
You could do local split screen and online play where players could combine into single forms they both control.
A wordless story
Call the game Sands of Time
The overall plot being that nothing lasts forever, and no matter how hard you fight and the battles you win, eventually everything is wiped away by the sea, however depending on how dark you like your stories, the end could be happyish: the sand soldiers come back after the wave comes, and it's rebuilt again over and over.
Pros: effectively only one decal is needed for most of the assets as most are made of the same material.
A wordless take on the story would mean less work and people all in all.
Everything that isn't sand gets to be really detailed
Cons: since no dialogue, the game would need VERY good choreography
The shadow simulation would need to be SUBURB since most of the game would be the same textures, shadows would be one of the only ways to see finer details.
Sounds pretty cool tbh

Because this is old animation? They used to have more potentials and efforts into it, look at animation like Ed and else in the channel, though I didn't say evey new animation is bad, it's just decreasing in quality sadly :(
Cause Marvel movies are entirely shot in a Hall full of greenscreens
I feel like it wasn’t only captain marvel
A story told through action instead of words is far more powerful than you could imagine.
*"MOM NOO! A CRAB DESTROYED MY SAND CASTLE"*
Fuck that other person you say what really happened lmao 😂😆😁
Bogdan Boca i could've protected it, if it wasn't for the crab that's guarding it and might pin me
THE•INTROVERTED• OWL actually it was the wave but yes the crab assisted in destroying it lol
Wave is destroyed everything when i was thought it's was my dream
sairam allaka please rewrite you comment in English so that it makes sense, right now it uses English words but without structure and so it’s just random words.
Great story told in less than 6 minutes with an actual ending! The CGI was amazing- the movements were so real. A wonderful imagination.
+tk421missing no
This is the most emotional I've been in years. Its so beautiful.
Damn, this new spider-man looks pretty good. Glad to see sandman get more screen time.
lol
The sandmen
@@KaleKBK808imagine them just doing jojo poses
When I first saw the crab break through the wall 3 years ago, I thought it was a skeleton hand. Damn it had me confused for a few seconds until I saw the crab.
same
I did too.
Perhaps that was intentional, the crab symbolizes death
@@SATELLITEDOWN7735 Nope, it's just a crab on the beach and some kid made that castle. (Maybe ???)
@@humanitysenterprise yeah and a crab was attracted to that shiny looking thing until the wave destroyed everything
Same here ngl
I love the animation, and I thought the ending was very creative! One big fat like from me.
Marx Galactic Ambition yes I just took it to the vet a few days ago. It’s been eating it’s vegetables, so now it’s is a lot healthier.
Marx Galactic Ambition
are you saying being fat is disgusting and weird and we should start being vegetarians for eons? nice try. i think my like will stay a meat eater.
I would love if they put it longer the Movie but still good but it would be better if it was long who agree with me
And jay from the kubz scouts is that dude
How about one big fat dislike 👍🏻
kids building sand castles: mom look, i built a sand castle.
men building sand castles:
Best shortfilm ive seen so far, its confusing in the beginning.
The graphics are AWSOME and I loved the "its just a small sand castle and marbel" ending.
10/10
I'm not crying.. I just have sand in my eye...

Clever comment
Yassel Gonzalez oh my gosh why do you have the blood of those poor men in your eyes
better animations than any mainstream animated movie.. hats off to you whoever created this
No matter how many years have passed, I still love this animation the same.❤
AMAZING! Better than 90% of what Hollywood makes.
AiurWarrior1 that's a pretty bold statement
True
@@CallmeDaddy21 it is pretty bold..but yeah nowadays...
The Rock movies say ok
hmm i doubt
How children see sand castles
TheAtomicNoobinator :p, excuse me?
Lukas Keeley i feel like its more of a compliment saying how children are very imaginative and creative
Nerdy Gamer I know. I just thought it was funny to say "excuse me". I was hoping that he would reply.
More like "How humanity perceives its existence". But in fact, our civilization is just a sand castle and all what we fight for is just a silly marble. Mother nature won't even notice when we will disappear :I
I need a drink.
Yomayo true dat
Sand people: Send the armies.
Crab: It'll never be enough. My shell's too tough.
Maui man
Fish are dumb dumb dumb
Oh, and here they come, come, come

Mmm fish dinners
You could write a pretty cool lore or an essay out of this ngl.
Actually I think this animation got the award is because, in the ending, it show a lot of thing:
-the castle is made by childrens
-the crab(well... its a smol crab but in the animation, its a big crab)
-the tsunami is just a small wave
-the pearl is a glass ball
And lastly, the sand soldiers are made out of imagination(and inspired by some shells).
It's just makes you so touched that childrens' imagination is so wild(I cant find a better word) and innocent.
"With our power combined! We are CRAB SLAYER!"
***** awww...
Lol
StarKnight619 The new darksouls looks great.
oh yeah mr crab
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
lol
Story
Visuals
Good Animation
Sound
one of the best i've seen in recent time .
There isn't even any dialogue, but you can FEEL the emotion. This man/woman should go into film making!
even with all that, who won was the fricking boat crab
This was absolutely awesome. The symbolism in this was strong and the music greatly enhanced the whole animation, damn even moved me to tears. Outstanding job.
N Lin
To answer the question in short. I believe it depends on the person watching.
For me personally the symbolism was present mainly at the point where the Sand Knight got beaten down by the Crab, yet kept on fighting. Pulling a massive blade out of the ground, and as hope returned Light shone brightly, dispersing the darkness, for hope yet remained. As if stating to never give up, no matter the situation, rise up, continue fighting and the Heavens themselves shall bless you with resolve.
A bit poetic, bit philosophical I know but I believe you can see where I am coming from. As I said it depends on the viewer and what he associates the video and theme in question with :)
Это что-то не вероятное, это впечатляет. Сражаться до конца, на сколько хватит сил. Отличная сюжетная линия, моё огромное уважение к создателям этого шедевра.
Ah yes I see RUclips's recommendation is working as intended.
This short film had more emotion and better acting than most Hollywood actors and actresses I have seen before. Much better than many blockbuster movie fails. Keep up the good work!!
a
You're exaggerating lol
It has no acting in it
Nere is no acting and no emotion. But it's very well animated. I'll give you that.
Ambar there are two types of emotion the characters and the setting or what's taking place in this short film this certainly has emotion
I watched this back in 2016 and it’s still my favorite animated short
I luv how accurately epic this is
