This is fantastic and brutal. I have always preferred the idea of a SA adaptation being live action, but if it were animated similarly to this I would be all for it!
@@HD-mp6yy I dont agree that animation is overall better than live action but I fully believe SA should be animated, I dont think you could accomplish what the book does on live action.
Damn....this actually makes me want to see an entire animated movie/series. I can't imagine how incredible it would be with Arcane style animation. Even a CGI style like this would be incredible.
I started to animate the series and you can Watch the prelude on my channel. But it‘s fairly bad and not nearly as good as this one. But I am trying to get there ;)
I like how how you did Syl. This is the thing I worry about the most for a potential SA adaptation - the spren could make the world look terribly awkward if not done right. But yours feel right somehow.
Yup. This is heavily implied. On one of the runs he yells “Tien” in desperation sees that the Parshendi seem surprised by what is happening. He used Reverse Lashing to make the bridge attract the arrows.
its heavily implied in the way of kings that that's exactly what was happening. kal was infusing the bridge with light causing the arrows to be attracted to it and thus avoiding him. he just didn't realize he was doing it. it's even mentioned I think that Kaladin would return from bridge runs and find all his spheres would be dun despite just being recently infused.
Bro if a small team with small budget can create these kind of animation. Imagine a big studio, showing the love cosmere deserves. It would instantly beat all the show records if it remains faithful to the books.
I have a hard time visualizing while reading, so this was serious such a pleasure to watch (despite being so brutal!) I always wondered how the bridge runs might look, and now I know! Thanks mate
I would love if all the Cosmere got adapted into an Anime. Live action would be great but I feel like anime style would be the best medium to bring these books to life, especially mistborn and Stormlight.
Amazing work! You really showed the brutality and intensity of the runs. When the man falls down the chasm and its zooms out to the bridge sliding over the chasm, absolute perfection
So that's how the bridge look. I have had trouble imagining it everytime I think about it. It doesn't make sense what I imagined. Yours, it made absolute sense. Thanks!
I don't think it's 100% accurate--TWoK describes it having grooves for the bridgemen, and Bridge Four's side carry maneuver never would have worked to block arrows with all that open space between the spokes in the animation. But otherwise I'd say it gets the general idea.
SOO cool! What a great project! PLEASE depict another stormlight or cosmere scene in a future project!! It's very enjoyable to see something like this! Excellent job! So neat to see anything from the Stormlight Archive depicted on the screen :)
This is awesome, small problem though. The runners were protected by the top of the bridge and in a tighter formation underneath. The particulars of this are relevant from a story perspective because the front it's what determined the Hierarchy of command and seniority during runs. It's what makes Kal running in front so significant. As you have it this formation offers very little protection for anyone when approaching a chasm. This loose a formation would allow archers to pick off individuals and possibly hit the entire formation with a single salvo, providing little benefit to running in the rear. If you run another animation get them up under the bridge and see if you can simulate the claustrophobia of running at a wall of arrows without being able to see them coming, just your fellow bridgemen dying next to you.
Excellent work. I always thought it is impossible to adapt stormlight archive. The shattered plains, spren and different beasts. But after seeing this I have hope.
The shattered plains looks amazing just how I pictured it. I feel like the animation itself was missing something though maybe smoothness but I'm not an animator or artist. All in all great video
This does make more sense for the build of the bridges than what I had in my head…but I still want to see a wooden trestle span bridge wide enough for two war horses to ride side by side across a 40ft wide chasm, which is more of my personal head cannon. Still, very nicely done!!
Amazing work, congratulations to every participant in this beautiful animation, I loved the Syl transition and the exhaustion and hopelessness on Kaladin's face
I'd like to know how they keep the top from dipping down as it rolls over the void of the chasm. It seems like they'd need a lot of downward pressure on the backend to avoid that.
This is amazing! The one criticism I have is that the bridge crew seems to be walking quite slowly, compared to them sprinting/running as fast as they could in the book. But that’s rather minor compared to the overall quality of the animation
I didn't imagine the Shattered Planes area to be soo deserty. I thought it would be more like in Death Stranding, where it sorta looks like normal area, but something unnatural cracked it.
This i brilliant. I fell like the bridge 4 story arc made the way of kings so much better than any of the ones that follow(so far) we need to get back to that victory of the human spirit not the victory of the super powers
this was so well done. i'm not a big fan of anything post book 2 in stormlight archive but these scenes of bridge four traversing the chasms will always stand out to me.
This was great! Personally though, I always pictured smaller bridges, with the bridgemen much more closely packed, since they have to be able to side-carry the bridge. This felt like a weird amalgamation of Sadeas' bridges combined with the Kholin bridges.
There were people underneath the bridge too If i remember correctly and I'm pretty sure the bridge must'e had a slight arch to deal with the weight of the heavy cavalry. But great animation
Oh storms this is amazing! I got chills! I've always wanted a live-action Stormlight, but you have just changed my mind. A CGI film would look awesome too. I was so disappointed to see this end, I kept waiting for more haha. If an unofficial fan vid made me feel this hyped up, imagine what would the official trailer do, no matter the medium. Once again, thank you so much! I immensely enjoyed the sixty-one seconds I spent watching this. No doubt I will enjoy all my rewatches too.
Wow! This is some incredible work... 2 deaths? Good run by all standards. Life Before Death, Radiant.
I counted 3 :D
I'm pretty sure the bridges in the books were much larger with larger teams, like usually no less than 25.

Yep still my favourite part of any book series!
This is fantastic and brutal. I have always preferred the idea of a SA adaptation being live action, but if it were animated similarly to this I would be all for it!
I'm very glad you like it :D
I considered live action to be inferior to animation. The Stormlight Archive should be animation.
@@HD-mp6yy I dont agree that animation is overall better than live action but I fully believe SA should be animated, I dont think you could accomplish what the book does on live action.
I keep saying I want the people who animated love death and robots the Zima blue and ice episode specifically
Weird, I've always considered animation as a no-brainer for Stormlight.
It's just not practical in live action unless you ger an enormous budget.

I just realized how Kaladin always survived the hail of arrows from the Parshendi.
Dude was using his Windrunner abilities unconcoiously.

You just realized that?

I actually gasped when the bridgeman fell in the chasm. That whole vid was so stunning
It is sad how excited I felt at that. How ever when the, inevitable, Stormlight series is made, I hope it has the passion the books have.
I did an animation of the prelude of you are interested. It’s by far not as good as this one but still
This reminds me of a blizzard cutscene, and I mean that in the best way possible

So that's how the bridge look. I have had trouble imagining it everytime I think about it. It doesn't make sense what I imagined. Yours, it made absolute sense. Thanks!
I was wondering how they got it over the chasm and prevented it from falling in.

The best SLA animation i have seen yet!
I hope Brandon gets to see this.
Thank you.
Raw and brutal. Put me right back in my first read of the book
So dope. Just needs some battle cries and parshendi singing 👍
Literal goosebumps, amazing facial animation!
This would be such a good live action series. Especially the scene fighting Szeth and Kaladin in the high storm.

What is this quality, it's insane. It can't be amateur.
Really puts into perspective the horrible struggle bridgemen go through. It would def be the honor chasm for me mate.
