SYMBIOSIS a short film by Mitchell Counsell
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 сер 2011
- A Short Animated Film produced while I attended Sheridan's School of Computer Animation. During the 8 month program we spent 4 months learning the fundamentals of Maya and the remaining 4 in production of our final short films. Starting without any real experience in 3D Software, this film represents how much one can learn and produce in such a time constraint. Each student conceived and produced their own original independent film and the same was True for this "SYMBIOSIS" film. All storyboarding, modeling, rigging, texturing, animating, rendering, compositing and dynamic effects were done by myself.
Inevitably some compromises had to be made in order to complete the film in the specified timeline but I was quite happy with the end result and had an excellent time during my 8 months.
Sheridan College FTW. Learning is fun.

So basically the little grub things get protection from the rock golem thing and the rock golem gets a meal by the predators that the small creatures attract, really is a symbiosis

Hey it’s you from rebizira’s channel
@@V1ncenz010 hello
I can't believe nobody has said the quote "Theres always a bigger fish."
That's it, I'm naming the Creatures.
The little green guy = Grubling
The bipedal elephant thing = Gaspodolt
The rock monster = Cambolesteus
Yes
Nice.
thanks
I gooled these names it shows no results
@@rkstracks2070 That's because I made 'em up, dude.
Yay!! The cute little green guy survived!! The green dudes are so cute!! This animation kinda reminded me of the game Spore.
I acctually have the game, I think I'm gona do those creatures, the little ones will be easy.
@@lexpressdecs
I played Spore a lot. It becomes repetitive after a while. You colonise, terraform, set defences and repeat. I was tryibg to make it interesting bu gathering creatures and mixibg them by making for example a Dino Planet, cataloging plants with similar characteristics but all in all, Spore was a wasted potential. How come the choices were so limited? You could have traits like: scavenger, cannibal, looter, corrupted (evil trader), warmonger, fanatic, etc. I would find those traits more interesting to chose. Also the Empires were just so lazy. They won't colonise other systems until they're met. How come only Grox are massive from a get go?
Seriously, I put mods in the game just to see when the dame crushes.
@@lexpressdecs
All body parts, physical traits and body shape are only cosmetic.
That's the sad truth about Spore. Same goes for buildings, vehicles and spaceships. Shapes, additions and colours doesn't matter, they will work.
i actually mis it now that u metioned it
Same
I love how the rock-thing sort of unfolds from the background, then melts back into it. Dat camouflage.
I think it's not as much of camouflage as a simple effect of dormant life, like sponge or coral.
+Hyper same difference dude
Phhase so does it have eyes???
The camouflage of a Cambolesteus is like no other. In Nature, they're the masters of disguise
@@deadkiwi3596 The Cambolesteus *does* have eyes, they're just really small and hidden.
Wow. The creatures are like Muppets from Hell.
Great animation, especially considering the tight turn around time.
Much respect.
Isn't the circle of life just....... wonderful?

Hey circle of life, circle of death.
Yeah ... Do you want to be part of it? :D
wait circle?That would mean that....
Lol that nature is very scary rock eats mutant creatures
At first i thought the elephant-like creature wanted to be friends with the insect, turn out that he wants to eat it 😒
Happy Smile same
Happy Smile, well of course!
That's nature for ya.
Did you just assumed its gender?
Same
Moral of the story, don't screw with the frog things ( they remind me of frogs)
Matt's ClayNation more like gecko frog things
Chameleons maybe?
they reminds me of caterpillars but with legs and short body
Let's just call them frocaterhoppers-gekomeleon
They look like caterpiller rabbit things to me but i guess you can say they look like caterpiller rabbit frog things
I think the little chameleon dude came out to lure out predators for a trap; so once the closest predator was eaten, they all could come out and begin grazing
That's kinda like i forgot the name but its like when animals group up as a team to help themselves
@@Vic_Lit344 symbiotic
@@dominicthegamingnerd8650 yeah! A symbiotic relationship
I think the green dudes eat the grass of the rock dude and clean him and in return the rock dude protects them
@@themasterofstuff1416 also the rock dude eats any predator that tries to eat the lil green dudes
What's going through the one green little dude's mind, "come on, get a little closer. Hah! U want to eat me?! Carnivorous elphant-thing meet my friend carnivorous landscape rock! Why don't you stay for lunch?"
xD
It's actually the whole point of a symbiotic relationship. The carnivorous landscape rock, as you put it, offers a safe environment to the little green dudes while they, in turn, naturally attract small predators for the rock thing to feed upon.
But I will admit that your comment made me laugh as well ^_^

Bianca Arcand Yeah!
A predator that disguises itself as a pile of rocks...
PURE GENIUS 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great teachers, facilities and classmates were certainly necessary but what really made it possible were all the lunches my Grandma made me while I was studying ;)
a subscription I picked up to Digitaltutors also helped out quite a bit.
Thanks for the like :)

*The lizard dude, waking up after being gassed by the Lovecraft Elephant:* I lived bitch
that was cool. I want one of the little green guys as a pet. he was so adorable.
Same they are prescious hehe
At first I thought that elephant thing was going to help him.

When the punk doesn't realize you're rollin' with the big freak settin' in the corner, and tries to start a fight. 😂 Yeah, make friends with that dude for a good reason.
@Janson Gander Ok...
In your analogy, to be symbiosis the big freak in the corner has to get some kind of direct bonus from rolling with me... Maybe I always insist on making an awesome breakfast which I insist on sharing with him and is really the most nutritious thing he eats all day..
BUT whatever symbiosis is subtly happening to have the Big Freak watching over me.. the visual I got of the Punks surprise. .made me laugh..
; )
Who else didn't see the giant rock thing
Me, when I watched this the first time.
F
I didn't lol.
I did not see it coming!

Elephant thing : "Your free trial of life is over." *Trys to kill green thing*
Rock thing : *"NO YOUR FREE TRIAL OF LIFE IS OVER NOW DIE!"* *Eats elephant thing*
Hello all friends!
Do you like butterfly & music?
Relax with watching butterflies and music.
Big ole rocky boi just keeps those green guys on his back as bait for his real food lol
@@Naturalbeautyin4K that has nothing to do with this video
Would love to see more of this. Especially these creatures and style.
It like the small guys bring pray to to big dude so the big dude will protect the small one , Amazing!
Yantie Aryantie My thoughts as well.
It's a interesting relationship, honestly. The little bug guys hang around the rock guy for protection, and in turn their presence attracts predators which become pray for the rock guy. He get's fed and they are kept safe; a win win.
Yup thats why the title is symbiosis because the two creatures have a symbioticrelationship
I think the green dudes eat the grass of the rock dude and clean him and in return the rock dude protects them
wtj
Amazing story, great visuals, awesome music. This has the whole enchilada.❤️
So basicly the symbiosis mutualisme of this video:
The cricket thing gets protection by the living rock while protecting he gets food aswell
Its like two animals communicate where 1 gets a luck and so the other.
cowboy piggy to clarify the mini cricket gets protection and shelter from predators, and the Stone beast get his dinner
あの緑の虫実は途中で気づいててしりふって仲間に教えたんじゃないかって思ってるかっこいい
oddly enough i can see this happenning some where on the planet not the creature obviously but the priciple
Favillion Bellarion - It does happen on the planet.
I'm sure there are plenty of instances but I doubt and actual symbiotic relationship like this would sustain itself for a long what with one of them being hunted to luer food for the other
The lizard things don't even get anything out of this deal you might say protection but that would not really apply because it's camouflaged so that they can effectively be hunted near it so it doesn't scare anything off which would give them a reason to help
yes its based off a natural acurance
This thing wouldn't work because the stone thing is to strong and the gray elephant things would've gone extinct and the stone guys wouldn't get anything out of that so they would just start eating the lizards
that was a bad ass rock

Oooo are you teaching me Russian?
Ah, I remember when my elementary teacher used this video to teach us about symbiosis.....
Good times....
i feel bad for that elephant thing now
Me too...
it does look like an elephant
i hate elephant thing
It is more like an octopus than an elephant.
I say it because of the cloud of ink ( with chemical reagents) that the Octopus-elephant threw to stun " grasshopser".
Yay! Long live weird pig bug!
Hola❤❤❤
:3
I thought it was a caterpillar for a second
thegirlcriedfashion the elephant thing was cute too..
And didnt hurt either first anesthesia then kill how thoughtful..
that was freaking amazing-!!!!
Who would ever try to hurt that cute little green caterpillar thing it’s adorabale
Adorabale. Noice.

You
This is so freakin' helpful, I actually can't thank you enough! 8 months: 4 learning, 4 making. Awesome. To see what's possible in the time frame, to devise a goal for self directed learning, to get a sense of how different courses, colleges, & tutors approach the same material, this is so useful for all of that and you've given all the pertinent information up front and explained it so well. Thank you!!

I would like that little gray Predator to be my pet. 😀
It would feast on you
nhoodjazz No it wouldn't!😤
Beautiful. The music is of other planet. A lot of good details 👌👏
GREAT.... that was awesome....thanks. I liked the sounds also.
Liked it a lot. Short but sweet story. The music? Not so much. Too tech for a natural environment 7/10.
I liked the tech. It brought a sense of unease and disorder to the piece. Sort of like the music in Trigun.
what kind of extinct animals are they

Poor elephant thing, he put the bug to sleep, he opened his jaw because he would sing a sleeping music 😭
@Ryan Crepeau you are not so smart :/ it was a joke dude
This is just like an alien world!!! Amazing!
Just like that, some of us, blessed out of our socks, don't even know how close we were...

The rock must have been a guardian for the little gies
Great imagination around the concept of symbiosis! I was of course waiting for elephant guy getting nutrition from green guys poop or something.. So I loved Rock thing jumping in.. basically protecting Greene as lures for his dinner. ; )
Beautiful art and graphic. I love it😍😍😍
tf lol I thought that was a baby elephant. then I saw the extra stuff by the trunks. then the purple mist, O.o and then the teeth in the trunk.
elephants don't have teeth in their trunks!!! dear God.
but good thing that rock thingy ate it. poor green bug
+Chel X THE TRUNK TEETH SCARED ME
+Sarah Kogan Oh shit, didn't see that the first two times I watched it
Looks Like Spore :-P
That's amazing. First you think there a symbiotic relationship between the elephant-thing and the green-critter. Then the elephant-thing is about to eat the green-critter and the rock-giant eat the elephant-thing. So unexpected!
How cute n cold. Its like " dont worry i'll eat him for u"
Nice work u must be so proud of yourself. Awesome talent.
Alright, let's see where the actual symbiotic stuff is. I assume that Cambolesteus in the background is in a symbiotic relationship with the Grublings. The Cambolesteus protects the Grublings from predators and the Grublings probably lead predators to the Cambolesteus so he can eat 'em. That probably doesn't make any sense, but whatever.
I think the green dudes eat the grass of the rock dude and clean him and in return the rock dude protects them
@@themasterofstuff1416 Huh. Y'know, you have a point.
@@pifflesomepuffnadder855 yes I do
Where does it take place, an alien planet.

Everything is fantastic. I can't believe that it is a product of 8 months Maya program, it's amazing.
Well this is fascinating. I need more!
Thats really cute :3
Green guy: plays ded
Elephant Guy: tries tô eat him but got eaten
Rock Guy: victory Royale
Green guy: epic
Really awesome thank you so much for sharing 💖
I love your show.plz make more and who knows it meet be on air
Elephant is cute .. until it reveal its jaw.
The rock thing is an iron golem and the green thing is a villager and the elephant thing is me with no armor in minecraft
I legitimately thought this was a past nightmare and not actually something I watched, super interesting coming across it again.
Stange, sound track is awsome, animation too, great job.
So strange yet so cool
Alien creatures maybe in the future?
aw dude that was simply great. this video made me feel so strange it's so weird I love it!

And he became a snack🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@puglife7000 you are.
@@raidersmajr4131 ?
Nah, don’t feel bad for him. He tried sneaking up on the creature and gassed him so he could eat him alive.
What a fascinating world, would love to get some lore about it.
Nice super wonderful excellent
and that friends is why you shouldn't bully.
moral: bully people in minecraft, and get some insane karma
Wow wonderful liked it 👌👍👏
I see the symbiosis here! the big gigantic rock monster protects the small thingies!
Don't say that green thing wasn't cute and don't say those grey things aren't super ugly
ur right..😸😸
I stopped caring about the elephant thing after it revealed those teeth lmao.
