It took less than 2 minutes to make me feel saddened about a fictional dinosaur from millions of years ago. And the visual effects? Well done. Amazingly well done.
@JeffreyJefferson And? We didn't suffer as much as the dinosaurs, our whole race burned alive? Nope. Besides. It's NOT THE SAME. We're talking about extinction, not danger.
The thing I find so beautiful about this is that, in its last moments, it understood it all- it understood what was about to happen, and it made one last choice- one last experience. It chose to be a participant instead of a passenger, and I think that's incredible.
This made me feel even more sad about how dinosaurs went out. The way the Citipati accepted its fate and the strong message behind it. Also, the production quality is insane. The music, the close ups, the attention to detail. Everything. Absolute perfection.
no, he live, but he live in a Different body that was changing over the years. He live, Fighting and winning against the adversities of change. He live, Adapting to the different realms of the new world and thus embodying many forms. He live, as the Phoenix lived, reborned into something new, the future of dinosaurs, birds in all their forms. He live, knowing that in the botton of all his forms, he is still a dinosaur.
My best interpretation is that Citipati is witnessing the end of the dinosaurs, but through his near death experience he gets to see the universe itself and how it works, and realizing the meteor is not the end of the world but the beginning of something much bigger, Citipati choses to run towards the end of the world to start a brand new journey, and leave the old world he knew behind.
It's interesting to think that a dinosaur would have a level of awareness capable of imagining his place in the universe . But we don't know what we don't know, do we.
Thanks :) - while the movie itself was mastered in 2K, there is in fact a full stereoscopic 3D version which was produced alongside the regular 2D release...
In my opinion it seems to be a story about death acceptance; in the dinosaur's own dream-like vision it runs towards the approaching flame, embraces it, and is for a moment reborn as a phoenix from the ashes.
Just like a phoenix rebirths from fire, the citipati will be reborn as the birds we see today. That's explaining evolution in a much more emotional and exciting way.
Of all the dinosaur media I’ve watched, this is the one that takes the cake. The music, the emotional scenes, the animation, the story, and the ending… They’ve left a real big impression on me.
Godamnit, I can never escape the tears when it comes to an extinction event involving the dinosaurs. Especially one as personal as this. It makes it even more personal for me since I used to play a game called “Dino Dominion” where my first SSR dinosaur was an albino citipati, which is also how I came to know the dinosaur. Those were the days…
I feel you man it's good to see someone respecting these magnificent creatures I mean humans are destroying this planet. Humans also: Thank god those ugly dinosaurs died
I read the "jumping into flames" bit as the dino allegorically becoming what the genus would become in generations hence - birds.Excellent little short! And Excellent animation!
absolute masterpiece. i know its not real i know its an animation, but still, your work makes me crying my eyes out. absolute MASTERPIECE!!! i know i said it but im saying that again!!!
nobody talking about the fact that this is a STUDENTS project?? I mean holy shit, I'm currently in my master and I can't believe how professional this is. Meanwhile I feel like I didn't contribute anything to this world lol
its the Filmakademie, the best german/european Animation school - some of the students are already quite professional when they come there, so the standard is crazy high
That was an amazing production. I had to digest what I had seen. The symbolism used in it was thoughtful and inspiring. I loved the transition to the phoenix and then back to the egg at the end was beautifully done. I love that the Oviraptor was almost running to its future instead instead of running from the fear of the incoming firestorm.
Oh wow! It took me a couple of seconds before I could even start formulating my thoughts on this, so impactful was it. Not just in terms of the visuals, which includes loads of excellently executed visual and cinematic effects, but also the symbolism and continuous scale shifts. Very impressive, and probably the best I've seen come onto this channel yet!
I don’t know if this is a quote from history, but I think this quote right here(I think I made) represents the ending of Citipati.... “To run from danger, is to be forgotten, but to run towards it, THAT, is always remembered.”
No-one gonna give props for the camera man surviving millions of years to get us this? The fact that this copy+paste comment got so many likes disappoints me
It's a melancholy kind of feeling I got. Looking at the day it was posted my darling bird passed away the night of Dec.30th and bringing myself up to get him cremated was January 1st. He was such a big fighter for such a tiny bird. He fought hard but it was tiring on him. This was a perfect video to stumble on and shed some tears that have been built up since that day. Thank you. And bravo.
In my honest opinion,citipati is one of my favourite dinosaurs.this just makes me cry because of how amazing it is.it is very realistic.its like I’m experiencing it.i hope you make a part 2 of this.
This is actually stunning because,if you look at anything close enough, you’ll realizes there’s just a bigger or smaller version of that in our universe. Like a animal cell splitting acts the same way as a planet getting split in half from whatever caused it. This video is amazing and has so much more meaning than we might even realize!

You gave it awareness. You gave it life. You gave us hope to remember that these beings once had a time, like us, that still continues in other forms... Simply impactful! Great work, on all levels, with this production. Thank you.

not-so-fun-fact: fire is usually regarded as the worst way to die, but it's only excruciating for the first few seconds. once your nerves burn away, it's relatively painless. Some who survive being badly burned report no pain at all until a few hours later. Those watching usually react worse than the person burning to death.

I thought this was going to be a cool animation of an oviraptor being eaten because I simply searched "dinosaur animation." Truly beautiful and I ended up crying hard unexpectedly as I felt my fear of death become brought up. It was so sad seeing how it ended in a dream, but it was so needed and true. Rest in peace little guy
The whole time I was mesmorized and completely caught up in the brilliance of the effects, the music and the sounds. Truly an amazing piece of work. I didn't need dialogue or narration to tell me what was going on. An oviraptor casually surviving only to suddenly have his whole life shatter in the blink of an eye with the asteroid impact until he dreams his last moments right after he sucumbs to his injuries, starvation and exhaustion. Beautiful work!
For a moment he knew..he was connected to the universe...he knew everything and he knew that his end would give rise to something greater ...so he knew...and he chose to be a participant in the event rather than just be an onlooker..to be born again as something greater...

The whole point of the story was acceptance of death and that it wasn't truly the end. Well the dinosaurs current life was coming to a end it knew that its decedents and perhaps its own self will live on. It throwing itself into the blast wave instead of running away hinted it was willing to push forward and the ghostly image of a bird from the dinosaur showed that its decedents would rise from the ashes as modern birds, and perhaps its next life as well.
Trying to compare this to a documentary (and vice versa) is futile because these things have two completely different goals in what they’re doing. Documentaries aim to be more upfront in educating their audience about things and being factual, this is doing none of that because it’s not intended to function as a documentary. it’s conveying a story through both auditory and visual means, it’s like trying to compare an apple to an orange
@@murphy1825 birds aren't simply related to dinosaurs. Crocodiles are only related to dinosaurs. Birds are dinosaurs. I'm not sure what fighting has anything to do with it. Birds and mammals existed long before any tyrannosaurid, doesn't mean theid fight them

Tears filled my eyes the moment the Citipati started running toward the impact...This was such a beautiful piece of art. I appreciate this beyond words.
The poor little thing😢 It was so brutal yet so beautiful. The only question I have is this, if the algorithm knows my preferences, not to say my taste, why it only shows this to me now? Get a job YT algorithm.
Outstanding work - the makers of this should really go all out and make more feature length stories, and I'm glad they've helped in drawing attention to species like Citipati. Great storytelling! Looking forward to more!
bloody beautiful, I love how it evolves into a pheonix at the end, rising from the ashes of the extinction. Bloody epic. You cant help but feel bad for the creatures that would have witnessed and gone through and died in these extinction events, it would have probably been horrible, and the cries of other animals would be everywhere, wouldnt be a good time. But, its life I guess, nature has to continue and be able to diversify again so life can keep going onto the next era, out of destruction comes life, just like a pheonix. And this also just shows that you can have beautifully rendered and animated prehistoric creatures and tell amazing stories without some goofy kidy dialogue or narration over it
Thanks:) I actually saw WWD 2013 in cinemas during the conceptual stage, alone... That experience became the ultimate deterrent not to go this route :D
Well done! I was almost in tears when the larger dinosaur was dying just after it killed breakfast. The animation was extremely realistic and the story line is brilliant.

@@eclipsefx Anyways in most languages when talking about animals “his” doesn’t mean it’s male. So it’s difficult for some of us to translate, as saying “its” is like treating them like an object

No harm done - consider it more as sth mentioned trivial rather than a direct response, and I apologize if it potentially sounded like there was some snark involved. :)
Why am I crying over a CGI Oviraptor? This was an amazing short film! 😱
I thought this was going to be a cool animation of an oviraptor being eaten because I simply searched "dinosaur animation." Truly beautiful and I ended up crying hard unexpectedly as I felt my fear of death become brought up. It was so sad seeing how it ended in a dream, but it was so needed and true. Rest in peace little guy
The whole time I was mesmorized and completely caught up in the brilliance of the effects, the music and the sounds. Truly an amazing piece of work. I didn't need dialogue or narration to tell me what was going on. An oviraptor casually surviving only to suddenly have his whole life shatter in the blink of an eye with the asteroid impact until he dreams his last moments right after he sucumbs to his injuries, starvation and exhaustion. Beautiful work!
An oviraptorid should have more feathers. But apart of it everything is incredible! Well done!
Runt maybe?
His hands would also not be held like that. All the accurate information we have on dinosaurs today, and they still managed to mess it up lol.
Creative expression man, by no means a doco
Feathers are pretty hard to animate.
@@xTheForgottenOnexx
The hands look pretty accurate to me, what's the problem with them?
Great, now i am emotionally attached to an oviraptor, thank you.
You're welcome.
Citipati
we need more dinosaur media like this
Beautifully done and brought me to tears
Cry baby

This is beautiful
Pigeon Fowl looks like I’ve found you here too

thanks :)
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊 This Is The Best Project I've ever Seen!!!!!!!!! Bravo ,my man. Bravo!!!!!!!!!!! That's what I called a MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!!
thanks :)
It looked like a Phoenix in that scene. Like rebirth into something new
I think it foreshadows birds coming after dinosaurs
@Dustin Blais . And Citipati went extinct 5 million years before the meteorite impact.
For a moment he knew..he was connected to the universe...he knew everything and he knew that his end would give rise to something greater ...so he knew...and he chose to be a participant in the event rather than just be an onlooker..to be born again as something greater...
@@arenamaster1485good point
@@erikhamannno, he live, but he live in a Different body that was changing over the years.
He live, Fighting and winning against the adversities of change.
He live, Adapting to the different realms of the new world and thus embodying many forms.
He live, as the Phoenix lived, reborned into something new, the future of dinosaurs, birds in all their forms.
He live, knowing that in the botton of all his forms, he is still a dinosaur.
To imagine what they went through for them to become extinct is so sad. This made me cry so deeply, I loved this video.
Sally Maree they aren’t extinct...
@@finscontingencyplan7005 The are extinct...what are you talking about?
Antlerz no they aren’t lol, birds are extant dinosaurs
@@syl62 Birds are a type of dinosaur, so no, they aren't extinct
The whole point of the story was acceptance of death and that it wasn't truly the end. Well the dinosaurs current life was coming to a end it knew that its decedents and perhaps its own self will live on. It throwing itself into the blast wave instead of running away hinted it was willing to push forward and the ghostly image of a bird from the dinosaur showed that its decedents would rise from the ashes as modern birds, and perhaps its next life as well.
This is still the best transition I have ever seen!! Wonderful story telling and beautiful animation!
Still better than the Discovery documentaries
When Dinosaurs Roamed America was good though.
Not all of them lol. When Dinosaurs Roamed America and Dinosaur Planet are better than this.
Trying to compare this to a documentary (and vice versa) is futile because these things have two completely different goals in what they’re doing. Documentaries aim to be more upfront in educating their audience about things and being factual, this is doing none of that because it’s not intended to function as a documentary. it’s conveying a story through both auditory and visual means, it’s like trying to compare an apple to an orange
Especially Dinosaur Revolution
CGI and animation is fast becoming THE art form of the 21st Century.This short is an amazing example.
It’s so crazy to think that these things actually existed at some point
yes and some still do. Birds are flying dinosaurs, just how bats are flying mammals
@@trvth1s I mean, birds are more than likely related to dinosaurs. You probably wouldn't see pigeons fighting a tyrannosaurus
@@murphy1825 birds aren't simply related to dinosaurs. Crocodiles are only related to dinosaurs.
Birds are dinosaurs.
I'm not sure what fighting has anything to do with it. Birds and mammals existed long before any tyrannosaurid, doesn't mean theid fight them
@@realoceanic1737 birds are literally flying dinosaurs. When scientists say "nonavian dinosaurs", they are literally saying "not capable of flight dinosaurs" which means all non bird dinosaurs
@@trvth1s so you saying some dinosaurs had feathers
It seems that you must first point out that is inaccurate in order to be able to say that you liked it.
MASTERPIECE!!!
Dinosaurs had it rough, man.
Dinosaurs still live till now....birds are classified as dinosauria.....don't be too sad...god had to erase dinosaurs so humans won't have any risky beginnings
dinosaurs didn't build churches that's why a giant meteor struck earth

This movie moves me everything I view it. Thank you everyone for all your hard work. It's amazing . I have it saved and watch often.
Perfectly balanced
As all things should be
Hello THANOS
This puts a smile on my face.
*_„Life finds a way“_*
_Acept for this guy..._
Life found a way for this guy too. A winged reptile came out from his ashes to give us new life. His kind were reborn as birds.
How come he ran towards it and not away from it tho 🤔
@@sr.moralesbeal7775 He was accepting death knowing it was better up there.
Hyper Death ohhh IgHt ight
This is a Student PROJECT?? Its beautiful
Very trur
I broke up with my boyfriend of five years last week and this made me cry way more. The extinction of the nonavian dinosaurs is such a tragedy.
Pity too the non-mammalian synapsids.
Your boyfriend must've been a right old dinosaur to warrant less tears than this
my jaw has been dislocated. this is a masterpiece.
amazing story,
but i gotta say
the background of the credits were amazing too
I just love how much emotion and appreciation as put toward such an underrated and unknown dinosaur and just how incredible they can be
Ikr?!
Tears filled my eyes the moment the Citipati started running toward the impact...This was such a beautiful piece of art. I appreciate this beyond words.
This is beautiful and sad 😢❤️.
The end of their world mark a new beginning for us.
I im cry in bed
The poor little thing😢 It was so brutal yet so beautiful.
The only question I have is this, if the algorithm knows my preferences, not to say my taste, why it only shows this to me now? Get a job YT algorithm.
Outstanding work - the makers of this should really go all out and make more feature length stories, and I'm glad they've helped in drawing attention to species like Citipati. Great storytelling! Looking forward to more!
Only made it half way before I could not take seeing the little fella suffer anymore well done.
This made me cry. A powerful story. There is a dinosaur in all of us.
There's a tiny dinosaur inside all of us?!?
This is why I put all my Oviraptors in an obelisk after I tamed them on my solo Ark
Yep
O my god an ark player yay there are more of us
We need e g g s
yes my boi
Let us form a tribe.
bloody beautiful, I love how it evolves into a pheonix at the end, rising from the ashes of the extinction. Bloody epic. You cant help but feel bad for the creatures that would have witnessed and gone through and died in these extinction events, it would have probably been horrible, and the cries of other animals would be everywhere, wouldnt be a good time. But, its life I guess, nature has to continue and be able to diversify again so life can keep going onto the next era, out of destruction comes life, just like a pheonix.
And this also just shows that you can have beautifully rendered and animated prehistoric creatures and tell amazing stories without some goofy kidy dialogue or narration over it
Thanks:)
I actually saw WWD 2013 in cinemas during the conceptual stage, alone... That experience became the ultimate deterrent not to go this route :D
Well done! I was almost in tears when the larger dinosaur was dying just after it killed breakfast. The animation was extremely realistic and the story line is brilliant. Watched it twice as soon as I noticed it. I’d love to see more like this. I gather it’s done by students! Give them an A+++. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
