Hey everyone! This short film was created as my sophomore film for university. It's about two minutes, and my first full personal project in Maya. Hope you enjoy it! Also, if you're interested in more of what I'm up to, make sure to follow me on Twitter! twitter.com/hxx_3D
@XTRAordinaryZG Yes, that is exactly what they intended to mean. Right when I saw the "For Display Only", I was like, "Wait, I bet sword is for display only too." You'd think the bow and arrow would be too, but I guess even a toy bow could do what she did.
I love that after Zelda parry's link he's got a wild look in his eyes like he's back in Hyrule fields fighting monsters and how he had to shake his head to calm himself.
@@JordanLeBlanc3DMaybe you could make a Whatif Series Where Zelda Get Link to Teach her How To Defend herself and Survive in the Wild after They Defeated Calamity Ganon.. I'm honestly surprised.They're already not married considering Tears of kingdom takes place six years after Breath of the Wild And they live in the same house.. Which is not really appropriate Unless they are a married couple. Again you did excellent on the animation.. I like the show but don't tell Type of Series where Dialoge Is not needed.
I'm curious as to how the Twilight Bow got there, didn't only Twilight Zelda use it against Ganonforf and I guess when Twilight Link was summoned to Wild Link's deep sea issues in his Hyrule, he must have had it on him.. did the Queen let him have it?
THIS IS INCREDIBLE. First off I absolutely adore the models you used, but everything here is so fluid, expressive, and full of life. This is fantastic stuff
First thought I had when Zelda grabbed the bow was "oh my god she's sending Link into the Shrine if Resurrection personally", glad to see that it turned out different. Dumb Uni kids is the peak aesthetic, gratz on the project!
This animation was just so light and bouncy, I’m so used to seeing stiff characters with barely any expressions- but this was just plain fantastic! Really a step above normal UA-cam animations
Thanks a ton that means a lot! I really enjoyed getting out of my comfort zone with this project by making the characters more bouncy and expressive. Felt like I learned a lot.
Yea idk what it is with a lot of 3D animation, it often feels like it was made by a programmer or something, not someone with knowledge of animation lol
If Dreamworks made a Zelda game, it would look similar to this. The expressions and camera angles are iconic. I'd happily watch a series / play a full game with this quality.
Funny enough, Nintendo was actually pitched a Zelda movie idea from Imagi Studio, the same company that made the first CGI TMNT movie. Nintendo turned it down, but funnily enough the design for the sword Ganondorf used in the pitch trailer became Demise's sword in Skyward Sword. The energy in this reminds me a bit of that, but with a more traditional character design than what Imagi used.
@@JordanLeBlanc3D I have it because I'm on my way to recreate the box art by making an accurate Link and finding back the place that was used as a reference for the cover artwork. Pretty fun to do
Man.... This animation hit me so hard!! Right in the nostalgic dude, even when they're not the same animator, the animation give that sweet vibe of "Racing for Rupees" Those kinda of animation back in 2016/2015 don't remeber too well, gosh this animation is so amazing!!!
This really makes me wish Nintendo put more of these kind of cutscenes in their zelda games, actually, just give us a Zelda an animated series :) everything was so incredibly well done
As much as I'd love a Zelda animated series, I think Link's status as a blank slate in the games would result in them drastically rewriting him with some kind of really off personality for a series.
@@channelwithout Not necessarily. Link is known for being a blank slate yes, but keep in mind that every Link is different. That means that there's no rewriting involved if Link was a little bit more expressive on the big screen.
Cel Shading animation like this, arcane, spiderverse, etc are all top tier animation. Pixar's animation is also really good, but they are more on the realistic side while Cel Shading is on the creative side, I prefer this style, it's just so unique and expressive. This is really good.
God, this warms my heart as a Zelda fan. I remember reading something about this animation and when I came across it, I was more then pleasantly surprised at how good this was. Words can only do so much justice to describe this masterpiece and the creativity on display. Excellent job.
I'd say Primal does this pretty well. Granted side characters do speak, and Spear does vocalize himself non verbally often, but it does a pretty good showcase of the show not tell sort of writing
I actually really like their dynamic in this, almost being portrayed as mischievous siblings rather than romantic interests to one another. It would be interesting to have a game that portrayed them that way
The amount of small detail work, the overall movement being as liveful as it seemingly can be... This is some professional work right here, and I'm loving it.
This took my breath away-pun fully intended-you did a stellar job animating this, it's just so fluid and full of life. Incredible work, I look forward to seeing what else you put out.
Soo good, a lot of personality in the movements, clever story and good setting. Also nice that it's a silent short is, as I feel this deserves pro voice acting, so it's better to have nothing than something that'll break the immersion. This does feel professional.
Same basically. I think seeing the mouths move as though they're talking, while not having voice acting, feels a bit jarring. But beyond that the animation is amazing to watch, and I'd argue it's studio-level quality
@@wapandaforever242 That did happen but it was completely one sided. Link pretty much did his own thing and didn't consider her a rival for anything, just someone to protect (as always).
This feels like an official Nintendo video! So crisp and clean. I'm stunned that this was a university project. Keep this up, you guys are bound for something big!
The quality of the character animation here is on par with some Overwatch shorts imo. This is _really_ good, and I'm looking forward to your future in the animation industry!
If you like this style, you should check out RWBY - the first 3 seasons were done in Poser Pro and they look pretty janky by comparison, but season 4 and onward are done in Maya and they are GORGEOUS.
IT’S SO CRISP AND CLEAN AND SMOOTH. -deep breath- god I wish I could be chill about this but it’s so pretty. PLEASE NEVER STOP ANIMATING YOU ARE A GOD.
This is absolutely incredible! The models, the sound design, the camera angles, the expressions, oh my god I’m gasming all over the place!! It’s such an impressive video I can hardly believe this is by 1 person and not a well-developed team!!
I love everything about this from the rendering to the fluid movements and facial expressions! I really see the work put into this!! Also love that Link just decides to cheat and steal the shield in the beginning and Zelda goes right after him. Two can play this game! 🤣 This whole video is awesome!
I love it. Something about how they express themselves and how they move for whatever reason reminds me of like… dreamworks films and the like. For whatever reason how to train your dragon in specific pops into mind. I also love how Zelda’s first reaction was murder
This is phenomenal, the animation feels so original and visually pleasing. I have no idea who you are, but I hope you enjoyed making this and want to make more.
Okay, allow me to confess. I had my doubts when I clicked on your channel and saw the Team Fortress 2 animations though the thumbnail of this video looked good so I thought that I might be wrong. Glad to see that you really and truly are one of the best animators I've ever seen on this platform, like Zelda and Link both remind me of Hiccup and Astrid from the first How To Train Your Dragon movie, and that's so nostalgic for me! The shield, both of their expressions, the storytelling and the plot twist, it all feels so good! This is truly a great little animation!
@@flamingrubys11 Nothing much, Fawful's Minion, Designing For and other TF2 UA-camrs have sold me on that. It's just that SFM animators don't necessarily have the straightest track record when it comes to making great, funny and/or appropriate content, in my experience. I truly do honestly hope that Valve actually pays some level of attention and respect aside from letting some developers make the occasional bug fix every now and again, I am in that camp. It's just that Team Fortress isn't my cup of tea.

I love how Maya renders BotW models, for real. You could makeva series from this stuff
How long did this take to make?
Perhaps you can settle an argument for me, is LeBlanc pronounced 'luh blahn' or 'luh blonk'?
Fantastic work by the way
That is awesome! I love the style and the way link and zelda act. Great work ❤
Man, that's amazing! Can't believe you made it on your own. I can feel the effort put into this. Congratulations!
I love how link was like "doesn't matter I got something much cooler" and it immediately breaks
Breath of the Wild basically.
But the master sword doesnt break it permanently@@k0ks3nw4i
Seems legit
I love that he broke the sword at the end, it’s such a endearing characteristic of this incarnation of Link by this point.
But the Sword Hilt and the blade separated 😅
@@MorrisPXG its broken is it not

Oh, I get it, cuz Link can't speak. 🤣
Haven't heard that one before 😐

Personally I believe it could have used a few more hyaas!
Dude, the micro expressions were off the charts, and just oozed personality. Bravo, 10/10
Agreed
I thought they were rather a lot
Yup. Could easily get dubbed by a third party. I love it.
The quality is just incredibly high. Just imagine the potential.
A perfect representation of weapon degradation in Breath of The Wild.
Fr. 😂
Actually lol.
I'm so happy they fixed that in ToTK
Breath of the Wild also had cheap replicas of high grade weapons. The Zora ritual spear for example (I forget what they're called).
Zelda with bow: "I'll use this to knock the shield out of his hands!"
Link with sword: "If god has wanted you to live he would not have created me!"
*Can confirm God did not want that shield in particular to live, something about it trying to violate the laws of the universe or the like.*
is that a soldier reference?!

Just love how much energy radiates in the movements and expressions. This was a great find for today. Subscribing is a must!
Thanks so much! Hope you enjoy whatever I make next
In that respect, it kind of reminds me of watching stuff like the Dragon Prince or Avatar.
Ideally, animation should be expressive and exaggerated. It's kind of at its core and is even one of the rules of it haha
It would be great if it were an anime, i would love to animations like these in a Zelda anime to be honest.

Again you did excellent on the animation.. I like the show but don't tell Type of Series where Dialoge Is not needed.
I love how the twilight bow and master sword were just hanging around randomly in the library
The sword broke after a single hit to a display only shield, likely also just a display sword, the bow, I'm not sure.
I'm curious as to how the Twilight Bow got there, didn't only Twilight Zelda use it against Ganonforf and I guess when Twilight Link was summoned to Wild Link's deep sea issues in his Hyrule, he must have had it on him.. did the Queen let him have it?
P sure theyre just displays, considering they played around with it, no way they would risk it
@@Narthyst Fair enough, but it can lead to theories about Links crossing into other timelines
@@_Xerota_ the arrow bounces off so it was also a display only model

@@JordanLeBlanc3D There's an upcoming project? I can't wait to see it because it might also be good like this.
I
this was an awesome video, but i don't recommend making the rims of the eyes red or as large eyes. even then, great job bc this was amazing
First thought I had when Zelda grabbed the bow was "oh my god she's sending Link into the Shrine if Resurrection personally", glad to see that it turned out different.
Dumb Uni kids is the peak aesthetic, gratz on the project!
Thanks, glad you liked it! And yeah haha Zelda is a bit more compassionate than Link
I thought they were training when she picked up the bow and arrow but I'm grateful for the plot twist nonetheless!
When I saw Link grab the Master Sword I was about ready to call them a hacker! I have never once got the Master Sword within 2min of gameplay!
Does anyone wanna talk about how this guy literally managed to call what Link's new tunic would look like in TotK? Insane.
It’s the same as his look in the first teaser that dropped in June 2019.
Still, good call on the creator's part to follow the teaser, rather than breath of the wild (or the Shirtless Barbarian look we all adore.)
He just changed the undershirt of the Hylian Tunic with the Champions tunic undershirt, and boom you essentially the ToTK champions leathers.
I love how expressive Link and Zelda’s face is.
ok, the ending got me. the whole short was enjoyable and felt lively. great work!
I audibly laughed at the ending.
This is probably the most detailed 3D Zelda animation I've seen ever. You've got some raw talent herw.
Dont forget about MajorLink
idk, WoozySFM and Fugtrup have pretty... "detailed" Zelda animations
@@AnalogTeek hahahahahaha.... yeah
This right herw is a quality comment.

@@pickledpeas7649 But more violent.

Love how expressive the characters look, you can really tell what they’re thinking even though no dialogue happened!
This is a masterpiece! Very well done!
Amazing!

@Auran Crash the quality and polish of the animation itself is extremely hard to achieve man
So cute!

The emotion conveyed in this is breathtaking, I strive to animate this well

@@channelwithout Not necessarily. Link is known for being a blank slate yes, but keep in mind that every Link is different. That means that there's no rewriting involved if Link was a little bit more expressive on the big screen.

The fact that Zelda is right handed and link was left handed
My favorite quote from Link in this was ".........". A true poet. This was beautiful!!

Link and Zelda having a rivalry is pretty dang interesting. It'd be interesting if there were spin off games that explored that (aside from Smash).
That be cool, i can easily see a game were two keep trying to one up each other everytime they meet
Actually makes sense as in Age of Calamity wasent Zelda like jealous of Link of all that he accomplished while she couldn't awaken her sealing power?
@@wapandaforever242 That did happen but it was completely one sided. Link pretty much did his own thing and didn't consider her a rival for anything, just someone to protect (as always).
They had a rivalry for a long time in the cartoon : "Excuuuuuuuuuse me, princess!"
@@MrSirKirby Yeah, but Nintendo sadly never acknowledges that or the CDI stuff.
This animation is insanely beautiful.
Such a great animation. The dynamic movement, weight behind things, and the expressive body language makes this so good. Love it.
honestly would watch a slice-of-life zelda show like this. just life in the castle, vibing
That was so damn heartwarming. I can't even say what it reminded me of, but there was a kind of...melancholy nostalgic wonder, there.
Thanks for that.
Wow that's a super unique compliment thank you so much! Glad I could create that feeling for you.
Every beat of this story was beyond hilarious. Such perfect comedic timing!
So much characteristic from these two without a word spoken, this is amazing
I love the tiny quick detail of seeing zeldas shadow right before she grabs the shield 00:15
Detailed facial expressions very nice movement high quality animation 10 out of 10
Legend of Zelda series like this when?
Everything is so good about this, the expressions, the atmosphere and the character's character.
Quite the well made animation.
And, at least to me, this is how it feels using any weapon in Breath of the Wild. Just one use, and boom, it's dust.
I hated how there was no repair system, some of those weapons were really hard to get.
I love how expressive and animated this is! I also really like how it has a look inspired by BOTW but does it's own thing to look different. Good job!
Links voice is so accurate in this
I love their exaggerated reactions to everything.
I love the fact they played Rock Paper Scissors to decide that’s how every debate should work Lmao
