- This is a scene from The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, read by Nick Podehl.
Purely fan made for practice and teaching
Intro music- harry potter- A New Beginning (Alexandre Desplat)
[for me, audio/music is much more powerful than images. while creating this, I made sure to surround myself with specific songs that matched the mood I was going for. super important when creating images. your headspace can change completely from one song to another]

Check out how I made this video here- ua-cam.com/video/ev3B5lDzilY/v-deo.html
Ethan Becker THIS has so much potential!
Where is the beard, worm.
“Student loans: the fantasy novel.”
Ha. I wasn't going to go there but, he does have a point
I would be more than willing to do the audio editing.
I've said it once and I'll say it as many times as it takes. Kingkiller Chronicles doesn't need a live action adaptation, it needs to be animated and this is just prove! Excellent work!
For sure, when I read through it all I could picture was more animated style of figures and characters, it has some quirky ones that just wouldn't work with live actors or scenes. Not to mention that Kvothe feels way more like an anime protagonist even, and that's not saying it like an insult, he still has more depth than most others.
It would just need to be handled with such delicate care... There's so much nuance to these books and the writing is so gorgeous, none of that can be lost. I just don't know if I could handle another of my favorite series being butchered... I'm looking at you Eragon.
Give it to the Castlevania animators. Or Studio Ghibli!
No it just needs to be finished
yeah that would be crazy anime amazing world amazing characters i just wanna see as a anime serie
Okay... I saw this video when it came out several months ago. Thought it was awesome and since I didn't understand the context, I moved on. A week ago, I started reading The Name of the Wind, and didn't put it together until I got to this part in the book and was like "Hold up... I've "seen" this before"!! A quick UA-cam search later, and I'm a subscriber! This is dope AF!! Awesome work... again!!
what a ride!
Just read again the part where Kvothe played himself to blood and sleep on this very luth.
There are times when you need to listen to death threats.
I was in the similar situation! I started reading the book, and one of my friends found and sent me this animation. I only got to this part now, so it feels even more amazing!
The exact same thing happened to me haha
If you do the whole series. I guess you would still be faster than Patrick Rothfuss
@@JhonFlynn sry for that, Bro
Why is this so true... T_T
This..it just.. It just isn't fair... what has it been now? A decade?
Just like Game of Thrones
*john cena intro plays* so true
Agent.Ste p much
Wow. Love how the camera angle, sound, music etc lends gravitas to the scene. In the books we know why 'The Breaking of the Lute' is a big deal through context and theme, but here, out of context and without 1k pages to back us up, the lute hitting the cobble stones still feels like heartbreak. “my lute, my tangible soul”. Indeed.
I've never read or even heard of the Kingkiller series until now but you, my good sir, have me absolutely sold.
Please go read it, it's a very well crafted story with a very well crafted world and magic system. One of my favourite books ever!
You have much joy and pain ahead of you! It is the best.
It’s definitely worth the read but I will warn you that it’s been 8 years since the second book came out and the third one still hasn’t been released so learn to be patient. Buts seriously. All of my favorite quotes are from this series
The sound on this video is actually from the audiobook by Narator Nick Podehl
A good series, but prepared to be frustrated when you finish the 2nd book and the next one is nowhere in sight. Been 6 years already
This animation style reminds me of _Voltron_ and _The Legend of Korra_ .
He worked on voltron
@@roseclouds5838 Oh, that would make sense. :)
He was a revisionist on Voltron
Well time to backtrack violently then
@@jellyfish0311 Haha. Though it wasn't the animation that caused those shows to turn out awful; it was the writing. Better hope this guy has a good writing team on board for any future projects.
This artstyle reminds me so much of Legend Of Korra/Voltron. Also, I WOULD LIKE MORE OF THIS PLEASE.
OTAKUGIRL55 I think it’s the perfect art style for the series. They should add in a little Cowboy Bebop moodiness too
Yea it does look like Studio Mir
YES
Reminds me of The Dragon Prince tbh
Ambrose kind of even looked like Lotor!
This was absolutely amazing!
Ambrose: *breaks lute*
Kvothe: FUS RO DAH!
I was an adventurer like you once
Then I jumped of a tower ,because a teacher asked me to Xd
Someone stole your sweet roll?
@@eliasmamoe8034 then i was hit by a lute in the knee
Actually Kvothe says Averledsi but hey man not everyone is a die hard virgin
Almost gives me goosebumps to see these character portrayed. Well done. Picked a great scene too.
Had the hardest goosebumps of my life. so intense
So... Kickstarter to make this happen? Cause I would give you all the monies.
There is actually gonna be a tv show. I'm pretty sure its unrelated to this animation.
I too have monies to give.
I too have the monies. The TV show will take place before the plot of the books. This Kickstarter could really work.
Money in your face. Just do it.
I've never given to a kickstarter before in my life but I'd give 10 just to see a pilot episode made
Love this and all, but the coffin as a lute case had me in tears lmao
Elijah Elkwood ha cause he’s dead I get it. I miss his dad
@@abluetale1016 at this point in the books, it is said that kvothe's case is an old, badly put together one, just like his lute. kvothe has to fill it up with cloth and shit to keep his instrument from being damaged all the time, and only one of the locks was intact, another had been changed, and at some moint he enven used string to keep it shut
I just listened to the first audiobook a few weeks ago and am almost finished with the second, and for some reason, I envisioned his lute case as a coffin shape anyway, but I'm not sure why... Bent lamination in woodworking wouldn't be impossible in the setting Rothfuss created, but it would be impractical for something like an instrument case, especially in a world where people will carry lots of boxish containers on long trips. Shapes with edges can be controlled more easily, tied down more firmly, and are less prone to slipping out of lashings.
This is fucking awesome! I would much prefer the movie to be done in a animated series just like this. As long as they dont disneyfy it too much.
Adam Reynoso agreed
Yeah unfortunately everything is Disney nowadays
Yeh Pretty much with so many songs
@@michaelbarnett8886 Not when it comes to 2D animation, I thinik Netflix could make a real good series out of it, animated or not, tho personally i'd love an animation
As long as they stick to the book to the T everything will be fine.
Damn, that was really well done!
OoO Wow! A youtuber with less than 1k likes.
Just today I finished reading The Name of the Wind. This animated scene of Kvothe pronouncing the name of the wind for the first time has been spectacular. Great job
Sim's face at 3:05 omg 😂😂😂
Someone send this to Patrick Rothfuss pleasee
you know Kvothe is a lot more bearable when your not in his head
Oh shit YES
i still really like it, but you're probably right. when the film does come out it may make the character way less suffocating, thus improving in greatly on the story.
that said, it would still have to do justice to all the great parts it contains.
I LOVE Kvothe. Everyone has flaws. I'm sure if you get to listen to every little thought in ANYONE'S head, that person would be unbearable.
@@likesflower Imo the whole gimmick of the book is listening to his thoughts. Rothfuss is a phenomenal writer
@@adityasuryavanshi3687 I don’t like kvothe because he has no flaws. He’s a major mary sue
I was grinning like an idiot during the whole video. The art is breathtaking and omg I'm SCREAMING this is so good!!! And Wilem's ACCENT is adorable!!
the audio is taken from the audiobook narration, Nick Podelh if I am not mistaken. This accent work is really good.
That's awesome! Thanks for letting me know!!
The audio book is amazing.
The audiobook is really well done, just wait till you hear master Kilven
I dont usually listen to audio books but I'm TOTALLY going to check it out now! Thanks everyone :D
Thos is exquisite. The camera angles and shots are so well thought out and dynamic. If this was a polished scene with full animation and color it would be better than most animated shows now. I also love your characters, they are immediately recognizable and memorable. GOOD JOB!
HOLY HECK THIS IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! THE SCENERY, THE CHARACTERS, THE CAMERA ANGLES, THEIR EXPRESSIONS, TENSION, JUST ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS BREATHTAKING WOW WOW WOW!!! Someone show this to Pat it needs all the appreciation it can get
He found it and posted it on his blog :))
This has been my favorite book/series forever and I am absolutely blown away by the talent in this, it's remarkably done and gorgeous
OMG! This is SO well storyborded, the shots, the composition, the tension...This is pure cinema!! Great job!
time to find out what this kingkiller series is about so i can become absolutely obsessed with it
Soo?
@@idontslicebreadwithaflashl2562 it's Kvothe actually not Kvothe. If you know what I mean.
This is exactly what this series needs. Animation. You can do so much more with animation than you can with live action. Need moar of dis pls. I would definitely pay
I just read this part of the book the other day
Perfect timing. Goddam Ambrose
Big Box Wrench what page is it I want to get to it so bad. I’m at the part when he gets to the University and does the interview
From the creator's IG: "was a revisionist on Voltron" well that explains that yall in the comments were shouting about.
You're doing the God's work dude, thank you
Moral of the story: Don’t break that guys lute
This is, loke, insanelly well done. If nothing else (cause having an adaptation because of this is just wishfulkl thinking), I hope this gets to some of the people with the moneys and lands you a job.
One of my fav books. Really inspired me to write my own one, along with The song of fire and ice series. (Yeah, I'm a trash for epic fantasy.)
Also this one of the best moments from the first book, I just got the chills when he called the Wind.
The Witcher books are also great (they're all free on YT, start with The Last Wish) or if you want something hardcore (a mix of LotR, ASoIaF, and Silmarilion, if you mix them up and dose them with mind-altering hallucinogens and a shot of meth) The Second Apocalypse series by R Scott Bakker, starting with The Darkness That Comes Before.
I actually winced when the lute broke, here. This is amazing! I'd LOVE to see it fully animated.
Auri's here and definitely loved it! And Auri needs her Kvothe to play lute for herself, evil Ambrose :(
The sheer raw EMOTION IN THIS flipping SCENE OMG please please please I want a whole movie. Several movies. This was so GOOD.
If you ever want someone to voice act for you (nothing as professional because I'm just aspiring) just hit me up. I'll gladly join you on this travel!
The use of sound was really powerful here! Well done!
When I told my 16 year old about the books he said, “that would make a great anime!” Now, I think he’s right.
He is right 🤣 a bit low on the action for most anime but its such a great story... Kvothe reeks of anime protagonist energy as well ahahaha
The books did really well in Japan, so fingers crossed.
It was so well made! When Abrose threw the lute, I stopped breathing for a second. And as it broke, I got tears of anger in my eyes. Even a little more then normally....
Love it. Would love to see more!
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT!!! THIS BOOKS ARE THE BEST AND I DONT OFTEN SEE FANART OR STUFF ABOUT THEM BUT THIS????THIS IS SO PERFECT I LOVE THIS THANKS OMG
Should I read them? I heard there is no third book out yet and it's taking a long time 🤔
@@joachimoyalegan6573 You should totally read them!!! They are so so interesting and absolutely magical it helps a lot for coping with reality haha.And I think the third one will be coming out this year! (Hopefully!)
Man I need this in my life so badly... this is exactly what I want to see it, animated like this. Like Avatar the legend of Aang.
1000/1000 must do
That would be so darn good
This is so fantastic! Love how you incorporated the narrator from the audiobook; masterful editing. The whole thing was just... my god, I don’t have words. This is one of the most memorable scenes from my favorite book, and you adapted it wonderfully.
that's just amazing. your art n Patrick Rothfuss masterpiece, what a scene.
is it a masterpiece if it's not finished?
@@luistapia1345
And if the second half of the second book was pretty mediocre?
I just stumbled across this video again after a few years. What I still find interesting is that the scenes in fanart etc. look so similar to each other. The scene you animated does look so similar in my head. Crazy how well Patrick Rothfuss did describe characters and environments. Really like like the video and am glad that I found my way back here.
Thank you for doing this!!! The King killer chronicles is my favorite (at least the first 2) trilogy! Great animation too. I love your character design and anatomy. we need more anime style in western media.
you should get a twitter, i'm sure Patrick Rothfuss would notice :D
(At least the first 2) that’s all there is... Rothfus hasn’t released Doors of Stone...
@@brenpeter As if it'll ever release :(
oh no?
Let’s hope for the best and plan for the worst. And by planning I mean crying.
I could only read the first one. It was a really good idea, but was I the only one that absolutely hated Denna? Like, she just appeared randomly and didn’t even act like a real person. Not to mention at the end of the book I was just done with it. It never made any advances towards the main plot and even at the ONE point that it could advance, DENNA JUST APPEARS FOR NO REASON. Why her!? The coincidence is just too fake. The beginning of the book (aside from the weird fetish the author has of getting Kvothe beat up) was good, compelling, and the magic is the best of any I’ve read, but it’s just bad from when Denna comes in. I failed to read the second because reviews, that I agree with, marked it as awful. Anyways, this animation was well made so good job man.
First I find your videos on how to improve our artistic skills in the best way possible and then I saw THIS. Dude I just can’t ♥️♥️♥️
Brillent, you captured the scene perfectly and left me wanting more!
So freaking good, loved the tense moment with Simmons's eyes flashing back and fourth between Kvothe and Jakis!
This book series is so underrated... This animation is amazing!!
Hey man, this was really great. The stylistic choice of keeping it simple and making it all about the dialogue and sounds and just the most important visual effects works perfectly for the type of book. The only thing I would change if you were to continue this, cast more voice actors for the different characters ;)
He took the audio from the audiobook.
Amazing work! This is until today my favourite scene in the book. Would love to see the next scene with Elodin
This was wonderful in such a short length you captured so much of their personalities. Incredible incredible work thank you and I hope you do more
2:57 i dont know what i like so much about this scene in general maybe its just the zoom and im overthinking but anyways i have to say that, just that zoom show his confusion so good that im actually impress.
it also adds to this feeling hearing the sprung note sounding when "inside" his head.
readers will remember how Elodin investigated and calmed this very confusion, adding even more.
This popped up in my recommended, I haven’t heard of this series at all, but this animation was fantastic!
This looks great! Makes me want an adaptation of the series to animation. I have the feeling movies or a tv series like GoT might not do it as much justice as something on the lines of Avatar The Last Airbender could.
Hope to see more like this!
Nick Podehl is one of my favorite audiobook speakers. So good...
Amazing I love the books and this captures it so well
Amazing scene, amazing audio, for anyone who's who it was taken from the Audio book the version that was narrated by Nick Podell, it's incredible and delicately magical you should go have a listen;)
THIS IS SO COOL! and NoTW is so few and far between! I love it!
most excellent. just started reading this series and its freaking amazing. if they made a live action version or a full animated series it would be great.
Im not familiar with Patrick's work but this was well done. *approving clap intensifies*
That person's face from behind after he did the wind spell acualy made me smile even given the situation.
I just... wow! I love this so much! I love name of the wind and can't say how much you made my stomach turn when I realized what part this was! omg I want to much more lol
If you ever do more of this (or anything) in the coming years please let me know if you need voice talents I'd love to do it free of charge
This video actually introduced me to this book series. I love it SO much
this is why you don't mess with the warlocks boyfriend
What?
@@nicholassimmers1318 dnd joke
he's an arcanist
@@remensviel2342 an artificer
@@nabil5134 no hes an arcanist
just discovered this and i have to say....id watch a series like this... exactly like this... of the kingkiller chronicle. a true masterpiece. tyvm
I nearly shit myself when I realized what scene this was
I've been waiting so long to watch this since first discovering King Killer Chronicles AND since following your art tutorial videos, finally since finished the 2 novels and companion short stories I remembered you had this in your playlist!
You captured that scene excellently! How I wish there was more ways to get immersed in this story!
Very nice. If you enjoyed this book series, I recommend checking out Emperor's Blades. It is one of the best written stories I've ever read, including this one.
Emperor's blades is awesome :)
Dude, the music, the sound effects, the ambient sound... DEAD ON!!!!! This was great!
I think you might have to do more of these bro...
I _just_ found this book and am like halfway through the first book, and found this channel today through YT recommended (not even this vid, the one about Odd) and happened to be curious what else this guy has, and here this is!!
Life is so weird but can be great sometimes
Mano, parabéns pelo trabalho, está genial. Eu com toda certeza pagaria pra ver essa série completa. Dou a maior força.
This is crazy. I finished name of the wind a month ago, and have only just started watching your vids, but here I am watching an animation about one of my favorite books ever...
Bravo I think this story would only be done justice if it’s animated like Legend of Korra/Cowboy Bebop
Korra was shit lol, avatar
More like Fate, KKC deserves the best animation and the biggest budget
Loved the fact that you used Nick Podhel's audiobook recording for this. His voice is perfect for Kingkiller!
Nick Podehl is one of my favorite narrators on all of Audible. He breathes life into the book and makes everything feel so much more real. I love the animation you've done on this so far and would love to see more small snippets like this. You said it's for practice and teaching, so where can I find the related lessons for this animation?
The Rupert Degas narration is far superior.
@@petershuker163 I agree wholeheartedly!!
@@petershuker163 I have to agree, I've listened to both versions. This is not bad narration, but Degas is on a whole different level. There is almost no comparison.
Podehl is great and is on fire with a ton of other books he has narrated but Rupert Degas takes this one. Sorry bud.
What is most amazing is you can see and feel it did not go through 100 layers of bureaucracy. Such a good, raw job.
PLEASE MAKE THIS REAL ETHAN!!!!!! PLEEEEEEEEEAAASSEEEE!!!!
I litterally want a animated series a regular series a movie and a game these books are just AMAZING
uh bro did you just break my guitar
its a 7 string lute
It's a lute you uncultured swine
LOVE that its this scene. And got the audiobook narration
This is really well done, thank you.
My only critique is that there are parts when the voices become so quite that they are difficult to hear over the sounds effects. Other than that - 100%!
I think that's intentional. The only times I noticed it was Sim's voice fading out near the beginning, which probably happens because Kvothe focuses on the fountain, and Kvothe actually calling the wind, which would make sense to keep illegible and mysterious.
Yes exactly, if one mutters the Name of something you can't understand whats their saying in best case you can only hear the name of element (i.e. fire)
I've been meaning to read this series for a while but now I want your animated series. This was excellent!
Exactly as I imagined it.
i like the atmosphere of the "world" you created, the vibrant colors in the city are very nice.
This… is exactly how I imagine it
I wish this was fully animated! It would be soooo good. And Nick Podehl's reading is PHENOMENAL.
This was one of the main reasons I ended up reading name of the wind. I'm glad for it even tho the animation did set my expectations a little to high.
I SAW THIS IN MY RECOMMENDATIONS AND IT BROUGHT BACK FOND MEMORIES OF ME READING THE SERIES SO MANY YEARS AGO AND I CAN SAY THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE EBST SERIES IVE EVER READ
Me: where are all these Harry Potter vibes coming from?
*Reads the description*
Oh ok
Animation is the right way of adapting fantasy to the screen
Wait, that's what the book is about?
An airbender being bullied?
This comment fiscally hurts.
@@akiras.3595 is just a joke, this book is very popular and this animation made me want to read it 😂
lmao!!! yup
You're not wrong.
The soundscape and design is superb. Bravo!!
The for the love of Tehlu, finish this!!! Please!!!
HOW AM I JUST NOW SEEING THIS?!?! This needs to be pushed through! If I get to see these books as an anime then they will definitely be up there as one of my favs.
Omg what is the name of the music playing at the beginning? It sounds so familiar for whatever reason
Omg I finally figured it out. It's "A New Beginning" by Alexandre Desplat from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt.2
Huh I just read this part again yesterday night. Great job! Would love to see more scenes.
YOU ARE AMAZING, that was exactly how they should make it look in the movie!!!
Absolutely amazing work. Definitely the best KKC video art out there. Probably the best KKC fanart out there(my opinion)
I loved this!! Its a great visual representation of the scene in the book, accompanied by awesome ambiance!! I'm surprised I've only found this now :) great work
I have been waiting for someone to make a good animation of this great book
