Ozymandias Animation

- This started as a kinetic text experiment based on Bryan Cranston's reading of Percy Shelly's Ozymandias, for the season 5 Breaking Bad teaser trailer.
Needless to say things escalated from there. Before long I was messing with Blender's Cycles engine more than I have before, as well as cloth simulation, low poly modelling, dynamics & forces, and particles. Such fun!
Hope you enjoy it (go HD fullscreen if you can!)
As this is an educational piece for me I'm hoping Bryan and amc will forgive me for using the audio here. The sky texture is a free sample from hyperfocaldesign.com, and I also used the simple human rig from the Blender open movie project Sintel.
Thanks for watching and please share, like and subscribe. Cheers.

Even better since Bryan Cranston was the narrator...

@@E__Saurabh breaking bad
It’s crazy to think about the fact that in the episode Ozymandias of Breaking Bad, it does show Heisenberg’s half sunken visage in the middle of the desert. Right after Hank is executed. Vince Gilligan is a master of his craft.
And the shattered glass of the car resembles the ruins of his meth empire
This episode also show the Walt's pants that appears in the pilot. So, we have the legs and the visage in the desert! Vince Gilligan, fucking genius!
You guys are probably reading too much into it, I've seen artists such as Vince reading comments like yours and being like "yeah, it makes sense, okay..." :D
@@pab1972 This interpretation makes a lot of sense. Heck Vince directly references Ozymandias as the title of the episode.
@@pab1972 people like vince dont usually reference something in the title of an episode and miss an opportunity like this and then go onto accidentally create a perfect parallel in the story
I love how Cranston's reading has become THE reading of Ozymandias
Nah, there's, at least, another two with this level of quality, wich are the reading of Vincent Price and Richard Attenborough.

Everyone rightfully losing their marbles on "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings" is completely warranted, but i can't be the only that also gets chills on the last verse.
"The lone and level sands stretch far away..." What a perfect contrast and conclusion to the works of greater-than-mighty Ozymandias...
Bro this dude is dedicated he's still hearting shit.
I hereby heart this comment 😂
I love how the poem goes from "look on my works ye mighty and despair!" to "nothing beside remains". It shows the harsh reality of life that everything falls eventually. Amazing animation and poem.
Thanks nraz9. I only hope that people don't switch off in that moment of blackness :) Thanks for the comment.
nraz9 This came up in my English exam this is one of my favourite poems :)
Anticlimax
"nothing beside remains" is the works which the mighty should look upon. I will make it real simple blood for the blood god. "And what is this path? This meaning, this purpose to which we gather the skulls of our foes? It is nothing. There is no meaning, no purpose. We murder. We kill. It is mindless savagery, this UNIVERSE IS MINDLESS!"
And amazing reading from Cranston.
I'll never read Ozymandias the same way again. Much more entertaining than the depressing monotone of my english teacher
+Revolutions Per-formance If you enjoy reading, it's always better to read it yourself than to have someone read it to you. You get to be the narrator, the characters, etc. You provide the voice, the inflection, and imagery. Literature provides the blueprints and the reader builds the story.

"Look upon my works, ye mighty, and despair"
But there's nothing there, nothing besides the broken monument of a King who thought he was eternal, his claim refuted, his fight was for naught as time never loses. Absolutely chilling poem.
and yet. his past is known, his statue lingered. people still write poems for him. Is he not immortal then, were his works not mighty. Despair others who are not known for Ozymandias lives on through his might works.
Well, that's the irony of the line. If even Ramesses the Great is doomed to lose his legacy to time, what to today's mighty have to do but despair over their own fates?
I love the fact, that in case that there not stated, what is his work, theres many different conclusions that can be made. For example, my thoughts was, that, look, ye mighty ones, at my work. In days before, there was everything, empire, people, etc, but now, only nothingness stays, so, despair of the fact, that human being can do such an impact, that create a desert on place of great nation
you still know the name ozymandias. so he was indeed remembered. he was eternal, his works were less so
Which is scarier, for his life's works...were nowhere to be found, other than his broken, ruined, weathered statue. Look upon my works...and despair.
can we appreciate that the people behind this video, suddenly getting recommended after 8 years, is still hearting responses and replying to comments. great stuff. I'm glad to see it
It’s always quite fun seeing waves of views and comments once in a while still and seeing what’s behind each one. I still haven’t checked out the Sadist video though 😅 I think the last spike was via ‘Ballad of Buster Scruggs’. Cheers for the comment and thanks to all the newcomers. And maybe check out my ‘Love me or die project’ WIP while you’re here too ;)
We decoded this poem at a writing workshop I went to and well, it is almost a sonnet, with 14 lines of 10 syllables, but at the line where he says. "My names is Ozymandias, king of kings;" it is 11 syllables, breaking the pattern. The poem's structure decays, much like the subject of the poem itself. This is my favorite poem (not that I know many), but if I ever got into poetry more, I would credit it to this poem.
Thanks Arwen. I've wondered about that 11-syllable line breaking the pentameter too, and while that's totally legit within the form, I think theres a case for the pronunciation of Ozymandias being compressed to 4 syllables anyway-along the lines of Oz-y-mand-yus. Not that Brian does it like that of course ;)
@@HamacekS It is meant to break the form because the poem is a broken sonnet
Viperishcoin43 well no within Shellys time It was commonly pronounce Oz-y-mand-yus thus the poem is not broken. At least within the time of its writing
O
Arwen Cantonwine TL;DR: the poem broke bad.
Fun fact: Ozymandias is the Greek name for Ramesses, which means that percy was talking about 'Ramesses the Great' whom reigned from (1279 BC - 1213 BC). He was one of the most greatest pharaohs of the new kingdom.
And a tyrant
Chuck Norris at least he was great, tyrants these days don’t have any works that compare. Ancient tyrants leave art and architecture we can’t reproduce, modern tyrants leave mass graves.
everyone that studied it knows that
@@yamada_sigiri Who said he was a tyrant?? Actually he was a well loved Pharoah. Don't believe everything Hollywood tells you and what that Fictional book called the Bible tries to make him out to be. Hebrews were never slaves in Egypt. So where in the Hieroglyphs that you deciphered that said he was a tyrant??
Something being "great" has no moral implication. Take for example a great fall... One can be both great and a tyrant at the same time, they're not mutually exclusive.
It is impressive to see how many men have fallen for pride throughout human history. It's the same old trap, but we keep falling into it.
Humans haven't really changed in the last 100k years, but we've gotten pretty good at pretending we have
@@OatmealTheCrazy what do you mean by that?
I think it's more impressive to see how many men die with nothing done to be proud of.
“Those who fail from history are doomed to repeat it”
And humanity has a thing for ignorance.
@Stinko De mayo did you just make that up yourself?
This is easily the best visualization I've seen so I keep coming back to it. So many others show giant sand dunes when the poem says "level sands" or show a smiling ruler with no sneer. This one gets everything right and each element is also top-tier on its own. Bravo!
Emmett Turner thanks so much! Much appreciated ☺️ I guess it was important to understand the poem well in the process and respect it in the visuals.
Vince!
Does anyone else think Brian Cranston would make a really good Optimus Prime?
Descendant of Kraff No one should ever replace Peter Cullen. At least he made a decent Zordon

Alexander the Great
Ozymandias, aka Ramses II, is still remembered over 3000 years later.
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:-
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand."- The City's gone,-
Naught but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.
We wonder,-and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.
@Percy Lithos
This is Horace Smith's "Ozymandias"
And the video is Percy Shelley's "Ozymandias"
Our whole planet will be that leg one day.
Keith Manfredi what makes you say this, your indoctrination has been a complete success.!
"your indoctrination has been a complete success.!"
What a dunce.
I was going to mention the supposed "coincidence" of the similarities between the two poems, because evidently Shelley and Smith's competition didn't have much in the way of criteria, but upon looking it up again I discovered the whole venture was sparked by the discovery of a fragment of Egyptian statue. Given what criteria _was_ supposedly agreed upon, I can only imagine how easy it was write roughly the same poem.
futurestoryteller it's you who is the dunce for not reading that my reply was to Manfredi, s despair.
HELLO PLS REMEMBER THAT THIS PERSON MADE A GREAT ANIMATION AND IS DESERVING OF PRAISE
(Pls don’t fill the comment about Sadist, we love them but spamming her on other channels is rude)
Thanks for the courteous thought there. Honestly as long as the comments themselves aren’t rude it doesn’t worry my too much. I was curious what was going on with the spike in views and comments again after all this time. So it’s just interesting for me, and well, I’ve just learnt about DSMP 😂
@@HamacekS ah okay!! :D I just didn’t want people to undermine the effort this took, I’ve seen it happen one too many times and it was sad with Glass Animal’s Heatwaves.

Ps. Ur animation really was cool to watch tho! I hope I can animate and create digital 3D sculptures like that one day even if it’s for fun
yes, thank you.

As for the gay thing,, i don’t really see how it should affect u much. This notion is easily fixable by stating what ur sexuality actually is :D
or, simply not needing to prove urself to ppl who r merely living in a screen and u don’t know nor care about them to justify urself for. If ur gay, straight, bi, pan or whatever, I hope ur comfortable and safe, know that ur valid and loved my friend

I met a gamer from an antique land, who said
Two vast and corded joysticks of black stand on the console.
Near them, half sunk in the carpet, a shattered cartridge lies,
Whose case, and dimensions thick, and bits of four
Tell that its programmer well those limitations read
Which yet survive, stamped on these plastic things.
The hands which played them, and the hearts that fed.
And on the panel these words appear:
"My name is Atari 2600! Look upon my 4-bit graphics and despair!"
Nothing beside remains.
Round the 13-inch CRT of that ancient wreck, boundless and bare,
The shag carpet and popcorn ceiling stretch
Far away...
Nice.

That’s called a pastiche
Console of consoles
Nice
I'm not even joking when I say this, but I think Ozymandias is one of the only pieces of work that has really changed the way I think about something and the animation really gives the sense of scale and just the general themes of the poem a clear and powerful weight. Thank you for making this video and thank you more for somehow still replying to people's comments years after this video's creation.

They truly do stretch far away.

I watched this video and fell in love with the poem. In our first advanced class English lesson of tenth grade I remember wandering off and out of curiosity checking the content of our literature book. When I saw ozymandias was there I was beyond excited, Finnally something worth my time and effort I thought to myself. I asked the teacher if we will be reading this poem as part of our literature program and she said no. School is just fucking terrible.

What makes one poem good and another bad?
@@CaptainGrimes1 you make a poem good or bad ,Kinda. It's entirely in your head. If I send you a poem I wrote and say it was written by ezra pound , you'll prolly like it. But it's not purely subjective also. You think it's purely subjective and that you are making the decision as to whether you like the poem or not. But in reality it's got to do with deep rooted power structures that have already created a bias in you. So, in conclusion you are deciding whether a poem is good or bad , but the decision is not an unbiased one, subtle societal structures shape your decision.
Ozymandias is the only TV-episode with a 10/10 imbd

A thoroughly well-visioned beautiful rendition. The powerful ominous voice, music, text display, animation and tone fits the poem perfectly. A fine tribute, sir..
JunkheadRooster The voice is Bryan Cranston's. "Ozymandias" himself.
Snaggle Toothed oooooo wow ur sooo cool
Emman Aguilera yeah the episode “Ozymandias” is a tribute to the poem as Walter White’s head lays on the desert floor after the supremacists take everything away
Snaggle Toothed ooooooh yes fine scholar. Now forget these empty men, let us begin with our analysation of Dr. Faustus text B and how it compares to text A.
Imagine someone being led to classic works through pop culture.... novel concept?
So this is the origin from the Ozymandias SAD-ist animation, Amazing
Bruh this guys keeps reading the comments 8 years after posting this video. Liked and subscribed just for the commitment.
Seems like the animator has made some clever embelishments to enhance the impact of the poem. The drumbeat in the background both reinforces the cadence of the poem and (imo) doubles down on the starkness of the setting.
Having the text at the end circling around the ruins symbolically represents the passage of time, whether by hands circling a clock or constellations circling the sky as months and years pass.
After posting this I also noticed that he scrolled the description of the sneering face over the statue's head foreshadowing the next line about "STAMPED on these lifeless things..." as well as having the pedestal text swirl away like sand in the wind to underscore the ephemeral nature of O`s authority.
I think you’re the first person to mention the clock face metaphor! Yes thank you! You have won! (my gratitude)
@@HamacekS Hey I'm glad to see you're still alive

@Snaggle Toothed Lol wow, you are one triggered little bitch aren't you? I can't even get mad at how stupid your comment is because it is so astronomically moronic and Earth-rendingly unnecessary that all I can do is grin and laugh at what an utter clown you've made of yourself.
This poem always gives me comfort in a strange way. It calms me down when I worry about how I’ll be remembered, in the end, no matter how great or terrible, how large or insignificant, how selfish or selfless your actions were, they will be forgotten in time, and will turn to dust as you have. Just live life as you see fit and do what fulfills you as an individual. “The lone and level sands stretch far away”.

Jędrzej Zawadzki gosh thank you so much
This poem is perfect irony. Two layers of perfect irony are created by the sharp transition between the lines "look on my works ye mighty and despair" and "nothing beside remains round the decay of that colossal wreck". The first layer of irony is obvious, the confidence of the carving on the statue contrasted with the harsh reality that nothing of this once great figure's work remain. It is a sort of satisfyingly irony, like when someone gloats to you but is unable to back up their talk. The second layer of irony hits when, in a twisted way, you realize the carving on the pedestal is correct. The despair comes not from looking at the works of a great man and realizing you can never amount to anything close, as likely would have been the intent of those words, but from the realization that no matter how great a man is and no matter how hard he works to stamp his name into history, he will always end up forgotten. I always loved how the carving on the pedestal, despite being undermined by the next line in the poem, comes back with a bit of truth to it that the mighty should see the collapsed ruins of this mighty man and despair knowing their works head to the same fate. Also, in the video, I love the note of the carved words on the pedestal disintegrating into sand, really driving home the harsh transition to reality.
I never realized that second part. Nice job
There's a certain sick and beautiful twist of fate in trying so hard to immortalize yourself, only to have your name remembered as an example of kings whose deeds have been long forgotten.
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said:-Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away
This poem hits harder when you know what historical figure it refers to and knowing that monuments to him are decaying right now in Egypt. He truly was one of the most powerful men of his age, and now he is relegated to the sands of time.
Can’t believe this only popped up on my recommended now-
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings! Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair." GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS EVERY TIME
I love the silence at the end as the realization that nothing last forever.
Fun fact, this poem was written by Percy Shelly, the husband of Mary Shelly who wrote “Frankenstein”
Great literature power couple
It’s not dying that’s the worst of things. It’s being forgotten and ultimately insignificant in the long run.
Your name and legacy reduced to a poem. That’s the best case scenario.
of course this gets recommended to me after sad-ist's video
Here before a fandom strikes in
This got recommended to me when a week or something after the sad-it’s animation

Ozymandias is an archaic name for the greatest Pharaoh.

Nothing expresses romanticism and postmodernism more than this
God bless you I am taking a British literature course and reading this poem I could not grasp it but watching you video has made it easier to understand
You're very welcome! Makes me so glad that this little piece helps people connect with the poem :)
My litterature teacher had us study this poem, and all I can renemeber is :
"No matter who you are, and what you do in your life, it's only a matter of time until your existence fades away"
-The poem itself is just sort of fading away
-The king, if not for the talent of the sculptor would already be forgotten
-As grand as he was, he is just the story of a traveler
-he desired to be renemebered by generations after generations because of the mighty things he did, but it's all overshadowed by the art made by the artist which lasted longer to time than the accomplishments of Ozymandias
I have two moods: "Look on my works ye mighty and despair!" and "Nothing beside remains."
The curious disgust in the line "stamped on these.. lifeless things" gives me the chills

Really helping for my English literature exam tomorrow morning 🤣🤣 thanks, awesome animation
Incredible to think that Shelly was a fan of Ozzy before Mr. Osborne was even born. Ozzy transcends time.
I don't know if it have already happened but : Welcome to the Video Game Community!
To me, the most ingenious, and the most frightening part of the poem is the line "Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair". It's amazing how Shelley uses the words 'ye', 'mighty' and 'despair' intentionally ambiguously. I can never get tired of that part, it contains a lesson to everyone in this planet.👍❤️
Bryan Cranston has such an awesome reading voice. Perhaps only James Earl Jones or Patrick Stewart could read Ozymandias better.
Plus, the original commercial trailer this was read for was for the final season of Breaking Bad, and Ozymandias was the title for one of the final episodes of that series. So apropos - that for all the greatness one might achieve in their lifetime, and all the pride and arrogance such achievement generates, time will eventually tear all of it down to nothing.
What I love about this sonnet is that it's an artist trying to create a lasting work about how no work lasts.
"The bigger they are, The harder they'll fall"
- Robert Fitzsimmons, 1902
1:13 Has anyone noticed that the shadow is of the once complete statue, symbolizing that the modern statue is just a shadow of its former self.
A nice idea, but i think it is just the shadow elongated outward further which of course looks more complete.
It is a nice idea, wish I’d thought of it 🤓

but definitely not for the reasons he could have hoped for
'Ozymandias' is the title of the poem, by Percy Shelly. It comes from the Greek word for 'Rameses' I believe. Is that what you wanted to know?
It is a nice name. I don’t know why, but I just like it a lot.

I might be one of the few who first heard this poem from The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs by the Coen brothers, but I assure you that this animation chilled me to the bone. Might also be because I am Italian, and my people’s empire fell apart like many others, including Ozymandias’.

A lesson for all those who believe they are supremely powerful
Anyone else here from the SADist animatic?
This animation is amazing, thank you. It's the first thing that introduced me to Bryan Cranston's reading of the poem, which ultimately led to me watching the masterpiece that is Breaking Bad. Thanks for putting me on!
Milan von Delft thank you! Well it’s quite a thing to think that my animation led someone to Br Ba and not the other way round. Thanks for saying 😊
