Titanic's Sea Trials | Animated 112 Years Later

A MONTH TO REMEMBER - APRIL 2ND

112 years ago today, Titanic underwent several hours of sea trials - or “turning circles” as 2nd Officer Charles Lightoller so plainly described them. This important series of maneuvers was meant to prove her seaworthiness to the British Board of Trade and was required by law.

After a successful day of trials, Titanic departed Belfast, Ireland (with just one fare-paying passenger) for an overnight journey to Southampton, England where final preparations for her maiden voyage would be made.

It feels sad to watch this. This was supposed to be the culmination of years of work and the prelude to a long and successful career. Instead, less than two weeks later, it was all gone.

The music makes this video. It's so beautiful, yet so sad. So much hope for the future, but tragedy would destroy that on its very first voyage

Into the sunset she goes.... Beautiful and heartbreaking 😢💔 RIP to all the tragic souls who sailed on her and ventured down to see her never to return 😔😟

This is absolutely gorgeous work by Jack! Finally someone animated the beginning of her journey and showed her true glamour and glory steaming down the Belfast Lough! How she dominates the skyline in this animation is beyond amazing. Amazing work to Jack and the THG Team, we can’t wait for April 14th!!

*I love how your animations bring Titanic back to life and you feel like you are in 1912*

"O hear us when we cry to thee, for those in peril on the sea." 😢

These animations made by Jack are absolutely amazing, you have to respect this work

This has to be the greatest thing I've seen this year! 3:48 gave me full body chills. This would make the perfect intro video for whenever you boot up THG! And the music! Holy cow its incredible! Completely Unreal 💖

Her sea trials what a video thanks so much. The anniversary is fast approaching 112 years ago we lost her April 15th 1912! RIP TO ALL OF THE LOST SOULS. Thanks so much at the end to hear the ship in the ocean. So nice to hear the water.

Stunning. Beautiful. Gorgeous. Melancholy.
Phenomenal work on the ship and especially the water. Can't wait for the anniversary recreation!

[MsDemonBunny]

Gorgeous animation. Well done, Jack. Also Kyle and Tino.

This is the earliest I can be. I love the titanic and learning about it and it's fateful voyage to America

What I appreciate about these renderings is that they don't just recreate the ship, and that in itself is a great job, but also the editing, the choice of shots, of certain angles, some camera movements that seem like caressing the ship, others in which it seems to come to life, like the famous scene of "Take her to the sea Mr. Murdoch",
I don't know if I get the idea. Beautiful work! ❤

[Elli-Mac]

Wow, stunning animation! 💙 Gave me chills and took my breath away for a second there!

[Wildcat_Media]

Everything about this is gorgeous. The animation, the models, the backgrounds, the music(!!) - beautifully done, everyone! ❤

[ilovecatsandsynths]

That was beautiful. The animation and music were both stunning. Almost like being there. So sad to think that less than 2 weeks later this gorgeous ship would be at the bottom of the Atlantic.
