Microsoft Dinosaurs movies

I took some of the movies from the educational program Microsoft Dinosaurs for the PC, and put them together. I did not make these clips, and do not own these movies in any way or form.

@shaelrion Do you have access to any of the other videos from Microsoft Dinosaurs? I remember a T-Rex and Triceratops fight

@seandavidiley

I do, but I would need to find my Microsoft Dinosaurs disc again. I don't remember why I didn't get that scene into this one.

Didn't know microsoft did this. Microsoft and the new PREHISTORIC CHANNEL should partner up. PREHISTORIC CHANNEL just launched.

@prehistoric28

I remember seeing these clips on an old video we used to watch a long time ago at a babysitter's house. I just got these clips from Microsoft Dinosaurs, I don't know who originally made them.

Are you the one narrating this?

[Shaelrion]

@redcarnotaurus No, lol. The narrator is narrating it.

Wow! More of these Dinosaurs clips up! I created many of the backgrounds you see in this animation.

I worked at the Encyclopaedia Britannica Educational Film Department in the early '90s when this project was created.

I'm somehow gladdened that videos like these are being ragarded as nostalgic childhood memories.

Compared to previous childhoods, this is a 'feet on the ground' thing.

Bring 'em on.

Thanks heaps for posting.

Previously, information for the kids entertained a far more scary depiction, and scenario, of everything around you.

It's good to see that even grown ups are growing up.

Everything is more interesting, and less scary, when you venture.

these movies are in very shitty quality on this microsoft disc, any other sources were released so we could see them in higher resolution, it wasnt even 320x240 and its so pixelated.Some of these anims were in the how dinosaurs!

Wow, really impressive. Very well done documentary, with correct information and well drawed dinosaurs instead the typical boring fight between titans full of screams and roars.

This and the Microsoft Musical Instruments cd-rom was the first cd-roms we got when buying our first PC. It was a great thing to behold.
