Hamlet in 3 Minutes

We read the play Hamlet in English class, and for one of my projects, I did this animation video. My class loved it, and someone said I should put it on Youtube. So, here it is!

Note: I made the animations, but the music and songs belong to their respective owners, which are listed in the credits.

Enjoy!

i think you might have missed the whole point of the play with this...

[ERiNxOPPEL]

@damoidable There was a point?

[iwatchthemvideos]

which song was used at 0:41? =P

[ERiNxOPPEL]

@iwatchthemvideos I believe it's "Encounter" from NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams.

Why don't you do another animation

Like that?

[ERiNxOPPEL]

@thejonas928 I actually wanted to do a "Macbeth in 3 Minutes" animation this past summer, but I was so busy that I didn't have the time. Might still do it one of these days.

Why does Old Hamlet have a triforce on his head?

LOL i love the part that's just like, "Eventually..." and they're all dead.

@Alyffa oh yes i totally get your point. that happens quite often when you deal with theatre.. :) you see things over and over and you get bored..i'm actually very glad that you took my comment like that..i wasn't trying to be the "wise girl" or something but i made a great research on that monologue cause i have to say it in english -i'm greek- and i was chosen cause i can do the british accent :P and while searching for the meaning so i could get the feeling, i got thrilled by the words .. :)

[Alyffa]

@chrisoulicius My mistake. Upon further thought, I agree that it does have value. I just didn't enjoy watching about half a dozen performances of it in my AP English class, all in succession. Thanks for giving me a new perspective. :)

(By the way, this is all in earnest; If it sounds sarcastic, that's not what I intended.)

@Alyffa "that worthless monologue"? i learned that monologue because i have to perform it for my school (fine arts-theatre) and i can say that it is a great one..it's about life and all the troubles that come with it and how tempting is for someone to kill himself and get free..but people fear of death and the unknown so they keep on living their tiring lives.. trust me i'm not saying all that stuff cause it's "hamlet" and i've read a LOT of monologues so far but it's trully great

Nice! Imagined Mel Gibson or Laurence Olivier in those significant scenes.

I love how Fortinbras was Sasuke.

[LadyLithedhel]

Triforces and Paper Mario music did it for me.

Hamlet MAH BOI, to be or not to be, that's what all true warriors strive for.
