“The Last Tyrant“ | Dinosauria Series | Animated Short Film (2022)

Created by David James Armsby. This is the fifth short film in my “Dinosauria Animated Series“. It is set 66 million years ago in Late Cretaceous North America and covers the dramatic extinction event that wiped out the non-avian dinosaurs. On the surface, this film seems like it’s just about the death of dinosaurs, but that wasn’t supposed to be the focus of this film. I instead set out to create a film about the fantastic legacy of these very real animals, and the inspiration they have given so many of us. I have been dino-obsessed my whole life, and they’re my No. 1 source of creative motivation, which means they’re a huge part of who I am as a person. This film is FULL of big and small references to almost all of my previous dinosaur-related works, and the huge collection of fossils, paleo-media, and real-life experiences that lead me to create this very series! I didn’t set out to make ’The Last Tyrant’ a sad and tragic film about the death of the dinosaurs. That does happen and it is sad, but what I truly wanted to set out and make was a film celebrating the way these animals lived and the lifelong effect they’ve had on me, and many, many others.
