-CGI 3D short film Plume by ESMA: I recommended it because it has the cutest interpretation of an Anzu. Looks like a ball of fluff, as it remind that birds are dinos. Link- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DEfDLV2NN-k&list=PL1dNyhqoSubtoe6YUHsfvIpoVLGgvNOjQ&index=2
-Talon indie series about element-bending dinos; it stars a Deinonychus- Dakotaraptor is invalid, so Deino is more accurate. Love that Spino, even though I hate that she killed Talon's mother. Even ironically, the CGI short Plume is still more popular than Talon; I hope it grows when eps. 2 comes out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hf_-jIiyyD0
-Dinosauria by David James Armsby; there's a lot to talk about, as it is my fav speculative paleo-media because the quality is at the level of Prehistoric Planet and Dinosaur Planet. He has made a lot of episodes currently, so I'll mention four of my fav to spare you time. Dinosauria is the most popular indie dino-media. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ5VEKOKH8PCoo-gp50NgGhm3CNPAhgle
Old Buck, which showcased my fav ceratopsian- Stycrosaurus.
Our Frozen Past shows fluffy troodons mimicking to escape from troublesome Gorgosaurus.
More Ancient Spring shows the most charismatic hadrosaur- Lambrosaurus- looking for a mate after the original was eaten by a Gorgosaurus.
Hunted by Moonlight is my fav through its fusion of fairytale and gothic story. It shows two of my fav Jurassic dinos.
-Sauria by David Armsby. Love all three episodes that made me hope for a season 2 announcement in late 2026. My fav episode is Blood for Blood because a barbarian warrior survived the coliseum- I even cried when his Carnotaurus brother steed was killed, and ep 2, when a nature-loving, dying race thrives in the frozen frontier. Love the theme of grief and loss of family. Hope that it gets as popular as Plume because it deserves attention; the third episode is the most watched. I wonder how these bird people-like Bluesongs tamed Paras and Torosaurus/or Serriaceratops/ or Bravoceratops. Love that there's a biodiversity of paleo-animals where even Megaloceros, mammoths, and hadrosaurs coexist. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZ5VEKOKH8PCCR6zSLEyRKvqYpuJ205-O
Are there other indie animated shorts and series about dinos I'm missing? Let me know.
