111th Anniversary Livestream - Remastered Real-Time Sinking

Starting at 10 PM EDT, join THG devs as we watch a totally redone and remastered version of the famous Real-Time Sinking animation synced up to the anniversary of the disaster. The Titanic model, iceberg collision, breakup, final moments, and more are all updated. ⛴ While the goal of THG is to remember and commemorate the lives aboard Titanic by recreating all details of her and the entire story as realistically and historically precise as possible, it is only sometimes foolproof. This is especially true with a reconstruction of the sinking: no one animation can nor should be considered 100% accurate or accepted as absolute fact as what happened that fateful night in 1912. Saying as much would be akin to the same hubris as calling Titanic unsinkable. 💅🏼 The THG Team wishes to applaud our Media Manager, Jack Gibson, for taking on such an endeavor as animating a new sinking animation as a gift to the whole community and us. We are very proud and impressed with his work with our various Titanic models in Unreal Engine 5. But Jack hopes everyone forgives him for any programming bugs or errors (stand by your fantastic work, Jack!) 🚣 We love creating Titanic content for everyone to enjoy. However, we must stress that this sinking animation is not representative of what may or may not be in the final or any upcoming versions of Titanic: Honor and Glory, the THG Alpha, or Titanic: Project 401. 📜 We always seek to improve and gladly accept constructive criticism of our current work. What you are watching won’t be our last animation on the sinking - as we attempt to get it as accurate as possible. Feel free to post your critiques, questions, or comments on our progress! 🌜 Titanic sank on a moonless night. If you were outside and didn’t have your vision interrupted constantly by the ship’s lights, your eyes would eventually be adjusted to the darkness. However, it would still be quite dark. To allow audiences to see the events unfold, we have decided to keep the lighting as you will see it. 👩‍🎓 We treat this as a documentary. There were many sources used to assist in its creation which we implore you to scour and study yourself. One such is “Report into the Loss of the SS Titanic A Centennial Reappraisal“ by Samuel Halpern. This book was heavily utilized. While it is nearly impossible to translate the report directly from page to 3D without weeks or months of intense work, Jack and the researchers did their best. 📖 Get Sam’s book 🔬Research is fluid - and Mr. Halpern released updates on his (right after we finished this animation!), which he shared, free for all to read. 📊 Read his latest articles on Titanic’s sinking: ... ... 🎶 Select songs from Titanic’s band composed by Ege M. Erdogan. More of his work will be featured in Titanic: Project 401, coming soon! ◼️ THG PATREON: ◼️ THG FACEBOOK: ◼️ THG DECK PLANS: ◼️ THG WEBSITE:
