Excellent. I imagine that many people will click off in the first 30 seconds but I'm glad I stayed with it. It doesn't try to overreach and has effective plotting and worldbuilding. More!
The video personifies a great deal of what is wrong with such creations. Poor acting. Poor writing. Bad pacing. Bad cinematography. It's just... unwatchable.
When you've been around fan and student made film enough, you appreciate so many of the things most viewers take for granted. Sound mixing for example. There are SO many shorts that have bad sound editing where you either have dialogue too low or high, the score too low or high, background noises, sound effects, etc. Clearly someone in this production understands the importance of that. In most works I see, they get some things right at the cost of others, and its always different from project to project which get more attention and which less. This film nailed the sweet spot on all the technical elements, AND told a fun, interesting, moving story, AND added a nice hook at the end. This is a crew to watch. Cheers and well done. Thank you.
Good world exposition, nice "new unknown threat" teaser, and no gratuitous misandry. Throw all the budget on it and don't let Lauren Hissrich within a mile of the set.
Wow - great job! How is it that a short film on RU-vid can be more engaging than major film productions costing hundreds of millions of dollars? Really well done!
Most wouldn't remmber this ,but in the 2000 there was the t.v show called Dinotopia it was a sort one made by ABC ,and Halmark . It was low budget movie ,but with that money they made this fantastic show at that same area they made the 10th kingdom . Both a classics in my opinion they didn't do as they hoped, so they didn't really finish the shows . I wished I found this sooner . It's great I want to see more I knew it takes a long while to make this kinda things ,but would it be possible to make more ?
