My First Half-Life """""Short Film""""" [50,057 Subscriber Special] 

Man source 3 looking like real life

You literally just brought me back 15 years with this - used to spend countless hours in the early days of Gmod making my own stories in the Half-Life universe. Always kick myself for never getting into hammer/source film maker when I was younger and had the summer off. Never too late I guess right haha?

That moment when the health counter is at 90 is pretty relatable. Fall damage in Gmod can be annoying.

this has a distinct charm to it that reminds me of the old 2004-2009 half life and gmod machinimas, I really love it because that time period was special to me when I was a kid.

A great start, making it all the more impressive when you look at how far you've pushed the boundary since!

"I was 14" that is no excuse for how good this actually is, you can even feel a bit of your current style on the combine soldier POV, definitely makes me wish I was doing SFM films at that age.

For being your first short film, this is pretty great! Have you considered remaking it today using your new experience and the techniques you've learned? I think that would be quite a treat!

Breh your cinematography was objectively very good for a 14 year old. Sure its a shoddy gmod machinima, but the core is there.

Amazing how this is like a child's crayon drawing compared to your latest stuff, yet still has a prototypical essence of your style.

this is the best one yet!

The quality varies quite a bit, but more than half of the scenes have really good atmosphere and expression. Big thanks for sharing this - while I'd love to see this touched up and remastered, even in its current shape it's already a gem.

Great job to your 14 year old self, and also huge waves of nostalgia from the way back when times. Nothing like the good old machinima days!

This was actually good for when you was 14 👍

I love how this is your first film and still has your style written all over it

So this person went from this to the best half life animations I've seen.....wow

With this video, I can say something, AMAZING, that essence of your films was there from the beginning and was a key piece in creating films that with their atmosphere and themes plunge us into the world of half life from the first second. You are definitely my favorite animator.

This is actually not all that bad. Even then your talent was apparent or at the least had a starting point from which to grow.

It's SO CUTE! Man, every childhood creations are the most soulful creations at all!

Congrats of 50k! I found this channel yesterday and was amazed by how high quality it all was. I love your content, keep up the good work! :D

Masterpiece.

OMG! when was this made!!!! XDD I'm an animator too, a stop motion one might I add, that make 30 fps toy figure shooting films, and I am majorly impressed with your first "film" (lol), I love all of your amazing works of art from the very first to the City 17 VHS tape and all the ones to come in the future! you are BY FAR my favorite animator of all time and you just have the perfect point of view for the Half Life Universe like no on else. I hope you make animations until the world explodes or at least for as long as I'm not blind lol. -Joey 💚 Edit: and yes, I am aware this isn't exactly "Animated" but it had pretty great execution considering how very few tools Garry's Mod had back in the day, you deserve my full respect and love, from all of us.

Congrats on 50k!!!

A legend in the making.

The subtitles are Sublime

Love the added subtitles explaining everything!

We all have to start somewhere...

Started from here now look at where you are, I salute and congratulate you for the effort you have made through the years dude 👏👏👏👏👏

We all start somewhere!

is no one talking how absolutely gold the captions are XD PC DYING as a 3d modeler who renders a lot....i felt the pain

This video is absolutely packed with nostalgia. Wish I still had some of my old projects.

literal hood classic

I like your style man 🤩🤩

Once again, amazing work!

like animating this at age of 14 is insane. You got talent man keep going parry!

Showing that even the best come from the bottom 💪 💪

This is were cinema was made gentlemen.

Look how far you've come. Time flies so fast.

You should remake this, but in S2FM

This is more like watching a comedy than watching a drama holy shit

Listen, everyone starts somewhere, like not everyone is a prodigy, prodigies are exceptions not the norm, like I can tell this has effort and passion it just comes down to skills and motivation and the simple thing is that your skills have improved over time. Like I think it’s a bad idea to throw out your old work for a number of reasons but one of my reasons is because you need to know how far you’ve come, like when you’re making art it’s easy to get down on yourself and think you can’t improve anymore, but when you look at your early stuff you see the flaws easier and you can tell that you have come along way. Like I’ve been making pencil art since I was 5 and man it’s easy for me to rag on myself but like that’s the price of being creative, you’re your own worst critic. Anyway yeah I think I needed to get that out of my system.

Now just Imagine if parry remade this....

proof that parrygod doesn’t need S2 to make a literal masterpiece

dude i haven't seen this but it gave me nostalgia becuase i watch Gmod vids like this back then

Its crazy your upgrade

The subtitles are gold😂

The foreboding and intense storytelling a seeming trademark style you have developed def. present in this first film.

A helmet camera, for like the Overwatch data feed, could be a really compelling concept combined with more modern animations... And back in the Gmod Idiot Box days of yore, pretty ahead of it's time too.

Your uploads make me happy. *Thanks for the Content* !

I congratulate you on 50,000! every time I watch your animations

Such high-octane action!

You did great for your first animation.

I liked this. The three gun ships flying out at exactly the same time was right on target

Combat scene sold it for me. Good work. 👏👏👏👏👏

Everyone starts on rough edges, so glad that you were able to smooth them out and chisle them into great animations.

Cool stuff man

Thank you for all that you do

Hey, that's not too bad for a 14 year old xD

Now we know the cameraman was here because he has his health bar visible this tim

For a 14 year old, this is pretty fucking stellar.

Yes!!!! Absolutely, definitely, without a shadow of a doubt that I'm pretty almost sure there was potentially a parry maybe possibly in the dark segment... I think

I recognize those rebel models, suddenly the love you put in for Half Life is a bit more clear

It looks that you always had that fascination for the Combine soldiers, and I can't blame you, me too.

Better than anything I could make

watching this is just amazing, it shows how far your film making skills have come and how advanced source engine has become

captions are great

I think more highly skilled creators should share their baby pictures. It's kind of inspiring to see that even the very best were once beginners too.

4K UHD 120FPS I used to love watching videos like this.

This is quite nice ! A true classic

Turn on captions for developer commentary

The subtitles were hilarious

After watching all of your Half Life oriented things, I still don't understand how you only 50k subs, good work on everything man and congrats

It's amazing how at even that age you were portraying the combine as what they truly are. Overwhelming power and all. Love the creativity displayed here, especially with the combine POV bits. Ever heard of HL2RP?

this is your magnum opus. the only thing of quality to ever come out of this channel. /j

still better than anything i could come up with in my entire life, humble but brilliant begginings

Great nostalgic video. Now we just need its recreation with your current skills

Nice work, keep at it and I think you'll make a great S2FM animator some day!

Hey Parry, was just wondering what your plans are. Are you going to make a film starring Civil Protection this time? We've had citizens and Overwatch. Anyway, onto the gushing. Jesus Christ you have an incomprehensible understanding of cinematography- not for this video of course, but for Protectors and the City 17 tape. Absolutely beautiful. Your abilities to put Grunts and Ordinals on the same spectrum but completely different to each other at the same time. Everything you do must have so much thought put into it and if I could I would applaud you until my fingers fell off. Bravo, sir. You should consider making a discord fan club.

Nice

another straight banger

the nostalgia was really nice thanks for the upload

They grow up so fast

Pc dying part is relatable for me when playing on high graphics

0:51 this bits really cool.

NICE

Damn look at this then look at how he animates now. Damn

The subtaitls killed me 💀.

This was really funny hahahahaha. Not bad for a first one, but I had to crack up at how abrupt it ends with all the blood everywhere and then CUT

I mean, is not THE film, but it is interesting to see your "origins" and see that you don't focus on Freeman but on the rest of the people since always, really interesting that you've kept that focus

14 years? That's very impressive for that age.

Dayum even better then source 2

Yeah you should remake this but with you new crazy skills

Nostalgia

Protectors but we are in 2010

omg i love the 480p cap XD

Better than anything I could've made when I was 14

for 14 amazing i think

Thank you very cool and very cool

Being 14 years old doesn't mean shit, considering how far you've come. You stayed true to your dreams. I envy you.

That's not that bad, especialy for 14-years old

1:34 this bit would be way cooler if your pc wasn't shit. Seeing bullets fly through the smoke as people start screaming is really cool.
