Quote from: Jason Todd Voorhees on Jul 08, 2022, 10:21:02 AMSo this is an animation film correct? Fully CGI no actual actors involved?

No Mate, filmed actor (myself) playing different roles, matte paintings, and some CGI (I'm not very good at 3D)

I was expecting this to be the case as I watching, but wasn't expecting you to weave it into the story, so I really enjoyed that.

Well they are 'Clone Bros' ;D kinda like the Clone Troopers of Star Wars Animated Series, they are NOT the alien universe androids like Ash or Bishop or David... they are actually 'Blade Runner' Replicants, One is a Nexus 7 and the other two are Nexus 8's, and just like that universe they are treated rather badly 'Replicants were used Off-world as slave labor, in the hazardous exploration and colonization of other planets', incase you didnt notice, the end phone call... Thats the Tyrell Corporation logo  ;)

Congrats though, bud! I thought it turned out really well.


Yeah I remember reading Ridley Scott discussing the difference between Alien Androids, made of materials, chemicals, bolts and wires built in a factory etc.. And Blade Runner Replicants being made of flesh, bone and blood and are grown androids.

Thanks Corporal Hicks, Glad you liked it! Please spread the word, this film is for All Alien/Aliens even Predator Fans!

I think you probably could've cut it down a good five or so minutes but I enjoyed it! Clearly a lot of work went into it. Very nice costume design.

Also 10/10 on that opening title sequence, just beautiful.


Yeah was actually longer, trimmed it down to what I thought was about right, I've had people tell me the same, to long, others told me 'to short' wanted more, I don't know who to please :) glad you enjoyed it, it was allot of work, I'm so glad its over lol

Yeah the outfits, they had allot of revisions, some were terrible combos, before I settled for the final look.

Thanks yeah I wanted something reminiscent of the Alien and Aliens openings, kinda combined.



Quote from: BlueMarsalis79 on Jul 08, 2022, 01:05:48 PMLovely opening.

I spotted a lot of Halo.

Spoiler
And nice use of the original Alien transmission.

Thank you so much, yeah the opening I'm quite proud of, to the tiny ship showing how insignificant man is in the big black universe etc

Yeah Halo because their were allot of free 3D assets for it, plus wanted like an updated look to the world of Aliens, its like 30 years on, so wanted something different, including the pulse rifle etc even added my own thing the 'Owl' drive  :)

Spoiler
Yeah the transmission, I wanted my take on its origin, I actually have a whole new terrifying take on the Jockeys, might do that in the future, will see  ;)

Evening People, my apologies for zero updates since my first post, I have been rather busy with something called life, so I haven't been able to come on here and show you guys what I have been up too.

I got rather ambitious with my little film, its running time is now 25 minutes and its become way more complex than my original vision, but I am happy to say I'm on track for MID 2022 as right now I have a good rough cut of the film, that I will be working on, sharpening and polishing, until this little beast is nice and shiny by around June/July.
