Title: Possible fan film "Olympus"
Post by: King on Aug 01, 2012, 11:16:32 PM
Hello everyone, so i've seen Prometheus twice, thought it was a generally good film. lots of unanswered questions, a few plot holes here and there, otherwise i thought it wasn't bad.Scott's portrayal of the engineers/Space jockey was not bad either in this particular story. i personally wished that he stayed true to the original mysteriousness of the space jockey being a creature rather than a suit, anyway moving on, i am currently working on a fan film spin off to alien but changing the storyline. Basically pretending Prometheus never happened, either that or continuing onward from Prometheus. And for the die hard alien fans i might be sticking to the original space jockey concept of it being a weird  looking alien creature with a trunk . the idea of tidea of them creating humans sort of removes that feeling that they are a separate lone species that no one has ever seen before. the story might either be a prequel to alien or might be an original spin off but sequel to Prometheus which will be entitled "Olympus". let me know what you guys think.

You only want to know what we think of the final product.  Make it the way you want to make it.

Yea, of course I'll make it the way I want, just like to know if people are looking forward to seeing or their opinions towards the film. But yea obviously in the end the films going be the way I envisioned it be, and thanks for the advice :)

after 2 long busy months, i recently started working on my film, i started out on a cgi set that i may use green screen for, this is of course the famous pilot chamber , the set was modeled in blender and edited in after effects, this is a test footage just to show you guys what things could look like.

the circular floor still needs some work and polishing but hopefully it'll be done.
