Nice! You've got talent my friend. Keep up the good work. For the many who have posted here who can only critricize, ask yourself this: "can I create anything like this myself?" And next time, why not state what you do like about a video, along with your critique. It is much more social and friendly to do so. Also, if you can't create anything like this, maybe you aren't qualified in the first place to critique those who have the talent and ability to do so. Be nice!
Why does every indie short film about fighting and space have a trailer where the narrator uses a ridiculous undertone to their voice, just talk normally, your ridiculous accent ruins what you're trying to say.
I think the concept of the trailer was a good idea, filming of the characters wasn't bad. Yea the voice over's need some work but personally I don't hold it against them. It was overall a good attempt. BTW, what's the music that starts at 1:18? I swear I've heard it before, maybe from a video game?
This is the result of too much motivation, too little talent, and only basic production and post skills. Clearly, the number of thumbs-down show that viewers are not idiots, and can easily smell student-grade projects...yet the producers cannot.
Learn from this y'all. These types of projects are common and plentiful, yet they continue. Why?
The greatest skill you can have, in the absence of legitimate talent, is good taste. This...is a childish project which can only mimic. (and not well)
I like it. Try and keep you wide shots a little tighter especially when you are using a green screen. The space craft scenes are cool but you have to match the lighting a little better and change the voice over. Not that is isn't any good, it's just not right for what you want to portray. Otherwise great job and keep at it. Jay
@Leftyotism It's a short amateur film dude. The producer sincerely apologizes to you for not having an $80 million Hollywood budget. He hopes his trailer wasn't so traumatic for you that it ruined your life.
Looks nice for a personal project! You may want to hire someone older than 14 for your voice-overs, because it totally kills what the trailer is trying to achieve.
From a movie stand point, not too great, but from a indie production stand point, it's not bad. The visuals are actually much better than a lot of fan made works, although some parts are better than others.
Keep at it. Not my cup of tea, but I can tell a lot of work went into this.
To everybody else. Don't criticize unless you can do better. Modeling, texturing, animating, and compositing are not simple, "do when you want," things. 30sec clips can take months for a solo project.
go to fiverr and pay a pro five bucks to do a voiceover. and dont listen to the crap. The effects are pretty damn good for a nothing budget. good job guys
For some reason I prefer movies in space where they have all the noises that you wouldnt actually here, its much more entertaining than just viewing ships flying around without thunderous booms!
man... what a cheesy trailer. the cg looks bad enough... couldn't raise enough money for the animated sequences??? and the storyline!!! not very original.... bad release...
what a cheesy trailer.... cant wait to see the film... not!!!... the cg looks like crap... couldn't raise enough money for the animated sequences?? well, that's that.... and the storyline... hmmm.... not very original
Crap, and yet more crap... worse than sy-fy channels inhouse movies. If, on the other hand, this was made in your family garage with a few mates helping out then well done. If you spent more than 2000 dollars on it then you are going to make a loss.
Sounds horrible, looks even worse, and just in general confuses me how people have so much money and time to just piss away down the drain making something as crappy as this.
Blomkamp's new flick is called Elysium...just change the name of your movie. i know it sucks man, but you won't be taken seriously when your flick has the same name as a movie from a academy award nominated sci fi director.
oh my god man thats amazing!!!! Ive been trying to do stuff to this standard for a couple of years now and failed extremely, I cant wait to see the whole thin
I can't wait to see this. No seriously, if it will cost me money i'm willing to pay. The effects are so awesome. So. Awesome. You make great use of special effects and GreenScreening (Not sure if you used that?). Oh, and the animation is WAY better than anything i've made with Blender so far. (Also, i can't believe i'm actually the first to rate and comment, and this only has 30 views.)
Nice! You've got talent my friend. Keep up the good work. For the many who have posted here who can only critricize, ask yourself this: "can I create anything like this myself?"

Well, gfx are EXCELLENT. Kudos. Must have taken forever.
Music's pretty good and appropriate.
Story looks like it will need a fair amount of work. (Looks like a clone of a billion other sci-fi flix)
Voice-over, sorry, is pretty poor. Ask Frank Chavez. Man's got gravitas. And a fanbase.
Overall, yeah, at this stage it looks like a one-or-two-star film (that's five-star for nerds), but it has potential.
Good work
