Hey everyone. So I get that quite a few people are not understanding my films and that's fine, I actually prefer people to not be spoonfed answers. Some things to consider about this film: 1. The budget was $0 2. All the "actors" were friends and relatives of mine 3. The film hopefully makes you think. As for the ending, yea I don't know why people are having problems understanding it because it is exactly the same as the start of the film. The main character's original decision to get his jacket alters the future and creates the time loop but in a parallel universe he makes a difference decision and therefore never discovers the time loop and the future version of himself disappears. Anyways, thanks so much for watching my films I'll have more posted again soon!!!
All I can say is: Nice escape from the loop, though a bit rash - it makes more questions than those that it answer. Lets call the closing char A and the starting char B; A had already gone through all the trials needed to understand what and where he was, the only two solid proof of is the tent and the phone. The phone, being solid and data, had a past-state as well therefore: what is in his A-phone *it is not, yet,* nor will ever be in B-phone because B char decided not to do the thing. So, **why on earth would you erase proof of time-space travel**? ;)
Robert Fatt It is a very nice script and movie itself. I liked very much the loop transition from one's awareness/focus to the other one, at 6:30. That is a very great idea. Thanks!
Dude... The plot twist in the end. That he decided not to grab his jacket and therefore it all didn't happen. Genius, really, bravo on this short film. It gave me chills.
It's not about the acting. I could go on about how true to life the acting was. The concept was excellent. Time, space, travel so good. Love your work Rob.
I knew we were in for a wild ride when he had to announce that he was going to walk 5 feet away to get his jacket in the tent, then all hell broke lose when he closed the zipper before putting his jacket on. I am still baffled. Thumbs up, I enjoyed it.
My first reaction to your comment "MarkMan63" was that you were very correct. But unless my jacket was within arms reach of the entrance and I had to completely enter the tent to get my jacket I would actually zip the entrance closed mainly to keep insects out as several other people have pointed out. I know this because I just went camping for almost a week.
Loved the ending. I know it confused some people but it made sense to me. Since he made the decision to go get the jacket he got stuck in the loop came to the 3rd repeat, he didn't choose to get the jacket therefore ending the loop. Also the very very end was the 3rd or 2nd time the loop person trying to catch up with the 1st guy. It's confusing but watch a couple series of Dr Who and you'll get it xD
That was a joy to watch, thanks for making/sharing it. I am inspired by what you can do with a compelling story & good editing vs. a ton of props/expensive effects.
ha ha getting his jacket was the key that started the whole time travelling cycle...... good one....... but you forget the time travel rule, that no individual can occupy the same space in time!
I liked the idea. Much better then many sci-fi short films here on YT that use a lot of CGI to impress people. To me the story and the idea is the most important and I really liked the idea in this film. Shows that you don´t need specials effects when you have a story or a cool idea.
For being a $0 budget film, it was well-written and execute with such perfection. If you ever decide start doing animations and are in the need for voice actors, let me know.
BRILLIANT. The whole idea of unzipping a tent and ,bizarrely, finding urself in another camping ground. Dang. Would never have imagined it . But ,suggested, seems so plausible SOMEHOW WOW. I keep noticing these short amateur sc-fis are out-doing Hollywood for originality. We need apps so Robert Fatt can cut out big brother and the middlemen. Produce their own and market direct to internet. The apps have to appear and Hollywood is floundering. Be patient guys. Love ur work
Great short. I liked the score as it matched the mystery, and gave the film as a whole a great sense of wonder. My main note would be the ending, not that it was bad, it just didn't stick. I think a close up of the protagonist revealing the change in the time loop, would eliminate most of the confusion. It would help us know how important that line is. I had to rewatch the ending and search for what happened. I didn't get it because I didn't know where to look. A close up shows us where to look and what is important. A close up would also allow you to play with the timing in editing to allow for greater drama to his decision that ultimately changes the course of time. But yeah, great job, that's just my 2 pennies.
I've watched this short for the 3rd time. It was very good. The story can be followed very easily. Not a bad loop story. I love that you used the tent rather than using some effects makes the story a bid more believable. Your editing and compiling is great! Keep up the great work. I'm assuming that these were not paid actors and they may be friends of your but overall not bad on their energy. The music always started at the right moment, Builds up great suspense that the audience can relate to. Great job!
I thought this was great. I see so many short films on youtube with flashy cgi effects that looks good but they forget to tell a story or have a point. I'm looking forward to the next one!
This needed a little more "glossing" (explanation) for the viewer. So much happened that I forgot the original reason he went into the tent ⛺️. And for me to piece that with a parallel universe was too much even for this sci-fi, time travel movie addict. I didn't even know we were dealing with parallel universes in this movie, and I had trouble getting the time travel aspect because the landscapes changed so drastically. Also, there was no continuity between the times he traveled to, nor any markers to indicate where or how far he had traveled. This was a good effort, and fun to watch. It just didn't quite convey its message except to the extremely bright.
I love a good time travel movie. The teleport bit is unusual and adds to the fun of figuring it out. Thanks a bunch for the effort, I really enjoyed it. POSSIBLE SPOILER ALERT (don't hit read more until you've seen the film) Guy travels 5 times and winds up back at origin. He meets himself and is sent back to do it all again. Each time he arrives at one of the travel points (on the second lap) he's in a slightly different location and fails to catch up with the original trip self. I figure he thinks the "him" he's chasing has the answers, although if he paused to think about it, he'd work out this isn't the case as he was the original guy a short time ago and didn't know squat then. Eventually he winds up back at origin and asks friends "am I here". Friends have no idea what he's talking about so he figures the first trip version of himself will be there shortly. Sure enough, a short while later the first trip version turns up and the awaiting (second trip version) tells him to do another lap and it will all work out. The first trip version gets back in the tent and does another lap. The second trip version has a go with his mates but it doesn't work. Fatigued, the second trip verson takes a nap. End of story in this reality. In a totally different reality, the original guy (before he travels anywhere) decides he doesn't need a jacket and the possibility of travelling is extinguished. Ostensibly, the guy that dissapears is the first returning guy from a trip in this reality that now can't happen so he dissapears. However, if this was the case, the dissapearing guy wouldn't exist in the first place to be dissapeared so he's actually a copy from the first reality. Why he dissapeared is beyond me. Why a second copy (who arrived in a tent some short distance away), remained is also beyond me. However he showed some smarts in realising he wasn't in his original reality any more and may have deleted the photo to try and avoid being deleted himself. We'll never know if this worked or not. It seems unlikely that he deleted the photo in an attempt to delete himself (it's a hell of an intellectual leap and even if he thought he was a copy of himself in a different reality, would you delete yourself if you knew you were a copy of yourself?) I also don't know why some versions of the traveller have a bandaid on their left hand and some don't? (is this just a continuity error or does it further complicate things?) What is the very first guy to get into the tent looking for (or concealing) after he puts on the jacket? I thought it might be the phone the photo was taken with but that's his phone so he'd have it on him if he wanted it and I can't think of a reason for leaving it in the tent. Still scratching my head and enjoying the itch, thanks again.
Chris K Don't quote me on this, but I think this is a multiverse setting, to dumb shit down: think Flash (the comics turned tv dude); When he goes to enough speed he breaks time-space barrier and can freely choose another verse to go into, though that verse already has a flash in it (and because we are talking multiverse, it may not have a flash yet, might already have been, and so on) and the flash that originally left his verse as also not left his verse. ... If that makes it any better, if not: wiki the thing - it's pretty interesting :) The first one disappeared to make the loop not a loop, and the second one didn't because ... well.. multiverse; in order for the loop to close itself there must be a version of has and has not. Though no one agrees if "Multiverse" is physics or philosophy so you got that going for your understanding :P
Really nice music! The cinematography is impressive too. This is a cool little film. It freaked me out a bit when he teleported to the Blue Lake because that's only a few hundred metres from my house haha. You and Jared did a really solid job capturing the beauty of these locations. Thanks for sharing this story, Robbie!
Great job! I loved the switch from teleportation to time travel. For constructive criticism I'd say that when making a time travel based story, make sure that everything falls into line and makes sense. For example why did he change his mind? Why did the future guy disappear at the end, while the picture on the phone didn't go away? Who was the one that deleted the picture? Make sure that you look at different time travel theories (i.e. different time lines, predestination, time loops, etc.) and make sure your whole story fits. Otherwise you did a great job with the short. Thanks.
I'm not sure I agree with your assessment. They ran afoul of one of the most difficult problems with time travel, which is cutting off loops of time that no longer connect to the main timeline. What that means to the version that disappeared is an open question - does he continue on in his broken timeline but in his the person that disappeared was his earlier version? Who knows, because if time travel is possible the ramifications depend largely on whether we live in a malleable multiverse, a fixed multiverse (which means the later version is just gone) or a single timeline that is subject to change, which is the messiest of the bunch and usually seems to ultimately end with a single timeline in which time travel is never invented (after an infinite number of changes, or none, depending on how you look at it).
+Bumble Bee It's a simple time loop which is erased by him changing his mind about getting his jacket. The first time through the loop, he doesn't know what is going on and gets told to go back in the tent. The second time through, he's trying to catch his younger self (why?) but his younger self gets back in the tent and teleports (and temports?) away before the later self can do anything. He then _becomes_ the one who told the younger self to go back in the tent, followed by becoming the one who is erased at the end.
Morel Agear Ohhh, I didn't get that bit about him changing his mind with the jacket, and now you've laid all that out in a simple way I understand the entire thing (except the "why" for catching his younger self, but clearly thats normal) Thank you!
That tent came from Walmart...I know, cause I have one. It's a "Glitching Tent." And they are for real! I still have mine...yet I was in line to return it, cause I thought it was glitching, and then I thought..."Wait! I can travel, yet I don't have to break down the camping site, nor set up the next site, and I don't have to pay for gas, and I don't have to drive", and I totally realized...wow, this $49.99 tent was a real deal even if it does glitch once in awhile!!!
must've been a pain to carry around the tent everywhere while filming. pitching up a tent just to film a few seconds, and than take it down again? Than repeat? yeah, that must have been aggravating! EPIC JOB GUYS!!!
they probably made a vacation trip out of all these shoots........staying there for a while and boiling water on the billy can or throwing shrimp on the barbie ha ha
They didn't carry it around. Behind the scenes they probably all got in it and just shot in the locations where the tent teleported to. Or they just got some _butch_ guys to do all the lifting. ...probably teleported which is why we may never see them again.
20-One K but Einstein and Hawking agree with ExtremehamJkd and so do I. Time is just the fourth dimension in the space time continuum according to Einsteins special theory of relativity.
Very cool concept and nice job on a no budget short. I think the ending wasn't as good as the rest of the film built it up to be but I still love what you did. Great work!
twins, and your telling us it cost nothing to move from location, to location, it is interesting. would weird me out if something like this really happened happened! would be worse if you couldn't find your way back!
+PublicShit I've been camping. Whatever you need, is the farthest from the entrance or the least accessible place. So crawling in is not my issue, and putting it on inside the tent, as awkward as that would be, is not--ZIPPING THE TENT in order to put on a jacket is!
Maybe he is just a bit tired or hangover and he doesn't really pay full attention to what he is doing. You shouldn't try to make sense of everything. In your real life, does every movement you do always make sense ?
Could be spain maybe? I think the beach in the movie " OLD" seems cool but I bet its someone's private property or they filmed in winter, that's why it was empty!
this is why i wish stuff like this were real if i had the chance to go back in time and redo everything ( i know this has nothing do do with the film) but i would cry my ass off if i had a chance to rredo my life again and start over in the 7th grade............... GREAT FILM TO
Before the very ending, like after he disappears coming out of the tent I thought it meant he was now stuck in a closed-circuit loop, just stuck going in and out of the tent forever, haha
After camping from festival to festival for the last 2 months i really enjoyed this concept tent teleportation around awesome spots. Brillant. Wish you the best Robert
Pretty cool. Vaguely reminds me of the uber awesome Vernor Vinge novella 'Stranded In Realtime'... so much can be done in a time + distance travel scenario.
The reaction of coming out of your tent and just scratching your head and smiling really just killed it for me. Pretty sure you'd just go, "WHAT THE FUCK!?!?"
The most fictional part of this video is that his tent zipper never gets stuck. Great Film!

U said $0 budget i m sold ! I absolutely loved the shots

@@robertwalker5521Nope , didnt see any.
8 years and it just arrived on my utube feed, well thats time travel for ya, so when you read this in the future that was a great fun film, Cheers.
What are people talking about, confusing? It's not confusing! It's amazing! That ending had me in stitches.
He zipped the tent shut for a jacket, not to change underwear.
If you have to crawl into a tent and feel the need to close the hatch in order to put a jacket on then you deserve to be punished by time travel
lol its Australia, you never know what deadly thing is gonna crawl/fly/slither in
Agree, open tent and reach in - grab jacket out of tent - close tent - put jacket on.
😅😅😆

Markman63, if you only knew how close to the truth you were, (As I just read the director's explanation) the jacket was the key
"A group of teens spend an amazing night in the woods doing drugs"
Haaaaaaaaa
Been there
@@lVltizzleCVFC and got the T-shirt.
Brian Roberts Hahaha
I've never saw or met anyone that age who is without a phone with a camera or GPS

Friends are like: Got to take pictures. No pictures, it didn't happen.
More of a fantasy than science fiction, because the mechanism was totally unexplained. Back where he began!! I liked it!
had to watch the ending twice to get the break from the loop. Nice short, very well put together.
To Robert Fatt: Never defend your work to people who have never tried anything more than bitching. Your work is excellent and well done
That was a joy to watch, thanks for making/sharing it. I am inspired by what you can do with a compelling story & good editing vs. a ton of props/expensive effects.
This has so much potential, two suns or another planet
ha ha getting his jacket was the key that started the whole time travelling cycle......
good one....... but you forget the time travel rule, that no individual can occupy the same space in time!
Only on Time Cop...
Yes exactly, but it's fantasy and entertainment and not trying to be real or exact facts.
I enjoyed it. Simple, minimal and a time travel movie that wasn't about trying to prevent the death of a loved one or undo old regrets.
I liked the idea. Much better then many sci-fi short films here on YT that use a lot of CGI to impress people. To me the story and the idea is the most important and I really liked the idea in this film. Shows that you don´t need specials effects when you have a story or a cool idea.
Lot of haters out there, for a free short? And it was great, had me thinking....isn’t that what it’s about? Thanks for the film, I enjoyed it.
This was terrific!!! I love the budget too. Great story and directing. Two thumbs up!
I liked it....no explanation needed!
This is what happens when you travel without the DOCTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah you get to travel in time without a british smart-ass ;)
Funny you mention that. This reminded me of a comedy relief episode with the doctor, Rory and amelia pond.
right.
Who
could become a good series, where you teleport around the country and maybe have some interesting adventures.GO FOR IT
Awesome film thanks
For being a $0 budget film, it was well-written and execute with such perfection. If you ever decide start doing animations and are in the need for voice actors, let me know.
Nothing costs 0
I think it was great, especially considering you only used a tent for the effects.
BRILLIANT. The whole idea of unzipping a tent and ,bizarrely, finding urself in another camping ground. Dang. Would never have imagined it . But ,suggested, seems so plausible SOMEHOW WOW. I keep noticing these short amateur sc-fis are out-doing Hollywood for originality. We need apps so Robert Fatt can cut out big brother and the middlemen. Produce their own and market direct to internet. The apps have to appear and Hollywood is floundering. Be patient guys. Love ur work

At first I thought it was The Lake House, except with a tent. Then I realised it was a young man looking out / searching / or finding himself.
I've watched this short for the 3rd time. It was very good. The story can be followed very easily. Not a bad loop story. I love that you used the tent rather than using some effects makes the story a bid more believable.

It’s like a Disney version of primer without giving me a migraine and a nosebleed
A minute change in the end, lol .. keen observance is needed, and you made me watch it for a 2nd time! The film is good :)
I loved this! MORE!!!!,
Seems like a really cheap way to travel. Where can I purchase one of those tents? :o)
Cabalas has them.
KodenameKrusty
Cheap way to travel?? To hell with that part, it's hella merciful on traffic issues!
Mind blowing thought😂😂
WALMART
The twilight zone general store.
All those beautiful places . . . *I* want a tent like that!
I thought this was great. I see so many short films on youtube with flashy cgi effects that looks good but they forget to tell a story or have a point. I'm looking forward to the next one!

I dont know why but this gave me super big goosebumps
I love this short film! Great cinematography and the concept is really cool. Very inspiring (:
Excellent! intriguing without sexism or barfs! thank you so much. Stay high.
This held my attention. With my attention span that is no easy trick.
short term memory helps too, i'd seen this before and totally forgot the story line, still great the second time too!
moo moo , mine to , deep down I’m à goldfish.
I love to watch short movies... a lot of time they are almost shit, but sometimes they are GREAT, VERY NICE, like yours!
Congratulations from Brazil!
Great ending - where the decision not to get the jacket - breaks the loop. Good job!
EYES OPEN 😯😯

Excellent concept. 👍👍
He was sent back in time to protect himself from altering time.
I always thought what would I do, if I find another me from the past or future .....Loved it

who knew time travel would be such a pain in the ass
This is brilliant man, very confusing but amazing hahaha!
Thanks I'm glad you liked it! I think some people don't realise just how low budget this film was haha :P
Robert Fatt Yeah i really did, Yeah me too but you have great cinematography and acting! thats all you really need dont you! ;)
Matty Gadeke the acting was crap though...
Three teens casually drinking water in the woods. Only one tent. Suspicious ;)
What editing software do you use? Especially your cloning shots; it was really effective keep it up :)
Mr.Robert, i like the way u presented d characters.
Good imagination, bravo on the creativity.
so many questions. I mostly wanna know what happened to the version of the guy who was chasing the other one. Did i miss something?
+Bumble Bee It's a simple time loop which is erased by him changing his mind about getting his jacket.
The first time through the loop, he doesn't know what is going on and gets told to go back in the tent.

Nice twist at the end
I was waiting for a binary sun at the sunset scene
That tent came from Walmart...I know, cause I have one. It's a "Glitching Tent." And they are for real! I still have mine...yet I was in line to return it, cause I thought it was glitching, and then I thought..."Wait! I can travel, yet I don't have to break down the camping site, nor set up the next site, and I don't have to pay for gas, and I don't have to drive", and I totally realized...wow, this $49.99 tent was a real deal even if it does glitch once in awhile!!!
must've been a pain to carry around the tent everywhere while filming. pitching up a tent just to film a few seconds, and than take it down again? Than repeat? yeah, that must have been aggravating! EPIC JOB GUYS!!!
they probably made a vacation trip out of all these shoots........staying there for a while and boiling water on the billy can or throwing shrimp on the barbie ha ha
They didn't carry it around. Behind the scenes they probably all got in it and just shot in the locations where the tent teleported to.
Or they just got some _butch_ guys to do all the lifting.
...probably teleported which is why we may never see them again.
Could have used a pop up tent.
End catches up with the beginning or since time is a man made understanding to put us where we should be at any given moment in a circular pattern.
See Canon timelines change with free will
See Canon uh, no, time is the 4th dimension.
ExtremehamJkd very wrong
20-One K but Einstein and Hawking agree with ExtremehamJkd and so do I. Time is just the fourth dimension in the space time continuum according to Einsteins special theory of relativity.
Very cool concept and nice job on a no budget short. I think the ending wasn't as good as the rest of the film built it up to be but I still love what you did. Great work!
Is he trapped in a time loop now
Great short film..
Its possible like glitch. Some times.
But u can't find it any where..
Awesome direction 👍
that was ''intents'' lol
Cee Didley Arrrh. Arrrh. Arrrh. Arrrh.
Ba-dum tsssssss
Good one (smile)
They should canvas the area for the other guy
Oh no, no, no, no, noooo, noooo, noooo..........*GEEEEEAHAHAHAHAHA!*
We get it ! Keep trying ! That's how you learn !
gimme that darned tent!
Jon Manilenio I would have chilled at the beach
Me too.
Could be an awesome and brilliant commercial for a Tent Company or for just camping in general...
And the young lady dosent care. She want a selfie with the guy😂😂😂
That was a cool little movie with some great scenery. Nice work.
Very few short films on youtube capture my attention, this one I watched through to the end, it was terrific!
Cut this into a tent advert and you'll have a winner.
twins, and your telling us it cost nothing to move from location, to location, it is interesting. would weird me out if something like this really happened happened! would be worse if you couldn't find your way back!
Uhhh, I think you time traveled. Did you write "happened' and then go back in time and write "happened" again??
Where can I buy that tent😉😁
The main actor needs to stop rubbin his head every single time he comes out the tent it becomes so annoying lol
Like he just loves fealin his hair the entire time thats all he does lol
version of Shin Lim
It's a Time Loop. He can't stop that.
He's got time lice.
Maybe in the future he has no hair, and he just can't believe he got hair again
That was awesome. Imagine what you could do with an actual budget.
People seem to on go about the crap acting. The short film is more about the story for me than the acting.
Really appreciate this comment man! This film was shot literally on a $0 budget :P
and i forgot to say that i liked the ending
Robert Fatt yup i've made 60 short films, (most of them are on my youtube page) and the combined budget would be about $1000, nice job.
dashcam Dog I love how everyone assumes all film makers have access to good actors.
story was shit too though
Fantastic ending. Very good work, well developed idea and promising future! thanks for these 10 minutes of differents thoughts. Hope to see you soon!!
Cool script, but why didn't the guy grabbed his jacket out of the tent and put it on outside instead of climbing inside in the first place?
+PublicShit I've been camping. Whatever you need, is the farthest from the entrance or the least accessible place. So crawling in is not my issue, and putting it on inside the tent, as awkward as that would be, is not--ZIPPING THE TENT in order to put on a jacket is!
Maybe he is just a bit tired or hangover and he doesn't really pay full attention to what he is doing. You shouldn't try to make sense of everything. In your real life, does every movement you do always make sense ?
PublicShit, because if he had we wouldn't have had a short movie to watch.
Omg great ending, nice job on the film guys, completely understood. I am not giving any spoilers
I completely understand the ending :D
Flashee pls explain what happened .. explain full story
What did you understand in the end
he change the future by not picking his jacket, so thats why the guy vanish
Where is that beach???
Could be spain maybe? I think the beach in the movie " OLD" seems cool but I bet its someone's private property or they filmed in winter, that's why it was empty!
Nice! Will be looking to pay to get to watch your films in the future!
this is why i wish stuff like this were real if i had the chance to go back in time and redo everything ( i know this has nothing do do with the film) but i would cry my ass off if i had a chance to rredo my life again and start over in the 7th grade............... GREAT FILM TO
I REALLY ENJOYED IT !! very cool
Before the very ending, like after he disappears coming out of the tent I thought it meant he was now stuck in a closed-circuit loop, just stuck going in and out of the tent forever, haha
'You have just entered the shadows of the Twilight Zone' Good job
I LOVE the locations!!!!!!!!
After camping from festival to festival for the last 2 months i really enjoyed this concept tent teleportation around awesome spots. Brillant. Wish you the best Robert
Pretty cool. Vaguely reminds me of the uber awesome Vernor Vinge novella 'Stranded In Realtime'... so much can be done in a time + distance travel scenario.
Absolutely loved it, I think.
The reaction of coming out of your tent and just scratching your head and smiling really just killed it for me. Pretty sure you'd just go, "WHAT THE FUCK!?!?"
Pretty cool! I love time travel themed movies and this was a cool one with no crazy SFX!! Nice job to all those involved!! 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
THIS is great fun. Loved It. Time travel stories are awesome and you pushed it around nicely and softly- very satisfying - thanks. Hard work paid off.
Thanks I spent days trying to think up an interesting ending!
There's an after credits scene btw
The labdscape is from the ordovician??
awesome idea! what a great short.
It was really excellent work. great loop.. aplaasss :-)
Do they sell this tent on Amazon?
I liked it, things don't need to make sense, just make you think, and you did that.
