A film by Syama Pedersen, creator of Astartes Fan made animation, glad to hear he is leading this project. I thought Games Workshop ate him alive.
Where does it say it's made by the Astartes creator? Pretty sure he works full time for GW now.
I hope he's doing another 40K project. This looks promising, but his style was perfect for Warhammer.
@@Omni-Man just at the end, the credits screen, his name is there. He is done with GW maybe, and not surprisingly.
@@Omni-Man Can see it at the end credits. Was really fun working with Syama on this, huge ASTARTES fan.
I thought it had a similar vibe to his previous work - really nice to see it continuing in a new form.
You don't know me Mr. Perdersen, but your animation saved my soul for the Emperor at a low point in my life.. I wish good you good fortune in the decades to come..
I really believe that Syama Pedersen is the best Director/Concept artist, he really is at another level. I love the job that he is able to create.
this was made with ai
Evidence for that?
@@josiadorthestrong1031 just look at it?!?! how can you not tell thats ai
@@jonmcb168 because I’ve seen the creator’s past work and it was made long before AI took over. This doesn’t really look that much like AI, either.
@@jonmcb168 You have no idea what you're talking about and it's disrespectful to the amazing team of artists behind this.
The music and the theme reminded me so much of ASTARTES fan made animation. Now I saw who created this and I am very happy to see ASTARTES creator (Syama Pedersen) in new light with a new project. Hopefully this will fluorish and go beyond warhammer 40k.
Seems he got quickly fed up with GW's usal bullshit, I hope he gets the notoriety he deserves.
Hollywood needs an injection of creatives like the team behind this. This is amazing
Nah. They shouldn't go to Hollywood. They should go independent. And we should support them
@@j0hncarpIndependent all the way!!
We need more artists just doing their own thing, and thrive. I love to see more people create works like these! ❤
Neon & A24 ❤
100%!! BUT..I rather see them succeed without hollywood. which is obviously possible looking at the quality of this trailer 👍👍👍
This kinda looks like dune so I don't know what you're talking about
This is some old Métal Hurlant shit and I am LOVING IT.
No métal Hurlant vibes here
@@Sogger2Agahim Metal Hurlant / Heavy Metal ( The monthly graphic magazine) Vibe is very much here. I don't know how you don't see it.
First I cought the vibes like in Astartes, second I recognises the horns sound and finally read his name at the end
Gosh the style is perfect, this gonna rock!
Glad that Peterson was not buried by those corpos of Games Workshop
It uses the same music and very similar cinematography, it's too similar imo
@@Arc_Eden
I see it as more of a new beginning of his cinematic work after GW tried to burn him down.
@@Arc_Eden I believe it just what he wanted to do from the beginning, but was unable to due restrictions it seemed
What we saw in Astartes were just some minutes (wonderful btw), a kind of a trailer. The whole movie of at least half an hour is a different stuff. If it is as well thought out and mysterious, as we saw earlier, it is gonna be a rare gem
@@Arc_EdenI mean this wholeheartedly when I say, no one agrees with you STFU and sit down
With a nice dose of Moebius art style.
Wasnt gonna watch this until I saw 'ASTARTES' in the comments.. This trailer was an absolute work of art. Zero dialogue and yet so powerful to watch. Truly well done. ❤
it was made using ai anyone can do this shit
@@jonmcb168” Anyone can do this shit” so why haven't you? Go make some beautiful movies for us and come back.
@@winstonpeanutbutter its made using ai though
@@jonmcb168 How was it made using AI? This is definitely rendered in a 3D DCC
@@jonmcb168durrrrrrr
Makes me think of Neill Blomkamp's Oats Studios shorts, which is to mean, the highest praise possible
Exactly! I was actually looking at the credits to see if they were in it.
Love the design of the soldiers face protection as well. Reminds me of that really old cyber punk trailer from 2010 I think.
More Dune than Dune. ❤
Agreed but this guy is an absolute legend. He made Astartes by himself, which is the best warhammer animation ever made.
That's the vibes I got
Yeah so for those of you wondering, Huxley was an old game project that I believe never actually came out, when I was in a game design camp as a kid we talked about the possibilities and problems that an mmofps might have and the game was used as an example - this was back when we still mainly got game news from magazines. There is also an NFT project called Huxley which has some graphic novels and lore. I’m not actually sure if they are connected in any way other than by name but this appears to use designs from the NFT project.
Edit: yes it appears this is for the NFT game
The old Huxley died in beta. It had a very Gears of War vibe to it, not much like this aside from being postapocalypse. And yes, this is for the NFT game.
@@westrim Serious question. Is this a trailer for a game or a movie?
@@thenewgray This is what I found by going to their website. "The first prequel book in the HUXLEY universe telling of Max’s early days in the Ronin army. As he fights in the AI wars he finds himself amidst an empire-crushing conspiracy."
This movie does not exist.
Fitting...We are all left hanging....................................
Yeah, I like how the trailer isn't a mini movie but just shows you enough to see it's vivid and not much else.
@@JesseDishner That’s his style. When the action kicks in, you wont want it to end.
People talk 40k, but all I see is Dune (202x). Not a bad thing either way.
Somehow everything is Warhammer for me. For example, this is clearly Warhammer 20k,
deep into the dark age of technology
@@Nakorli because warhammer takes inspiration from everything and becomes... nothing.
@@Nakorli I would make the argument it is age strife, full society colapse with some AI still wondering around.
I see a lot of Heavy Metal inspiration here. Serpieri’s “Druuna”, some Moebius, some Howard, some Druillet…I really miss that era of sci-fi.
Perfect trailer! Holds you the whole time and yet nothing has been revealed. Epic!
Really glad Syama is working on this. I see his influence. Astartes was brilliant, glad he’s still creating.
These Kenshi mods are getting crazy.
Highly underrated game
YES
Bro, I can't wait for the sequel.
Ouroboros aesthetic
Glad I wasn't the only one who felt Kenshi in this trailer.
If I remember correctly about 15 years ago there was a game in development by the same name that never came out.
Yeah, based on a Brave New World.
That's the only reason i clicked lol.
Yeah, the game was Huxley by Webzen. They sold out and the game was buried. it was actually quite fun.
@@ThadanMusic I was pretty stoked about it just by looking at the screenshots. Good you got to play it. Wish it had materialized.
Oh my gosh totally forgot about that, I was so hyped for it.
This looks just insane, never heard from this but it looks stunning
Quality of aesthetic, atmosphere and shots direction is of the chart. Epic.
WOWZERS that was beautiful from start to finish
I simply adore the Armor! Reminds me of that 70s 80s style sci fi armor design. Very simple yet Iconic! And the Machine priest is something straight out of Warhammer! Love the work your doing it's truly inspiring!
Syama Pederson deserves all the money and attention
@@frankjaeger2659 and nfts
This is more Star Wars than anything Disney has put out in the last few years. This is the level that Star Wars was supposed to get to. Glad we do have good space content!
Looks stunning, happy to see this world and characters again:)
How nice it is to see the familiar handwriting of a true master! Thank you for being with humanity and for your creativity! From Russia with love!
Gives me Dune II vibes. i love the cinematography. cant begin to imagine the time it would take to direct the shots, model everything, rig and animate everything.
it kinda remind me to butlerian jihad
I still don't know if this is a movie or video game. However, it is a trailer done RIGHT. Slow, atmospheric, loads of subtlety. Brilliant. Such a refreshing turn in a junkpile of trailers that are loud and over-the-top.
Ben Mauro and Syama together?? Now this is EPIC!!!!
Dude Dude DUDE. Imma watch. oh yes I will. I love the Astartes shorts. This man knows how to make epic and awsome appear on screen. Chills, i got chills man and I don't even understand this universe. Whoever is in this team, I love them.
Wwwoooohhhaaa. Very 70s 80s sci fi vibes with spectacular cinematography.
(Eng) It's a masterpiece! Yeah, it's a full-length movie! I'm already impressed! First Gundam comes out, then you'll release your brilliance. From 2023 to now, I'm excited for hyper-realistic animation! It's alive! Thank you so much!
(Rus) Да это же шедеврально! Да, полнометражка! Я уже впечатлён! Сперва Gundam выйдет, потом и вы выпустите своё великолепие. С 2023 по сейчас я прям радуюсь за гиперреалистичную анимацию! Она жива! Спасибо вам огромное!
Reckon we all had a "Wait a minute..." moment, there
Awesome stuff
Syama Pedersen is back but this time with a whole team. No need to wait a year for 5 minutes of ecstasy. Astartes is one of the best cinematic storytelling masterpieces ever!
This looks great! Though I'll be sad if Syama Pedersen never did anymore 40k. His visual style is so perfect for Warhammer 40k. Can't blame him though considering how Games Workshop treats people.
I'd recognize that soundtrack anywhere.
Good to see more great works by Syama Pedersen.
That is an INCREDIBLE trailer. I don't get why they're so obstinately refusing to state what Huxley actually IS... movie? Game? Book? Even the website is vague af.
It's a teaser! Your intended reaction is to be left wanting to know more.
@@Feintgamesyeah but a teaser for what exactly
Judging by the Credits at 2:21 I’d say it’s a film
It's the person Aldous Huxley.. The guy who got right what George Orwell got wrong.
@@lincolnb2244 if you knew that, it wouldn't be a teaser
Glad to see Syama back.
After 2 years, this project is back. Hope to see more.
What a nice news!
This was giving me Astartes vibes, then I see it's a Syama Pedersen project! 2:19
YES!!! The man is back! Sorry the GW thing didn't work out but this looks incredible! More excited to see this project then any mainstream film or tv show
It's a damn shame we'll never get more from Astartes.. but this looks INCREDIBLE!! Glad to see Pedersen is back cooking!!
I could tell he was involved immediately, the aesthetic is all him lol
From the start I got big Astartes vibes. Just read it was the same creator. Thank god he is still alive ! WE WANT MORE !
This is better than a lot of the CGI nowadays.
Reused the same 3D model for the giant robot hand @1:28 as the robot priest @0:49. Not complaining, just something I noticed. Glad to see Syama Pedersen getting more work!
Trailer for a novel? And done so much batter than traitors for movies. Builds suspense and mystery instead of just being essentially the entire move in recap form
Look up the guy who directed this, Syama Pedersen, and his work on a very famous fan film based on Warhammer 40k called astartes
This definitely has some Astartes vibes to it in tone, pacing and quality of execution. Nice to see Syama Pedersen being involved in new stuff.
That ceremonial branding element was very good
Getting some strong Homeworld vibes from 1:00 to 1:20
And Syama Pedersen? No wonder it looks amazing.
this is going to be so super epic, ive been waiting for this for so long!
All good things to those who wait
I KNEW I FELT THIS ATMOSPHERE SOMEWHERE ELSE BUT I DIDN'T KNOW WHERE FROM UNTIL I CHECKED THE DESCRIPTION - Directed by Syama Pedersen of 'ASTARTES' - FUUUUUCK YEAAA!! CAPS INTENDED!!!
You are a huge inspiration bro. Keep up the good work, i'm excited to see more from you
First i thought why music reminds me of Astartes, and then i see his name. Finally legend is back. Also in no way it deminishes all hard work that whole team do. Thank you all for letting us see this masterpiece.
Edit: It's to make hype for pre-orders of the NFT series in print form.
This isn't a real trailer- for anything. Huxley is an NFT comic series and the creator is just trying to make hype so people will look into it. You can read the first issue for around $180,000 if you'd like.
Not true. It's a Art/Comic Book and you can buy it for 50-60 euros on their website. No mentions of NFT, i guess they dropped that.
Now that’s a trailer that leaves you wanting more. I like it!
In 3000+ years, we still have weapons that fire things at other things
If its working why change it.
If you think about it, there is hardly any other way in the world where there are 2 different entities that coexist and have a distance in-between them. It’s just logical that you would need a kind of weapon that would cross this distance fast, that is, something shooting.
Exactly 😆… let’s you know who’s controlling the warfare depictions. Remember, this is the same Hollywood that had Vibranium-wielding Wakandans with cloths and spears. I’m not surprised. These guys are OBSESSED with guns.
You do not understand. Those of humanity who survive the galactic wars will return to these weapons
3000 years ago we were also fighting with daggers, battons, swords and machetes, in large areas of the world this still happens. riot control, india gangs, african crime lords, tribes in amazone.
Good to see Syama wasn't completely screwed over by the GW overlords, this looks amazing
Absolutely amazing
This reminds me of Dune. Religious feel, desert planet, scifi technology, giant pits that look like sandworms, music.
“Directed by Syama Pedersen” :0
no wonder I have this Astartes similarity feel to it, he truly have his own style.
I don’t know what this is, but it feels extremely lore rich. Well done!!
Lore rich
The sound effects are awesome ! Please make a full album of those !
Damn that is good cinematography!! Would kill to see this made into a full theatrical movie
HUXLEY: The movie that has no end (nor beginning)
and no plot either
@@MrGulliver It's not a movie, it's a Nft comic
@@Marukanitel Oof.
I knew I heard that chilling background theme before! Syama Pedersen the goat
Truly the goat
We are getting to the point where I cant distinguish between live action or CG footage anymore 😂
Honestly. The cold jingle of the AI ceremony staff was eerily satisfying
Outstanding work from Syama Pedersen! Legend!
1:20 think I see at least one cinematic influence there
Exactly what I thought
The sphincter from the furry planet in the Flashgitz animation?
DVs Dune....
This is absolutely stunning. So much creativity and originality. I cannot wait to see this in its entirety.
Brown: THe Movie.
a film huh. I would definitely venture outdoors to the cinema to watch this feast for the eyes and ears
Awesome stuff!
Incredible how this little of animation achieved such an amazing effect!
Sadly this is a trailer to…nothing. It’s not really a trailers. It’s an ultra short story. It’s unfortunate they don’t have the resources to produce an actual movie.
A whole of nothing was typed for nothing at all
Maybe somebody will back it or buy it.
You should read the Video Description
The Trailer is for a sci fi book
I can see the similarities to Astartes. I think his talents are being put to better use here.
As a trailer, this is excellent.
this should be made into a series/mini series for MAX or Netflix imo
so they can load it up with mankissers nons and bossgorls?
Черт, я ждал выхода ролика от этого творца в надежде, что он отошёл от ГВшных перепетий.
И боже, как приятно увидеть знакомый почерк в новом мире.
Успеха вам!
Hell, i've been waiting for the new film from this guy, and thanks God (and authors diligence), here it is!
Your style is amazing, atmosphere is perfect. Its very interesting to see your author's world!
Will be waiting next film❤
I just got here but I am now obsessed with this. Going to buy the GN shortly.
Edit: NFTs and AI never mind rofl
Surreal.
Always fight to make your original things. We need it.
Is it what - a cartoon, a movie, a game or a book? I don't understand.
Comic book
Me neither. It's next level weird why they don't mention this here or on the actual website...
This reminded me of something we would of seen in the 90's in the hard edge/cyberpunk/futurist Anime. The Ghost in the Shells and Akiras, as well known examples. Dripping with atmosphere and a very specific world and style. This is the kind of thing I want to see done with CG movies and series. Someone else mentioned Neill Klomkamp, and it is like him at his peak with Sci-Fi.
Yeah. Based on works like Dune and Beloved Son
Hyperion, etc. A great age for sci fi
In 3000 years, the space station debris would have broken up far more than that. It would be forming a ring.
This is a masterpiece of craft work already. Can't wait for the whole thing. Gotta sub this channel now.
I kept expecting a small robot to run through yelling, “Wal-eeeeeeeee!”
As soon as I heard that music track I KNEW it was Syama! thats our guy!
Getting all the praise of something creative, without actually being anything remotely creative.
The “(Official)” in the title is hilarious. Good thing we can tell it apart from all the, oh, wait 😂😂
0:47 love the visual details that indicate to us how this branding mechanism works.
wen. fckn. movie. i already want to stream a trilogy of 3 3-part films....no one else is doing what Huxley and Ben are doing.
I certainly need more of this... it's more interessting the Star Wars, Star Trek and most other stuff that came from the big producers so far
Dune meets Gieger meets Wall-E.
The legend returns. The music made me wonder if it was Syama. this is very exciting.
Well . . . the trailer sure looked like it was made by A.I.
Nope, ai ain't making full animations yet
This looks dope. I love brand new imaginings like these. Well done.
Okay, so some guys go down a big butthole in the desert, but who are these guys? why should I care? Looks like a 1st year interactive design project. Meh.
This remake does the original justice. Is it better? No. Not by a long shot. More gory and more action oriented? Yes. I loved it for it's further continuation of the lore.
A trailer for a graphic novel? Really!?
I've seen trailers for regular novels.
I mean, it's OK to draw inspiration from others, but this looks and feels just too much like the latest Dune movies.
I couldn’t put my finger on why the vibe seemed familiar, but Astartes! Hell yeah man, I’m all in for this project!
Tjis guy’s imagination and world building are on another level!
from the dreading sound track to absolutely stunning the visuals.. just wow!
this gives me strong implied aged of strife vibes, even if the connection to warhamer isn't overt the setting of a sci-fi apocalypse with AI overlords and a timeframe of "3000 years after the apocalypse" fits right in with the 5000 year long age of strife.
the 5 man squad of soldiers with their distinctive armour profile and bright colours also has a heavy wargaming vibe.
regardless, this is phenominal work, I could watch an entire series animated to this quality, exploring the setting
This 2minute and 30secs film got me more interested and amazed than the last 10 Hollywood "blockbusters" put together....just wow
Insanely beautiful. Graphics age so much better when you have STOYLE
