I've noticed that several of these DUST shorts have a similar theme: One can achieve wealth and/or success, but its a hollow gain if you leave your family or friends behind.
This short film has such a captivating story! The pacing is perfect, especially how the tension builds. We’ve featured stories with this level of storytelling, and it’s always exciting to see new ones like yours
Too many questions. What was that ending about, for instance? What made him/it turn around? Why did the small one pull a chunk of crystal from the middle of a large stalactite when there were plenty of other loose pieces? This seems more like a proof of concept than a finished work.
He turned around because it thought that the it could hear the little one. Unfortunately, because Dust keeps shrinking the credits to flog their merch and the voiceover, you may have missed the bit where the lone robot returns to the rockfall.
I guess it might show the concept of greed. And when running, when the little one fell behind, he didn't turn around for him, but rather run and save his precious green crystal. At the end, though it sounded like the little one made it, but I don't see how, since when the man-robot made it in the room, it seemed like it had been blocked off by the falling rocks just as he made it through.
Ive noticed recently these DUST movies are looking amazing but feels like the storys and any voice acting is lacking. Almost as if using AI to fast track delivery
Amazing! Very well done. I do wish the little bot had just taken some of the many rods of the material that were ON THE GROUND. Instead of triggering an avalanche by breaking the tower. But...still a great story & incredible visuals! Thank you!
This would fit in with the Netflix series Love Death and Robots. And why do hallway lights in the future always go on in sequence with that same noise of a circuit breaker cutting in? Even our current electrical tech is more advanced than that. Noiseless switches and instant lights.
Haven't watched yet but representation of a data collector,a data delivery and a data placement. Interpretation from cover photo... Not everything glows is a chunk of rock. But data...that makes everything go around in the known existence. It's earning it's keep.buying it's way back into a whole of what it gets to choose to become.😏😎
@@SchoolforHackers Which was deliberate, and I think a good move on the filmmakers' part. What's the old vaudeville saying, 'Leave 'em wanting more'? With an ending like this, we are more likely to think about it for a while, and realize more as we do. I think it was very well done.
These short films try to squeeze too much meaning into too short a story. You can’t have the audience appreciate what’s unique about the events in your short story if there is no context to show what an ordinary day in the universe you’ve created looks like. Too many questions at the end. Was this their first visit to the energy cave? Does the biped have to routinely give new life to the flying robot? Or was this his first attempt? Did the flying one have no idea what would happen? Did the broken limb of another bot mean that this has all happened before? We’re they sent there or was it their idea to go? I know the typical thing to say to your audience is “what do you think?” But I get the feeling the filmmaker didn’t have anything substantial in mind. Just a cool scenario they could animate and provoke discussion in film class or something.
Everything seems awesome. Except that dumbed down way how robots communicate like humans would. Understandable. I expected they would talk by code and no language. Also. No need to for visual cues and body language like we humans do. Machines would probably only need visual data with great zoom, focus - Whatever for better data process. They would send info to other bots instantly from human perspective.
would have been more fun if they had pretended to work hard for a week and went back to the surface with a few small stones . AI should be smart enough to milk a job
The DUST outhro damages too much!!! In this video, the main robot turn around and begin to remove rubble...but that is only seen after the ending text, which gets obscured by DUST's ending message!!!!! I dont need to hear "-Subscribe to Dust for new Sci-fi every week!" after every video....... Especially when it ruins the video!

Too slow for children too childish for adults, unnecessary violence ('facial' slap), really sorry for not being positive, it's just my opinion, please don't be offended as I'm nobody anyway.
No need to apologize for not understanding that the creators were showing that the relationship between the three robots was like the relationship between siblings and at the same time reminiscent of the relationship between the Three Stooges. The big one sacrificed himself to save his friends and at the very end the skinny one was digging the little one out, all showing that they were more than work mates.
You are entitled to your opinion if people disagree they should formulate an argument. I liked the visual effects. the beeping dialogue was crap and the robot trying to speak English I thought that was unnecessary. I also have no idea why they turned to being violent. Robots getting greedy for fuel???
@@michaelcarney6280 - What did you guys think you were watching? Are you guys seriously saying it just wasn't highbrow enough for you? Sure you can have your opinion, but that doesn't mean it's worth anything.

The moment the little robot broke that piece of crystal I knew something bad was gonna happen. Poor robo. But I hope his friends made it. 😢
it gives off nostalgic cartoonish vibes despite the modern aesthetics
Excellent work! Good short, good length, good characters.
Told a complete story in a limited number of frames. Well done, lads. Please keep creating!
I enjoyed this short film and would like to see more of these shorts.
Some truly classy animation. Attention to detail in movement. Even the simplest. Impressive.
This is my most favorite short film from you guys, love the animation!

Amo este canal siempre tienen una buena historia que contar ❤
"ROCK! :D"
I don't think that's a rock,I think that's URANIUM!
Poor robot.....Lost his brothers in Arms.....we know the feeling.
thank you Dust.
Love these story's, reminds me of the old Omni magazine years ago. i had a subscription forever.
Very nicely done. But so sad. 😢

So,the big guy bit the dust?
@@toneenorman2135 who knows, this was too short to explain.

He stood 6 foot 6 and weighed 245. Big John.
Broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip.
Great short story.
❤❤❤MORE PLEASE👍😊
Certified Gold!!!!!
good story .. thanks
Beautiful and stylish!
Nice! Looking forward to another WALL E!
Been playing Subnautica Below Zero again... and totally not making grabby-hands at all those shinies on the screen here. Okay, maybe a little.
I thought this was brilliant. Well done everyone involved. 👏👏👏👏
We need more episodes of this
Nice!!
Loved this
Top notch work! 👍
Nice to see you again.........
😅😅😅well information good show you 😅
Realy good work! Robots are my favourite source of inspiration for Scratchbuilding!👍👍🏆
Yeah, Scratchwork is the best! All hail scratchwork!

Staggeringly good.
One the best pages since I'm begging..................
nice animation
ENERGÓN!!
Nice start and it goes down from there to the usual out house wish you could flush it down afterward...
Wonderful graphics
Great story. Loved it from beginning to end
Thanks.

Some industrial lights do make that noise when switching on.
so, was the one giant crystal the only thing keeping the whole place from collapsing?

Cool! Lemme insufflate a little of that rock!
Haven't watched yet but representation of a data collector,a data delivery and a data placement.

Not everything glows is a chunk of rock.
But data...that makes everything go around in the known existence.
It's earning it's keep.buying it's way back into a whole of what it gets to choose to become.😏😎
👏🏻
❤👍
The piece removed seemed to be heart shaped, uniform and different from the other crystals.
Very anticlimactic ending with no point to it. He goes and gets a glowing chunk of rock and comes back. The end.
The glowing rocks are what makes them tick.
Not exactly. He heard another voice and turned and responded. The little flier?
you must be new here
@@craigsmith1443 Yes: something was definitely happening, and we didn’t get to see it!

I think it was very well done.
in other words... dont be greedy.... think with tactical reasons..... this shows us as human race perfectly
1st thought it was about tourette syndrome....but this was fun too
Great job! Very enjoyable. Sad ending though.
At first I read "what makes them thick". I was so confused...
Also, I love the character design, but the story is very simple
What makes geiger counters tick?
Do yourself a favor and play it at 1.5 to 2.0x speed.

F to doggo
What was the point?
I think thay want that green stuff to keep them alive
why is a point needed. imagination is cool. unlike most films where u don't have to think. this one engages the mind as to why
Yeah what's the point the only problem is that the big guy died
The point is, don't revive an idiot 😁
@@arditama8219 no it's that big guy is dead and why are you spreading hate on Christmas
feels sounds and looks like the crazy frog videos

These are as much robots as Garfield is a cat.
This type of story with robots that require some crystalline power source is a little over used.
They killed kenny
😢

for once not a distopic film. Ok, Sad ending but no war, not "end of the human world with humans fighting to survive". Even no real violence. Thanks
Very knock-off story line. Flat and boring.
The animation is quite nice, though.

Huh? Not much meat on the bone here.
A little shallow story
AI is just as susceptible to greed as humanity?
