It's cool to see a time travel movie with a happy ending
@@Velolight04vV how??? In the earlier future he didn't have her at this time but now he does, now even if he come back in time in the evening, the timeline will be different
@@divyanshgoel128 hey there I love time travel paradoxes and stuff so
WHAT IF
By not writing the computations down perhaps he never gets the same built some of those math computations can be complicated I'm no mathematician or anything but they can
Paradox paradox paradox
Sentinal Gaming In the earlier future, she did knock on his door at this time. The only difference is that there was no clock in the earlier time to delay him from entering his basement lab, so he didn’t hear her knock.
hum iwanted to write the same thing... are you from the future
Almost stuck in an infinite loop, then lame ending with no explanation
What's this? A time travel story that doesn't break its own rules to get around plot holes? I didn't even know that was possible!
Haha! Thank you!!
@@trevorama Thank YOU for a fantastic little story. I really enjoyed it.
Deus Ex Cosmichina
Check out Primer, that’s the only other movie I can think of that doesn’t break its own rules. But is was fun to see it done again.
It sort of doesn't make sense though, in one aspect.
The characters claim to be immune to future assassins when they go back in time; that when another Tim follows them back from the future, he opens up a new timeline that they're not in. But it has the same problem as quantum immortality. It operates under the rules that that Tim comes back into a version of the current timeline that the ‘originals’ are now immune to, but also that that Tim would enter a timeline with copies of those originals in it.
Though, this is just going off what the original killer Tim says, and maybe he was just naively misinformed.
Based on a first watching, oherwise it's a tidy series of events.
for those who don't get it
that one Tim threw the clock onto that spot to cause the original Tim to notice it and pause there just long enough to hear the knock at the door, a brilliant piece of fourth dimensional thinking
how did he know there was going to be a knock at the door?
@@johnchristina1340well he from the future so it's possible she told him that she stopped by at that time
That is GENIOUS
I don't think it was foreknowledge that caused that one Tim (TOT) to throw the clock at Murder Tim (MT). If TOT had known Holly knocked at that specific time, then he would've answered already, causing Holly and him to enable a relationship, disconnecting him from the chaotic timeloop that we saw. It was most likely caused by the "cosmic mechanism" to remove duplicates mentioned by MT at 22:31. Not only did it cause MT to trip and shoot himself, it was probably the mechanism that allowed the coincidence of the clock being placed to prevent the timeloop that allows for more duplicates.
@@johnchristina1340 pure coincidence
Now I know why my room is always messy when I get home: future “me”s battling it out and eradicating themselves in my room.
Haqeeqee Haha!! It explains so much!
Change the password of your time machine room door. So that they can't battle in your room anymore.
Satwik Ghanta Future you would know the new password.
@@trevorama I feel so dumb..😅😂
Satwik Ghanta Ha! Don’t feel dumb. Time travel really messes with your head. I almost lost my sanity several times while writing the script.
Real props on this one. The editing must have been a nightmare
JHamilton You have no idea! :) Thanks so much for the props!!
Sooo...just how many brothers u got?
Trevor Mayes ...I think the editing was really _easy_ (with all the *HELP* you had ;-) Hiding something? Really, you have a time-portal, don't you! Admit it‼️
Lion Door Ha! I wish.
I thought you found a set of triplets for the movie. Sure would have been a lot easier to film and edit.
The first time travel story that doesn't end in a repeating loop! Love it!
Jared Thanks, man! Great to hear it!
Hero: Tim
Villian:Tim
Secondary character: Tim
Pixel Tall Sure made casting easy. 😀
@@trevorama That was one of the best short film movie I've ever seen. Good story, great acting, and a beautiful woman are the perfect ingredients for a good movie.
Tim: ''Am I joke to you?''
Side Characters:Tim,Tim,Tim,Tim,Tim,Tim and Tim. And did I mention Tim?
@@trevorama just watched this what a great film to watch.
Would have been funny if you kept tim1 tim2 etc as the casts.
Ty for this.
(Spoiler alert)
I like how the scarf covers the old stain on his shirt at the start to not reveal that he’s from the future.
He wasnt supposed to wear it. Thats why when he first met himself, the other guy ask "was I really wearing that today." and "you're home early"
@@tacocat1705 0:50 " I thought I had 15 minutes..."
should have used some glue.. js
This is one of the best time travel shorts I have seen. It’s well written, wonderful cinematography, funny and takes into account paradoxes. I really really enjoyed this! Well done.
Your comments just made my day. Thank you!!
Trevor Mayes you are so welcome!!!
@@trevorama So.. how on earth did you film that?
Dominic Littlewood It took a lot of time and choreography. Luckily I had a great actor who was really good at pretending to interact with himself. We used mic stands with tennis balls on them to give him the right eye-line, then digitally replaced them with the other shots of him. Your very question is a nice compliment. Thank you!
not all paradoxes i'm afraid, after all who threw the clock that caused the original Tim to pause long enough to hear the knock at the door and thus not finish the time machine preventing the chain of events from starting in the first place
"Duplicity" part 2 ........The length of the movie was perfect. Any longer would have been tedious. The photography (special effects) spot on.. The plot? Well thought out. The actors were perfectly chosen and played their parts well. The only problem is..... i want more!
All two of the actors. XD
Still a good film.
Yeah, Elon Musk did a good acting job.
collomps he kinda does look like Elon musk. Just scrawny
watch Primer from 2004, it basically set the standard for good time travel movies.
@@disciplinarydisability9108 All four, I think. You forgot about the two assassins at 7:52
First time traveling movie which won't end with An infinite loop
This really deserves recognition for breaking the predestination paradox.
This video deserves so many more views. When I first saw it was 26 minutes, I thought, "jeesh, pretty long for a short film". 26 minutes later and I didn't even realize how fast time had gone by due to being so engaged in the short. Good work, keep it up.
Aug Great compliment. Thank you!
I thought it was only 15 minutes lol
Yup
I don't think you should time travel wearing a scarf unless your time machine is bigger on the inside.
And/or you dress in a menagerie of colors brighter than the rainbow; and/or you can truly appreciate the magnificence of fezzes and bow ties; and/or you walk around with the three center fingers of each hand inside your front pants pockets with the thumb and pinky on the outside of those said pockets.
(Yes, I overindulged in writing that comment.)
@@ADayinWhite you dress in a menagerie of colors brighter than the rainbow
Actually, right now I'm naked.
Welp, ladies and gents. The nope train had just arrived, get yer tickets!
Who? Precisely!
Doctor??
"Who the hell is that!?" Actually distracted me too! 🤦
Dorothy Lensa a nice nod to Back to the Future
This is probably the best unique time travel short that I've seen. Multiple copies of oneself existing at the same time
continuum could be possible and the ending proves that things can change without always repeating themselves. Brilliantly acted, directed and well filmed.
FINALLY!!! A wonderful short with a great sense of humor that has an ending that MAKES SENSE!!! This was spectacular!!! Thank you!
Windkisssed Music to my ears. Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!!
Well i think the girl in the last scene is from the future coz she found out what happened and travelback in time to fix everything :D
That was cool when he said wait was I wearing that today when he actually didn’t
Jordan Retard Thank you! You’re very observant. Most people don’t pick up on that.
Have you realised that one of the future Ts must have manipulated the car?
Badz Ooh, I like this theory!
This was great, I loved it, even tho only one Tim got a true happy ending ... some of them went back in time to help build Ikea furniture and got brutally shot by two assassins for their trouble. Here's to all the Tims that were harmed in the making of Original Tim's happy ending
Madenique van Wyk Hear hear! LOL
Hahaha 😏 they died, right? 😜
Time is such a fascinating "thing". I am currently watching my old self.

He cannot just stop the paradox, while it is already happening.
quarantine has me watching short films at 3 in the morning... the attention to detail is crazy!! This deserves so many more views
Andrew Olson Thank you, sir!!
24:01 A difference of one second (just by looking at the clock) can make the story take a sharp turn.
He stared at the clock lying on the floor, so he didn't immediately enter the room and enter the time machine, a few seconds later someone knocked on the door. And in the end he canceled using his time machine.
this kind of dilemma is much more manageable if the guy was gay
hey loving yourself isnt gay. its masturbation lmao.
@@cody181818 If you would fuck a clone of yourself, that is gay. Why? Your clone is a separate being with it's own consciousness. Would it be masturbation if you were born an identical twin?
@@heimskr2881 not a clone bro. Literally him, just later
@John Magnus Seems like the genre is dominated by male role models that fuck up. Why not a woman?
Doesn't that make it incest?
"It became unmanageable after 10", would have thought 3 was a crowd!

"The Perfect Liiiiiiiiife...Liiiiiiife!" When you get me smiling like that, you got a winner :-)
So happy to hear that! I’ve gotten some feedback that the falling-in-love montage missed the mark. But it’s one of my favorite parts!
Lots of neat foreshadowing, the scarf, the rug, the clock, the split second shot of the box, man, I enjoyed this a lot. I probably missed a lot, but those were the ones I noticed.
So glad to hear it! As a writer/director I like to reward observant viewers like yourself. I really appreciate the positive feedback. All the best!
Fantastic short film! The special effects used to make all the Tims interact with one another was great, I honestly don't even know how you did it. The story was interesting and didn't have any obvious plot holes like most of the short films I've seen about time travel. The actor was good too, you could really tell that each iteration of Tim had a slightly altered personality.
Kevin PowerUp Wow, what wonderful feedback! I really appreciate everything you said and picked up on!! #thisguygetsit
plot twist: Holly ends up learning about the time machine, and realizes the complexities of the whole situation, and goes back in time to have a car 'break' down
Benjamin Heninger It’s a good hypothesis. But were it not for the clock on the ground, Original Tim would have missed her knock.
How the hell does this not have millions of views? This plot line could easily be fleshed out to a full 2 hour film! Fuck that, it could be a series!! Great work man! Cheers mate!
Chris D You’re the best! Thank you, sir. Would love to see it hit a million views one day. If it does, I’ll do a feature!
I know that Tim will probably forget the complex equations needed for the time machine but if he can figure them out once he can probably do it again meaning he can still go back in time
True, but maybe... just maybe, Holly fulfills something in him that was missing, and he realizes that time well spent is better than time manipulation.
this is the best time travel short film i ve ever seen
SABaruj Great to hear it. Thank you!
Thank the universe for Holly! Lol. That was a great short!
"To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
Or to take arms against a sea of troubles"
Out of all these wackadoodle sci-fi shorts I've been watching on TH-cam, this might be my favorite just due to the happy ending and the suggestion that there are cosmic forces beyond our control that retain structure and logic.
Awesome! I appreciate the feedback, thanks. 🙏🏼
2:31 you can see the "Original Tim" with the stain. Really threw me off at first haha
Dark Phoenix Nice catch! Most don’t notice it first time through. A nice little clue for the trenchant ones. It would be cheating if I had swapped out the shirt. Cheers!
Totally excellent in all regards: story line, acting, cinematography, dialogue, all the aspects of a well done film.
Thank you, Professor! I really appreciate your taking the time to leave such stellar feedback. 🙏🏼
@@trevorama DUST is a real mixed bag for sci-fi shorts. I see excellent work, like yours, and then things that look like a high school film class exercise. Thanks for the reply. I wish I had gotten involved in filmmaking before I hit 70, but it's wunderbahr to see work like yours! Now, I get to watch your other content! Support the space whales! They need love too...
Oops, used the wrong account. I really am Professor Cheddarbottom, whose role in life is to support space whales and watch too much DUST...
@@pianofoolish Ha! No worries. Yeah, agree with your assessment of DUST. Sure glad they exist though. And any friend of space whales is a friend of mine. Thanks again!
When the last copy disintegrated, I saw that coming.
As one of the copies said "if time is trying to kill the anomalies you better watch your back"
Excellent! Love it when viewers pay attention like that. Thanks for the comment!
All it too was a clock on the floor to change the outcome. Sometimes it's the little thing in life that makes us wonder or think for just a minute or two. Those little things can make life better or worse. Great movie.
Malicxy You’re so right about that. Great observation and takeaway. Thanks for watching!
This was very entertaining. And the editing... I cannot imagine how you were able to pull this off so perfectly. Congrats!
Thank you so much for your kind words. Yes, editing was heinous but fortunately worth the effort as people seem to really be embracing the film. Much appreciated!
Wow, the amount of thought put out into the plot is insane! Sick use of time travel!
Alan C. I really appreciate your recognizing that fact. Thanks so much!
I love that the main part of the time machine is made from 3 hard drive magnets.
Trevor Brent Very observant! The Butterfly Cortex is indeed composed of three hard drive magnets... with a pinch of antimatter and neutrinos. 😊
Einstein said that travelling BACK in time is NOT and NEVER will be possible, but forward is a ‘possibility’
omg this is brilliant!!!! the ending ist clever af! Wow i am very mindblown actually
This is the most amazing time travel short film i've seen, and i've seen a lot. I just like the topic and this film is produced very well, has a great story, a happy ending and most importantly fcked my mind. Great job!
Love the great feedback, Frab! Thanks so much!!
the foreshadowing with all of them tripping on the rug, and especiallyy Black Shirt Guy almost shooting himself in the foot was amazing
"I've got time" - that was a great short film.
Thank you!
Well done!!!!love the idea!!!well executed and definitely good ending!!!
Keep up the good work!!!
I haven't had that problem with my time machine.
They sometimes look past, not at themselves. But I like the way they play. They play so good that I keep referring to one single him as them.
I love how ever thing played out to the clock on the floor and all the tims doing there part to fix the timeline. I really enjoyed the ending cuz I thought another to was going to show up but nun did. This was really AWESOME
WAINSTER THE WINNER So happy you enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to leave such a great comment.
Aw this one was really good, nice happy ending :)
Pretty coool, i liked it a lot. Time travel is my favorite genre
If I could time travel I would have so many friends.
At the end, I was waiting for Holly to be the mastermind Time Traveler.
I like it!
I need a sequel. The 2nd could be about the multiverse.
Giovanni Giovanni. I like it!
Wonderful Short Film.... This deserves more likes than this....!!!!
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE
Well Shot! Trevor and Team. I am the oldest of Eight siblings. WE! are just like this! I am 69 now. Nothing has changed. Each of us is 'smarter than the others'. Six boys. Two girls. They never give up attacking me with their 'knowledge'. None of us will ever concede defeat. And I will never stop from trying to win. My only problem is that I have to face SEVEN OF ME! And that! Is not Fun!
Aw, that makes me so happy to hear! Thank you for your comment!
I think this is brilliant. You deserve way more views. Promote it!
Probably the best movie for time travel.Keep it up.👌👌
Time Travel fan here. This is one of the best ever I've seen
Thank you for taking the time to let me know! After all this time, comments like yours still mean a lot to me. 🙏🏼
All he needed was a few seconds before he went to travel in time to change it for the better. The clock in the floor was just enough. Cool
A lot of people don’t catch that. Glad you enjoyed it!
That's what Im talking about. Well done.
That was pretty cool. Making each cut so it actually looks like you are interacting with yourself must of taken a lot of *time* to get the synchronization right.
For a moment I thought you were just going to get her to Jump back a few times so each has a copy to be happy with.
But instead TIM finds he's enter world divergence number 1.048596 Steins Gate.
Vegarot Fusion Synchronization was key. We also used “Tennis Ball Tim” (a stand with a tennis ball on top) to ensure the right eye-line.
Love your idea of getting a couple copies of Holly. Too bad Tim didn’t think of that. But then again, Holly may not have been too keen on the idea. Steins Gate for the win! Thanks for your feedback!
After binge watching similar shorts, THANK YOU FOR A HAPPY ENDING. Oh, 4am time for sleep
NeoVelocity You’re very welcome! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. Sleep well!
That Carpet sure is the real Hero.
Andi Satria Ha, you’re right! I should have given it top billing. :)
I knew that rug was up to something
Robert livingstone Haha! Good eye.
This is REALLY well-made
WhateverItTakesMotivation Muchas gracias! Not sure why I’m speaking Spanish.
This is actually really well put together and written. Usually, after watching a time travel film you can work out plot holes or things that should've happened but didn't given the multiple timelines but this one covers all the bases. Very well done.
Cuzzo I really appreciate the feedback. I’m the same way with time travel films, so I spent a lot of time (no pun intended) making sure everything worked. Thanks for watching!
Trevor Mayes my pleasure!
Im glad the original got to continue on his timeline.
Me too!
Great job!
Liam Fountain Thank you, sir! Much appreciated. 🙏🏼
this is probably the only time travel short i enjoy , and yes i call it a film because it should be one
edit: i traveled back in time to correct it from film to short
edit 2: i traveled back in time to correct my typo from my past . or the future? i do not know
edit 3: i found out that technically it was in the now i corrected my self
edit 4: how do i close this cycle? i am paranoid i am gonna disappear somehow , the slide always has an end , no matter how long
edit 5: this is the end , my time has co#
edit6: when did i type all of these? and who am i subscribed to with notifications , anyways thank you very much for the heart
Finally! A short film that is a complete story. Wonderful. Thank you 🙏
Tania PinkSky Thank YOU for taking the time to watch my film and leave such a nice comment.
This is one of my favorite short time travel movie. Thank you so much for this. I hope you will get better acknowledgement for your hard work. 💚
Aw, so glad to hear it! Thank you so much!
you can *_time travel_* but you have IKEA furniture? we need to talk...
Great story, I really like it. Well done! 10 out of 10 ;-)
Chris Broda Wonderful feedback! Thank you!!
This was so cool. Time did let happen every posiblity to finaly eleminate the very instant when they cancel out the anomalies
Thanks so much for the feedback! Glad you enjoyed it and understood what I was going for.
It's amazing how well this is made and how it played out, it is honestly better than things made by big companies
So kind of you to say. Thank you!
Wow Great great great short film, I think the best I have seen.
How does this one only Have 4K views??!!
I wish I could make something even 1/10 as good.
I might try to make another short film, only this time much less amateur, and using more than just my iPhone 5 and 2 apps lol.
I agree with you, but to specifically address your question here: "How does this one only Have 4K views??!!" (currently 1.4K)
I'm thinking it's due to the amount and qualities of other short films on at least this platform, on channels such as "DUST".
Again, I do very much agree with you and others who have experienced similar experiences in regard to this short film.
Thank you very much to everyone involved with it and everyone who has expressed a level of appreciation for "TRIPLE TIMe".
hold on, did Holy come from the future to prevent him to invent time travel?
Cris O No she would have been there in the original timeline as well. But in the original timeline there was no clock on the floor to delay him from going into his basement lab, so he wouldn’t have heard her knock.
I love how much effort he made to make this short. Well done man!!
Manab Das Thank you for recognizing that. I really appreciate it! Took me about a year to do all the VFX.
the editing was phenomenal. the film offers up the idea that you can coexist with other versions of yourself.
That moment when Tim gotta kill Tim and Tim because Tim and Tim smashed on Tim's girl
this was absolutely phenomenal.recently Ive lost so much faith in Hollywood because of garbage woke films & desperate reboots.
came across a channel called Dust which equally creates beautifully made short films.that channel recommended yours & being the biggest time travel nerd ever- this was exceptional.
Brilliant piece of work!
V M I really really appreciate your feedback. It’s especially meaningful when it comes from a fellow time travel nerd. Thanks so much!
Dust sometimes represent shitty films too. And though the quality of how it's filmed is very well, the scenario sometimes really sucks. Actually, I never saw the film which would show me the future that I would like to live in.
This is the tragedy of all western film production
To be clear, Dust isn't creating those films. It's just distributing them on its channel. It's not a production studio. Those films are all independently made.
Him Throwing That Clock saved his life
More people need to see this!!! So good!!
no no Here’s hoping! Thanks so much!! If I get a million views, I’ll write a feature film version.
Really good.. The best time travel short film I have seen.
Bryant Harrell Such high praise! I really appreciate it!!
"That was a lousy shot, I could have done better." I see What you did there lol. it was a complicated shot, an ambitious move with testicular heft.
plus, I know you were the one shooting everything the whole time lol, jokes.
Silus Reed Haha. Thanks! That’s one of my favorite lines. Cheers, bud!
This is one of the best shorts I've ever seen. And definitely nailed the funny. Congratulations!
Thank you for the amazing feedback. So glad you enjoyed it!
Daniel Kouncz is a fantastic actor.
SO blessed to B God's body. I agree! Daniel Kountz is amazing! It was a privilege to work with him.
Sarah Hester = modern day Sam Fox. She hot.
Foiled by vagina, yet again 😳
Side note: that ending song is bad ass. Love it
Now I'm thinking of the Tim traveller.
Your films are actually very good...thank you for them.
80's RULE!!!!!!!! Thank you so much! You’re very welcome. I’m thrilled that people are responding favorably to them. It inspires me to keep improving and keep making films that tell unique stories.
And it turns out, all he needed was a beautiful girl to fix things!!! 🤩
They could have a dozen of mollies... 🧕👰🤰👸👩🚀👩✈️👩🎨👩🎤👩🔬
That was exciting and unexpected and absolutely adorable in the end. Loved it. Thank you!
GroovyGirl1990 Wonderful to hear it! You’re very welcome. Thank you for your lovely comments!
Okay, here's how I interpretted it:
The black-jacket Tim said that the rest of Tims became more broken and broken in his timeline..
I believe that it was directly related to the *number of Time Travels* ..
The wine Tim traveled once, so he's fine.. Just a bit hungry..
The black-jacket Time traveled once too.. but he just barely escaped a Tim-massacre, that's why he's a bit crazy..
Then the scarf Tim traveled twice.. he was originally the black-jacket Tim who traveled back again..
so he's the craziest of them three.. and the only reason he wore the scarf was to hide the wine-stains.
He must've gotten the stained t-shirt from wine Tim when they spent the last timeline together.. that's why it already has the stains..
*I found it clever how the writer used a simple clock to stop the loop.. great job!!*
Maria Dinah A. Dimacali A very well thought out analysis! You got it! The only tweak is that the black jacket Tim would have traveled twice and the scarf Tim three times. Cheers!
