Synopsis: Science has failed, and an operation to harness energy from the sun has resulted in disaster. With the light from the sun now gone, humanity lives deep underground near the planet's core, attempting to research and reverse the damage before the world freezes completely. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
The hoarding of old electronic gear has paid off! Great job!
As some people have already pointed out, the writing is rather weak, especially in the science department, but the visuals and general design still make the movie quite nice, especially for something done without a colossal production cost. Nice job on the set, Joel!
Weak?
It's pathetic.
Ten year old's have a more advanced understanding of physics.
@@billyandrew Say the person who hasn’t created anything as good as this
@@billyandrew make it better.... i dare u
@@TravelersRuneAlt seeing as it's been a whole year without any thing from him it was just an empty cerebral cortex as well as a empty hippocampus as well that made that text
@@TummaDemoni yea definitely no meat in there
If I’m being honest, the cinematography, music, and of course set design were great, and the overall concept is neat, but the writing felt kinda generic, with a bunch of overused sci-fi phrases and cliches sprinkled throughout, making it hard to connect with any of the characters.
Still better than the last jedi
@@RobertMyth 😂😂
hack into the mainframe!
I kind of liked the characters, the computer voice was spot on, maybe a lil too much poetry heh but it was good I liked it it reminded me of the best parts of a few sci fi movies. it could of been a lil darker and spookier and gotten away with it.
@@shawnio There is ONE poem.
I'm sorry but who would call a project "project Icarus". That's like calling a ship titanic...
It's name could have been changed after failure
It's called "Infinitus."
Yea, let it sink in
@@MrGandallo icarus is the project described at the begining in the text that sets the plot that you most probably skipped through.
"The glue gun guy made a sci-fi movie?"
*Watches*
"The sci-fi movie guy also makes glue gun videos. I get it now."
I’d give it a 7/10. The cinematography and sound along with the prop and set design is great, but the writing is subpar at best. The actress did a pretty good job, but as with the writing, it’s subpar. There’s a lot of overused cliches and ideas thrown together, but overall it’s not bad.
Oh neato! Awesome. Appreciate the uploads. Some really cool stuff on this channel
Thanks Luis!
THIS is the kind of sci-fi i want to see in cinema. Everything feels so much more tangible as compared to the CGI crap that comes out of Hollywood these days.
Miniatures/scale mosels, forced perspective, screen projection, what else?
lmao
By tangible you mean you can tell it was a built set and not an actual bunker
This was so well executed. The cinematography was great, Especially in the wide exterior shots
That was amazing! Nice work! I was following the videos about the making of this. It’s so cool to see it finished!
The shots of outer space were so beautiful! Well done.
This is really good! I thought of a little poem about it:
While you stay in the dark,
Staying in the past mistakes,
I live in the light,
Staying avoid of the night,
We are different,
But the same,
I wonder how we come again
2:34 There was a chance to add some 'unexpected' thrill after watching the footsteps in the snow with the flashlight. Strange noise and after this focus on an enemy or dead people with the flashlight. Scary moment and runnng back in panic to the station. After this knocking on the door or strange sounds when back inside while using the 'phone', to 'alarm' the fear and the need to escape, explains the need to escape. When she tells the operator she is the only one that survived, as viewer you can imagine what is going on. Without something like this there is no connection with the outside part and the need to escape is just a description of an event.
You put a lot of effort in the looks however when the story is not that strong, it just a video with nice shots. First pay attention to the story, instead of focus on the looks. A story is why books sell so well because it is a good story.
I came looking for a shotty robot and found gold
I am always in awe to the quality of the production, acting, directing etc. of these films. Wow
Wow, the preview a couple months ago was promising already, but you surprised me once again.
This set looks just amazing!
Keep on Rockin', love what you're doing!
It's just really good to see people who are passionate about film and its many methods and techniques, come up with great shots using creative lighting and camera placement. Regardless of the script issues...it's obviously a product of a well appreciative lover of mood and atmosphere. Good job.
Ok this is one of the coolest things ever
"Hack Into The Main Frame." I was on board until I heard that. At least the set looks cool, kinda rustic.
Nice work to all involved! I did laugh when I saw the guy operating the fog machine in that one shot, but other than that, very nicely done!
timestamp?
@@gammatheprotobean1541 You can see him behind the left door panel at 1:56. He's wearing a white-and-black-checked flannel shirt. The shot cuts to her face, then back to the door and he's gone.
Really REALLLLY underrated. This. Needs more veiws so they can do more projects. And possibly get a bigger budget and make this a tv show and put it on Netflix or something
IT'S FINALLY OUT
Two things are missing. Connection with the character. And a story. The rest is good.
Oh wow, it came out great!
Very great on a budget. I see the Ridley Scott, and Kubrick influences that cannot be a bad thing.
How do your videos have only 46k views?!?!!? THIS IS AWESOME
I've never really cared for short films but this is awesome
Love the set the hard work paid off
Make this a feature film, looks brilliant. Fantastic job.
That was a nice door!
Awesome work, everybody involved gave their best and it shows❤️
Isaac Arthur would like to have a word with you...
my thoughts exactly
Lot of talent in this project... kept me interested. I liked it. Encore... do some more.
Plans in the works to mine our moon. To start. Next Mars? I think it would be a long way off to a time we destroyed the solar system. But then the advances of humanity just over the last few hundred years may prove me wrong if we continue the pace. Very well done. Sets off the imagination.
I just found this. Thought it was great !Keep up the great work
the ship sequences have a star trek vibe and I absolutly love it!!!!
Wow that was really good
Would a culture with technologies sufficient to "harvest suns" be fiddling with dials and switches or plans on paper?
Your sets were amazing dude I loved em
DUDE THIS IS SO COOL
Aaaah found it. Thanks ! I also subscribed. Great channel. Love it
wow.. I mean, *wow* - the indoor location alone is pretty good..but your film has some truly remarkable elements to it!!
Overall, I'm really impressed! The budget was obviously an issue, but the whole team *really* did well to work around it.
The digital and live sets are nothing short of amazing..the props are *fantastic* , as are the costumes..the funnel representation of the wormhole is visually stunning and spot on, and the other related effects are breath-taking..the dialogue weaves a lovely and fantastic narrative, with the editing really giving a beautiful flow and a gentle pace that fully allowed me to immerse myself - like settling the soul into a nice warm bath.
And the cinematography/photography..? It was a bit compensatory (given the acting ability of the lead), but was often like reading a love letter from the film' creators, to the audience - I almost felt like a voyeur.
As for the directing - it really got the most out of the actors, esp the lead. I bet some of it took a few takes! The monologues they gave really allowed them to play to their strengths - some nifty use of resources there.
On top of all this, the production values were really high.
I only have one gripe, if I may, and that's to do with the lack of advisors for the computer terminology, and for some of the science - ie, reducing the power of the sun to that extent (or collapsing it) would have caused an explosion that would have destroyed all the inner planets...unless it was done over many hundreds of thousands of years.
Whether the innacuracies were due to deficiencies in the original story, or were because of the screenwriting..? I don't know..but it should have been spotted at some stage in production.
Tbh, with some more input, the writing could have been much better.
Thanks for making this film..it was a pleasure to watch.
Good job. I like the acting, music, and good try on the special effects. Amazing what can be done with little money and a good imagination. Kudos
Needs &
and deserves way more views
Wow this was so good!!
This is severly under rated
Looks like a good fit for the Dust channel.
Cool, and weird, but still cool
great sets and production design - really nice looking film!
Great to wake up to this in your notifications
All those electronics paid off!
This is great! Just watched your set building video.
Woah nice, very early. This looks like a high production movie
DUDE THATS TITAN A.E.!!!!
Fuck yeah it was
best one yet
This is better then most movies with 10x the budget. Makes me wish it was more then just a short film though.
Very well done!
Rly nice short film and nice job again Joel =) one thing I didn't quite like was the overactin' of the female character... All those close shots missed somethin' there was no depth in her performance. Just my opinion. Nice editing, nice script, nice set-up and overall experience. 👍
this is so underrated
The visuals are nice but they're nothing without good acting and a good story
Wow
this story line sounds awfully familiar...
sayy?
Sunshine (2007) perhaps?
warp field was kinda cool man, I liked that
I'm just sad why this only got 51k views
you deserve more love dude
This shit is pog as fuck and like seriously that short wave radio is pog as well
great effort guys. I know it's cliched to death but I think I would still be tempted to put the computer voice in for "opening doors" etc.
its sad so much effort went for only 64k views in 4yrs
and i cant unsee the moments she tries to not smile 😆
“Hello Dave” ...“I’m Sorry Dave, I’m afraid I cant do that” “This mission is too important for me to allow you to jeopardize it”
Great film!
Turned out great mate
"It started with our own sun" LMAO good job tho
would love a sequel showing the rebirth of life or somthing
Good movie
Very nice!
great flick, keep it up and thanks !
that was awesome bro
Not going to lie, I initially only subbed for the "Michael Reeves beef/drama" and did a huge subscriber purge about 3 days ago. TH-cam hadn't been showing me your videos because of the bell and i changed that during the Purge. This video was unexpected but greatly welcomed!
Was it beef? Seemed like two dudes poking fun at each other ,didn't seem or feel like drama of any sort,just makers being makers
Brilliant
In the 31st century, intergalactic fleet no longer use warp drive. Trans dimensional slipstream is used which is 10% faster and more stable
john? john dead, no biggie
9:14 I have back tap for my phones flashlight and somehow I turned it on accidentally, I thought the video did it 🤯
It started out well, captures your attention, but the script was not up to par for a short story. To yesterday and not enough tomorrow
Good video m8
Thanks for sharing.
The fact that she started talking before end of transmission was sooooooooooo annoying.
With that said I give it a 8/10
20/10 for the effort and hardwork, acting, and scenery.
It's only the beginning. Can't wait to see what years of experience will look like.
CB radio with graphic eq
TS-505 This freaking multimeter uses tubes. Never thought I'd see one these again.
O'scope - looks like old government issue and don't recognize the model.
It's an HP, I'd have to dig it out of storage to get the number, but I believe it's from the 70's
@@JoelCreates Thanks. I worked in the military Precision Test Equipment repair and calibration center for a couple of years in the late 70's and worked with this equipment. Thanks for the memories.
This was awesome! What camera did you use? I have always wanted to make films but I can't decide what camera to use. Do you have any recommendations for a beginner filmmaker? Thanks for any help you can give me and keep up the awesome work!!!
It was an Arri, forgot which model. We had the help of a pro commercial videographer named Andrew Dryer. Got a lot of knowledge from him. I suggest writing your script and asking around your community for help. Never know who will give you a chance if you are brave enough and passionate enough! Once you get over that hump, the only other trick to learn is getting paid to do something so fun.
Great short film.Would have loved some gruesome horror elements though.
Cool film. A good reminder that exposition is not story.
Space suit looked a little weird but otherwise really good
Nice.
I wish this was posted somewhere else than youtube, the compression is horrible in a dark movie like this
Yeeees
whats the ending music?
That was a piece made for the film by Connor. You can find his music here: soundcloud.com/conner-baumgardner
just got here from the plants breathing video
Seriously yt film makers put to get her way better movies than Hollywood does now. I’d rather pay to see yt film makers than Hollywood film makers
Oh! Then, whatever the crowdfunding, you succeeded in doing the movie anyway. Nice job. To the whole crew, nice job. Okay, the bluescreen of the spaceship is not perfect, but you tried techniques like the one were used by Douglas Trumbull and it works. The Gloomy tone is a good match. The story is short but you nailed the message. I just regret that TH-cam is a big pile of shit for compressing the video quality. You're gonna laugh, because my alien fanfilm project occures on a planet covered with snow (sorry for my english)
Glad you liked it, it was a great example of people coming together to create something special, even though there was little funding. I do like snow, I live where we get lots of it, plus a Xenomorph's black body will contrast quite well against the white!
@@JoelCreates Yes. Exactly ^^. And the shape of the alien in the blizzard will be fun to see.
Nice set. Why throw away old electronics when you can get a prop for free?
And a Star was born is I’m not wrong
Merci
