Truly outstanding and succeeds where many other shorts have failed; leaving me wanting more because in the short period of time that the video ran, I became invested in the characters.
Fantastic! Do you have a web site or some way to follow you in this endeavor? I watched it a second time and have one suggestion...These are survivors and would, if they had them, know how to handle firearms. The gun handling was the only part of the film that I thought needed work; number of shots fired before the firearm is empty and needs to reload as well as how the actors handled them. I'm a firearms instructor so it's something that I tend to notice. Beyond that, I can't wait for more!
Your firearms insight is invaluable, especially since I love using guns in my films. Hopefully my future projects are better up to snuff in that department! As far as a website, I'm working on it! Thanks for your enthusiasm, I didn't expect the reception this film has received so far so I'm a little behind!
Enjoyed from beginning to the end. Acting, concept and scenery.... Superb. When's next chapter? Thank you again looking forward to seeing some more of your work
I'm glad you liked it, and thanks for the sub! It has been my wish for several years now to make a full length film of this story. At the moment I'm attempting to at least write a novel series, but I haven't forgotten the original intent of this short.
Nicely written, great actors ( I especially thought the lead "short" woman slave did an amazing job) and I appreciated all the little things like the dirt make up, torn clothes, homemade raft and barefeet...etc., that a lot of apocalypse videos are missing. The only very minor and small critique... If The Wanderer just won a fight to save himself from being taken as a slave he really should've taken the pistol, even if he is a "fair trader" he could've even given them the shovel, the orange and whatever it the other totally unidentifiable thing was as they left limping away. But that's minor and just the way one viewer sees it. Also I noticed that your credits are too small of a print for people like myself or watching on a large screen smartphone. Although I did find out the lead woman was named Anna, she was great. I'm looking forward to her in the sequel. Thank you for making it and sharing with us.
I appreciate your comment! Yes, sometimes things shot don't turn out how you thought they would - every film is a lesson in that regard. The next project is always better!
Just because it's post apocalyptic means everyone is filthy and grubby looking, no one washes ever, even when they are camping by a river? This is getting tired.
@@astroflight6571 It is a motif in the films I've seen, except maybe "Waterworld." Is "Escape from L.A." post apocalyptic? Did you see the short Don Johnson film "A boy and his dog?"
iharrup, This is one damn good short film. I look forward to seeing a feature film of it. I was intrigued from the beginning. Very well written and well executed. The Wanderer reminded me of Liam Neeson. He was a cool character. Excellent job on the dingy and torn costumes and dirty makeup. It makes me realize that that is an area I'm going to have to work on in our films. Excellent film, sir. Thanks for sharing.
Once again very well filmed and acted. This one benefits from a good musical soundtrack and another redemptive ending - excellent. Keep up the good work you are obviously naturally talented as a film maker.
I also thought the two main characters were well chosen, and performance was good. The script needs some work, and concept was intriguing and I also would enjoy seeing more of this. Good job.
Cute story. I keep thinking that the apocalyptic shorts on you tube portray scenarios that are unlikely to occur in real life, but are entertaining in their own right.
The acting was a little off at some points, but the overall colour scheme of the short was great. The two main actors were good, and the quality of the film was good. The choices of shots were very nice, mighty impressed, and made up for some of the acting. Good short, to bad it was a teaser, would like to know the rest.
If you can find any anorexic actors riddled with scurvy, rickets, or other maladies associated with malnutrition who can still stand on their feet, let me know.
Good acting, directing, costumes, plot etc. What's not to like. Well done. The actress reminds me of a young Summer Glau. You hit the jackpot with her. The lead actor was no slouch either. The grenade thing was a mistake. If I were one of the bad guys I would have just shot at least the guy when they were out of blast range. A better idea would have been to take the leader on the raft and make him swim back - or something like that. Hope you are proceeding with the feature. If it is as good this short, it will be well worth watching. It might also be suitable for a TV series. Anyway, all the best and good luck. - Dave
I look forward to seeing the full feature! This is a very powerful short film. The narrative seems convincing despite some of the few issues with the logic that some of you mentioned alrey (e.g. the dubious scene about them holding the grenades and managing to cross the river, while the marauders hold their fire). Overall quite convincing, it has that close-up raw poignant element reminiscent of The Road, and the acting and the chemistry among the actors is very gripping and synergistic. The details are well thought out convincing (rags, filth, unkempt, malnourished looking scrawny characters.) The screenplay and the writing as well! I appreciate the fact that you leave plenty up to the interpretation of the viewer, there are no facile references and easy giveaways from the dialogue to indicate what precipitated this Collapse (and in such a Hobbesian nightmarish world, who's going to remember or even care for that matter anyway?) Might I suggest in your full feature film to include and incorporate elements of ecological ruin? What was a little bit incongruous was that the landscape scenes included well- cared for fields and a rather flourishing forest, although I realize once industrial civilization falls apart, and the human population deansity plummets dramatically, whatever is left of ecosystems can gain some measure of resilience and partial recovery.
That was fun! Thanks! I especially liked the two main characters and the vibe you set up between them. The little details were good too as someone else pointed out. The plotting needs significant work, because the fight with the slavers made no sense, and leaving the girl with the thugs to be gang raped is not going to produce the smiling young lady sitting on the grass by her former lock and chain at the end. It might be better if they don't hook up romantically; a little URST can go a long way in driving a plot. Like most movies, you need three acts, like maybe: (1) forming the partnership, (2) the preparations and journey, and (3) completing the mission. The easiest way to create that same vibe would be for him to simply buy her at a slave market and hand her the key right away - no strings attached. Then he needs to come up with a good reason for her to go with him (if there were genuinely no strings attached). Maybe they have to find and liberate her kid sister. Maybe he has skills she wants/needs to take care of herself (no one seems safe alone in that setting). You could also have fun with him interviewing different "candidates" at the market. Presumably he needs more than just a short woman with a level head. If he needs her skills, even if he has to teach them to her, it's a real partnership. They could even pull a heist for some traveling money on their way out of town. Maybe there are some mini-quests or problems to solve along the way. Also, the idea of a fortress with little holes into the basement really doesn't leave him much to do in Act 3 - unless the fortress is really a mini-quest/problem along the way to the real main destination. Another thing that might help, is keeping a wry sense of the absurd lurking in the background. A great example of this sort of thing is the original "Conan the Barbarian" with Arnold Schwarzenegger (ca. 1980 before he was a big action star). Not a great movie, but they did the not taking themselves too seriously part really well without getting silly the way too many fantasy films do. My $0.02 FWIW. Good luck!
Hey thanks for the great comments! The feature length screenplay has most of the problems pretty well fixed - whenever I can make it, I'm sure you will be impressed!
Question; Just because they have grenades, why wouldn't they shoot them as soon as they walked away or before they got to close... I am left without suspension of disbelief because of this detail. Other than that, I like it. Make it happen as a movie.
Thank you for raising the issue of slavery. Slavery still exists in the United States. Alimony. One person owning part or all of another persons labors. Nothing is exchanged. If the slave does not pay, enforcers with sticks and guns will come and take the slaves property. If the slave does not have enough property, or resists the taking of the property, the enforcers will kidnap the slave and put the slave in a cage. Slavery currently exists in the United States. Alimony.
I liked this. Certainly it's got potential. Much of the credit however goes to the two lead actors, particularly the young woman, who is quite remarkable. If you develop this further I hope you will cast her again.
This was well done good acting especially the girl. It drew me in I started to care about the characters and want to know what the wanderer is after. Left me wanting more which I guess is the point of the film. I thought this was very realistic as to what a post apocalyptic world would be like. Slavery would certainly be one of the first things to happen, especially to women. If you think HUMANS are a civilized creature then you know nothing. Look what the NAZI's did during World War II or ANTIFA's Brown Shirt tactics of today. Look to the violence in the Middle East or Africa. CIVILIZATION is just a thin veil or veneer. It would not take much to bring it all tumbling down. IT HAS HAPPENED TO EVER SINGLE CIVILIZATION BEFORE US, AND IT WILL HAPPEN TO US.
Quality was grand on all but story, which is a clip from a movie that would be a GREAT advertisement. I couldn't suggest a fix. I liked it, but left wanting.
I am glad you liked it; in a sense, it's entirely meant to leave you wanting more, but you're right in that it could also be a better film. It's an advertisement of sorts, I'm working now to bring the rest of the film to life.
iharrup ❣️that would be wonderful!! 👏🏼Bravo👏🏼 I loved it! Yes I too was left wanting more & wondering what the 'mission' was, lol.. you guys did an amazing job! Please make something just like this just longer, 😊thank you😍💟☯️☮️
A+ for story, c- for some of the acting while i liked the two leads ,just some of the other characters especially the shoot out scene ,but for overall b- for your first try!
Ah, you warm my heart with this comment :D I'm working to get a feature length version of this in development, I've got the script in LA right now going around!
Great idea, decent execution. Realistic post-apocalypse costumes and behaviour. One thing that didn't pull off (perhaps due to the short format) was the fights. The river crossing conflict didn't make much sense to me. They could've been shot getting on the raft. Perhaps less guns and more knife-fighting would work better.
Fights are the hardest thing for amateur filmmakers to pull off; without stunt training, it's hard to make them look right. So you got me there, but that's an interesting thought: knife fights. Perhaps in the feature length version, there will be more of those... Thanks for your comment, glad you like the other aspects of it!
Yeah... everyone in the post-apocalypse seems to run around with an arsenal of guns... my guess is people would go with knives, bows, spears etc. Bullets run out and make noise, easier to be located. Another thing though.... the slave-girls with the chains. Personally I reckon the chains should be more of a hindrance. Like chain to each other, or tie the neck to the hands or something like that. Just a thought.
In cases like that I go with style over realism; it's hard to guess how people will actually live in that kind of environment, so a few things are up to creativity. In this, chains on necks are like a slave brand of sorts, though it could be simpler to just brand them haha
Hey everyone! Thanks so much for watching my short film! Here is a trailer to my first ever feature film! th-cam.com/video/XeanDbRiIqA/w-d-xo.html
I know it's been five years, but I'd still like to see more of this story. Well done!
Same name, older film th-cam.com/video/efw-Zb6e4fk/w-d-xo.html.
what a wonderful piece of filmmaking...wish it was a full feature! It leaves you itching for it to continue...thank you!
Thank you for your comment! One day it shall be a feature, I can't wait for you to see it!
you did a awesome job, I hope you make part two. Well done.
This is great, I'd like to see it as a series.
Truly outstanding and succeeds where many other shorts have failed; leaving me wanting more because in the short period of time that the video ran, I became invested in the characters.
Thank you, that's precisely the intent! I hope you'll like the feature whenever I can make it!
Fantastic! Do you have a web site or some way to follow you in this endeavor?
I watched it a second time and have one suggestion...These are survivors and would, if they had them, know how to handle firearms. The gun handling was the only part of the film that I thought needed work; number of shots fired before the firearm is empty and needs to reload as well as how the actors handled them. I'm a firearms instructor so it's something that I tend to notice. Beyond that, I can't wait for more!
Your firearms insight is invaluable, especially since I love using guns in my films. Hopefully my future projects are better up to snuff in that department!
As far as a website, I'm working on it! Thanks for your enthusiasm, I didn't expect the reception this film has received so far so I'm a little behind!
Glad I could help! Everyone starts somewhere and if this is your start, then you're far, far in front of the average!
Off to a good start! I would love to see a continuation to this!
Enjoyed from beginning to the end. Acting, concept and scenery.... Superb. When's next chapter?
Thank you again looking forward to seeing some more of your work
This was actually pretty uplifting compared to most post apocalyptic short films. Is there a part two? Would love to see it!
I'm glad you liked it, and thanks for the sub! It has been my wish for several years now to make a full length film of this story. At the moment I'm attempting to at least write a novel series, but I haven't forgotten the original intent of this short.
Nice to see one of these shorts that didn't have a depressing ending thanks.
You are very welcome! I personally prefer to write endings of hope and redemption - of course the characters must endure horrific trials to get there!
Nicely written, great actors ( I especially thought the lead "short" woman slave did an amazing job) and I appreciated all the little things like the dirt make up, torn clothes, homemade raft and barefeet...etc., that a lot of apocalypse videos are missing.
The only very minor and small critique...
If The Wanderer just won a fight to save himself from being taken as a slave he really should've taken the pistol, even if he is a "fair trader" he could've even given them the shovel, the orange and whatever it the other totally unidentifiable thing was as they left limping away.
But that's minor and just the way one viewer sees it.
Also I noticed that your credits are too small of a print for people like myself or watching on a large screen smartphone. Although I did find out the lead woman was named Anna, she was great.
I'm looking forward to her in the sequel.

Thank you so much! Your appreciation of my work means a lot to me :)
This is a pretty good short. But when they turned their backs for the raft, that is a true example of plot armor.
Please tell me there are more episodes.....I truly enjoyed watching this...it was well written and you chose your actors well...
Wonderful!!!👏👏👏👏👏
Watched it a while back somewhere else. Enjoyed watching it again. Hopefully you were able to get some additional episodes finished.
excelente corto post-apocalíptico con moraleja y aprendizaje, todavia quedara algo de valores en la humanidad al llegar esos tiempos!!!
This was good - I know such films are hard to make. 👏👏
I also thought the two main characters were well chosen, and performance was good. The script needs some work, and concept was intriguing and I also would enjoy seeing more of this. Good job.
I thought this showed a lot of potential. The music and sound really added dimension to the video.
Thanks so much, a lot of hard work went into it!
That was pretty well done, keep at it, definitely a cut above so many others out there !
Really nice makeup and action.
What a GOOOD GOOOD MAN
Cute story. I keep thinking that the apocalyptic shorts on you tube portray scenarios that are unlikely to occur in real life, but are entertaining in their own right.
yes I also want to see what happens. thanks, I enjoyed it
I'll simply say there's much to admire in this piece. Keep working it.
Thank you so much, I love the simplicity of your comment :)
Ian this was EXCELLENT
Thank you so much! I have another post apocalyptic short coming in the next few months, a brand new film!

That would be great. There is about 1.3K hoping this to happen also.
@@iharrup Soon, I hope 4-30-20
This film is pretty nice compared to most short moviesi'v seen here on TH-cam.
I wish them good luck in the future.
Thanks a lot, glad you like it!

Thanks! Someday you shall!
Captivating!
an amazing short you guys great job
Thanks very much!
Great film actually better than most professional films out there
Thanks! I'd like to make a professional film of this someday, hopefully keeping all the good parts of this short film!

luv the violin
That was just awesome and every way! I demand a part two!
Thanks so much! Working on the feature!
Sorta a cross between "the postman" and the outlaw josey wales.....
Nice comparison!
Is nobody going to talk about how he was firing the bolt action rifle like it was a semi-automatic with a magazine full of rounds?
it IS a semi-auto with 10-round magazine, known as the SKS.
Excellent!!!
Can't wait to see more
Thanks for your comment! I can't wait to show you more!
Talented man, Mr Harrup
Beeeeeutiful story ending.
Thank you kindly!
Brilliant!
Thank you very much!
Well done iharrup
Would love to see this in a movie, great acting
Glad you liked it!

Thanks for your comment! My full length film fixes this detail, among many others.
Good. After all it is the little things that make or break any thing. Good luck.
That is one of the things I notice there are quite a few more that just kind of ruined it for me
That one had me scratching my head as well.
I imagine that tall guy could throw a grenade a pretty good distance, but yeah that got me too.
Make this a movie please m8 I NEED more
You got it! Glad you like it!
Actually this is a good story line about six months after total collapse of everything that's exactly how it will be good work on your film love it

Interesting make part two!
You got it!
Good show abit short but good abit anyway i love it maybe longer one soon
That chain is pretty good for keeping.. Hehe
Very well done. I liked the story, the actors the acting and the effects as well. I'd like to see more, good job
Thank you so much, one day I shall bring it to you!
I'm a waiting
Check out my other films in the meantime!
Why didn't the villains shoot them as they paddled away ? Good enough for TV especially with more budget .
truth, I would have had them throw their guns in the water.....they can fish for them later....
I rarely say this, but that was quite good. You should make part two of this.
I appreciate this, I'm happy to have earned such a rarity. I plan to make a feature length eventually
That was cool.
omg. that was really good. I cant wait for the movie. or part 2. keep them coming.
I am shooting another short next month, one day I shall bring you the feature to this one!
I liked this. Certainly it's got potential. Much of the credit however goes to the two lead actors, particularly the young woman, who is quite remarkable. If you develop this further I hope you will cast her again.
I'm glad you like it, and that is the plan! Thank you for your comment!
Aaaah, I want more!!!!
I liked this it has potential, Im interested in talking more about putting together a full feature somehow..let me know
Check your email!
Cool👏👏👏👏😉
Thanks!
CANT WAIT TO SEE THE MOVIE
I'm working on it, trying to get a production company behind it!
👏👏👏
I agree with the rest. Good short. Looking forward to more.
I appreciate that, I can't wait to make more!
Really good job, good story. :)
Thanks for your comment!
Most welcome & deserved!
You're most welcome. :)
I wonder what the job was he wanted her to do😯

For sure.
On the level of Nuka-a-Break.
YES! I've been waiting for someone to bring that up, thanks!
You don't see many post apoc. flicks with a decent ending. This one ended well but left room for more, if you were so inclined. tomato meter: 9
well done
Thanks!
That’s it. Damn
I'm working to bring the rest to the big screen!
Very enjoyable, Good writing and acting.
Thank you, glad you like it!
Just my opinion. Your lead actor Danny Thomas was perfectly cast. Keep on making quality films like this one.
,
I will make sure to tell him that - and I will have more like this coming up soon!
Good video!!! I really like it!
Nice, had me from the beginning.
Quality was grand on all but story, which is a clip from a movie that would be a GREAT advertisement. I couldn't suggest a fix. I liked it, but left wanting.
I am glad you liked it; in a sense, it's entirely meant to leave you wanting more, but you're right in that it could also be a better film. It's an advertisement of sorts, I'm working now to bring the rest of the film to life.

iharrup ❣️that would be wonderful!! 👏🏼Bravo👏🏼 I loved it! Yes I too was left wanting more & wondering what the 'mission' was, lol.. you guys did an amazing job! Please make something just like this just longer, 😊thank you😍💟☯️☮️
Generally I don't like post-apocalyptic things, but that's really awesome.
Thank you! I'm honored!
Now I want to see the rest of the story
Well done !!!
Thanks so much!
A+ for story, c- for some of the acting while i liked the two leads ,just some of the other characters especially the shoot out scene ,but for overall b- for your first try!
is there a part 2 ? i could see where this could be a good series.
I'm working on a feature length!
More, more, more.
Perfect👌
Aw i love this
Glad you did!
