[URL]http://vimeo.com/75781782[/URL] this is making a pretty big impact on vimeo right now, there's not much to it so far, but it's pretty neato as a concept trailer
It's been worked on since 2011, surprised it hasn't been fully made yet.
That is some slick CGI right there, a full film on this story would blow a lot of Hollywood stuff out of the water so quickly. a few those robots look very similar to one of the playermodels in blacklight:retribution [img_thumb]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120608181856/blacklighttangodown/images/c/c3/MARS_PACK.jpg[/img_thumb] Seems to have a very similar art direction which imo is pretty awesome.
Y'know i've given it some thought- why's all the cool shit like this SHORT cgi films? I mean... There's a few reasons why I can understand they're short because of things like budget perhaps. But it'd be great to see this made into a full-length film without losing its touch.
That was really cool, would love to see a full movie based on this

There's a lot of backstory, sure, but nothing that actively stands out for a story. [sp]i could be wrong i watched it without sound[/sp]

It's just now making an impact? I watched that trailer as part of a 3D modelling class two years ago, it's been around for a while. I haven't heard any word on release of a full film. Also, fun fact: the entire video is CGI. Everything you see is computer-generated.

My mistake. I really hope they can make a feature film out of this.
Man I've been waiting forever for this. Is it really coming out tomorrow?
I absolutely love the robots.
All I could think of during the begining of the vid [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSwceekphqU[/media]
getting some really nice district 9 vibes

I absolutely love CGI of this quality. You know, where it feels [I]real[/I]. [i]oh god, that lighting is amazing[/i]
My biggest question is, why isn't some major motion picture company funding this? Because if they made a full-feature movie about this it'd probably become a money fountain.

The end reminds me of the robot from the Routine trailer.
When can I see more of this?
The big 4 legged ones remind me of the Deus Ex robots that fill the role of a tank.
