"Analog" Short Film

Analog

It titled "Analog and It takes place in 2040. Cybernetic augmentation is commonplace but heavily regulated. Red Wire, terrorists with illegal enhancements, fund their revolution by kidnapping people for ransom. When a husband is taken, a warrior who has unlocked almost superhuman abilities through intense mental training, has 60 minutes to save him. Can he survive without cybernetics and just pure will and training?

I used CC5, iClone 8, and UE5. The first short film for a new channel I’m starting!

well done!
Very polished production

Really solid cinematography there my friend.

Nice fight action. I love how the Red Wire kidnappers are honorable enough to attack the hero 1 at a time.

This was beautifully done. Very polished. Lighting, sound, music, effects. All worked seamlessly together. If I had to nitpick, the only thing that grabbed my attention in a negative way was the fight scene. Or more specifically, that only ONE bad guy at a time tried to fight the hero. I know adding two or more extra combatants into the mix would be a lot more difficult to animate. I think because the whole thing was so well done, that such a weird thing as ā€œtaking turnsā€ when fighting stood out to me. As I said though, I’m nitpicking. This film was awesome nonetheless!

Thank you! Took a bit, but figured out some good Path Tracer settings in UE5.

Thank you!

Thank you! Yeah, I kinda sped through this one since it started more as a practice project before my more in depth short I’m starting on now. I definitely see a lot of things that I’d like to tweak, particularly with the fighting. I’ll probably create something similar down the line and get a bit more in depth with the choreography.
For now, I’ll just claim that it was an intentional artistic choice to emulate all the old bad kung fu movies, LOL. :rofl:

The text imho need to not be on screen as long and maybe change the centre text to left instead, a little slow at the beginning but a really good job on the action and story, well done :smile:
