2075: A Futuristic Sci-Fi Adventure | Post-Apocalyptic World & Special Effects Short Film
Welcome to the year 2075. In a world ravaged by asteroid impacts, humanity clings to survival amidst the ruins of a once-thriving civilization. This futuristic short film immerses you in a post-apocalyptic journey, where a father and daughter, Orion and Ryker, navigate the challenges of a drastically changed Earth 10 years after a catastrophic event reshaped our planet.
"2075" is not just a film; it's a visual odyssey that blends science fiction, action, and groundbreaking special effects to create a narrative that's as thought-provoking as it is thrilling. Crafted by the visionary @randysagefilms, this film is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of overwhelming odds.
Experience a world where the remnants of asteroid fields have not only altered the landscape but have given rise to new forms of life and unforeseen dangers. From criminal factions to otherworldly dragons and humans endowed with superpowers from asteroid remnants, every scene in this film is a glimpse into an extraordinary yet harrowing future.
Narrated through the eyes of Ryker, who was just an infant during the asteroid collision in 2065, the film offers a unique perspective on the new world. Her narration is a blend of her own experiences, and the tales passed down by her father, Orion, painting a vivid picture of life before and after the apocalypse.
The making of "2075" was a journey in itself. As the director, I spent over a year and a half writing, filming, and editing this, my most ambitious project to date. The challenges were immense, from mastering special effects to filming complex scenes with these effects in mind. Collaborating with @SammyDrones we captured breathtaking drone shots across the scenic landscapes of central Washington. The dedication of our talented local actors, who braved tough conditions to bring this story to life, cannot be overstated.
Thank you for joining us on this extraordinary journey. "2075" is more than a film; it's a window into a possible future, a reflection on our present, and a testament to the enduring power of storytelling.
Watch now and be part of this unforgettable adventure.

Directors Note: This is not a million dollar Hollywood production!! I filmed this for under $1000 and I do this for FUN...not a career. I wish I had more resources to please the keyboard warriors of the world, but I dont. Its just one guy doing the best he can with a vision, and local actors that had their hearts into this production. I appreciate all the positive comments and even the constructive ones posted below. However, if you have nothing better to do with your life than rip apart this film and be rude, your comments will be quickly deleted! Cheers and thank you for watching.
You are a great filmmaker and narrator. 👍 Honestly communicated this film is more impressive and fascinating than many of the million dollar productions.
@@gluecksdrache2054 Thank you so much for that! Really appreciate your input and feedback. Take care my friend!
JUST AWESOME
@@eddisonlewis8099 Thank you so much!!! Really appreciate that comment.
Interesting, your main effort now is to learn to direct the actors, in order that you make the audience believe in your story.
Very impressive visuals. I wish I had such abilities to film my Apophis Apocalypse stories, instead of just doing Audiobooks.
Thank you for the review. I would be interested in hearing your Sci-Fi stories. Maybe there's a movie in there somewhere? Where can I read them? Or listen?
It takes time and imagination to make even a short film like this . Hope to see more from you 🎉
I worked on this for over 1 year and yes, lots of imagination. Really appreciate the feedback my friend!
10000 you are insanely talented, the young dude was killer , make a part 2 I’ll watch for it.
Thank you so much!! I'm definitely going to make a sequel at some point.
I am an American, living and working in South Korea, and this week, I am showing this movie in my ESL classes! I particularly like how the narration of Ryker is slow enough and simple enough for an ESL audience.
Thats so awesome!!! Thank you my friend!
Her mom is an ESL teacher :) thank you for watching and sharing
That truck is in awfully good shape for being 90 years old.
It was kept in a garage covered until the 2 guys stole it! Thanks for watching!
Wait... didn't the apocalypse happen only 10 years previously?
@@ChickensAndGardening Yes that's correct.
10/10, held me from the get go. All aspects looked and sounded right, the scenery was stunning and I credit you for that, location, location, location. Thank you for this short film, keep the faith, ignore the jibes, be accountable only to yourself and take no prisoners along your path. Can you say where it was filmed?
Thank you so much for that review! We were fortunate to have such great locations for the production. This was filmed in and around Wenatchee which is located in central Washington state. My goal is to take all the criticism as constructive and use it accordingly for future films. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment here! Thank you!!
The cutest little girl telling is a great little story. Thank you for posting I enjoyed 😊
Thank you so much! I originally scripted the father for the narration but I thought it might be more effective for the girl to do it. I think it worked out pretty well! Appreciate the review!
@@randysagefilms The girl in the role takes it next level…make it that much more real.🫶
2075 Not many people left. Adventures of Dad & Son. Enjoyed! _____ Christ will still be KING 👑 ✝️ _____
It is dad and daughter fyi... and thanks again for watching!
The kid reading books in the car remind me of my own childhood. There are no more kids reading. everybody including adults are posting "shaist" in ticktock, Facebook and twitter x. No time to read. So sad. Our society is domed not from an asteroid but by our own hands. Technology has made things worst. More people lonely. More people thinking having 3k friends in Facebook it means they have friends at all. Loved the film. And knowing it was done with 1k$ - you are an amazing creator. Kudos!
Thank you so much for this review! You are absolutely right about the books. I included this aspect of the story for that reason. When the end of the world is upon us and there are no more cell phones, only books will remain. When the electric grid is taken out, only gas vehicles will remain. I appreciate you taking the time to comment. Its nice when people notice the little nuances in this film that make it unique and relative to what could possibly be our fate if such an event would occur. ..cheers!
I'm an old guy and I'm impressed with your story and production even with such a small budget. I've family living in the film locations.
Thank you my friend! Yes this is a great area to create film. Cheers!!
Will end up as a Netflix mini-series.
That is a good idea
I'm going to pitch it to them!! Hopefully!!
It left me wanting more. A series would be nice! I was entertained and that's what matters. So some actors aren't the best. Who cares when the content is so good!
Really appreciate this comment! I had fun creating this film regardless!
@@randysagefilms I'm sure you did have fun. With such a tight budget it delivered. Unpredictable, at times, those what moments are personally what I like.
I think u did a great job....learn from ur errors and keep at it....u never know what the future holds..
Thank you so much for that! I try to improve with every film and will continue for sure. Appreciate you watching.
Take the trashy comments as the trash they are. This was outstanding. I'm positively blown away by the special effects you managed on a $1k budget. Scenery was stunning. Wardrobe was fantastic. Thank you for making this labor of love and allowing us to participate. Very, very well done sir.
Great comment here! Really appreciate the words of encouragement. Im proud of what I accomplished here given the budget and this was definitely my labor of love!
100 % agree.
Thank you Randy. A most wonderful production. Story was great, actors were perfect and your visuals were out of this world. Better than anything Hollywood puts out. The only thing I kinda have a problem with? Is the year 2075. Thinking this will be our world way much sooner than anyone imagines. Again ... Thank you for sharing this. Much appreciated!
My birth year is 1975 so this happens when Im 100! haha...Thank you for watching!!
2075! That bow tie must've come from a museum!! Such great shape, huh?
I dont remember a bow tie in the film but thanks for watching.
Lol love the couch critics on a free movie lol.
You should see the fun comments I have deleted. I am a low budget film maker with a normal day job. If you want a better movie experience, go to the theatre! haha
Ignore the trolls mate, there are always plenty of know it all's bravely hiding behind their computers ready to dish out some poison. Thanks to you and your team for all the hard work and keep on trucking. Who knows what the future holds.
I agree! Thank you for this comment. It's nice to hear reviews like this after all the hard work that goes into a film. Cheers!!
Better than some million dollar productions,, great dragon,
You're too kind!! Appreciate the review. The dragons were fun to work with for sure!
I hope you do another one.@@randysagefilms
Note... In a emergency please drive on a flat tire. It will be much better then walking.
I agree! But the truck was borrowed and it looked way cooler to see him walk away down the road. I also needed to buy some time so he didn't catch up to them too quickly. Thank you for watching!
@@randysagefilms I just finished your video. It was very well done considering the limited budget. The truck is very cool. I wish it had more engine noise and perhaps some sliding around corners. But please no tire squealing on the dirt for future reference if you decide to make another.
@@NBC_NCO Thank you for watching! What do you mean by tire squeeling? Like on the dirt?
@randysagefilms It's the sound tires make when they are losing their grip. This sound only happens on asphalt, blacktop, and concrete in real life. Not grass, snow, or dirt. Audio engineers, movie makers, and / or script writers seem to get this wrong quite often evan when it's in a video game.
@@NBC_NCO I know what it is but I didn't overdub any street tire sounds on dirt in this film. Its live audio from the dirt. So was a bit confused!
All this happens because of some man who sits in his office refuse to listen to the scientist warning.
Exactly. Probably not too far from the truth if it ever happens here. Thank you for watching my friend!
Great short film. Thanks for posting
Thank you so much for the review! I put a lot of time into this and appreciate the feedback.
Father and Son. This was awesome to watch. Good job. 👌
Thank you for watching! And just fyi Ryker is his daughter. Appreciate the comment.
@@randysagefilms I'm so sorry, forgive me. I totally enjoyed watching this. Sorry again. 🤐 😔
I would like to see this as a full length movie. I thought it was really good, but way to short.
Thank you! I will be filming some shorts in 2025 that go more into depth on character development and filling in the gaps of this film. Hopefully I can put it all together and sell it as a full length film. Thank you for commenting!
@@randysagefilms That sounds great. All the best & I'll keep an eye out. 🤍
So basically one possible future of the earth is to turn into a real life video game. At least it's nice to know physical books will survive.
Thank you for the comments! Never thought about it that way but youre right, this film is kind of like a real life video game. And yes, I brought in real books for that reason. Nice observation my friend! Thank you for watching.
Good story for sure. Definitely a fresh post apocalyptic story. I would love to see a full film with a hearty budget
I agree!!! Thank you for watching my friend!
Great creativity, your dream came true in a movie, excellent job
Thank you so much! Appreciate the review!!
Thank you, great filming, beautiful landscapes, good acting.
Thank you for watching and reviewing!!
happy to be apart of this ❤❤ you did a great job Randy!!
Thank you for being a part of this! You were fantastic!!!
Good jobbbbb❤
More!!
Appreciate that! Working on another Sci-Fi film as we speak!
@@randysagefilms Excellent work. Much better than the rest
@@allencampbell8322 Thank you my friend!!
As a parent when I say to my children DON'T MOVE. I mean that they must stay where they are. I don't like it when children disobey my rules. I plan for every possible situation.
Thank you for watching!
I’ll be 101 years old at this time.
I will be exactly 100! That's the main reason for the title. Thanks for commenting!
I be 118 years old
I'll be 135 😅
For the probable lack of a budget, this was pretty good, effects were good, gotta work on the story line a little bit but overall kept my attention without raising my eyebrows too often.
This film was created for under $1,000. Im sure there are many things I need to work on, but I try to learn from my mistakes for each passing film. Thank you for the review!
You didn't really make any mistakes though. Well, none that seem to have ended up in the final version. Sure, experience, bigger budgets, and better SFX etc will help you in the future, but I see great building blocks to build upon. Remember, every famous director, writer, cinematographer etc started somewhere. As long as you keep the spark, the passion for your work you'll be on the right path.
Wow never would've guessed that low a budget
Looks great. Keep pushing. Know the feeling! Working on a post apocalypse feature soon myself. Nice film work.
Had my interest up until the super powers bud. But keep reading please. If I might add, you have great potential if you can take this on a more realistic level? Same cast but more so as wondering survivors who fight maybe for water supply or something. Your city effects are excellent! The asteroid hit scenes. Nicely done! Dragon effects would have been better I think if you darkened the scenes more post apocalypse background and sky, dreary or raining and storming? I was OK on those. It was the super powers parts that I give you thumbs up and thumbs down if you don't mind my honest feedback as a fellow low budget action indie feature film director. Your cover poster drew me IN! Love it too! Great artwork. Ever consider a redo without the super hero addition, let me know, I'd be interested in watching any redo. Nothing against your super hero cast. Adding more hand to hand combat skills like book of Eli is where I'm taking mine. Called The Last Woman Alive. Pre production. You should also check out Bushwick. Good flick! Keep rocking bud! 😎 👍75% great from me. Definitely potential here as low budget directors, producers, we only get better with each new film. Nice drone shots too. What's my experience? I'm one of largest action indie film productions in DFW, Tx. Typically 40 to 60 cast & crew. 2 features in post edit. 2 features on pause due to weather. 2 in pre production casting. 15 crew. Best of luck!!
Stunning and haunting film❤
Thank you my friend!!
I enjoyed the CGI, the monsters, the great scenery, and the adventure of escape/avoiding danger. The voices at times were not clear, a bit muffled. The story could benefit from a little more character development so I could feel and sense their issues/problems and identify more with their inner world. But overall, I enjoyed the production. Very imaginative. It held my interest/attention. Nice job!
Thanks for the honest feedback! Yes, in this film audio was a challenge. I unfortunately was using a condenser mic for a good portion of the film. In post production I have to roll off the highs to avoid hissing and the subsequent noise reduction will cause audio to not be as clear as it should be. I have since purchased a better shotgun mic which I did use for the narration and voice overs however, I will use this mic primarily in future projects. Character development is definitely my weakness. Will also be putting emphasis on this aspect moving forward as well. I appreciate you watching and cheers to you my friend!
I think issues with character development and portraying inner conflict with characters are a high fence for most artists/dramatic productions. It just takes time/effort. Just stick with it and hone your craft and you'll do very well. Soon you'll be making successful films both artistically and commercially. This is my prediction. Best to you! @@randysagefilms
Beginning had a Mad Maxx vibe. I loved the dragons. Wanted to know more about them - where they came from, how much destruction had they caused. Are there any underground shelters where pockets of civilization had survived? Anyways, thanks for this amazing little movie that punches above its weight. Kept my attention to the end.
I will be releasing some short 5 to 10 minute films that focus on character development and explaining just what you're asking. Please subscribe and get notified when I do! Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment here. Cheers!
I always wonder where the gasoline comes from? It has a shelf life.
Gasoline would possibly still exist in tanks and random storage devices. If stored properly it could still be good 10 years later. And since I created this story, it's true! Lol
@@randysagefilms I imagine a vehicle designed 40 years from now would get like 400 miles per gallon. So they could travel for weeks or months without needing a fill up.
In 2075 wouldn't all cars be electric?
Us wouldn't all cars have run flat tyres by then?
@@chrislaurenceleo That truck was built in the 1970s so no...it wouldn't! Thanks for watching.
this was one of the best short films I have seen - made me want to see more of their journey - well done people
Thank you so much!! Great to hear you liked it so much! Really appreciate your response my friend!
Epic!!. Thank you for including me bro. P.S. those drone shots are on point 😳
Your drone shots helped make this film what it is. Really appreciate your work on this my friend!
Okay, first off, I really want one of those vehicles. Whatever it's usually used for, it looks fun! 3 mins ish, no spare tyre? 12 mins ish, why blow up a building you could shelter in? Anyway, my main takeaway from this, fantastic cinematography. The big landscape stuff was really well framed. So, a post apocalypse, survival, superhero premise? Why not. This could easily develop into a multi-strand series.
Thank you for the honest review. First off yes, no spare tire. I wanted the bad guy to walk to give the main characters some space in the story. And at 12 minutes he accidentally blew up the building with powers he didn't know he had at the time. Thank you so much for watching!
@@randysagefilms I guess that spare tyres could be a scare resource in that time. Are you planning on continuing this when you have the time and funds? I hope you do.
scarey landscape thanx for the view.
Thank you for the comment!
I hope you continue. Very nicely done and a decent plot line
My goal is to make films forever! Thank you for watching and appreciate the feedback.
No words for this movie, except the visual effects were good.
Thank you for watching!
TO EVRYONE who made this possible.... YOU ALL KICK ASS! THIS was FANTASTIC!
Thank you my friend! Appreciate the comments!!
Was waiting for her to come out as a dragon master and saviour of the world... Special effects should be left for uni students looking to get experience (plenty time on their hands very efficient with projects letting them progress with their future career). Star Wars was remastered - you can get your movie remastered when part two will be made. You know the one about girl and the dragons...
That's a great idea about the girl becoming the dragon master!! And what is a UNI student if you don't mind me asking? Would love some help with the special effects. Thanks for watching!
@@randysagefilms university/college if not in America just look for helping hand in Europe. Good luck with your future ventures 💪
What a great fantasy short film. This is like X-men apocalypse 😂 Please make a full movie about our current situation in real life heading towards a civil war to a post-apocalypse.
Great idea! Thank you so much for the review my friend 🤙
Gonna need kick starter for that. You'll need a lot of extras. Can't be just a bottle film with a handful of ppl
@@Sammy_Boy_Smith AI and green screen exists in this day of age. Just need a couple of guys who knows how to act and put the pieces together. There are a ton of news footage in the real world showing the border crisis, riots in the capital, store looting, street blocking, car jacking, inflation crises and etc. Right now we have millions of illegals crossing our borders every day and joe biden has been letting it happen under his watch. Texas authorities is now blocking the fed so that they can start arresting illegals and deporting them back. The current corrupt government, biden’s administration, democrats are trying really hard to cheat the election again by voting for a fake republican name Nicky Hailey but luckily, Trump is still winning because we MAGAs are his loyalists. Trump is winning all the Conservative Asians, Blacks and Mexican votes. With that said, when Trump gets into office, there’s gonna be a huge civil war. It’s us against the commie left and the deep state DEMONcrats. It’s gonna be a 1776 all over again.
Still watching but paused to say I’m loving it so far! 🙏 thank you
Thank you for all your comments here! Really appreciate you taking the time to watch!
It is what it is, but got the point missing some other things. It’s got my attention well done.
Appreciate the feedback! Thank you for watching.
Wow!!! Great job with this movie my friend.
I appreciate the comment! Thanks for watching!
Randy, you are a natural, please make lots of movies, these are so much better than hollywood!
Great job! I wish you get access to more funding to make better movies.
I appreciate the feedback! I hope so too.
Considering the limits of the CGI/SFX (Not a criticism). This has the making of an interesting series. I would hope there is more to come. Definitely a good base to see how their journey develops. Well done.
I'm sorry for the late reply. I appreciate the review. It was my first time working with special effects and I definitely have a lot to learn. I will be expanding on this film in the future for sure! Thanks again my friend!
Good work! Especially considering the low budget. I liked that you had the kid narrate the story!
Thank you so much!! Appreciate the review!!
Very good short film! I love sci fi. One question, why didn't he shoot the dragon from the get go? Keep up the good work! The actors did an amazing job! God bless to yall always!!!
Thank you for the comment. Initially he thought the dragon may have flown away cause he didn't see it himself. I suppose he should have grabbed the weapon immediately but that's just how I wrote the script, so I went with it. Appreciate the review!
Was getting into it then the dragons - why are they still driving Fossil cars in 2070 surely they would be riding dinosaurs 🦖
If you follow the narration the dragons came from eggs that traveled with the asteroids. I had the dragon special effects and wanted to include them into the story. Keep in mind this is a fictional piece, created from my mind. Its not meant to be an acurate portrail of what would happen if asteroids hit earth, rather something that is possible and unique as a film maker. I grabbed a page out of Mad Max with the fossil cars in the future, mostly because I didn't have any 2070 model cars laying around for use in the film. Thanks for watching!
@@randysagefilms I truly bow down to your ability, I have never made a film, it grabbed me and after getting into the start chase then following the back story was caught hook, line and sinker, there is nothing wrong with space dragons, but it's a different genre from astroid collapse of civilization. I like films like attack of the 50 ft woman, Godzilla and such. I will watch the entire movie and critic the dragons again. Dragonlance was a teenage favourite of mine and dragons are such a spiritual, magical symbolism of both balance and longevity.
The Scenery fantastic, the actors 'marvelous' pun. 2 of the 5 storylines grabbing. Effects good - bit sketchy in places ( fight scene though good was very power rangers) Sorry, but in a corny b movie cool way. Great imagination and sure you will spawn some fantastic if not epic movies in the future. Could almost be Conan the barbarian Vs dragon spawn. Entertaining and I agree with the detailed critic of others, which I am sure is detailed due to your uncut diamond talent that shines through in parts.
Excellent
Thank you for the comment! I appreciate you watching.
Wow. Under 1.000,00. That's a wonder. I do not want to know what you do with 1 million. Watching from Germany.
I might make another film for $1000 and pocket the rest! Haha Just kidding! Would love to have a budget and a crew behind me. Thank you for watching my friend!
At first, I really loved it but come on dragons superpowers immortality. It really didn’t need that.
My friend this is a FICTIONAL STORY! Am I supposed to write and create films like everyone else? Why can't I be original? My story is different and I am proud of what I accomplished. A piece of advice for you my friend, stay away from science fiction cause you will always be disappointed. In the coming years I will be creating several short spin offs that go into depth on all these unique features this film has to offer. Your comment will not deter me either. Thank you for watching!
Нормально так на столетней колымаге гоняют. Жив курилка, жив ещё.
Excellent cinematography 👍👍
Thank you for that! We had some great locations to work with and that definitely helped with the cinematography. Cheers my friend!
Wow!!!! I LOVE THIS!!!!! 🤩
Thank you so much! It was fun to create for sure.
Loved your film Randy!!! What a GREAT cinematic adventure. Well written, well narated, well written, decent special effects -- CRAZY good 4k video. GREAT drone camera work... I think this will change the film industry. Really enjoyed the acting, and plot. I know it is low budget, but WELL DONE! ...Really enjoyed it!!!
$1000!?!?! what a frickin GENIUS!!! wow!!! ...very impressed. Thanks, so much, Randy!!!
Really appreciate this comment!!! I love getting reviews like this. It lets me know I'm on the right track. Cheers my friend!
great job on a low budget. I'd like to see what you did with more money in a production! keep up the great job
Thank you for watching my friend! One of these days I will work with a budget and am excited to see the outcome as well... Cheers!
He gets superpowers and the first thing that he does with them is destroy a house. 11:42
If you look closely it was accidental. At the time he didn't realize what the green arora was and was just trying to shake it off. Thanks for watching!
Excellent!
Thank you so much!!
Very well done 👍 I look forward to continuing this journey.
Thank you so much!! Sorry for the late reply. Cheers my friend!
I look through the comment section and I see what you think of people's criticism, so I'll just make two short statements: in spite of really not liking it I still have to say I'm very impressed with what you did on $1,000 budget.
Thank you for the reply. I know I can't please everyone but I try to take the criticism as best I can. I guess it's just hard sometimes when I put so much effort into a film and its ripped apart like I'm suppose to be some high profile filmmaker releasing garbage movies. I know I have a lot to learn but I feel I'm doing ok given my budget and lack of professional production crew. In truth, there are several aspects I wish were better about this film and how I created it. For now, I just have to swallow the fact that people like yourself didn't like the film for whatever reason and strive to improve. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment!
@@randysagefilms I see you also don't do too well at taking a compliment. My comment didn't only say I didn't like the film, I said I was quite impressed with what you did on the little money you had.
@@aquariandawn4750 Ouch!! I guess I should've said thank you for that. I appreciate your compliment. My apologies!
@@leoncaravelli I blame the internet... & fast food. I'm off the fast food but still mainlining the internet too much.
I thought this was a very well done Film like it
Thank you my friend! Appreciate the comment.
Brings back memories of my childhood in Glasgow.
When is a person stupid? When he's stupid I like 🎬 ❤
Thank you for watching and for the review!!
Awesome!! Glad to be part of it!
These drone shots made the film!! Appreciate you my friend
ONLY GOD GIVES ETERNAL LIFE 🙂,
Unless it's a fictional Sci-Fi film...then it's the asteroids! Thank you for watching my friend!
If you believe in this, you are believing in a Illusion, not more and not less.
Only if you will be a SLAVE and believe in unbelievable things...not my thing as I've already been a slave to a power crazed freak as a kid, why would I bow to another one? I WALK THROUGH WALLS!
Pretty good little flick. Thank you!
Appreciate the review! Cheers
I loved it… keep up the good work
Thank you for the comment! Appreciate you taking the time to watch.
Super bien choc 2075 mouveau futur regarde vers bien films 😀🥺
Excellent work, I liked the storyline, props and acting. A lot of time, effort, and people to create this is evident. Keep honing your directing, and storylines. God bless you!
Thank you so much! I appreciate this comment!!
❤
I started watching this and ended up pausing to get a snack preparing for a good story, damn good story the only problem i found is its just too short....i want more a full feature length film please
One of these days I will produce a feature. Would need a good script and a budget to really pull it off right. Thank you for watching!!
Great work, wish I could produce stuff like this!
Thank you! It definitely takes time but worth it in the end. If you have a camera and a vision for the project you can do it. Just be patient with it. Cheers!
Good job Randy. Great visuals too. U indicate this film was made for" under $1000". For people like myself who would like to explore filmmaking with a $1000 budget, what are some of the important steps or even begin? Thank you for any advice
Thank you for the comment! My advice is to stick to the fundamentals to make your films look as Hollywood as possible. Have a good story, know how to set your camera up to record with cinematic qualities, focus on proper composition for every shot, select the right music for each scene, and of course take your time with the editing process...just to name a few! Best of luck my friend and thank you for watching!!
I see that you don't want "rude" comments left. But, suggesting that Saturn will move millions of miles closer to Earth is ok. Got it.
My friend I know this might be difficult to understand but this film is NOT REAL!! ITS FICTION!! That means I created it from my mind. Saturn is and never will be close enough to the earth to see with the naked eye. Neither are dragons or super powers, but I wanted to have fun with the special effects and storyline. I did this successfully and I'm proud of the final product after putting an entire year into creating this. Thanks for watching.
Good music, cinematography, editing, and b roll. Reasonable graphics. The acting was okay. The film did suffer a bit from weak casting with implausible sci fi holes like obesity ten years after a catastrophic event, and bad wardrobe including spotless clothing while enduring survival, etc. Overall, a strong effort.
Appreciate the honest review! I agree with you on the wardrobe. I focused on the clothing choices but should have made them dirtier for sure. As a film maker its my job to make sure the acting is on point and believable. I need to work on that! I am a one-man band here and during filming its sometimes difficult to get everything just right. I am probably too focused on getting the shot, audio, and framing. Regardless, this film was fun to make. The actors gave it their best. And I am slowly working on perfecting this craft, one film at a time. Thank you for watching my friend!
Thanks for the response to my comment. Would you care to share some thoughts about some of your gear and software choices for this production?@@randysagefilms
Sure! This was the last production with my old gear. In this film I used a Nikon Z7 mirror-less camera in 4K at 24 fps and a Nikor Prime 50mm f1.8 lens. I edited everything in Adobe Premier Pro and purchased the royalty free music from Ghosthack. I recently upgraded to a Panasonic S1H Mirror-less camera and a DZO Films Cinema Prime 35mm lens. I also upgraded all my audio gear and now use a Rode NTG4 shotgun mic. I used a Rode mini condenser mic in this production but had some issues in post-production with noise reduction...but I managed.
Hey…..I enjoyed this, and like the story. Great job!!! I love these independent short films! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you so much! Appreciate you taking the time to watch.

This is the begining of the end
Thank you for watching!
Bravo, Well done
Thank you my friend! Cheers
Nice if it was a series
I agreed
Maybe one of these days I can sell the idea for a series. Thank you for watching!
You lost me with the dragons. Excellent work though
The dragons make the story unique and unlike any other post-apocalyptic film out there. I wanted to create a story that was like a live comic book, and had possibilities beyond a general dystopian theme. I appreciate you watching and glad you liked it otherwise!
OH I love my Sci-fi movies and this was better than most of the B movies with a large budget that I watch. #Truth , Great effects, but how on no budget🤷♂ , well any way Go Big or Go Home , You are going Big 💫👍 ... Excellent short film with a lot fitted in . Good Actors and Actresses esp the Daughter , she was Brilliant. ...
Thank you so much my friend! I spent a year of my life wrenching on this film and learning how to use the special effects which was most of the budget. Really appreciate the review here! Cheers!!
Remind me Shakthiman series from 1999 Indian television series
Need more of this please?
Really well done, more so considering the budget. Columbia gorge? Horse heaven hills?
Thank you my friend! The intro was shot up on the Rock Island grade. And the rest in and out of Wenatchee. Birch mountain towards the end. Appreciate the comment!
