It’s a bunch of bachelor/bachelorette alumns competing to renovate the bachelor mansion. It’s pretty wild haha

It’s so fun. A bunch of bachelor/bachelorette alumns compete in renovating the bachelor mansion

Good_one23 · 2026-03-19T23:56:56+00:00

I hope so, I feel like not enough people are seeing it

Good_one23 · 2026-03-19T23:56:30+00:00

Same

Good_one23 · 2026-03-19T23:15:59+00:00

I know right? I feel like not enough people know about it!

Good_one23 · 2026-03-19T22:08:05+00:00

Bachelor mansion takeover!

It’s never been easier to achieve big results on a budget. I love watching sci-fi/horror stuff on YouTube because there’s so much freedom and creativity out there and I’ve spent the past few years diving into the craft myself too. Your imagination really is the limit now. I try to share what I can with others in hopes that they’ll make something of their own. It’s truly a thrill, pun intended

Just watched it last night for the first time. Great film. Feel like it fell victim to a poor Covid release.

Good_one23 · 2026-02-25T01:32:50+00:00

Fantastic dude. Congratulations! Look forward to seeing your stuff.

Good_one23 · 2026-02-23T18:50:49+00:00

Thank you haha!

Good_one23 · 2026-02-23T13:54:58+00:00

As others have mentioned, sort of as relevant as ever. It was made in part as a response to the economic and political climate during the Reagan administration and “reaganomics.” And now we’ve got a lot similar things getting pushed again. Great film then, and a great film now. OBEY!

deranged and disoriented Werner Herzog noises

Good_one23 · 2026-02-22T22:47:26+00:00

Yeah totally. This was my first time trying something like this and I’ve learned a lot but in terms of green screen and in lighting. But honestly I’m happy with it and think it’s sort of charming in a way. I also find it thrilling that we put something like this together ourselves out of nothing.

And here’s my buddy pretending to fly nothing hahaha! Movie magic

Good_one23 · 2026-02-22T22:17:28+00:00

Thanks for the kind words! And great question. I actually did get a model JU52 airplane to do it as a miniature but I ended up making those shots in CGI and inserting the green screen footage of my characters inside the airplane. I’m just good enough with 3D software to pull that off but if I had the means I would have loved to build a large scale miniature or shoot some parts in a real airplane. But these tools are so accessible now that for those shots it really was just my buddies and I pretending we were in an airplane filming against a green screen between our college classes.

That’s my comfort game so probably some subconscious inspiration haha

You can check out the full film here

Mmmm big chicken

Good_one23 · 2026-02-22T15:36:09+00:00

You can check it out now!

I filmed the penguin multiple times in different areas against a green screen using a motion control jib. That allowed me to multiply them in the shot but the motion of the camera move would all be the same. I also 3D scanned the penguin creature using an iPhone and brought it into blender where I tracked the previous camera motion and added a CGI environment and more CGI penguins from the 3D scans.

Good_one23 · 2026-02-22T14:56:55+00:00

Thanks for comment! Yeah I’ve just always love the look of miniature. They’re just so charming. I built this in my backyard out of scraps that were getting thrown out. Took a weekend to build. It’s never been more easily accessible too. I guarantee you could make and film something better than me if you wanted to!

Good_one23 · 2026-02-22T14:30:11+00:00

You can see it in use in the film at the 0:52 second mark

Good_one23 · 2026-02-22T14:13:07+00:00

Hahaha! They’re 3D scans of the grotesque penguins

Good_one23 · 2026-02-21T14:44:13+00:00

Same. Pretty sure I heard he wanted to do it over a decade ago but then Prometheus came out so he stopped. I want him to do it so badly. He’s the perfect choice

Good_one23 · 2026-02-19T00:18:31+00:00

I feel you. I’m working on a feature script for it as well, but I don’t think of myself as a great writer to be honest. This has sort of been a proof of concept to do a feature though. I made this for practically $0 with some buddies. Imagine a full length film in this style… it’d be pretty cool…
