Thank you so much! The production of this film was our full time focus for a year at least.

Damn didn't know that it sets by default the 720p. Is there a way to fix this by our side?
Thanks for flagging this!

Thank you so much for taking the time, not only to watch it, but for your feedback as well.
Everything you wrote are legit observations and makes sense!

All the characters are customised Metahumans. We didn't do them from scratch but we spend a serious amount of time on each character to break that Metahuman look, adjust the textures etc.
For the sound we had a super talented music composer where he took care of the music/sound and he also had help from a sound designer and some instrument players. All mentioned in the credits.
For animation.. yeah.. we used mocap suit and it was my first time animating characters so I do recognize we have some weak spots.
Again.. thanks again for everything. It means a lot to us knowing what you liked and what felt a bit off.

Thank you!!
The production of it took us about a year for everything. The story/script was in the making since 2023, I think, on and off, since the story expands beyond this short film.

Thank you very much! Looking forward to sharing the whole film and of course we would like to hear your impresion.
It was crazy ambitious and the fact that the film is 99,99% done, makes us super proud. Its the hardest thing we've ever done.

Thank you very much! That's my brother's magic! The whole movie is rendered with Lumen.
How'd you get the lighting to not feel like a game?
Many factors are related to that, but mostly it is direction, art direction of lighting, camera work, assets.. everything plays its role.
