ADAM: Behind the Scenes

[@DeadWhiteButterflies]

If ADAM became available to crowdfund for a full length release, I'd put my money behind it no question.

[@Pajoncek]

you are not alone

[@BoMwarriorVlog]

Ditto here too.... Does Oats have a Patreon?

[@steveotheman1]

same

[@gundam0039]

4:35 Hey, it's Chappie :D

[@J.Panxer]

Really awesome how Oats is bypassing the hollywood system. I hope they pioneer a new business model for how creative projects get produced. May you always succeed over your enemies.

[@naamasharon4712]

word

[@WellBattle6]

Then again, Oats is hoping for someone from Hollywood to sponsor one of their projects into a movie.

[@PierceArner]

More of these, please! The BTS stuff is so excellent. (Also, I'd love to see more pieces of ADAM)

[@calvin4912]

Pierce Arner hey its not angory time

[@PierceArner]

Childish Calvino Hahaha! Not yet, but hopefully soon there'll be some new content from Tomask. (Always entertaining being recognized from other video comments. Have a good one!!)

[@SAFTH0DEN]

Oh look, it's they guy that comments on every one of Tom's videos :D

[@ethanclark6132]

I literally watched Adam for the first time yesterday...then rakkA and rain god. I'm hooked excellent I've never found something so deep

[@bluesquare001]

The film and this BTS are fantastic. Unity is a great engine but has gotten a bad rap in the last few years because of the abuse by some game developers, but it's great to see it being used in such an artful manner.

[@CristianJ_Rubio]

And they could really create a nice game out of it.

[@jingadom]

I see oats studio, I blindly click on it.

[@TrickWithAKnife]

Sometimes faith really is rewarded. WIth Neil, at least.

[@sada0101]

Harvesting human parts and putting their soul or consciousness inside robots as punishment? That is an awesome concept. Moar!!

[@robosergTV]

there is no soul...

[@bewusstsein3527]

@@robosergTV how about conciousness?

[@humanbeing1429]

And there was silence! @music Of nature Great reply

[@DKindenssFilms]

Neill Blomkamp you're my hero!!

[@Petey0707]

This motivated me to get back into game design. I worldbuild in my freetime and these videos have pushed me to create my own short films set within it. Using my skillset as a designer I feel that I've finally found the medium usable for my stories.

[@dduftucchc9546]

yeah , very inspiring

[@IsaakWolf]

So are you guys going full force on ADAM? everyone seems to have a big interest in it and im talking about your staff. it's an amazing concept with a rich world when looking into the small details.

[@BoMwarriorVlog]

I think they have at least 1 or 2 more episodes for this project due to the many different scenes (3:55, 5:46, 7:27, 8:25, 9:48) in this BTS that's not in Adam, parts 1 or 2.

[@IsaakWolf]

They do what i was merely stating is that this seems like something the studio is much more invested in. I was aware they had a few vids planned for it but this was the dream of neil. Plus they're still trying to figure out how to make money returns. since the studio is hemorrhaging money at the moment.

[@Prism_Heavy]

I'm not the only one here who agrees that we need more ADAM! This and the original first clip are some of the most beautiful short vids I've ever seen. Wonderful work as always.

[@grantpritchard7492]

"Genuinely curious", that's exactly how I feel about all of the Oats Studios' work.

[@mesavage1143]

Give Neil to direct a game and you’ll get masterpiece

[@Marienkarpfen]

Just like the tremendous movies right. if you have their technology and money at hand anyone could do that stuff, if not better movies.

[@GrayderFox]

I dunno man, he's a filmmaker, right? Not a game developer.

[@readhistory2023]

"Final Fantasy" used cutting edge CGI to tell the story and it nearly broke Sony Entertainment. Producers are in the business to make movies that people want to see, not movies about angsty cyborgs, good movie or not. We're not the average movie goers. They want "Fast and the Furious" part 27.

[@spincer3033]

Sup If only he directs HL3....

[@AcidWorksAnimation]

There is a compelling rumor that he's working with Hideo Kojima on Death Stranding...

[@xFromxthexchinex]

More from Oats :) Thank you!

[@lastone032085]

Need part 4 ASAP!

[@Mission.marketing.2022]

Honestly I think this needs to be brought back and made Into a whole show.

[@edgarazaky8256]

this is the type of animated movie i've been dreaming to see for 10 years,thank you Neil and thank you for everyone who works and supports Oats

[@TomeekaTalbot]

I am intrigued...I wanna see more of ADAM pls...a full length movie or series!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👌🏽

[@AdiusOmega]

I have never in my life crowd-funded anything. I would, without a second thought, donate to this "cause". What is happening here is big, really big, and Neil is at the fore-front of it with powerful ambition. I hope that someday I am able to participate in this evolution of technology.

[@rebelidsoftware747]

This is NextGen director/producer right there. Amazing guy and the team. You are the future, guys!

[@ksksksks9030]

We need more Adam!

[@mej6519]

love what you guys are doing. keep pushing that envelope.

[@ericgraham6745]

EXCELLENT!!!!

[@andriyignat8959]

The second part is coming??! Omg, I love you guys

[@crabstack5488]

Awesome animations and films! I can't wait to see more from you guys. It's great Unity is using you guys in their advertisements

[@kborton99]

I'd love to see Neil do a crowd funded movie based any of these oats studio creation!!!

[@JasonWill]

I was so excited to see this get picked up by Oats. The Unity demo left me wanting more and I couldn't be more excited to have Oats giving us the rest of the story! Great work!

[@clarkt55]

So excited to see more of this!

[@huskims]

You guys are amazing. Huge respect for all your work.

[@ChristianSachaNovak]

Creating worlds and in effect IP is a wonderful thing for you guys. Everything you have done has made me giddy and excited for the future of film. I hope this really does work and it really continues to the point you have a major success.

[@interestedinstuff]

So cool. I was super excited for OATS studios to come online. I loved what came out of it. I am hoping it hasn't folded up though because there hasn't been much these last few years.

[@vivekvadivelu150]

you guys doing an awesome thing... inspiring..

[@senselocke]

Since this seems to be the most recent video, I'll make a "general channel" comment here: *WOW.* Just, holy fucknuts, WOW. I watched half a dozen movie "concepts" and short films from Oats Studios in the past few days, and _every damned one_ has simply been amazing. A little creepy for my tastes, but just fucking amazing. Sorry for expletives, but you guys are doing some absolutely incredible work. Thank you!

[@BarnStangz]

This stuff is amazing and I'm looking forward to where it's headed and of course more content. I also REALLY hope that we see some kind of Alien "like" reboot from Neil and the gang. Seeing some of the story boards, I'm still so pumped for something, ANYTHING!

[@illformed]

Love your work, Neil (and crew!). I've been a fan since you first did Tetra Vaal waaay back in the day. Really enjoyed everything you've done with Oats so far, and I especially love these in-depth looks behind the scenes. Keep it up!

[@somefilmakerperson]

Never clicked a video so fast

[@ericgraham6745]

Fo Shizzle Me Too!!!!

[@MrNomads]

More please....please. we love it.

[@Charlie_Alpha_Lima]

I'm a simple man. I see a new upload from Oats and I smash that like button fucked up. THEN I watch! You guys make sick disgusting work!

[@AssassinDXZ]

Amazing work! I would freaking pay to see more of these and support you guys!

[@bibblebabble4265]

You're amazing, I watched firebase last night and really enjoyed it, can't wait to watch some more today!

[@MNAzriBA]

Please make it into a whole movie🎉🎉🎉

[@weber247]

Make no mistake, this production costs a lot of money, they are using the best equipment money can buy, but the imagination and knowledge of said equipment makes this seem a type of spare no expense endeavor, to Neil's credit the last few videos shorts have excellent quality but still limited to the available technology, which hopefully keeps up with the minds putting together these visually stunning pieces, keep them going, watched them all and want to see more.

[@weber247]

Your heart and mind are held captive by your iPhone, free yourself from the tyrrany of Apple products!

[@honka586]

You guys/gals really do some great work and can't wait to see more....Please make more episodes of ADAM!

[@johnw9131]

Umn I was just at oatsstudio website and got into watching Adam Ep2 before the 1st. Didn't like that I missed the very 1st of this masterpiece before getting to the second one. Really good stuff and respect!

[@riazulrahil]

I was so eager to hear from Neill Blomkamp about Adam project! fantastic BTS video!!

[@willdarby2410]

I love the adam films like i want more plz

[@chaileeportraits]

I feel like i need to see more... This is the best movie with a lot of emotions...

[@carlosr617]

Great job. We love it !!!

[@ArlekinVergeltungswaffe]

Omfg, this is amazing. I must apologice for my ignorance cause here I thought it was just CG environment and mocaps. Never knew how much work was put in this amazing two shorts. Altho, I was blown away for the story. Neil, a genius of our time.

[@andreasmuller2437]

This was amazing. Thank you!

[@dmohninger]

Really great BTS segment! I'm excited for more!

[@MegaTeeruk]

So this is how we all eventually end up in the matrix. Thanks Neil and Unity.

[@aliandrei5967]

you are amazing guyssss!

[@Overlord99762]

So you guys made it! I saw the first one and was blown the fuck away!

[@tytotheowl2994]

I've kept my eye on you and will continue to do so. I've done class presentations involving your work even. You are doing great.

[@senthilkumarpanneerselvam6657]

Thats fantastic work.

[@BikerNic]

Awesome guys. This really gives me hope to do my own movie in this way.

[@qwanom]

I would buy all your movies in one collection on Steam when you finish them. I was very impressed by God: Serengeti and ADAM. Nice job Oats Studios!

[@jaredpeacemaker795]

It's cool to watch this after watching episode 3

[@misterpha9158]

Make a movie please!! This storyline rocks!!!

[@simongravel7407]

That is some crazy location photogrammetry! :O

[@christopherrapczynski204]

Neil Blomkampf would probably be a great Hideo Kojimma type role, I'd love to see him work on a game.

[@nnalan4886]

How have these two not arranged a collabo? They seem to be smoking the same kush.

[@PatrioT76380]

He should do the MGS movie instead of Jordan Vogt-Roberts

[@paulmihailov1326]

Almost every single player narrative driven game already surpasses movies in terms of story. How much, how deep, choices you make, branching stories, characters written in more detail then some oscar winning movies.

[@timoconnor9489]

If there was one thing I could wish for it would be for Neil Blomkamp to work with Hideo Kojima on a project whether it be in cinema form or video game. That would be amazing.

[@FabrizioBogado]

AMAZING!!! Thanks for sharing!

[@YZaiCreates]

Games, film, tv merging together... That's what Hideo Kojima said about Death Stranding, though he added books and a music album into that mix too. Computer animation, games and the possibilities of real time rendering invite all manner of possibilities. Like that upcoming VR game that puts you in the role of an actor on stage, with other actual actors in real time.

[@Antigegner]

make movies, make tv series!! i can't wait to watch them all

[@NessHypegaming]

Can't wait to see this on Netflix

[@ChrisPlough]

I deeply fucking love this project! Thank you for sharing the process, thoughts and technology that are going into it.

[@qwanom]

When I started watching ADAM I was in doubt - is it a movie or 3D animation. The movement and the facial animation is so natural!

[@shacosleepwalker1170]

Please more need a movie of those graphics

[@nathanielwhitney1474]

Hell ya guys! I thought it was real for at least the first few minutes of the episode. Amazing job! Keep it up!

[@krosspath3549]

Beautiful.

[@jdgonzo1982]

amazing...that's all i can say...thank you for sharing with us :)

[@skybourne6]

Thank God for their expanding on this...

[@Fabiosek1]

WHERE IS EPISODE 4?!? THIS IS AMAZING!

[@crozraven]

Real time/live rendering should've been a popular thing in animation industry. The amount & time of works for the projects alone could be cut massively without losing any details & clarity.

[@joaocoelho8320]

please give us moreeeee!

[@aliasales]

Very nice work!

[@legend91678]

Wow amazing. I'm looking to invest in the near future in these types of technologies and Equiptment. Ready to go to the next levels.

[@jordanward2358]

I want more this is awesome

[@Simon74]

Still waiting for more Episodes of Adam!

[@georgenieuwoudt8070]

To be honest, what you guys are doing is amazing, no one is doing what you guys are doing. Hou so aan!

[@georgenieuwoudt8070]

This live action capture is similar in Hellblade Senua's Sacrifice

[@ASSADZMANFILMS]

This is so freaking awesome!!,Niel is so brilliant with his films and captures such great emotion even with motion capture,he is an inspiration and has such creativness with his films I wish to work with him one day on a film 👏👏👏🎥🎥 he And his crew are brilliant!!

[@ASSADZMANFILMS]

*Neill Blomkamp 👏🎥

[@chriscross5689]

Waiting for this to be a feature length movie.

[@WidowedSaturn]

Im so glad I took a second look of ADAM, years after the first short film. I didnt know that 2 episodes came out :). Also it seems like the photo realism setting is the same as VGHS lol.

[@Byjct10800x]

Great Job

[@spincer3033]

1:20 IS THAT CHAPPIE I SEE???

[@marty20000]

yeah

[@luluforte6587]

Still my favorite movie 👏

[@legion6148]

And ED-209 from RoboCop at 2:37

[@nathancox2349]

It would be really cool if this were to become a game, and throughout the game, each episode would be trying to find fragments of your identity

[@vincentsoares836]

Awesome work ! ( from Paris )

[@fantomagnik]

In Neill we trust!

[@W0lfenstrike]

Unity has got a bad rep thanks to the scummy and lazy developers who copy and paste each other's templates (known as 'asset flips'), but stuff like this shows what the engine is truly capable of if actual effort is put into it. I'd love it if they actually released the film's data to render in real time on my PC, it would be a treat to watch that same content in the future at 4k 60 fps :D

[@themannyzaur]

Hi. I'm a unity developer and I want to say that we are not lazy. Thanks :D

[@ShadowBurn680]

Anyone else notice that the real life captured space in the desert is where freddiew and corridor have filmed a few shorts.

[@SouthpawSatch]

I want Adam, the movie!

[@TheDaygobah]

I like your stuff man. I even met ya once at a bar then after sat in restaurant talked. Was in Chilliwack, BC Canada. I do not remember who was with ya. But they said they were also in the tv industry. But you worked on stargate and sorry that was cooler than what the other person did. This was sometime after Stargate got canceled and you were talking about going back to south africa to do your first film. I was excited to meet you after i found out you worked on stargate, my girlfriend didnt care. I was geeking out. You were not famous yet, but to me someone that was into computer graphics and did it for a living was really cool. I was impressed with the work you did on stargate. I did not realize until after seeing District 9 that is was you that directed that film. You were pretty cool person then and thankyou for bringing this studio to BC also. I want to see you make an epic video game, that has a great story and visuals. I would like to see sequel to District 9 please... Or a Prequel first then a sequel.

[@vledermaus]

This was amazing to watch, I had a little project recently where I also did a kinda film/game mix in Unreal Engine in Virtual Reality and we also used photogrammetry and wanted to use motion capture as well but we ran out of time, so I had to create some fast provisional animations myself, 2 days before we showed the project to an audience. I would've continued with it, but my team wasn't really helping much. But seeing this, man I wish I could join you with your unusual short films :D

[@JackkLadd]

So Awesome

[@nicksoutherly1]

ADAM should be made into a game.

[@omnislide]

Since the series was made to be rendered in real time by the unity engine, can we expect a VR version of it in the future?

[@gabethomas8123]

Wow... I’m sure it’s been considered

[@z_monty]

A very interesting idea!

[@raphsing]

I want to see some series about that production, characters, scenes.. modeling and texturing breakthrough, Please XD
