Aliens: LV-426

FINALLY, after so much time, a new video, yay! 😊 Hope you like it, another beach shoot, another stunning model, and another Nikon camera review 😅 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYS0maJ5isxmhNk

[@CapralHarrison]

Hey, i know it does not really correlates with canon, but let me try to theorise where exactly i think this short movie happened. I think it happened in alternative universe, there were a different colony in LV-426, more advanced and weaponised - they had battle cyborgs. I think commanding officers of the colony already knew that there is a xenomorphs on the planet, so they started to send people there. Mentioned patient zero were the first woman who encountered eggs - and been jmped up with facehugger. Another patients also went under the same fate. That cyborg shooting patients - is colony oficers realising that they let things get out of control and too many now infected, so they killed remaining hosts. But it was too late, since xenos made a hive in the shores of the colony. Newt's mother were along the infected. Newt herself managed to escape and hide, while reesearch staff, soldiers, cyborgs and officers were fighting the aliens, but they were overwhelmed. Ripley and the marines arrived few days later. But whole situation went a little different that were in Aliens. Bishop loaded all the information from colony's black box and needed to transfer that information back to the company. But in result, USCM rescue operation went in disaster, so in the end before nuclear exposion in the colony Ripley, Newt and corporal Hicks managed to escape. Bishop chose to stay on the planet to give them time to fly away. Unortunatelly, they missed a facehugger on the ship. So when they went cryotubes, facehugger successfully infected Ripley, but caused a fire onto Sulako. Then, pretty much Alien 3 happened, but with Newt and Hicks survived. Ripley also realised that she was infected, and killed herself in front of arrived WY stuff, and also distracting them from Newt and Hicks escaping the planet. Years passed. Hicks and Newt joined the galactic nomads, and Newt swore on her parent's grave to fight Weyland Yutani and the xenomorph, because they took everything she loved and cared about. One of these days she took a ship and flew to the ruins of the colony on LV-426 to face her past and what really happened on that colony. And to say her goodbyes.

[@chriscooper654]

Minimalism done right. A moving tribute to the original story. Also a great job of exploring the humanity of Bishop's character.

[@sergiobmarcon]

Hi guys, it's Sergio Barreto from Brazil here. We'd like to thanks for all the feedback, it's been a joyfull ride for all of us. We're simply thrilled, so thanks a lot! It's been a pleasure and an honor to have lived such an iconic character. A character that's now imortal in our hearts, through the iconic performance by Lance Henriksen.

[@DWor-]

Hard work. Closure for Newt. Very spot-on cast hired for it. Well done! (rough narrative!)

Thank you D. Wor! Really sorry for taking so long to reply, I was too focused on my photography channel that I didn't notice so many new comments on our Aliens short film. I appreciate a lot that you enjoyed our little film, thank you! Luiza Greca surely was the perfect cast for Newt, we were all very proud of her work. If you want to support us, please give a like on our photography videos. These short films are just a hobby, the actual focus of the channel are the fashion photo shoot videos. I'll leave a link, if you can, please leave a like to help us :) Here's a bikini shoot with the gorgeous Aline Zermiani, former holder of a prestigious beauty title kzbin.info/www/bejne/e36co5yMadeXpqc Thank you so much!

[@KrypticStudiosCorp]

This is what Aliens 3 should have been, where the movie we actually got could have been the "twist end reveal" as Newt uncovers even darker truths and conspiracies involving the WYC.

[@thudthud5423]

Very well done. No gore. Nothing very violent. Very emotional and sad. Yet, it feels very much like an Alien movie.

[@CWRardin]

"Whenever you think of me, I'll be by your side, whispering to your heart." Lovely, thank you.

[@Kitsune1978]

Bishop looked more like Hicks ;) all in all great contribution to the Alien universe. Thank you!

[@subzerodon]

I'm an aspiring filmmaker, and a die hard fan of H.R. Geiger's concept. This was a gift he left for all of us. What you did here, with this clip, is elaborate and expanded a little further on this gift, and in another language. You continued the art with the beauty of giving it in another language. This was phenomenal! Thank you. 😚😘😉👍🏾

[@rodterrell304]

Kinda gives some continuity to the "Aliens" (which was a great sequal) Movie, excellent story choice and execution.

Hi! Some folks are wondering where this story takes place in the canon timeline, and it simply fits nowhere. ;) We had less than a thousand bucks for the entire production, so the only way to go would be to keep things simple, and play with a minimalist story. As amateur films are so hard to produce, it'd be too complex for our budget to create new characters, and start their development arcs from the beginning. We decided the only possible scenario would be to play with already existing characters (whose arcs every Alien fan already knows), and simply go from there, exploring an alternate storyline for these characters' devastated emotional conditions. It's not meant to be canon in any way :) It's just a love letter to James Cameron's work, to these unforgettable characters and the amazing actors that brought them to life. Also, it's a bit of playing with every Aliens fan ultimate dream: "what if Newt was alive, where would the story go?". It's kinda a "what if" scenario, although a very vague one. ;) In the end, it's just a love letter. Nothing more. We had little budget and wanted somehow to show our love for the franchise. Thanks for watching! :D

[@mischuwischu4305]

You did great and should be proud of you. Greetings and respect from Germany.

[@largol33t1]

I can't believe you did this on a budget that small. It looks like it cost $5,000 to make! I loved every minute of this. Maybe you should call James Cameron and ask if he is interested in making a story about Newt.

hi largol33t1. Thanks! When you live in a relatively small town in Brazil where nothing interesting ever happens, if you show up to a group of actors saying "guys, let's shoot a fanfilm?", yeah, they'll be all very excited. Most will do it just for the sheer pleasure of being in a film. (also, it's good portfolio for all of us) The same goes for me I guess, I've worked behind the scenes (pre, production and post-production) for about a full year, and no payment. Sometimes, just being able to do what you love is amazing enough. Most of the gear used (specially pro Nikon lenses) I've already had, as I worked as a photographer back in the day. Also important to say, these locations were all free. No payment or permits were needed to use those locations. Having essentially no costs with crew, gear and locations, the overall costs were quite minimal in the end. That's how we did it so cheap ^_^ On one hand it was cheap to produce, but on the other hand, the real "costs" were tons and tons of hard work from everyone involved. You really gotta love what you're doing, to make it to the very end of the post production schedule. We're now post producing a new short film (not Aliens based this time), but production costs were a bit more serious this time. I've spent 25 k on this new project, and even 25 k is barelly a scratch compared to pro cinema. Thanks for watching and the super kind comments :D Thanks a lot!

[@largol33t1]

Márcio Napoli It took me a while to get back so I could read the reply Thanks for the information. It was fascinating to read.

[@RenanDavidSoriaAhumada]

How could some one not like this? they kill the girl in the 3rd movie because theyre setting it in a rapist colony and they just want to avoid having a little girl wandering around they just need to eject "compromised pods" on the new infection at place in that way you could get your 3rd movie yet allowing this to happens

[@fluezcomli]

Excellent work!!! I'll be waiting for the next part of your movie!!!

Congratulations to Brazil for this short movie. Well done! Muito obrigado!

Hi Knut, thank you so much! It's kinda unfortunate that we've alredy shot another much deeper, much improved (on all accounts) short but there simply isn't enough time to finish post production, and has been so since principal photography wrapped up in 2016. It's a short following the same basic idea: an amazing cast (most of them from this Aliens short film), superb acting, VFX, a dramatic story line and a story of bravery, companionship, courage, autruism and rise to a larger than life challenge. Hopefully one day it will be finished, hopefully :D in the meantime, thank you so much for supporting, watching and commenting :) Obrigado !!!

[@jordana4910]

Excellent job! Perfect casting on Newt! Love the atmosphere you created. Fits right in with the Alien universe.

Hi Jordan! Thanks !!! :D And yeah, I 100% agree, Luiza Greca's performance as Newt was simply superb. I feel trully blessed to have such a talented young actress in our cast. I wish, with all my heart, that she grabs some opportunity in the American industry, Hollywood or indie. She's THAT talented :) Thanks a lot again, Jordan!

[@jordana4910]

Márcio Napoli Oh, I'd love to see her get the opportunity to work in Hollywood. Has Luzia been in any other films or short films?

Jordan A Hi Jordan! hehe It seems she isn't in any other films, but I trully wish this fanfilm opens her way up to star in many other productions. She's a very talented actress. Wish her the very best !

Márcio Napoli This is a terrific movie short! Very well written, produced, and directed!

Michael Dortman Hi Michael! Really glad you liked it :) Such kind words really mean a lot to us, to keep moving forward to the next project without ever earning a penny back. (how I wish Kickstarter were a reality here in Brazil too... ;D ) Thanks a lot, Michael! In case you wanna follow our projects, let's keep in touch. We're about to start shooting a new short film, that will take everything that worked on Aliens and will now elevate these to the next level (a bit more budget, more experience, extra care, extra love). It will be based on the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender. Lol yeah, we'll dare enter those disturbed waters :) It's a crazy plan, but I'm sure it will work. There's tons of love being sqeezed into it. Thanks once again, Michael. Have a nice week :)

[@AlexHevari]

What a film! No words... just a marvel! Minimall staff limited resourses.. but still much greater and more emotional and...and...than many movies with huge budgets and big stars in the casts. Mr. Ridley Scott must see this and expand this story onto the feature film. Together with you. Marcio and others of course)

Hi everyione! We've just published a new video: "The Mummy - Marcio Napoli". Just follow the link: The Mummy - part 1: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpK6kqmnn9GLkMU . Would love to have your feedback there. It's a mix between fashion photography and movies, as it's basically shot in a movie set we've built.

[@pcbrown212]

Nicely done! I hope this very beautiful film brought you attention and opportunity.

[@beeman2075]

James Cameron's Aliens has been one of my favourite science fiction/horror films since first watching it in 1988. For your description of the production budget being less than $1,000 used for this, this was a beautifully shot short film and tribute to Aliens. I always wanted to see Newt's perspective as an adult - thank you for providing this.

[@neshiah4747]

Fabi brigadão pelo carinho! É inacreditável que 10 anos depois esse curtinha segue recebendo tanto carinho e visualizações, fico super feliz! Por muito tempo tivemos que parar com a produção de curtas (que é apenas um hobby na verdade), mas Graças a Deus, estamos conseguindo retomar os projetos. Já existe um novo curta em edição, o qual ficou 8 anos em desenvolvimento (desde a pré-produção até a pós, um total de 8 anos). Esperamos que a iniciativa continue, pois é um sonho que o Brasil tenha filmes nesse estilo, com elementos de fantasia, ficção, efeitos especiais e grandes atuações. Fabi, se puder compartilhe o curta para mais pessoas, vamos levar essa voz ao máximo possível de pessoas. Mais uma vez, muito obrigado pelo enorme carinho!

[@DrownedInExile]

Wow. Not a single alien, but this really captures the sombre atmosphere of the movie.

DrownedInExile Thanks a lot! Really thanks! :) As we had no budget to try anything action oriented, we decided the best way to go would be to keep things simple, and play with the characters' devastated emotional conditions. The beauty of the Alien franchise is that it's much deeper on drama, it's much more 3d on human emotions, than many other sci-fi franchises. We tried to capture at least a little bit of that. DrownedInExile, thanks a lot for your kind words!

[@georgepatrick2406]

The music really helps sell the tone and the somber emotional palette. My compliments to Elliot Goldenthal. He reminds me of Howard Shore.

[@LuxBellator92]

Wow, this was an extraordinary fan film! I can't believe I have never seen this before. Amazing direction; beautifully shot with impressive visual FX; great screenplay with powerful emotional moments (especially where Newt hears her mother's final message to her); and an impressive cast. I am honestly stunned at the quality of this piece! Wonderful work. A salute to Marcio Napoli, Luiza Greca (who was phenomenal in the role of Newt), Sergio Barreto, and everyone else involved. From the mouth of someone who has been a long-time fan of Aliens since he was a child, I love this fan film!

+Lux Bellator Hi Lux, thanks a lot, my friend! The kindest comments such as yours is what makes us go foward and keep going strong, driving us through the obstacles that inevitably happens along amateur productions. On behalf of our team, from all our hearts, thank you! About Luiza, she's amazing, isn't she? :D I truly wish she could have opportunities overseas, as I believe she could be a movie star having the right connections. I wish her all the luck, and really do hope a movie producer is watching this short film, so she's able to find her way into Hollywood. I hope the best for the entire cast, everyone made an amazing job. Lux, since you liked this short film, we're already doing another one :D (but it won't be Aliens based this time). The next project will be inspired by the Last Airbender franchise, which I'm also a huge fan. We hope to grab at least a tiny bit of the cartoon's emotional core, and hope it'll work at an emotional level as much as Aliens did. It will explore themes like responsability, altruism, loss, courage, honor, friendship and love. We're just about to enter shooting phase, so it's still a long road before it's finished. We expect at least 3 months shooting principal photography, and another 6 to 8 months on post-production. It's a long road ahead... lol :) But as soon as it's finished, I'll PM you :D Once again, our deepest gratitude, Lux. Thanks a lot :D

[@LuxBellator92]

Márcio Napoli Oh, thank you for such an in depth reply, Marcio! You are most welcome though, friend. It's most deserving. I'm glad my words could mean so much :) And yes, Luiza is amazing! Her performance blew me away. I hope she finds success overseas also. She deserves it. Liking the sound of your next project! I must admit, this may sound like blasphemy, but I haven't yet had a chance to see that show in its entirety, but I most certainly plan to! Looks like a great series, and I like the sound of the direction you're taking. Will any of the cast from this Aliens short be featured in that movie as well? And yes, of course. That's completely understandable. But yes, please do! I'll be waiting on the other end once it's finished :) Pleasure was all mine, Marcio. And please, call me Jon. Take care, :)

Hi Greg, wow! I had to sign in just to reply you back. Thanks a lot, my friend, you can't possibly imagine how happy and rewarded with feel after hearing such kind words. It just gives us fuel to keep moving forward. Thanks a lot, really! Right now, we're post-producing another short film we've shot earlier this year (this time it won't be based on the Aliens franchise). It will take the best parts of this Aliens short movie (the emotional core and great cast) and mix into an even bigger, Lord of the Ring-like, emotional journey. It will take some time to finish the post-production phase, but as soon as it's done, I'll gladly email you to present this new short film. Thanks a lot for watching, and for the kindest words. :)

[@Mycogso]

+Márcio Napoli Please do, I really loved this. It really shows you guys put alot of care into something and is a shining example that you don't have to have an amazing budget to make something look so amazing. Please do email me.

Hi Greg! Once again, thanks a ton for your kindness! I even saw you replying another commenter just a few posts below, defending our little movie regarding changes in the official storyline. Thanks a ton!! :) haha yeah!, there was a lot of passion on this Aliens project, but I'm proud to say that everything we did on this Aliens fanfilm won't compare to what we're doing on our next project. This next short film (which is based on the Avatar: The Last Airbender franchise - yeah, we'll dare enter those waters! haha) ran for a year and a half in continuous pre-production phase (crafting the story, then screenplay, storyboard, casting, building characters, costumes, props, etc). Those were about 18 months of real hard work, wihout earning a single penny xD. I've paid for all the production costs, which ended up in about 25 grand, which is a lot considering there's no external funding. I just believe when you dream of something, go on full 300% mode, never go something in between. Then, earlier this year, we've spent 3 months shooting with our cast (everyone, me included, working for free). Well, free is not the best word to describe it. We did it for love. And now, this short film is going through a long post-production journey, which will probably go on for the next 12 months, with endless nights awake in front of the pc, working on the visual effects. This entire process far exceeds what we did on Aliens, I'm really proud to say :) It will take some time to show you the finished project, but I'll gladly email you when the time comes. =D Thanks a lot once again, my friend. Greetings from Brazil !

Hey Jason, thank you so much!

Esse é uma fantasia/drama estilo uma mistura de Senhor dos Anéis com o Último Samurai. E tem outro sci-fi - ainda na forma de roteiro - que segue uma linha parecida com esse curtinha do Aliens, com bastante drama, temas de coragem, força e altruísmo, que se Deus Quiser, vamos colocar em produção ano que vem. Obrigado pela força e pelo carinho! 😄

Just stumbled across this gem. What you people did with a month's welfare in Finland far surpasses a plethora of full length movies in terms of dialogue, acting, editing, direction, visuals and CGI, dramatic beats and use of score albeit not original but the use was to a perfect effect. I applaud you. All of you.

Hi Tarva, I'm gobsmacked at your comment! :D It warms my heart to a point I can't describe in words, and I can say that on behalf of all the casting. I don't have enough words to thank you! From all my heart, I seriously appreciate it. Although we haven't released yet, we have another short already shot (in 2016, still waiting for post production to be completed) based on a very popular and beloved franchise (the Last Airbender's Avatar), and I have a screenplay written for an original sci-fi short that will borrow the same dramatic themes from the Aliens franchise, a story about bravery, compassion, altruism, friendship when two people are facing a life ending situation in a sci-fi battle. Both of these new films are still being made under amateur, hobbyist conditions, but since 2014 I've discovered a few techniques that will allow these shorts to really look like massive budget productions, even though they're still low budget amateur films. It's a lot of hard work, but when we receive comments like yours, it all becomes effortless, we feel all this time and personal money invested has paid off. From all my heart, thank you. Lovely words like yours is what keep pushing us forward through the challenges of amateur filmmaking.

@ can't wait for your new stuff!

[@QCJSiteB]

Wow. Just starting and I'm already blown away!!!

[@QCJSiteB]

Just finished. Amazing work my friend. You should be proud!

@@QCJSiteB thank you so much, Cobra, kind words like that really push us through the exaustion barrier when we're on new projects :D Really thanks! Subscribed to your channel I am (in Yoda's accent haha)

[@QCJSiteB]

@ Of course! And yeah, I hear you, it can be aggravating, but it's worth it all to get real viewers who care, right? :)

[@carlosloiola]

Parabéns! Eis uma coisa que gostaria de saber fazer, um curta ou mesmo um filme, até pq já fui figurante. Parabéns e sucesso

[@number1mouse]

That was pretty good! Nicely done

[@thompsonpatrick79]

I thoroughly enjoyed this short!! The film quality was absolutely superb! And the use of Alien 3 soundtrack was perfect! It conveys so much loss and despair but so beautiful. I really liked what you did with the story, it really could be a great tv show in the fashion you have made. Great job!

patrick thompson Hi Patrick! I'm really glad you liked so much, thanks my friend! :) We're trying to enter shooting phase of a new short film, based on the Avatar world (The Last Airbender Avatar, not the Jim's Cameron one lol). The idea is to fully explore themes of hope, loss, pain and despair once again, themes that are deeply related to the human nature itself, and that define us as human beings. We're still trying to enter the shooting phase, because as amateur films are so hard to produce, it takes a lot of lucky to make all things fit into place. But we're doing our best, hopefully it will happen!Patrick, thanks again for the kind words. :) Have a nice week!

[@thompsonpatrick79]

Good luck with that! And you're welcome!

[@cale77]

simply awesome!!! great job, perfect cast, striking beautiful photography...

[@BoldenFMA]

That was awesome. Very somber. I love the Eliott Goldenthal Alien3 score as well. You must be a huge fan lol

[@Titanscreaming]

That was fucking beautiful! Dont read for spoilers! ----> Bishop dropping that tear after playing the message... And the words of the message, beautiful.

[@agencianovars]

Lindo! São os primeiros passos para super produções brasileiras! Parabéns!

Olá! Torcemos muito para isso também! Esperamos que este filme, assim como muitas outras produções nacionais que surgem, façam o cinema brasileiro acordar, e se tornar finalmente um cinema de sonhos e entretenimento como Hollywood faz.

[@hilaryc3203]

Extremely well done on all counts.

[@OpenMawProductions]

Very well performed, directed, and edited. You played to the strengths you had and avoided the typical pitfalls of many independent productions of this sort. Well done. My only criticism, which was leveled at the film by others, is the slight overuse of score. I think a few more moments letting the performers penetrate through in silence would have suited the project for the better. Nevertheless, well done. I salute all of you for your hard work and obvious love of the Alien series.

Hi OpenMawProductions, I guess you guys are spot on, at the end of the day, I agree entirely. I've watched this video countless times by now, and I gotta say I agree with you. As an inexperienced amateur filmmaker, I guess I felt too scared to let the emotions breathe, and carry the weight of the scene just by the actors performances and the text itself, without any soundtrack behind. It's somewhat a lack of confidence, we could say :) Gotta take notes on that for a next project! Thanks again for watching, OpenMawProductions!

[@OpenMawProductions]

Márcio Napoli I look forward to seeing what you do next!

[@josephalvarez6298]

This short film is very well done! Better then Alien covenant. Is good to c Newt in a short film and to c she is a strong person like Ripley and Hicks !

[@luizagreca6452]

Hi everyone! I wanted to thank you guys for all the support! As I said several times, every word, no matter how small, has a lot of meaning for us, mainly, we live by it! Our team worked very hard for a beautiful result. We are very happy with the disclosures, keep goinggg! Thanks! You guys are amazing

[@KinoNowejPrzygody]

Hey there Newt. We mostly come at night. Mostly. But seriously. I really do appreciate your interpretation of that character.

[@luizagreca6452]

New Adventure Cinema Thank you so much!!

New Adventure Cinema haha =D That joke never gets old! xD

[@jordana4910]

Márcio Napoli Luiza Greca Any chance you will do a follow up to this short?

Jordan A Luiza Greca New Adventure Cinema Hi Jordan! I believe we're not following up that specific project on the Aliens universe... It's been one h#ll of a ride :D, which I'm extremelly glad to be part of, but maybe it's time to try something new. :) We've got tons of other projects, mostly for dramatic stories with a mix of sci fi, waiting for a chance to see the light of day. But living here in Brazil, it's pretty much a solid 100% certain that nothing will ever happen, on a comercial way I mean, so every project is made from our own pockets, and must be very carefully chosen. I've been thinking of starting a project on Kickstarter to gather funds, but then again, the funds cannot be transfered to a Brazilian account, as I've read on their page. :( So that idea pretty much died on birth :( haha Any chance you're willing to be our agent in the US? ;D Have a nice week, Jordan

[@dawsonproductions7467]

Awesome, dude!... or should I say, mui bueno.

[@XenomorphLV426]

Elliot Goldenthal's score makes this short film 10x better.

[@r1ch1o24]

This is fantastic. Great job . Please continue your work

[@davemurray4858]

Really enjoyed that. Was well made and acted. Thank you.

[@jomainejoesaldana2839]

Absolutely captivating! Job well done!

[@jasoncropley5334]

I love the minimalism of the narrative; the visuals are captivating; this is a very emotionally-driven piece. Great work!

Hey Jason, sorry for the super late reply. I'm trying to catch up, since (sort of) rebooting my YT channel a couple of years ago. Thank you so much! That was in fact our main goal here. It's not at all about visual FX, or the alien creature itself. I was far, far more interested in creating something emotionally-driven as you brilliantly put, something that could explore the pain and emotional devastation these characters were going through. Thank you for watching and commenting :) Well, if you wanna take a look, here's a trailer for our latest short film, which was entirely shot in 2016 but editing was never completed. I'm posting the trailer on my channel to see if we can find support, in order to finish this latest short. Here's a link for the trailer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmGUZ3l7edaBqpo as was the case with this Aliens short, it's very emotionally driven as well. Jason, thank you so much for stopping by and commenting, I appreciate it a lot :)

[@kennywedlake2981]

Great alien fan made masterpiece,lovely girl actress too.would love to see her make it In actual aliens franchise in Hollywood

Hi, thank you for your kind comments. I'm very excited to announce we're finally being able to continue post-production on a follow up short film (not Aliens related this time, but equally as passionate, and growing on the same things Aliens did right). Totally agree, Luiza Greca (Newt) is indeed a lost diamond. It's a shame life gets in the way, and she had to follow a medical career (good for her!). In an ideal world, she should be starring Hollywood movies, she has an energy and talent that reminds me o J Lawrence.

[@eliasromeo4093]

excelente, brother! me senti transportado para o universo "aliens".

[@shadow2010shadow2010]

atmosphere was incredible

Sorry for taking so long to reply, thank you so much! I'm really glad so many people liked it :) Thanks for watching and commenting :)

[@fredericom.semedo1626]

Fabuloso ! Meus parabéns a todos que participaram! Se ao menos hoje em dia este franchising fosse assim tão bom! A Fox devia de prestar atenção a este trabalho!

[@greyd.99xsome]

Incredible! As HUGE Aliens Fan i can only say this is something outright special! Way better than the actual movies like Prometheus or Covenant.

[@marcosjos83]

Carai muito foda! Parabéns aos atores, diretor, criador e equipe técnica. Ficou bem crível e bonito.

[@danielqmul]

Thank you

[@fdesiqueira]

Eles realmente deveriam ter pensado em um filme que contasse o que houve na colonia. O filme ficou muito legal. Parabéns.

[@joseagnaldodesantanasantan2812]

Existe sim uma versão legendada estendida do filme Allen 2 o resgate que conta sobre o cotidiano da colônia e o que aconteceu realmente é muito legal!

[@johncarter9067]

absolutely brilliant piece of film keep making films

[@Gattberserk]

Year 2211, she is a clone. Bishop could be the name of any android after Bishop in Aliens. Different model but same name? It could still fit into the long timeline between Alien 3 and Alien Resurrection!

[@TheKevphil]

Beautifully shot! Great CGI work, too.

[@DonB.-Mulefivefive]

This is really well done and well played out. Super and really excellent . You did really great. Keep at it. !!!! 10 stars!!!

[@edsmith4995]

Awesome!

[@JohnCampos062298]

Permit me to be the latest in offering my congratulations and deepest thanks for such a creative and fulfilling endeavor! As a great fan of the films, this film has touched me as strongly as the moments that represent and demonstrate the humanity and emotion of the story. May great fortune attend your endeavors!

[@astrophotonics9470]

Should hand the franchise over to these guys, Nice work.......

[@dumoulin11]

So professionally done, my god what a polished piece of work. Congratulations to all the cast and crew. A special brava to the cinematographer, superb work!

Hey dumoulin11, sorry for the super late reply, my great sir! I've been rebooting my channel for the past couple of years, so I'm trying to catch up with all comments here, there's a lot to catch up :) I feel extra pleased with your comment because I loved doing this short's cinematography, being a photographer myself. haha I'm really glad you liked it :) Everyone did an AMAZING job, these were the days. Miss that so much, since life has become so different in the past years... Well, here's a trailer for our latest short film, which was entirely shot in 2016 but editing was never completed. I'm posting the trailer on my channel to see if we can find support, in order to finish this latest short. Here's a trailer for it if you wanna take a look: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmGUZ3l7edaBqpo as was the case for this Aliens short, it's very emotionally driven, very heavy on the drama. Thanks for stopping by and commenting, I appreciate it a lot :)
