Bioshock - Short Film

[@AnAbsurdExistence]

The fact that something like this could be made based simply on an audio diary and a couple environmental cues shows the brilliance of Bioshocks storytelling.

[@devinsupertramp]

Everything is done so solid on this! Incredible lighting, sound, storytelling, I approve of it all!

[@williammcphie1342]

Superb! As a huge Bioshock fan, I've always wanted to see something like this. The lighting, tone, sound, dialogue, acting, cinematography, set design was fantastic and literally brought the world of Bioshock to life. Amazing job, Thank you for this!

[@davidandrew1991]

Just started the game 5 days ago. I’m like 15 hours in. I can tell you right now, this is absolutely remarkable

[@gwarguraqueentrickstarcoat9110]

​@@realdoctortenenbaumI see you all over BioShock stuff Brigid, love to see it as a fellow Rapturian. Keep the lore/love alive 🙂

[@realdoctortenenbaum]

@@chadwurth Yes, the recent mod support for all three BioShock games and the recent (essential) fix for BioShock 2 Remastered sparked my interest in the series all over again and I think it's incredible how fans create even high quality content like this short film, despite not any official BioShock media being produced since about 10 years.

[@HooDFoX2021]

I’ve beaten Bioshock 57 times since it released in 2007, I could draw every room corner to corner and say every spoken line in order depending on where you go and when, I used to fantasize as a young teenager about living in Rapture and while playing, I would often brew a cup of coffee, dim the lights in my room, play a playlist of 1930’s-1940’s music on my iMac, and immerse myself in the game wholeheartedly. I’m now almost 30 and I’ve slowed down the amount I play it so I can still feel refreshed with it once or twice a year. I just want to say, I love you all for making this, it was awesome and a treat for a diehard fan like me. Honestly I think modern Filmmaking for the most part these days sucks ass, and everyone’s tastes have degraded too, and so I don’t know if I ever want a “video game movie” done again, not even Metal Gear Solid or BioShock, because if it was never done to perfection before(90’s Mortal Kombat excluded), it sure as hell couldn’t be now. Not only that, but video games are their medium for a reason. A play through could be 400 hours of immersion. Movies just can’t be games. But this was the closest I think it’s ever felt for me. Thanks.

[@timmi59]

Good comment. Dude. Bioshock saved my life.

[@MrLittlenicky123]

No one cares how many times you have beaten the game, and if you aren't bullshitting then you seriously need to get some therapy or help dude, that's not healthy, play a new game or something damn

[@FallingMiceREAL]

@@MrLittlenicky123 why do you need to be so negative it's a game he loves I love bioshock too I beat it about 40 times on the Xbox 360

[@SunlessSage]

@@MrLittlenicky123 The game released in 2007, which means they have been playing this game for roughly 15 years. So they beat the game a little less than 4 times a year on average. While it's a lot, it's not necessarily an unhealthy amount. After completing a game a couple times, playthroughs tend to go quite fast compared to the first ones.

[@michaelbush1374]

@@MrLittlenicky123 No one cares about your attitude or opinions. Especially when they're negative comments in a thread about Bioshock. Is it unhealthy for sport fans to spend 10 hours a week watching games and listening to talk shows about it even though most of them are unathletic?

[@frankfontaine8727]

Holy shit! This was phenomenal! It makes me so happy that people still love Bioshock enough to put something like this together! I really hope you guys continue to do more!

[@Moneymaker30005]

What alternate universe are you from?

[@adamk-paxlogan7330]

Fr😂

[@jackingtonfoxpickle4861]

Really outlines just how much of an evil man Fontaine was. Such a great twist that Sullivan did not kill Tommy H. This is so well done, thank you for making it. I knew exactly who you were talking about from memory. It was such a small piece of the rapture story too.

[@kieranadamson3224]

Yeah, it fits really well because this alteration doesn't actually mess with any storytelling. Fontaine would absolutely kill Timmy in such a horrific way meanwhile Sullivan tried his damnedest to have principles while still loyal to Ryan. Meanwhile Sullivan due to his principles would absolutely be haunted by the fact he seemingly regularly did stuff like this right from the beginning of Rapture. And eventually it got too much and he took himself out of the game.

[@jonwhite5186]

Absolutely phenomenal. The perfection with which the world of rapture has been brought from game into film here is just amazing. Beautifully captured. It really makes me wish for a film. 10/10.

[@jamesthomas9619]

Dude it's amazing how we only ever see that one room but the acting and the scenery itself just scream bioshock, why can't Hollywood do this? Lmao why is it every franchise they touch turns to shit meanwhile independent creators are just totally embarrassing them with stuff like this I'll never understand. Maybe it's just because Hollywood has lost the point of creating art, that at it's core the best art comes from passion and not from crowd sourcing and insane but altogether pointless visuals and ridiculously overdone action sequences

[@AngeryCrow]

Now, this is what I've been missing from Bioshock, that eerie and classic feeling of how the Rapture society works in the dark side. Man, I really like how Fontaine looks in this one, he almost somewhat looks like a Chinese man as like in the lore he used to disguise as one. Oh man, I would really love to see you guys taking on Cohen audio log as well, this is very amazing by the way.

[@silenthillsteve3437]

Yep Cohen ou Dr Steinman 😈

[@tylerkuykendall4323]

I don’t know how long this took to make, but I’d be ecstatic to see more. Even if the Netflix “BioShock” movie is made before a second video, I’d still want to see more of this.

[@begoodman1257]

This live-action short film is criminally underrated, it should have millions of views! Sometimes I don't get it how the algorithm works, so much work and love putting in this short sequence, but just a few saw it.

[@jamesthomas9619]

Dude Id say these guys have earned the right to make a full length movie, this was really engaging

[@PoeLemic]

Wow, what did I just watch? That was so incredible. I am AGHAST for words. I can't believe lighting, acting, directing, and cinematics. This the work of a TRIPLE-AAA Production Company.

[@derrasmerko3019]

Im 31 years old and first played bioshock when it came out, i played all the episodes and now when it is 15 years later im going to play remastered version all over again, im so excited to begin the journey once again, its the best game ever made in my opinion, LOVE IT

[@mathiascronqvist2029]

@@codycrogan3649 I assume that the reason why motion picture companies buy the rights to franchises that the fans love dearly, butcher it completely, so that they can say "Yeah we made this, now you gotta like it."

And when it fails, it is the fans who are to blame. If that makes sense.

[@ego6342]

I like the idea of it set in the same universe as the games. It's truly perfect. You nailed the atmosphere and architecture of Rapture. I know this is near fontaines fisheries so it has a different atmosphere to the rest of Rapture, but i never saw the rest of Rapture being an overly bright happy futuristic curvy city we see in Burial At Sea. I always imagined it always being a dark/noir even before the downfall. Rapture uses the same technology as the surface but slightly enhanced. Like the thinker. It's a giant computer that's made of 40s/50s technology. Makes it believable. I'm glad you stayed true to the setting. Using a real old style radio instead of some futuristic fancy radio that Burial At Sea would have done.
