Sci-Fi Fantasy Short Film "The Fallen" | DUST

[@MrCyrus1677]

This was one of the best experiences I've ever had making a film. Alex and Brad are top notch people and very skilled in their art. Not only am I proud to have worked with them on a few projects, but they are great friends as well. Great job to all involved!

[@jsalsman]

I wish we had just a touch more information about the alien's motivation. But it's spectacular overall.

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thanks man! wouldn't be the same with out you! :)

[@Apostlenetwork]

you did amazing job what a great short.

[@durasaxon5131]

Truly a masterpiece work of Art in Cinema and Folklore. •One-of-a-kind •Original •Memorable •Esteemable •Creative •Outrageous •Superlative •Sensational ✝️ *Congratulations* ✝️

[@TheRealSkeletor]

The effects were certainly the highlight of this film. Not so much the acting or costumes. 😂

[@unocson9359]

This was a fun short. Vikings vs Space Orks.

[@pseudonayme7717]

To any big movie studios out there, please give this man millions of dollars and full creative control of his own project. Sincerely, every sci-fi fan ever.

[@hmmjedi]

An excellent short movie brilliantly done by all involved... now we need a part 2 fighting against the Orcs...

[@robertbolding4182]

Bless us with your absence and go fight the Russians.

[@kimhodge984]

This was a great film!! Please create episode 2.... or a full length movie would be Awesome!

[@dr.penguin1231]

@@robertbolding4182 Forget the Russians...... go fight the muslims.

[@darda2449]

I wish to complement you on both concept and execution. The direction, and ability of the actors to suspend disbelief, kept the film moving fast and furious. The acting was what really finished selling the classic story line, with its nods to films such as Predator. The use of the natural setting worked well, and the design of the visitor and its costume was striking. "This is my realm!" What a berserker with true Viking spirit! Come though they may, as the ending shows, they would not meet a cowed populace. It was just a bad day to be an alien soldier, facing a badly misjudged, less technological, but perfectly capable foe.

[@desiderious1]

One of the best Dust channel short stories I have seen. Top notch directing, cinematography, music, special effects and acting. 👍👍

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you for the kind words! we all worked hard on this. Glad you enjoyed it !

[@ananominity]

OUTSTANDING!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 This was a rare moment when I didn't regret spending 20 minutes of my time watching a short film. Great story all-encompassing from beginning to end. A real gem, guys.

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you! Glad you were entertained :)

[@notyourbusiness7391]

Come on, most of it it's Bollywood level of big words and little thinking.

[@cinemartin3530]

Here you can clearly see the work of the masters. The action sequences, story, cinematography and visuals are even better than most big budget movies. I liked it very much. I would love to see a 3 hour movie if these guys made it.😃

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you very much for the comment, we tried to make it as enjoyable as possible for the budget of $4K ;)

[@pseudonayme7717]

@@ApparatusEffectsVFX$4k?! 😮That is astounding! Great work Sir, very much enjoyed it 👌👍👍

[@Mongooseonthaloose]

Fun fact! Vikings didn’t have horned helmets… learned this on a trip to Iceland, the Catholic Church portrayed them in such a way so they could be compared to the devil.😉

[@MichaelWinter-ss6lx]

The horns were used for drinking. Doesn't sound good to carry your drinking glass around on your head, does it ? 🚀🏴‍☠️🎸

[@notyourbusiness7391]

@@MichaelWinter-ss6lx But I did see some funny hats with aluminium beer containers on the hat ...

[@TheWatermoongoddess]

Thank you, I really appreciated this fact.😊

[@Accelle-kx8yh]

The only horns they use were the drink horns,in complete.Maybe a drinking horn lays beneath a helmet and the Catholic Church said here is the evidence the horn beneath a helmet and the horn was fallen off back in the fight and one meter away was another horn and then they got their two horns and began to start spreading rumors around,that some people still believe in nowadays.

[@ronjon7942]

It’s all in the merchandising.

[@LordKohaegan]

That was great! Loved the acting and action throughout, and the special effects were really good for a short film.

[@diracio]

Agreed! Was really good

[@thoughtstricken8579]

That was impressive for a short film. Wouldn’t you love to see this in the cinema. Favorite thing was that the alien armor was clearly well advanced but still had very plausible exploitable weak points. It was all just awesome.

[@hazzardgoat3113]

WOW! Well done, guys... this is certainly one of the best productions I've seen on Dust.... camera work, framing of shots, costumes, props and basic story telling all really well done! Hope to see more from you soon :)

[@hazzardgoat3113]

@@000aleph LOL... well, monsieur 0000aleph, I am indeed amused by the French accent in your writing.... thanks for the compliment, but M. le Chevre is not as young as it may seem😉 I've seen quite a few productions on Dust, and am not associated with this one.... Genuinely thought it commendable, hence my positive comments. Enjoy the cigar tho!

[@johnpayne7873]

BRAVO! Fear ye Orks! The King of the Mountain shall not let you pass!! Spellbinding cinema from set-up through pacing to finale.

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you for watching! glad you enjoyed it!!!

[@googleuser8211]

This is outstanding and surprised me MANY times... been watching sci-fi and fantasy flicks since I was a kid in the 70s and this STANDS OUT.

[@darrensmith6104]

Excellent! I swear - that was more entertaining than most full-length mega-million dollar movies!

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you for watching! glad you enjoyed it!!!

[@0neIntangible]

Now, there's something you don't see every day.

[@Lionel-my5sg]

So great movie congratulations folks !! We want others episodes !! That's so great folks ! Kepp going !!

[@mattstrandquist2148]

I'll be a hundred percent honest, I have never found a Dust video I didn't like... until now. Every possible detail about the Norse at that time period that could be gotten wrong, was gotten wrong. At no point in this short, did it ever make sense! I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

[@rheaverghoul]

Your right. If stuff in made up science fiction shorts on KZbin isn't 100% accurate to history it takes me right out of it. Haha great comment

[@timmotel5804]

Excellent. Truly award winning in every way. Thank You All for presenting such a fine film. DUST has always been Excellent. Best Regards

[@AcapulKero]

Amazing! We need now the full movie, where the invasion starts!

[@aarons7975]

Amazing. You could make an entire series or several seasons out of this, kind of like Stargate Atlantis. Seriously, you are sitting on solid gold here, please continue with it !

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you! yes this is a long term goal ! we have some amazing ideas for this world we've created in this short film! fingers crossed! It might happen!

[@theopolusthizzler7565]

Brilliant work guys! Absolutely captivating!

[@koreanKarate]

Absolutely no idea why this was in my recommended section but im glad it was. Great movie or project I loved it.

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it!

[@IrishEye]

Excellent movie, just needs a sequel, or two.

[@markwagoner3599]

Not to be critical myself, but the Vinings never wore horned helmets either.

[@галактический_чилл]

Predator + Assassin's Creed... I like it! 👍

[@wickedchef]

Very entertaining. Loved the special f/x. Nicely done ✔️

[@ttomkatt1]

That video was absolutely amazing! I would love to see more like that or see a longer version of that one.

[@markissboi3583]

brillant short movie better than alot posted recently this cud go to a major release if funded i'd watch it scifi fan

[@RelaxingMusic-gp3st]

SUPER DOPE! Well done mixing a Antiquity with Futuristic. I was diggin’ the short all the way through thanks to the supporting Music which is my style of creating Music for such visual works. 🤩✊🏽

[@andreachericone813]

Well done! You have created an enduring tale and it was accomplished in one third the time of a regular film. The cast was game (one can always tell when the players are enjoying their work), the script, to the point and you did a lot with very little at hand. Three toots on the harmonica for you folks! Thanks! More! More!

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you! glad you enjoyed it!

[@DraftySatyr]

Really excellent! Very high production values, with first class acting, specials effects, fight sequences and choreography. Entirely agree with other commentators praising what is one of the best Dust short stories I've seen.

[@MWTH37]

Very well done. Would like to see more. From a time when kings fought alongside their warriors and died a death of honor with them. The kings of today have no honor.

[@People-are-the-valley-of-Death]

Dust is Best.... they are superb!!!!

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Agree! yeas they are the best!

[@Short-Cipher]

Congratulations on your superb film. Late in the game, a medieval _Predator_ crossed my mind, but that was only fleeting and detracts from the original and imaginative kudos this film deserves. Very nicely executed. Props to all. Thank you for the thorough entertainment. 👏

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you! Glad you've enjoyed it!!!

This was a great short film..I even watched it 3 times and then started researching the origins of the Orks to see if this will be the new direction for the Lord Of The Ring Movies.

[@richdempsey7988]

Vikings meet Predator in the 7th C. Wonderful filming. Plot, dialogue, and special effects" " STUPID,STUPID,STUPID" . An incredible waste of talent with a surplus of blood and grunting.

[@herds22]

I lost myself about ten minutes in and had to check if i was still watching sci-fi. Well done!

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you!

[@stevenwnewell79]

It was well researched and written thoughtfully, albeit more violent than what usually attracts my interest. For the material scripted the acting was good. We don't know what caused the first battle and on incentive to be for a wining side in that part so then the starting action is much violence with no engagement of passions by the viewers to that starting warfare. You'd have to be fascinated with that kind of hand to hand combat to like this at the start, but with the plot beginning to move in the second scene it makes progress nicely. Every Writer has their own preferred approach, so I won't need comment there. The Directing was very good. I think that is what makes it work, is very good Directing. Tusen tok, kol a' mein! Godt film!

[@ApparatusEffectsVFX]

Thank you! Glad you've enjoyed it!!!

[@JonathanMobley]

Omfg this was amazing to watch. Wish it was longer. It was beautifully written and amazingly acted out. Great job guys

[@SynthoidSounds]

Incredibly well done, among the best productions ever presented by DUST. A lot of talent and production skill went into this. Of course, one has to wonder what came next, as more of the ETs were coming in . . . this could definitely be expanded upon to create a feature film. Congrats on a fine job, developing an interesting story combined with this level of production.
