[@quoise2342]

Yeah...

[@princessthyemis]

Oh my gosh as she moved down the tunnel and it went into the over shoulder third person perspective I actually started squealing with excitement!!!! That was SO COOL!! And the close camera movements when she dodged and fought with the brick at the end! The camera movement is insane and it totally captures the feeling of the game! You can tell a lot of work and love went into this! The only thing that I think could have made it better was continuing for a couple of seconds beyond the death screen. She would begin to start the final scenario but over again but then do one tiny thing totally different, and *then* it would cut the black. But even without that, since a lot of filming and editing undoubtedly went into this it's absolutely amazing as it is! Even the makeup and sound effects are incredible! This is easily the best Last of Us short film that I've ever seen!

[@AMPryce]

Yep at that point I put my controller down bc I was actively playing. Then the camera shifted and I had an OMG moment hahahaha

What the heck this is so accurate, even the way they started walking in the beginning, they hesitate (waiting for the player to control them) just a slight bit, and when she falls down the tunnel how the camera angle moves, small details make a huge difference

[@kylebangs8348]

When she lifted up the note then flipped it over to read the other side had me dying xD

I KNOW ME TOO!!!!!

[@abnerefraimrosavidal5643]

If HBO don't give us something with the same quality, I give their guys my money to made new episodes. Incredible.

[@HawaiianCrow]

HBO’s is obviously going to be a thousand times better with the budget.

[@alanequest7812]

This is exactly the filming camera direction that the HBO series needs to go with. You guys captured the style of the game and great job on the clicker outfits and attack scenes. Plus great filming set location by the way

[@crumblebee6728]

Oh yeah, I’m sure the masters behind Chernobyl and some of the greatest TV of all time are up in the KZbin comments taking notes...

[@brotherbrod]

absolutely not the style it needs to go with. just because it’s being adapted from a video game doesn’t mean it needs to replicate a video game. i’d much rather it have a lot of steady wide frame shots showing off the scenery and representing the feeling of isolation in an apocalypse and only opting for hand held in times it is absolutely needed to represent how stressful and chaotic a situation is. if anything i’d want someone like Emmanuel Lubezki behind the lens.

[@crumblebee6728]

@sd montanha I just meant they have a team of incredible professional film makers, and they’ll do just fine without ripping off some fan video off KZbin that uses all the sound fx from the game

[@Ihaveaboyfriend]

Wair what?! Is The last of us getting a series?

[@ryans413]

Makeup could be better but I’ll give it a pass this still was good

Points where I died: - Do we know a Neal? Puts note in pocket - Runs to save her friend, clicker comes out of freaking nowhere And everything in between. This was very good

[@zumabbar]
