wow ..Bravo! a true prequel ...THIS is more like what most fans were expecting when Prometheus was going forward ...with maybe some prolouge stuff dealing with derelict ship and the ORIGINAL Space Jockey ..NOT Ridley's re booted "ancient astronaut " stuff ...which the original ALIEN (or the other films) never even hinted at once
Absolutely STUNNING STUNNING work!!! And I must say your upscaling this to 4k produced a really impressive sharpness and rendering quality on my big monitor :) 😉
Loved it, from the very first second to the last one. You did an amazing job not only in terms of the suspense and plot but also with the graphics. On top of that, the way you tie "The message" to 1979 "Alien" was impressive. As far as I'm concerned, your movie is now part of the lore. Kudos from Brazil!
Simply brilliant! Probably the best iClone production I've ever seen, if not the best. Even beyond that, it's probably every bit as good as the original Alien movie. It captures the mood of the original like no other. I have no words (other than these) - well done!!!
It is unbelievable the amount of detail you have put into this movie. Your Alien is even better than that in the game Alien isolation. I've been a massive fan of Alien since going to watch it underage at just 16, when it scared the sh1t out of me. And this does the movie proud. Well done, all involved
Thanks for the short movie. Loved how heavily influenced by Alien and Alien Isolation it was. The shot at 22:51 was amazing, thought it was a crawl space door opening. The way you have her read books to familiarize herself with parts of the ship she hadn’t been, was not only great character development but it created tension. Many thoughtful and smart details.
Fantastic. This was incredible. Really captured the essence of the original movie. The sound design and lighting were spot on and you honestly got me with a few of those jump scares. And as a 53 year old who saw Alien in the theatre with me dad back in 79 that's impressive. Kudos to you sir. I tip my hat to your impressive skills. Keep up the good work.
Naaa, guys. I am Fan since I was twelve years old, which means by now thirty years and in my opinion Alvarez did a great job as co-writer and director of Romulus! By bringing back the old designs, the evil spirit of wey-yu and the experiments, the colony, the story and its place in the timeline, even the weyland-yutani logo everywhere like in Aliens and Alien3 was something I‘ve ever missed in other movies. The Look of Space was so epic. Even the black pathogene goo from Prometheus was included, which formed at least the offspring, that even had similarities with the engineers. For me it was like an old Dark Horse comic has come alive, projected on the big screen! Honestly it was the Alien Movie I wanted to see in 1998! Man, look at the facehugger-action, guys😍🥰!!! Now on your work, sorry 😅! Your shortfilm was almost Perfect and Full of detailed love for the franchise which you can See, hear and almost feel!!! A Little Masterpiece which is way too underrated here on RUclips!!! I‘d like to see millions of clicks! Great work, I love it!!!👍🤘😎🤘
@@grantreborn maybe, pal! But you see, together with some good shit and this nice Short Film, it turned me back into a twelve year old child with all the fresh enthusiasm, sorry…😅 Doesn‘t Happen that often with over fourty…😅😣
That short film was absolutely amazing. I would love to see a series of these. Classic dark sci-fi horror. I really liked that it had grit too. Everything wasn't perfect and it seemed more real. Especially because it's animated. It would be cool to see or even just hear more of an ensemble cast. But, I'm sure an incredible amount of work went into this alone. Great job. Make more of these.
Thank you. I just discovered this little gem. I was looking at Alien related content and stumbled on this. TBH I am not a fan of this type of video game-like animation but the story kept me interested. Thank you for making this and sharing. It’s actually better than most of the garbage the studios have produced post Aliens.
This stuck to canon very well indeed, in particular observing the 'last survivor' rule with the Alien. It didn't attack her when it could have- excellent accuracy.
This is by far the best Alien fan work I have seen. The character has life to it, the lighting and camera work is also great. These are the main points that set it apart from others I have seen. Great short story! Potential spoiler: You had me fooled twice thinking she was impregnated ;-)
Love the sounds from the movie spot on and the atmosphere spot on and the graphics are like ps3 but still the alien looks great it was very creepy keep it up I want more 😮
Outstanding!! Hoping someone out there see's your vision and backs you to create something further spectacular to your liking! Well done really made my day thankyou! 🇦🇺
Wow...just wow! I m fairly impressed what you ve done here. I m still moved by the beautiful execution on so many levels. The animations were at a point of me totally fine watching a 2h movie of it (except Alien running animation)...focusing much on facial animation despite beeing hard to produce was absolutely the right move...kudos to that! The tonemapping was especially well put together...it captured the overall grim theme of the story and interrior surroundings of the ship quite nicely. Also the pacing of the story was spot on, I never felt bored and appreciated any minute of it. Thanks so much for making this!
I just blunder up on stuff like this and I was wondering why we don't get more stuff like this from the big guys? This is better than the actual franchise cannononical official domain offerings. This is a pretty good little movie!
It was terrifiying, exactly as an Alien movie should be. I was trembling all the 40 minutes. Pure horror !! I really appreciate your hard work. Respect !! 😎
I liked it a lot. Exiting plot kept me on edge from start to the end. As an old Alien fan, i loved all the good work put into this story. The Nostromo class ship was a welcoming touch. I could feel the fear and confusion Emily felt, waking up to a empty ship, and then discovering the ship is still on LV426 with the Alien creature on board. Thanks a lot for making this movie. It's a very good product 🫶
very well done to me. It did have issues but those issues were probably unavoidable. I only have knowlege of character creator and never used iclone but it does make want to get into iclone watching this.
I jumped at the expected jump scare. Thoroughly enjoyed the film. I don't get the cassette player. I think you put that in for kitsch. I loved you version of the xenomorph. Look out Alien Romulus
It was very well executed and intense! I really enjoyed as other viewers did! That's what people seek in a film like that: 😊 keeping them engaged! Is OK to ask what's with the "chair scene"? PS. Lighting and camera work were superb and on a A+ level!
In an older version of the movie, there is a scene where Emily knocks down the alien with a chair. It was a stupid scene, but back then I didn't realized that. After countless remarks on that, I decided to edit this scene out of the movie for this 4K version ...
Incredible! Near perfect on all levels. My one quibble is with the script. What was the point of Emily's experience? She didn't save her crew. She didn't save herself (Cancer will get her if starvation won't). And she didn't save the crew of the Nostromo.
I used my video editing program (AVID Media Composer) to upscale the movie from 2K to 4K. I just rendered the original master file with the new resolution. Most 4K discs are done this way (sadly). As for tutorials, there are some videos where I show my animation workflow for this project. ruclips.net/video/jcnz52Q1pyI/видео.html ruclips.net/video/w49araaH5ho/видео.html ruclips.net/video/ex-z1TyGnrQ/видео.html
I wish just once someone would come up with an original idea for these films instead of copying everything. The female as the hero was supposed to be a one off thing, that's what made it interesting.
Why did you cut out that one specific epic scene "der Stuhl der Zerstörung"? 😊 Jokes aside. From what I can tell it's one of the best movies I've seen made inside Iclone (or in this case tranfered to UE4). Let's see how your next project will come out. Best regards Labrats
really love your film, if u had to do it all over again would you use motion capture?, also im surprised you didnt take it to another software to do the final render but It still looks great out of Iclone
Perfect!! Almost Epic!!! and i say almost because i have an Objection! 1st why in the first place Alien didnt kill Waters? seconly when she hit Alien with the chair..she did hurt Alien more than when she shot it??? and at last why Alien still chase her if at the forst place didnt want to kill her?????
Hey, I couldn't find your email - I was wondering if you'd give me permission to show Alien - The Message in its entirety on my channel? And use footage from your film in one of my short videos?
As far as I'm concerned, this is still the high-water mark for epic, cinematic iClone videos even after two years. 😀👏 And this version is even better.
@@labrats3d woah, is this project fully done, animated and rendered in iclone?
This is better then every movie that came after Aliens in the franchise! A flat out masterpiece!!!!
Thanx a lot ...
That had me on the edge of my seat till the end.

Romulus wishes it was this good.
Well done, you can be very proud of this.
Thanx.
After watching Romulus, I've been down the rabbit hole. So glad I got led here. Great video. Thank you!
Funt Fact...this short film was better than Alien Romulus. Nice work
Thanx. I watched "Alien Romulus" last night. The first 30 minutes were fine. After that, the movie got really boring. Very disappointing ...

Superb storytelling and smooth animated portrayal of the Alien franchise.Bravo!😊
This gives me Alien isolation vibes I love it 😭💖
Thank you so much for this film and the effort you put in to it ❤

Also, a shout out to Alien Isolation for the impact it had on this franchise.
It's a crime how few upvotes this excellent fan project has. A dirty, rotten, crime.

This is exceptionally well made - thank you!! 👍👍💯
cannot believe how much effort has been put into this. Great job!🎉
Thx for linking me to this version, (minus the chair)now no further complaints. Good job.😁😁👍👌
Very good animations, really liked it 🔥👍

There is a sequel.

Outstanding!! Best I've seen in this group.
Fantastic to have those two physical confrontations with the xenomorph!
Fantastic work. 👏👏👏
I could watch these all day
very well done to me. It did have issues but those issues were probably unavoidable. I only have knowlege of character creator and never used iclone but it does make want to get into iclone watching this.

I thought I recognized the “Outland’ score at the beginning. Nice little goldsmith reference.
AMAZING, I loved it the first time, but this looks a lot better now even! Did you use virtual camera and a mocap suit or volume for this? So cool man!
Very interesting film. The amateur films have manytimes better scenarios than hollywood blockbuster movies.
Love the twist at the end 😁
fantastic! Please make another one!
Loved it!
Great job!

The Alien is very wary indeed to kill the 'last survivor'. They will only do that if absolutely necessary or directly threatened.
Weyland-Yutani archive video: Whatever happend to the "UCSS Horizon"?
way better than 3 & 4
I’d love to see a short film about the engineers and the juggernaut
Awesome
