  • ~ Ok so I finally got around to uploading the first two episode (they've been sitting on my hard drive for months). I realize that nothing about this video is excellent and many things are flawed, and while it's very amatuer I'm still proud of it. I hope everyone can enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it. ~
    This series follows the disturbed survivor of a series of plagues, wars, and disasters that made the desert the last refuge on the planet. People are forced to scour the merciless plains for what little food, supplies, and ammunition are left.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    I filmed the first two episodes of this series over two weeks with a couple of faithful actors, costumes, props, and one camera. I plan on uploading what I have so far so please stay tuned and subscribe if you want to see more!

    An Important note for viewers: this was made by my son when he was about 13. He conceived the story, the setting, the clothing, props...he did all the camera work, the music, and all post-production video editing and sound editing. This was his work, start to finish. I just put on the mask and did exactly what he told me...or got yelled at.

    I absolutely love this video! Not enough films show how everyday life would be for the average survivor. I'm excited to watch episode 2, and hopefully any other ones you have. I never thought I'd be so entertained by simple scavenging and travelling. I love the attention to detail, like how the survivor is experienced (resting, being careful, checking for traps/mines).

  • @MrCustomlegoguy

    There's only one critique I would have for this first episode, and it's something that's taught to every fresh off the bus recruit in boot camp.
    Never, ever, ever let your weapon get more than arm's distance from you!
    When he crawled under that flattened tank after the ammo can, he left his carbine and the rest of his gear outside.
    As soon as he had cleared enough space for him to get his knees underneath, turn around and pull the rest of your gear along with you. Especially if you're lone wolfing it.

      Post-apocalytic fiction tends to revolve around violence for the same reason children's fiction tends to revolve around the absence of adult rule. There are a few people who read/watch it cause they're interested in what it would be like to have to be completely self-reliant with few resources. But most people who watch it are attracted to the genre because of the absence of the rule of law and the opportunity to loot/rape/murder without legal penalty. Same reason those Purge films do so well at the box office. The whole idea has people enthralled.

      Yeah, I think that there are more fans of this type than we sometimes believe.
      I mean, there were a LOT of players of the first and second "Fallout" games before consoles took over..
      The main focus and enthralling part if thatgame was the whole, "exploring the wasteland, isolation etc" thing.
      There was always the chance of danger, otherwise it's just boring. But those games had a lot of fans and I can't help but think this type of thing appeals to Al those type fans.

      If anyone else, or another predator is around the gun can be a life saver. When things get that bad some critters and some people would consider it a shame to let 100 pounds of flesh just walk on by, not to mention any water, food, meds, ammo, that gun, usable shoes and socks he has.

      @jessebaker3099 9 лет назад

      But that's the thing. You're going to bump into lots of people, and you'll have to get along with most of them some way or another. The self-sufficient individual, family, or small band is an unlikely unit in a post-collapse world. People must have society whether they like it or not. Prepping is all to the good, but it's going to cover only a few weeks at most. Then it's all about company, as the largest organized groups will win. A fair bet is that that group will be an extant government.

    This is very close to what real survival would be about. But a couple of things...1: never, ever separate yourself from your gear or weapons. 2: The chances of finding 30 carbine ammo anywhere would probably be less than zero. 40 or so years ago when there was plenty of surplus stuff maybe, but not today.

      well, it's the first sign of a shit production because it screams unimaginative or inexperienced. no one is going to go out of their way (and survive) to raid the surplus store if the bombs fall even as an afterthought. the canisters in a gas mask last what... 72 hours? and if you've packed fatigues in your "inch" bag, they're not going to outlast the scourge... your clothes will fall off of you after a few months. here's a realistic post-apocalyptic story: you don't have a gun because you used all the bullets you could carry the first month, you've learned to eat anything (without heat), you're thin, weak, filthy, tired, hungry, cold, and just looking for water or a hole to crawl into and die so you don't have to worry about your next meal. you're not going to wander the wastes alone for any significant amount of time. any reason you'd have for why you'd survive will just prolong the inevitable without community.

    I defintily going to watch the second one. The movie had a great atmosphere. The costume was good and the location was just awesome. The story hadnt really much tension in it and wad kind of flat. But with the atmosphere I think the story worked. The cinematography was also good. Keep up the work.

    same as any other homeless guy except he wears clean clothes (somehow), the distant foghorns probably mean he's near a port or channel where there's a laundromat.

    A few problems with the audio, not much tension, and no action, but it's good. You should keep this up; this is pretty awesome.

    never going to run across 30 carbine ammo, except in a store, especially if you have a 30 carbine.
