Thanks for all the likes! . The online response for PLUG has been overwhelming, especially the Sci-fi scene, for whom this short film was written, directed and VFX'd with love. There is MUCH MORE to the PLUG universe than it is hinted here, and it seems that everything is lined up so we can keep telling our story! See you soon and thanks again so so much for the support in such a short time! {EDIT} Yep, it has been a long time, we have a script, but like many things in the movie industry, things don't happen despite putting tons of energy into something. The project has been a massive personal investment, but has been put on pause in order to allow for my life to happen and make money. I still have hopes to get back to it, but the road is long, and the overall success has been mild, hence not good enough to push it further at this time :/
Bring it on! Cant believe the negative comments; awesome film. AWESOME FILM!!! I LOVE it!! Id love to be part of this production, even just to say i ran out for sandwiches! Did I mention I totally enjoyed this? Better than R2D2 and an instantly likeable set of characters. I cant say enuff. Cant even type right. But its been a while since this came out. . .wheres your movie? You diddnt have the right guy getting the sandwiches. . .
+David Levy It is a shame that it is 2019 and no Plug II, Natalie Floyd is no longer acting. I enjoyed her brief but well-acted presence. You should flesh out the IMDB info. It is he forst time I have seen so little, even for a short.
Y'all gotta make the rest of this. Way too much potential to leave it hanging. Gotta wonder why the streaming outfits don't pick up more of these -- lot of film for not much budget. Seriously, we don't need zillion dollar budgets; we need stories.
sorry but while the premise is tempting the execution, specially the writing is medicore at best. if you produce a short story, make a short story. all you did is cutting of a long plot. thats not a short story. its ok to leave things open, its not ok to simply turn of the camera after a random scene. short stories always wrap them up just enough, they have some sort of conclusion. here nothing in the plot made sense or did had a meaning. you have to give it a meaning. all we have is some random action scenes we dont know the meaning behind it other than she was raised by machines that lied to her. and the plug is in some random dessert cave... thats not storytelling, sorry
+Carlos Hernan Jaramillo Solarte not at all. Star Wars, The Fifth Element, World of the Worlds, Terminator, Alien, Tron, Blade Runner...that's good work of conceptual art, in my opinion. Man of Steel and Superman, great movies, diferent in many aspects, but they aren't annoying
Geeking On Games you are aware that you are comparing large productions with a short film?, not belittle the work of these concep artists, maybe they do not work for Hollywood, but not mean they are not good.artist. you're some kind of concep artist?
I liked this a lot. Light on CG and heavy on real sets and interaction. Definitely reminded of older 70s and 80s flicks like Damnation Alley and Road Warrior. Hope to see more.
I'm rather surprised by the criticisms. I very much enjoyed this short and look forward to future episodes around this premise. I thought the production values were very high for a short broadcast on RUclips. I've seen horrible shorts get excessive praise even when it's Vfx and designs were amateurish at best. I hope to see more from this team.
waz wazz Another one of those morons who say. You can't comment because you cannot have an opinion if you didn't make a movie of your own. Movies/shorts are made for opinions you Idiot, just that they are hoping they are congratulatory ones so studios will pay them lots of money. The dumbest of the Dumb = Waz Wazz
Great concept. Wish there was a series. Too many great scifI concepts like this that deserve attention get lost or forgotten. This one deserves much attention.
This was such a sweet concept film. Love the musical score. The nuclear holocaust intro was epic! The human living amongst the robot "population" is very intriguing, and it ended on such a cliffhanger. Fantastic job! I would love to see more.
I too am sick of these being called "short films" which implies that it is a short but complete story. They would be better labeled "potential trailers", pilots, first chapters or something to indicate they are not complete.
I certainly agree with you guys, and yet, after giving this some thought, I think IF a film were labeled "not complete," I may tend to just skip it if my free time available to invest in watching it right then were a factor...which would be a shame, especially for such an excellent cliff hanging piece as I think this one is. ; )
you are totally right after a few ones i really got tired of all those "open endings" give the story a fucking ending!!! its ok once in a while but there are too many shorts with this kind of ending already...
Wow, I want a sequel to this short! This was fantastic and I'm not really much of a science fiction fan, but this caught my attention and David Levy deserves some HUGE props!
Just discovered these shorts and P.L.U.G. is the best one I've seen so far. The premise of mech's taking care of a human until she finds out "the truth" is an intriguing idea that should be expanded on. Good production values here.
WOW ! .... this short could be a full movie, and better than most of the junk that Hollywood is putting out today. I would like to see what happens next. GOOD WORK.
About 95% of what is on the idiot-box, what I call TV is mental junk.. This beats everything on TV. Story line is exciting, dialogue is believable, special effects are superb and the acting is natural. it was a pleasure to watch... thanx!
I’m new to short movies, however this has better cgi and scripting than a lot of the Hollywood fluff and mock busters. It was engaging and easy to watch. Only issue was the odd ending but even that was well made just not clear enough what happened. It has Shades of both oblivion destiny thrown in, all in I would give this a thumbs up and say give it a watch.
I hope one day we get to see an expansion of the story. There is so much crap being churned out of Hollywood, that they seem to have run out of ideas altogether, bar a handful of producers and directors I especially love the fact that you didn't overdo it with CGI A good premise for a story, just would like to see more of said plot in a full length movie
I'm not understanding all of the bad criticism about this short film I understand that people have different viewpoints and what they want to see but this is actually a really really good short film one of the best sci-fi short films I've seen on RUclips
WOW. Damnit, this is just like the video games that are so kick a** and never make it to the major movie production. I would love to see this one go further. Damnit, a cliffhanger. Arrrghhh A short film should not be this much of a cliff hanger. Just like a short research paper, there should be an intro, a body, and an ending. I'll be waiting into eternity for the full version. Damnit.
Awesome! Wow.....great short film that "hooked" me within the first 12 seconds! Great storyline, writing, special effects, acting, editing, music selection that impacts the "mood" of this film. I'd love to see an extended motion picture, or series of short films, from this concept. Excellent!
Am I the only human on earth who imagines a bright future full of progress and glory? Everyone seems to think the world's going to shit, except for me. The world WILL go to shit if a shitty world is the only thing the masses can imagine. Lets think up some new inventions to deal with the potential causes of a shitty world, eh? ;) That being said, the short film was still good. It looked like Daft Punk and Mad Max had a baby and named it Destiny. ;)
+Levi Clays Because the chances of that are slimmer than us ending up screwed. There are a million ways for us to end up wiped out or in end up in an apocalyptic world with most of the world wiped out. Our main threat is ourselves. And it won't be from middle eastern countries if any. It will be from bombs dropped by western countries like America and Russia e.t.c.
PandaWTG This could be very true. Her acting isn't far off from a Sci-Fi channel actress, in my opinion (which isn't necessarily bad). But, I'll definitely admit I'm guilty of nit-picking every movie to shreds, so this may not have been an issue for many viewers. Science fiction is my favorite genre if it's done correctly, but this just comes down to personal preference of what a viewer wants. The overarching dread the beginning of this film presented was quite interesting, but I feel it devolved itself immediately with a character that seemed so generically "bubbly" if that makes sense. Maybe that was the purpose to juxtapose a character such as this in such a bleak setting, but with a mythos that is so dreadful I found it strange most human characters behaved as such. But, once again, I'm hard to please. And, for a [presumably] low budget and independent film, I couldn't have done better myself.
This short movie has the same problem as the majority of others. It is so hard to come up with great endings. They have so much promise...then disappoint near or at the end. Kudos for how far this one got, but still no cigar.
Personally I liked it alot and would watch the whole series easily. The plot and setting was definitely interesting and you could take it so many directions. Keep it up!
With indie productions there will always be a problem of prioritization of some elements above others, but this went a bit extreme. With only a montage+text intro, you can't expect people to care about the revelation of new information right off the bat. Which essentially became the case when most of this was fighting scenes. The dialog repeats itself, and is pretty much meaningless at times. The acting wasn't that convincing, though I suspect that's the result of too little focus on that aspect. I struggled to stay with the plot all the way through, but I did, as the visuals were great, and because I understand the ocean of problems that is indie filmmaking.
"No bad machine, just bad programming"
And this has already surpassed 90% of sci-fi right there
Most machines would be the pleasure model if the intent is a model of things to come. One android & a bedroom fits all. But we will be wet wired to increase the think power of our brain which will be more like the matrix. Plug & go.
There are no bad people just bad programming.

Loved the Mad Max meets Star Wars feel to the production design.
+D4Darious I thought it was more like Destiny meets Borderlands.
+andresisthename VR Troopers and Fallout get married and meets Transformers along with Mad Max in Borderlands

If you only know how much i want a sequel. This was a masterpiece indeed.
Forgot it was a short film on Y-tube and not a full film I was waiting to continue when the credits came.
I liked this a lot. Light on CG and heavy on real sets and interaction. Definitely reminded of older 70s and 80s flicks like Damnation Alley and Road Warrior. Hope to see more.
It's about time someone went Old School again ! AWESOME.......MORE !!!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE !!!!

No excuse for sloppy writing

you think this is sloppy? go see avatar...

The dumbest of the Dumb = Waz Wazz
LOL, now that is some dope shit right there.
Ah ahahaha.
I'm gonna be generous and say you are 17.
You better hope you are not older for your own sake.
This is probably the best short film of this type I've seen on youtube so far. Strong narrative, great costuming... Very nice!
Great concept. Wish there was a series. Too many great scifI concepts like this that deserve attention get lost or forgotten. This one deserves much attention.
12:21 "Your dumb, we're exposed, screw you both" XDDDDDD Best part omg lol
This is an example of good Sci-fi. It doesn't require any Hollywood garbage, just talent and enthusiasm.
This is good enough to be made into a full film has a good story behind it I would definatley pay money to see a full film of this one
***** Don't expect there to ever be, shorts like that are better than some over 100 million USA dollars movies.
Raximus3000 Oh I know, but one can hope
*****
That and that holywood idiots would mature.
Raximus3000 which wouldn't be a bad thing either, I mean if the hollywood idiots matured maybe we wouldnt get so many ruined remakes of good films
*****
Or learn what fair use for criticism is and that it has positive effects on their films.
This must become a full length movie or series !!! I was so upset when the credits started.
This was such a sweet concept film. Love the musical score. The nuclear holocaust intro was epic! The human living amongst the robot "population" is very intriguing, and it ended on such a cliffhanger. Fantastic job! I would love to see more.
I too am sick of these being called "short films" which implies that it is a short but complete story. They would be better labeled "potential trailers", pilots, first chapters or something to indicate they are not complete.
Actually it makes perfect sense as it is. Because film simply means motion picture.
rlwieneke this is a trailor/pilot, read the discription
I certainly agree with you guys, and yet, after giving this some thought, I think IF a film were labeled "not complete," I may tend to just skip it if my free time available to invest in watching it right then were a factor...which would be a shame, especially for such an excellent cliff hanging piece as I think this one is. ; )
you are totally right after a few ones i really got tired of all those "open endings" give the story a fucking ending!!! its ok once in a while but there are too many shorts with this kind of ending already...

Wow, I want a sequel to this short! This was fantastic and I'm not really much of a science fiction fan, but this caught my attention and David Levy deserves some HUGE props!
Why would robots build a robot bar? Is it futurama rules and they run on alcohol?
Robots need women so the bar is a place to met them but we know asexual is the way we are going. LGBT
It is not a robot bar, it's a charging station, kinda like a gas station with a coffee stand in it, and they run on Gatorade.
Everyone is just trying to get laid braaa....
Ethanol
So they can pretend there drunk and get some human pussy for what ever ,lol

P.L.U.G. is the best one I've seen so far. The premise of mech's taking care of a human until she finds out "the truth" is an intriguing idea that should be expanded on. Good production values here.

Better than anything I've seen on TV in years.
I know the point of a short film is to keep the audience guessing, but this and many others are really good, and worth of a series, or movie.
Watched this several times and it gets better each time.
The Costumes are awesome...the characters have got that Destiny (game) feel to it! Nice!!
dang this should be a series on television
You got me..right at 9:50..that gun was bad ass...such insane power...love it..
About 95% of what is on the idiot-box, what I call TV is mental junk..
This beats everything on TV.
Story line is exciting, dialogue is believable, special effects are superb and the acting is natural.
it was a pleasure to watch... thanx!
I cant stand how they all end but this one was the best so far.
I’m new to short movies, however this has better cgi and scripting than a lot of the Hollywood fluff and mock busters. It was engaging and easy to watch. Only issue was the odd ending but even that was well made just not clear enough what happened.
It has Shades of both oblivion destiny thrown in, all in I would give this a thumbs up and say give it a watch.
Wow! Amazing work, that was probably the best short sci fi I have seen in a long time. This should absolutely be feature length!
Definitely needed another hour or so. 👍
Right, watched the Sci Fi Short now I would like to watch the full feature version..
I hope one day we get to see an expansion of the story. There is so much crap being churned out of Hollywood, that they seem to have run out of ideas altogether, bar a handful of producers and directors I especially love the fact that you didn't overdo it with CGI A good premise for a story, just would like to see more of said plot in a full length movie
I just listened to CG Garage podcast where David Levy was guest, They shot this in 7 days and he did the VFX for 1year. awesome!
I love CG brothers they put out creative original CGI shorts that I enjoy throughly keep it up fellas
I liked it a lot. Love the sound effects a lot a lot. Main female character was huge. Hope to see more from all of you.
one of the best short Scifi films. I wish it was a full feature film
Man I love the concepts behind things like this and how rich the story is in such a short time
I enjoyed every second - very intense - all thumbs up
Amazing!! Marker reminded me alot of Briareos from Appleseed which I really like. Glad nothin' bad happened to him!
that was BAD ASS!!!!! well done, keep them coming
Really awesome! That could make an outstanding pilot for some series. Can't wait to see what' happens next.
EXCELLENT ! Hope he gets to continue this series.
That was fun! The girl was a real good actor. Wish it was longer would like to have seen what was down there. Good job!
I just realized how the world in mainstream movies are mostly about the characters interaction with each other, instead of the world they lived in.
Great short. The girl actress has some real talent.
I'm thinking a Blockbuster , a very very good short video 😀
better than hollywood.
Not enough old-school sci-fi like this around these days. The robots were very human.. Quite unique.
Great Story!!
I want MORE!!!
Excellent work...would love to see more on this story
Impressive. 2 minutes and 20 seconds of credits. It’s like a short of its very own.
Not a bad flick. I look forward to more episodes. Keep'em coming.
I'm not understanding all of the bad criticism about this short film I understand that people have different viewpoints and what they want to see but this is actually a really really good short film one of the best sci-fi short films I've seen on RUclips
Outstanding!!! Flesh it out and I'd pay to see it.
WOW. Damnit, this is just like the video games that are so kick a** and never make it to the major movie production. I would love to see this one go further.
Damnit, a cliffhanger. Arrrghhh

Out-freaking-standing. I sincerely hope it gets to full production, cuz I. WANT. MORE!!! :)
I want that robot with the girl to be redeemed. He's a cool character
Screw that, this needs to be a movie !!
Ik ben niet van de Sci-Fi, maar dit is wel erg mooi gemaakt voor een productje voor RUclips.
FREEEEKIG AWESOME!!!!
That was a very mean plug for more funding.... you definitely got my vote
REALLY good! Didn't want it to end, I was in.
I want more!! Good stuff!

It's a shame that this never seemed to go anywhere.
So pissed I haven't seen this until now. Really well done both acting and effects. I didn't want it to end.
yeah good flick... more please!!! very well done, id pay to see the whole movie
ohh this was fun to watch !! i want more of this !!
LOVE IT i want more please....
More, more, more! 👍
This would be a good Sci-Fi series
This started strong.... and then, "Let go of me dumbass, like omg!".

All short film fron CG bros are real good ones. Congrats.. go ahead..!

Definitely left me wanting more!
Awesome short film... can"t wait for the full length version.
Now that's a teaser for a major motion picture or series right there... very slick, leaves me wanting more...

It was well done but ending was unsatisfying - I guess that's the point - we have to yearn for more David Levy - I'm yearning already.
brilliant film!
Please continue it!
Id gladly watch a movie based in this universe
Custom armor and weapons are on point love the designs!
Great short film guys, you have talent and would love to see a continuation of this series even if you didn't have one planned, its simply fantastic.
I think this film is phenomenal and I wanna see a full length version! Indiegogo anyone?
The movement of the robot is almost human , amazing 😉
Omg. Its 2020. I loved it but im left hanging. Like that movie Adam. Please finish this. Please
Awesome vid, when the black and red robot shot that 4 legged robot I saw the splitting image of a Tau Fire warrior.
OK. That had me riveted in place and left me wanting more.
Personally I liked it alot and would watch the whole series easily. The plot and setting was definitely interesting and you could take it so many directions. Keep it up!
"...her yearning to find other organic life." You mean like the scorpion, insects, plants all around? Do you know what "organic" means?
