It's so cool knowing that the film was done entirely using free software anyone can download
Yeah and ultimately it's the user and how much time is invested that makes the end result.
@@Lyu-Phy I mean, if someone was passionate enough then one single person would be able to make the whole scene in about a year I'd say. Given that they can do modeling, texturing, animation, SFX and music of course. Congratulations to all the people who worked on this project.
Yes, no zbrush or any other expensive close source code software!
not to mention how it was done on evee also
Softwares are always free, If you look around. The most important factor is how much software helps artists to grow and make life easy for them.
This all started with a cube in middle 😢
What does that mean???
@@Sahil70001when you make a new project in blender the first thing that’s made/shown is a cube. As a sort of base for everything you’re gonna make after
Yeah i know right must been hard
When you open blender, you only have a cube as an object in your scene@@Sahil70001
Y que siempre lo borramos y terminamos agregandolo 😅
This short movie deserves a place in Netflix's Love, Death, Robots next season.
Exactly what I had in ma head!

I don't know about anyone else, but the two hardest parts of animation for me are convincing sense of scale, and a convincing sense of weight. This short absolutely nailed both. The world feels large... the spaces, even tiny rooms, feel like spaces. And when things hit, they look like they hit and conveyed force. Great story extremely well executed and beautifully rendered.
Very astute. Perfectly described. I learned volumes from your share. Thank U.
Especially the animation was what I didn't quite like on this one. Well, I liked it in the fight scenes, but not in the slower ones. Several movements are weirdly fast for an old-man-character, for example closing the door in the beginning. But it's alright, the story carries it!
@@davidlastcentury Haha. As an old man, I'd say while I can still move fast enough, I do need a few more seconds for the joints to stop hurting. Maybe Rik should have had Ton do the movements for tracking.
@@JohnWesleyDavison Maybe he has robot skeleton
@@heronemosheppard8877
What does "volumes from your share" means?
One day Blender really needs to make a full animated movie (It would be so good!)
@@poopiecon1489 also Maya and the Three
Next gen wasn't done by the blender studio it was done by tangent animation (rip). At the moment they don't have the resources to make a full feature film.
@@poopiecon1489 Blender didn't make it btw. They just used blender.
y'all, he isn't saying "someone should make a full animated movie -in blender-" he's saying the blender foundation should make a full animated movie. There's a difference, its not just about using the software, its the people using it.
@@Nebulaoblivion got it
As a professional from same industry often I am led away into details of technicalities, but while watching Charge I was absolutely hooked and really enjoyed it. It's not easy to put together a good action sequence edit; this was really well done. Love the Sound, Designs, Animations. For some reason this brought many memories from early 2000 good animation films.
Good blend of stylization and realism in animation and visuals. This could easily pass for Love Death Robot episode; I mean it as compliment. Congratulations to Blender Studio Team and Everyone who worked on this. 👏👏👏
Yes, this could really be an episode of Love, Death & Robots. Im absolute impressed.
im currently learning blender and your beginner series is just amazing.
Just wanted to say Thank you :)
Big fan sirji ❣️
agreed
I agree for most part except the wide shot at 00:46 hit me like a ton of bricks. The big open dark areas off to the left and in the background made it look unfinished, and inconsistent with what has already been shown. It's still good work, and I'm sure it was a matter of time more than anything.
I think the greatest achievement of this film, is that it is all rendered in Eevee, the real time renderer. Amazing work!
That is incredible
what the hell?
WHAT? are you serious
WTF?!
What?? You are joking...
Has to be the most heart warming thing ever. This animation shows that people will do anything to keep there loved ones alive no matter what is thrown at them, this animation captures that message perfect and made me shed a tear when I found out he was just trying to save his wife
Yes, it shows that humans will destroy everything productive to satisfy their short term needs. He won't be able to get another battery now that he fucked it all up. And what the fuck was he waiting for until that robot was down to 2%. The story is as dumb as you are.
@@voodooaudio9488 what did you get from commenting this
@@COLOREDLESS. The truth!
@@voodooaudio9488 so you're lonely huh
@@PDD555 Nah, I got yo mama to keep me company.
Maybe it's too fast paced, but the storytaling in every minor detail is astonishing
Love that mechanical "What?" at 0:56
Yeah, that was a nice touch. For a second I thought it was going to go full WALL-E.
how would one go about making a sound like that? always been inspired by walle, would love to do some sound design like that haha
Simple story, well executed. Not a dull moment, lovely!
I think this is my 5th or 6th time viewing this movie. It really is remarkable.
What was well executed? The forced drama? The slow motion? The predictability? The angry teenager music?
@@mikeb3172 booooooooooo
@@mikeb3172 You sadly don't understand the amount of time and effort it takes to create a 3D animated movie so stop hating on it just like that
@@mikeb3172 trash comment from trash person
3:08 Honestly, the end credits sequence and this short film as a whole are next-level stuff. Hoping that the soundtrack to this masterpiece gets released soon...
"Allah! There is no god but He - the Living, The Self-subsisting, Eternal. No slumber can seize Him Nor Sleep. His are all things In the heavens and on earth. Who is there can intercede In His presence except As he permitteth? He knoweth What (appeareth to His creatures As) Before or After or Behind them. Nor shall they encompass Aught of his knowledge Except as He willeth. His throne doth extend Over the heavens And on earth, and He feeleth No fatigue in guarding And preserving them, For He is the Most High. The Supreme (in glory)."
[Surah al-Baqarah 2: 255]
No words were said, but the emotions was felt.
Epic storytelling!
That was Epic! I really enjoyed the "behind the scenes" at the very end.
Hello jared really enjoy your videos, l was amazed when I saw that you used blender to make your videos
Hi jared
You are awesome jared. Your explanation and details are top notch.
What laptop do you use
tool this video
This was just fire 🔥🔥🔥
Perfect for a Love Death & Robot Episode 👍
Needs more boobs and gore and we're set 👍
agreed,a perfect episode
Exactly my thoughts!
Exactly, it would fit right in with the other episodes
I just can't believe this was all made in blender... and can't imagine how much time was put into this 4 minutes movie.
Can I tell you how much I was excited when the security bot transformed at 1:42!? That design is fricking cool! So beautiful, I love it!!
This is hands down one of the best short films I've seen. everything about this is so insanely mind blowing. the fact you can do all of this in Blender! I've my utmost respect for the creators of Blender and this animation, This was literally incredible on so many levels.
That ending... All to keep his wife still alive... Perfect. ♥
Blender never ceases to amaze. This company deserves so much credit.
This was awesome! I love the transformation at 1:43! Was totally unexpected and was definitely a stand out moment. Metroid Dread vibes for sure with that style of robot design and sense of indestructibility.
That Blender timeline for the edit that appears in the credits was pretty impressive. Well done guys. Thank you for all your hard work both artists and devs.
My PC looked at that timeline and ran out of memory.
The fact that Blender (a 3D software suite) also includes a video editor is mind-boggling.
This almost made me cry. I don’t cry at films very often. This needs to be a full movie. I would watch it.
Not really. That's why shorts work. It tells a story without needless crap watering it down.
@user-gs4vx3bg3w Yeah. They are called movies.
This is by far the best short movie I've ever seen! It was so creative and entertaining. The visuals were stunning and the story was captivating. Highly recommended!
Wow, this F'd me up in the greatest way. I didn't expect that ending. The creativity in every frame is off the charts. That truly didn't need to be any shorter or any longer in length. Perfection.
The fact that this was rendered in EEVEE is mind blowing
They didn't use cycles???
thats whats mind boggling to me, free software, with a lightweight real-time rendering system that's constantly being upgraded and might compete with cycles in a few years, and already looks amazing.
Wait what???
This is just eevee???
@@RenderingUser I am amazed
How did you figure that it was rendered completely in EEVEE..?
Love the little Easter egg referencing missing textures in the form of a pink colour on the side of the spray can. 1:15 'After using, check carefully for missing textures on your body.' 🤣
I didn't catch that at first haha
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I SIMPLY CANNOT MY DUDE PFFTTT HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OMG OMG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I UNALIVING MAN HAHAHHAHAHAHA 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦
@@cocopus bruh
@@bean-whipped864 Of course you didn't. No one did. It's only visible for a single frame. You'd have to watch it a frame at a time to catch it which he clearly did.
brilliant - and well spotted!
This is the reason I keep going back to blender! I'm purely amazed at all the things it can do while still being open source! Excellent short video! I was really hooked! May God bless the Blender team!
Although the movie has no words in it, the old man spoke to us with his heart.
Every single frame is a masterpiece on its own. Simply can't love blender enough.
That graphic is garbage
your perspective is garbage
@@dr.angerous
try again troll 😎👍.
Absolutely beautiful movie. Just proves that we can have all the bells and whistles of software, motion capture, rendering, VFX, etc. but it means nothing if you can't use it to tell a damn good story. This was a damn good story.
As a Blender student I've lost the count of times i have watched this , thank you , you really inspire me
Do you know how to make beard and eyebrows like a video?
@@user-ny3zs2xo9y they have videos on the blender studio channel
This is so amazing! Made me replay it many times as it was that good! A dying companion, a loyal friend, a wasteland, a battle, and home.
AWESOME, and all in EEVEE openGL renderer! KUDOS to all of you my friends! It is so immersive that I instantly WAS there, everything was so well done. That poverty, that hi-tech corp factory, and an unique style of Hjalti animation... SOOOO nice! This easily may be the prequel to WALLE. I wish you guys happy new year and a good reception by all critics all over the world. That work on a movie was hard as always, but behind the scenes - also big thank you to all, who contributed to Blender and it's development. Very convincing hairs, particles, fog, smoke, sparks, etc. Tasty ambient, touchable dirt, semi-realism, all well balanced. You all are a REAL ARTISTS! :) And imagine... all you have at start is just a simple default cube!
wtf!! this animation wasn't rendered on cycles?? was it eevee????
@@danialsoozani Yep br0, look at 4:00 timecode.
@@piotao i'm pretty sure it's rendered in cycles and eevee is used as lookdev / previs :)
@@lei.1.6 "The final output will be all Eevee. Cycles is only going to be used in the pipeline for baking etc."
-Simon Thommes
@@lei.1.6 no, charge was 100% rendered on Eevee
Dude, Blenders open movie just keep getting better and better. They've come so far since Elephants Dream. Great job everyone
The fact that everything is done in Blender is really admirable
Especially comp, that's insane.
@@TRUEbASNER Exactly
everything rendered in eevee that is impressive
Fantastic! Perfect story arc, great emotion, amazing modeling. Well done
Holy Cow! This is amazing! The creators did such an awesome job, The story line is unexpected and the mechanics and physics of the robots is super creative.
You guys did an astounding job!!! This is such an inspiration! 😃 This is how short films should be. No second is wasted, clear storytelling, exciting, suspenseful and with an emotional hook. Bravo!!!
The biggest inspiration of all is that they appareantly made this in eevee based on the behind the scenes footage. That's amazing!
Truly masterfully created.. I was focusing more on the story than on how it was made.. Blender has truly come of age and is a true force to be reckoned with! Congratulations! (and as always, thanks for keeping it Open Source, Ton.. you're the true hero of this story!!1)
CHARGING COMPLETED.
Hats off to everyone who works for this great animation.
Awesome!!!!
This is Next Level Stuff, From Story to Performances .
Kudos to the team!!!
Thanks for the BTS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mr. NK 🤝🤝👏👏
I need an extended version of the behind the scenes, it's amazing to see all the work that goes behind a project like this!
Join Blender Studio (even if just for a month or two) and get access to a lot of knowledge and assets, while supporting further work.
omg, production files are very useful. nice open movie. thanks all guys who worked on this project
I love how the animation feels like it has some sturdiness and impact to it, the metal feels like metal! :D And the subtle character animation looks so nice!
Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence. and Blender Team is proving it. All the best guys
I will always be a EEVEE fan!
It really boosted the speed of learning Blender with my potato PC that struggled with Cycles. And the fact that this awesome short is made with it also proves that it's a very powerful engine in the right hands! Cheers!
WOW ! It's amazing how a free open source programme can give you so much potential and I loved the post-production demonstration at the end of the video. Thank's Blender team for eveything!
Brought me to tears. Wholesome and beautiful. The best Blender Open Movie so far!
This is absolutely beyond words. I was expecting it to be great, but the Blender teams has exceeded my already high expectations. Blender is the best 3D software I've ever used and I'll continue to use it as it evolves for years to come.
I love this community.
Thank you to blender studio for giving us such a phenomenal software and constantly improving it. You have allowed many people to look into the beauty of art and give hope that someday they too will be able to produce pieces like these.
Lastly, the creators of this piece, phenomenal overall project with fantastic attention to details and boy that timeline at the end looked clean, congrats.
Heartwarming ending and one of the coolest ideas for a robot I’ve ever seen. This is an absolute masterpiece, and I hope anybody who worked on this finds more work in the industry.
Wow. This is now like my favorite animated short film ever! So cool! I'm in love with his robotic arm.
This is genuinely so impressive! Massive props to everyone who worked on this movie!
Sometimes it amazes me how 🤔 graphics have reached to this level. When I close my 👀 and think about how those 2-d matrices of pixels have changed to this masterpiece. Kudos to makers, musicians, graphics softwares and their engineers, mathematicians and graphic lovers, gamers who have made this possible.
To say it's a masterpiece is like to say nothing, hats off for all people making this
Extremely well done! Congrats to all who helped make it.
A lil tear for what can be achieved with this great software and a big tear for that sweet storytelling. Never forget that a tool is never as good as the hand that handles it, and you guys know how to use your tools to tell a nice story. Keep up with the good work, my fellow humans !
I am an absolute sucker for technological design in films, games, artwork, etc. Absolutely nailed the design of the machines in this film, its a complete masterpiece to just look at, and oh my god, I think my favorite parts were when the mechanical arm tried to take the power cell back from the protag, and the way it looked at him inquisitively before setting off the alarm reminded my of Wall-E. Other favorite was 1:42 when the security bot detaches its weapon and relocates its other arms for hand-to-hand combat, its so creatively sophisticated. Absolutely incredible.
this is the reason why i wanted to learn blender in the first place. to make epic and inspiring work. also i love the robot design, finally one that looks sort of practical and gives the developers a reason to use a robot. strong, ruthless, and has a variety of arms :)
i could go on with everything amazing with this, but it will fill a whole video
just watched that movies that you made 10 years ago
and i will say
THIS IS AMAZING
This is AWESOME! I love Sci-Fi Stuff. 👍 Great work!!
Same!
this is so UNREAL from Blender Eevee!! this scene 2:58 (also very realistic! i thought i was watching a real life movie) is very beautiful emotionally and visually!! the tears really i can feel the sadness from him! WELL DONE!
is that really EEVEE?
@@grojawalip1683 nope all in blender eevee
@@grojawalip1683 Description says it was made entirely in Blender, which contradicts your statement.
it looks like a game cinematic
no way that's eevee, it has to be cycles
I love how the main character used his mechanical hand as a drill when the droid broke it. A sweet touch to the action!
I really loved the ending scene. It's so peaceful.
HOLY CRAP
this is the best one so far
I tend to regularly regret my path of becoming a cg pro because I always make meaningless props and random assets. Movies like this remind me what I came for and why I shouldn't give up on my career.
4 Perfect minutes to tell a simple but engaging story.
Really, really nice work.
Awesome! Thanks to all who made this possible :)
Damn... That felt like a Love Death Robots short film. All done in Blender. Well done.
Everytime I watch blender open movies am left speechless. You guys are so amazing and I believe we too who use blender will improve and become better and better because of you guys. Thanks again for making blender an open source software.
This is absolutely the best short film I have ever watched. Not only the deep story, blender techniques are perfectly combined to create the best graphics. The story is inspirational, show how far reach the love
holy cows, the bgm composition and the sound design are amazing, beyond expectations. the lighting, particles and reflections are great.
Wow, 🤩This is so sick 🔥🔥 can't imagine how many hours it took you guys to model and texture, and animate this masterpiece.

i cant wrap my head around how good this is, especially knowing that it was made in a free programme. Keep up the great work!
First time watching video from official Blender channel, its impressive. Also take note of the fact that this was made from a free software. Kudos to all the people who worked behind this 👏
The amount of heart in this story and the drive to finish entirely is all together and by itself a completed and perfect masterpiece.
Thank you for all the time you put into this
So much to say about this! Firstly I wish I could thumbs this up more than once!
Unknowningly Blender and it's dev team are pushing the boundaries of not only their own software, which mind you, is free and open sourced, they are pushing the boundaries of 3D software and animation! It's absolutely remarkable what they've done, which is also made in evee!
As a 3d artist, game developer and graphic designer myself, I can say this, this inspires me, it encourages and makes me appreciate all the work that went into this. I pray that this team and dev team behind blender gets blessed! Blender is like the Einstein in 3D software of our time! Keep it up, and i hope this doesn't stop! Thank you for this 4 minute experience!
Kind Regards and Love - Keagan Collins

Such good animation...one the best depictions of what it would really feel like fighting a robot created to destroy anything. It just rips your arm off and you have to put your entire bodyweight into a shove just to move one of its arms. Awesome stuff!
So beautifully made. Great job, Blender Studio!
Wow, this is a great showcase for Blender, congrats to the team!
Excellent. Beautiful work, blender to the maximum. Congratulations to the whole team!
what a magnificant work ! i truly enjoyed this one especially the second half it was so emotional , such a wonderful masterpiece ! can't describe how much i appreciate this program and all the staff behind it .. thank you for your hard work , you are the best !
