The bright colors and enormous industrial aesthetic of Chris Foss, Peter Elson, and other famous sci-fi artists of the 1970s are something that is sorely lacking in modern science fiction. This visuals shown here not only try to preserve this style, but look better than most science fiction films being made today. Paul Chadeisson, you remain an inspiration for us all
Well said!
Add to that Doug Chiang, and yes, spot on!
I do agree that sense of magnitude is missing. For me I thought of John Berkey & John Harris
Reminds me a lot of the hand-drawn cutscenes from Homeworld

I like how this highlights a scary aspect of automation, by the looks of it the factory doesn’t have AI its not malicious it just keeps on working as intended forever. I just wish modern blockbusters had that amount of visual storytelling.
This is such a great achievement.
yeah, the paperclip maximiser take on AI
The AI the eventuals kills us won't have evil intentions. It won't even know how to feel malicious. It will just do what it was made to do, by one of us.
@@tyson31415 the fact that AI content mills are stealing his shit to clickbait people into their industrial quantities of low-effort slop is simultaneously depressing and amusing in its irony.
If you like this aspect, you should check out the manga BLAME!
Almost like the faro swarm. It simply followed the directive to destroy it's enemies, and happened to consume the biosphere in the process.
Man, you have some serious talent. This wipes out hundreds of Hollywood productions. The philosophical aspect, the details, the composition. This is something that could have easily come out of Frank Herbert’s mind.
Isaac Asimov..
When you forget to cancel your naval production lines in Hoi4
Or it’s just the end of a modded factorio game (K2-SE).

This is a perfect example of a Universal Paperclip Machine.
A preprogrammed or dumb-AI controlled industrial complex whose purpose is to create one specific thing, at the expense of all other priorities, with no understanding or concern for potential damage.
It's a shipyard. It builds ships.
To build ships, it needs resources.
To gather resources, it mines and refines material from the planet's surface.
It will continue to perform this task until it is deactivated or it runs out of available resources. Unfortunately, the former seems impossible for one reason or another.
thank you for your amazing support !!🙏🙏🙏 i am working on a new Solstice - 5 film :)
I cant wait! You are truly a gifted story teller!
In the wealth of SciFi productions that are available this truly stands out. It's the undercooled storytelling, contrasted with ultra high detailling of the models and environment that gives this movie it's grandeur. I wish you Godspeed, and am looking forward to the result !
The amount of details is insane - I can only imagine how long this took to render. Great Work!
it took me a year to produce this film :)
@@paulchadeisson5891 I don’t ever comment on RUclips videos but I have to say Paul, this was a beautiful piece. As somebody has already said, it’s terrifyingly thinkable.
The aesthetics chosen here fit perfectly. The carriers have a typically Naval feel but the rounded back section has a stone like appearance, cleverly done as it’s all harvested from a predominantly stone aggregate. The rusted autonomous drone-like machinery silently moving around in a soulless and calculated manner really drives home the somber feel of this gigantic military industrial endeavour.
I love Sci-Fi shorts, and you sir delivered. Bravo 🫡
@@paulchadeisson5891 Wow, well it's awesome good job.
I love these futuristic style stories, it's like a mix of the expanse and legend of galactic heroes.
To put it simply,this kicked ass!
Been working in game development for over 30 years and used to be a 3D modeller. It's rare I see something truly inspiring or new anymore, but this has a powerful sense of scale and dense realistic detail. Really impressed by the whole epic vibe and art direction generally. I'd love to see this team tackle a hard sci-fi series. Beautiful work Paul.
It gave me Howeworld: Deserts of Kharak vibes.
I wonder if the very high depth of field allowing a lot of small detail to shine through doesn't do a lot of work there (alongside the amazing amount of judiciously placed microdetails) to give that massive sense of scale. makes you feel like you're very far and still everything is huge. basically the exact reverse of the miniature effect you get from a very low depth of field. still it's impressive to achieve this while using mostly areal shots that could crush all the depth.
The idea of planet consuming automation is cool.
I could see this as an expanded anthology series ala World War Z (the novel).
Currently in school for game design, anything you can tell me about the industry and or any advice you can give me? If it helps I’m heavily leaning towards the programming side of things.
this is one of the most awe-striking videos this platform has ever recommended to me. i can't even grasp the scale of every shot of a bird's eye view of the planet or the explosion of a carrier. this is a work of art you've helped create, paul. hats off.
Truly a masterpiece in the genre of inustrial dystopic sci fi. The giant pale structures, the desolate autonomy of factories. And of course, the nebulous presentation of alien life. Its...beautiful.
This sort of thing is exactly what modern cinema is missing. All the genuinely masterful, creative pieces are being produced by small artists and teams, and I'm absolutely here for it. I want to know more about this world, I want the full lore, I want to know MORE. You have completely and utterly captured my attention.
Agreed. This is art - not Hollywood 'product'.
Well with how bad it’s going on in Hollywood right now with ratings. It might open up the door for the smaller studios to start making stuff like this.
It’s amazing what happens when you focus on creation and on telling a story rather than redo another old movie and cram social bullshit down someone’s throat.
Unfortunately this is mostly created using copy-past of pre-made assets imported into a licensed graphics software such as unreal engine. No modern studio wishing to sell tickets in a theatre can legally use this method of creating visuals; it would open them up to unrecoverable lawsuits, or destroy any profits from licensing fees. Therefore visual studios must create their own assets, and cannot reuse assets in other projects. This means the studio has to hire a lot of asset designers to make a lot of assets very quickly, or higher a few designers and wait for them to make the assets over a long period of time.
@@ryansemplexyz My understanding was that Paul modelled these ships himself. Was that not the case?
someone please give this team every resource possible to make Solstice5 into a full on movie / series... absolutely breathtaking! phenomenal work by this team.
if I win the bloody lottery, they get their funding^^ if they want it ofc
🙏🙏
Why? The video had imressive graphics, but the voiceovers didn't make any kind of story. Plus, Aircraft Carriers are SHIPS that carry AIRPLANES. Here, you had a bunch of SPACESHIPS, still carrying..... AIRPLANES. Spaceships carry spaceship fighters that run around in a vacuum, not silly ass airplanes with big fans in the middle of their bodies.
Nothing mentioned about the war going on that required an entire planet to be strip-mined for resources. Nothing mentioned about the people needed to crew these thousands of spaceships built. Who bombed them? Why bomb them but not bother to bomb the factories that were making them?
Cool video. Makes slightly less sense than a Star Wars movie. Which is hard to do, so it's got that going for it, I guess.
@@mitchellwhite9728 Why is it always a guy named something like MItchell White, or Marshal Thomas, or Tom Jenkins, that takes a dump all over everything people enjoy?

Congratulations on answering your own question.
Jesus, what an incredible piece of storytelling. I was already so immersed in the hopelessness of this endless consumption and its toll on human and environment alike, but then that reveal about the planet at the end made me audibly gasp. What a frighteningly real scenario. Hats off to everyone involved in bringing this nightmare to life
Dude the feeling of simply massive superstructures and factories of far beyond, the slow and realistic movement of the carriers and planes as well as the distinct difference in the factory barges/cargo ships. Everything about this screams excellence and perfect cinematography I could sit here and be enamored by the movement for hours. Amazing work and outstanding effects/cinematography overall.
This is incredible! This is what science fiction is supposed to look like. This needs to be developed into a full length film or a TV series. Well done!

This animator deserves applause for their exceptional work on the short animation film. Every frame is a masterpiece, and their attention to detail is commendable. The integration of sound effects enhances the narrative, creating an immersive experience. From character expressions to scene transitions, each element is meticulously crafted, showcasing a true commitment to the art of animation. This individual's ability to weave a captivating story through their attention to every detail, including sound, sets a commendable standard in the realm of short films.
The freshest take on "a monster of our own making" I have ever come across. Absolutely phenomenal
This 10 minutes made me wanna see more of the whole universe you created! Such a quality! If you pair up with a real good character designer, this is gonna feel more real than any scify I v ever watched! Great job!
This was 10 minutes? IT felt like 3
Agreed, more story telling in this 10 minutes than in the last 10 years of Hollywood movies.
Imagine a movie like that where our civilization did that and then ran into another civilization of aliens out there who were hostile. We have an entire planet full of carriers that need some place to go...
@@geefhotmail6311 I would find it more interesting if they ran into several different alien species but all being friendly in some manner, ranging from complete pacifists to "we don't start any trouble but we WILL finish it", mainly because what will they say to their people when they have all that firepower but no real purpose for it.. I never found it that interesting to have ones "bad actions" being beneficial (or even crucial) for the end outcome.
thats a cool expansive direction, but i think it would be cool to keep it more relatable on the human level, such as some trade interactions between species being brought in as an explanation for how certain advancements were achieved first secretly then trickled down into public awareness, funnel corporation, etc... @@blacke4dawn
The work of 3d artists is simply impressive. It looks hyper realistic. I can't imagine how much time was spent on rendering.
Rendering? Imagine how much time was spent on the creation of these insanely detailed 3d models! I certainly wouldn't have the patience to make anything even half as sophisticated.
@@TheOriginalTPro I really admire the work done by everyone involved in the creation of this video. My comment is a compliment, not a devaluation. I understand that it took even more time to create the models and create the scenes than it did to render them. I just wondered what kind of power is needed for this? I understand the work and see what has been done by professionals.

This reminds so much of the manga "Blame!". Highly recommend if you like this style of art and story
This insane cinematography reminiscent of Halo Reach's is something I've yet to see executed properly, if at all, anywhere else other than in the game, and now in this here video. This was beautifully crafted and executed. Good job on this film!
I'm absolutely enthralled by this concept.
Also love the craft design. The diggers especially look like offshore oil rigs, smooth hulls with boxes of industrial buildings placed on top. All the ships have that eeriness of looking like they were designed to be crewed by tens to thousands of people, but just are now empty and without purpose, and yet they persevere.
Ive been racking my brain with theories. Maybe building the ships is a coverup for something else they are digging
@@AMCguyit’s said to be that the owner organization collapsed and nobody was available to turn the switch off.
@@AMCguy I think it's economic. The rest of the former Continental Alliance's economy depends on the expenditures of the factories. Shut them down, and everybody starves.
"Too big to shut down." I see an allegory.
Was rather empty
@@69Sobriquetit's making stuff that stays on the planet. Not used at all. It's an empty nothing story. Just tid bits.
the AI be like, "you get a flying aircaft carrier, you get a flying aircaft carrier, everyone gets a flying aircraft carrier"
"It's tragic to realize the only thing that matches the enormity of this situation is its failure."
That's great writing, and reminds me of a quote by Carl Sagan regarding nuclear weapons.
It would have been if it made any sense. What was the failure?
@@AntonGully For the video? The failure was that the automated factory keeps producing for no need and purpose. Just endless consumption and processing of the alien ecosystem for the sake of it. They are unable to control it, much less stop it.
@@AntonGully Per the lore, mankind lost control over the automated factories. There's no way to pull the plug. Meanwhile the automated factories devour a world bearing signs of the presence of an extraterrestrial intelligence. Plus the human workers they definitely bombed.
TL;DR: They turned a scientific marvel of a planet into an Amazon fulfillment warehouse full of products that will never be used.
The "size" of the enormity is only eclipsed by the "size" of the failure.
@@AntonGully Yeah that just kinda . . doesn't fit. This industrial project did exactly what it was supposed to, which was the construction of warships.
In 10 minutes you managed to build a world that´s infinitely more appealing and interesting than the entirety of Disney-era SW all together. I want to know more and I´m, definitely coming to the premier of your next sci-fi movie. It´s actually wild when you think about it - you´ve outdone a multi-billion dollar studio.
A masterclass in visuals and sheer cinematic scale. Absolutely wonderful job to everyone involved.

I just finished Rebel Moon not too long ago. Somehow this 10 minute short film packed so much character and lore and intrigue inside its runtime. I am enamored and desperately want to know more about everything.
Oh, your poor soul, how did you survive watching rebel moon?
Finishing Rebel Moon is quite a feat that not many live to tell.
At this point I take billboard advertising as a warning: Do NOT watch this movie
@@chaomatic5328it’s such a horrid cliche movie
oh man the skip 10 second button got red hot on rebel moon while i was watching. That thing is a godsend. i somehow managed to watch a full feature movie in under 15 minutes. Sorry the first one took 30 minutes the second one under 15.
I was so mesmerized by the art that you have created that I absolutely did not realize that it was already 10 mins. Sometimes I really thank the RUclips algorithm to suggest me something so beautiful. Great Work Man!!! I could not leave without subscribing.
This honestly is the sci-fi I WISH we saw more often. MASSIVE Industrial manufacturing and processing in the sci-fi setting is one of my favourite concepts you absolutely NAILED it. The interactions with the workers really ground it all into reality and, in my opinion, makes it a surreal prediction of the far future for the human race..
Not to forget the Astronomical (no pun intended) detail this film shows off. It blows me away that you've managed to create something that looks so real.
Huge thanks for bringing this to us. I'll be sure to keep an eye out if you we're to ever create a feature length film is this style. 🔥🔥🔥
(5:22) Kudos to the sound design team. I wish more movies/TV shows would incorporate sound delay after explosions. It makes things more real...and terrifying in scale. 😎🤘☮
I find myself using this short as background ASMR while I work for exactly that reason.
i also think the explosions were inspired by the huge explosion in Beirut.
They likely were. The scenery does not hint at a moisture rich atmosphere atmosphere however, so why the condensation during the sonic wave? What else would condensate? It seems like a small oversight. @@spinnenente

Lmao what lore? There is a station in space shown once with no context. Most of the dialogue is a word vomit of platitudes. They are building atmospheric aircraft carriers on the planet they are strip mining? Why is a space faring alliance not building space craft with space capable aircraft in space? Why are the factories unstoppable? Why did this alliance think they needed such a massive production of ships to begin with to warrent the creation of these factories? Was there some catastrophic threat that never manifested? The visuals are great, but the "writing" is just incohesive slop. Good sci-fi is grounded in some way or has context to give reason.
Every now and then you find one of those gems that just shine so much brighter than the others to a point that it feel like it come from another universe or another timeline. The story, the camera work, the visuals, the sound design everything scream like one of those million dollar masterpiece that become a cult classic like interstellar or blade runner and yet it's just a small art project made by a handfull of people nobody knows distributed for free on youtube. It absolutely baffles me.

The detailing on the planet and ships and the explosions and the speed of sound, the fact that the detailing on the factories actually looked like they had purpose and weren't just detailing, the timid and slow story telling, the music
Everything about this was art!

Agreed, it was amazing. The only thing I would say that is not good are the explosions
@@ggsap oh? I found them more realistic than your average hollywood explosions
@@kipchickensout Not sure which movie you are talking about, but the fire was coming out of solid floor, and it was instantly ignited instead of having a rising fireball, it also turned to brown whereas in real explosions the outside turns to gray first, and then the inside fireball extinguishes, the plane just sits still as an explosion happens right underneath it, no debris + some more stuff. Well those are just nitpicks, and nobody gets explosions perfect
very glad to read that! 🙏🙏
Blender is not inherently worse than Maya or Lightwave or Max. The quality comes from the artist's vision and work, not the software.
this is literally a masterpiece, congratulations on finishing the film. People like you Paul make me move forward and with each step do something bigger than the previous one.

Seeing the field of 'carriers' covered in dust kinda reminds me of the aircraft/military equipment graveyard in the US.
All they need is just a major war to spark somewhere and boom, dusts are off of the ships and they come to life.
And i would love to see that!
Especially reminds me of the tank graveyards in Afghanistan, Kuwait, India, and Pakistan from the India-Pakistan wars, Soviet-Afghan War, and American-Afghan War.
I finally got around to watching this and man this is amazing. I half expected the factory to fight back but the fact that it just continued is in a way even worse
You should win a god-damn Oscar for short film. Holy crap. Fuckin' amazing. The info drop on the planet's erosion frickin' nailed me to the ground with the implications for the previous front end of the film. Amazing work!

I can't begin to express how interesting and beautiful the VFX, the production quality and this world are. It's one of those things that you want to read into for days, learning every little detail someone has thought of. Yet it is just this one video, leaving you with so many questions.

It's a rich and believable world, having worked in the mining industry, and dealing with the bureaucracy of the large multi-national entities that run them, this oozes realism to me. A mindless machine constantly carving and rumbling away. Amazing work Paul, you and the team have done an amazing job.
The factory is not malicious. The factory just is. It does not care about flesh and bone and beauty. Humans have made it to grow, so it does. And like the roots of a growing tree creep into the tiny crevices of the rocks beneath it and eventually burst them apart in their expansion, so will that planet crumble.

Wondrously done. For that amount of time, i was taken to Solstice-5. The story, the visuals, the sounds. The added fact that Solstice 5 has the landscape that was designed by an intelligent species just really implements realism and could do nothing but add realism. The Alliance does successfully destroy that narrative, and the landscape. That truly adds an industrial sorrow with its own color palette and marks a galactic tragedy. What you did here is hard to find. Something could really be built around this.
Это гениально. Удивительная история. Философия. Красивый визуал музыка.
I think people would absolutely go crazy for some behind-the-scenes on your process of creating this type of stuff.
My mind is blown even trying to think about how you went about it!
Love this raw, gritty aesthetic. Not abused with post processing. Really gave this underlying feeling of uneasiness from the factories.
Being industrious is necessary for the population. You have no manufacturing nothing will move forward.
That's the reason for a lot of luxurious things in life. You want what you want, you have to be willing to pay the price. If not it becomes hypocrisy to say anything against progress. Plus, they picked a planet specifically for industry.
I'm a little disturbed that nobody else is commenting on the cautionary tale this short tells. Do they not realize how close we are to doing this to ourselves? Do they not know that to some degree, we already are?
@@Vinemapleits because this is a lazy attempt to mimic better works lol why do you think it’s meaningful
@@Vinemaple don't see how that is possible. Especially when there are tons of resources that are being withheld from everyone. The cautionary tale would be 1984. Not production.
Some great ideas and a lovely aesthetic. I thought the razed, post exploitation terrain, looking ever so slightly Gigeresque, but subtley more geo-mechanical/geo-biological, than his biomechanical, and was a great touch that lent a very relevant melancholy to the aftermath, as if the remains of a living world had been defiled, or that the planet itself had been alive in some slow gentle way, and the machines had just gutted it completely, in a long, simultaneosly brief moment, much as we do now with Earth, which it's safe to assume is the metaphor in question here. The music too, the final credit movement, was wonderful, and again dripping in sadness. Wonderful stuff... xxx ;-)
Thank you . ( 2024 / May / 26 ) ( Then , and since , I have enjoyed experienceing hearing Robert Fripp's electric guitar stylings of late 20th Century : "Soundscaping "/ "Frippertronics" since 1973 ) .
I came here for those massive cinematic animations... but what blew me away was the main question of this brilliant movie: Where are we going?!
It gave me goosebumps. It is fascinating and horrible what we will possibly be achieving if we continue following our path.
As a work of art I hope this film will get all the prices and rewards it can get.
As a philosophical and moral statement I hope it will gain far more attention.
Congratulations. You created a masterpiece. Short, mighty & intense. Showing the right pictures & asking the right questions - at the right time.
The question in itself is valid, but the way it is asked here is stupid. But maybe if most people are so blind, this film has performed its function
thanks so much 🙏🙏🙏
Great use of that super telephoto to make the constructions appear massive and heavy! Love the ship 3D printer time lapse shots. Really nice volumetrics too! Big Neill Blomkamp vibes.
Outstanding absolutely I want more of this
The animation and the sound design are both great but so are the actors. It fits together so well. We need the rest of the story!
This is absolutely fantastic. It gives me Homeworld vibes big time. Wish this were made into a series or movie.
A bit of Homeworld, a bit of Armored Core, a bit of those giant background factories seen in Titanfall and Destiny.
If you look at the artstation of the director he's working on Homeworld 3
@@icyjiub2228 no way!!
My jaw is literally on the floor. My god. Not only is the detail of the 3d models just off the fucking charts, but the mastery of camera work and focus length actually makes them FEEL massive which is incredibly hard to do without ever showing a single human being or other recognizable object for scale. This is simply a masterpiece of CGI, hands down. I will be harassing Corridor Crew to look at this every single day now. I’m genuinely in awe of this short film.
I was thinking the same. This masterpiece deserves the exposition such a channel can bring.
This is one of the best Sci fi scenarios ever.
I felt weirdly grounded and realistic truly awesome
This was genuinely insane to watch considering I just saw it passing on my recommended. One of the best animations I've seen on RUclips, and probably in my entire life.
Amazing and succint story, and some of the shots were truly incredible. Keep up the good work!
thx for kind words 🙏🙏🙏
I too got it in recommendations and was going to pass, but something told me…
I think this is the best animation I ever saw
8-Pointed Star of the Chaos Gods, mixed with an STC, mixed with the Golden/Dark Age of Technology, while at the same time looking like a Blackstone Fortress. Very cool.
Glad I'm not the only one comparing this to Imperium of man before it's AI fuelled fall.
This was not only one of the best VFX pieces I’ve ever seen, but you immersed us in an entirely believable Universe for ten minutes. Thank you for sharing your work !
Kicks off my megalophbia, but it's an excellent film. The level of detail gives it such a sense of scale and of how enormous everything is. It's quite frightening.
This is the absolute best of what science fiction can be! Dealing directly with real world issues in a way that other genres can’t without coming off as preachy. All while delivering mind boggling visuals and top tier world building! Bravo! Will definitely be looking for more from this group!
Man, I have been a huge fan of your work ever since I discovered it on Art Station and never knew you had a video channel as well! Awesome stuff. The use of whites and grays and the reflections of the surrounding environments is incredibly immersive. Great use of the "used universe" aesthetic.
🙏🙏🙏
Just damn beautiful work. Seeing good sci-fi like this feels exactly like taking a breath of fresh morning air, it just awakens your mind to all the potentials and beauty.
Thanks for taking the time to make this and share it with the world.
The contrast between the amazing CGI visuals and cheap talking head shots, also between the serious, eloquent narrator and the stupid, cringe dialogues from the interviewed people is just uncanny. I feel like this was intended, it took me a minute to realize this is supposed to be funny and ridiculous. "It's like watching some kinda giant layered manufacturing machine." What a masterpiece.
You've always been excellent at conveying a sense of scale. The surface detail and texture work look superb. Shout out to those who worked on shot composition here; everything looks appropriately massive in every shot! I think the concept is pretty cool, and incorporates a lot of your best art pieces together. I always got a great sense of movement from your work, but now I get to see it all shown through animation. Amazing work!
Compared to this, Marvel did a shitty job in Ant Man 3... I always wondered, why their effects didn't work on me. Today I found the answer :D
That time-lapse of the ship being 3D printed @2:00 ... um... that looks absolutely real. Incredible work!
🙏🙏
the machines that never stop working
For some reason this video is working with my ultrawide monitor and its the best thing ever
God damn this was absolutely beautiful. I love Sci-fi or just Futuristic animations in general and one thing a lot of ppl get wrong is the idea of scale and I loved everything about this animation. You put a perspective of impact on what could possibly be something us humans would do. I hope you keep up the great work m8!
