I think the only reason anybody thought that was because of the faerie's luminescence lighting the environment. The environment is clearly much more detailed than the models.
Wa Luigi Did you believe it was all CGi???? The forest was real obviously, i knew it as soon as i saw it. This is a small team to pull off a Junglebook on this.
Scorch Not every short film project has to be a series. In fact, that could lower the quality of this animation by wanting to outsource it so goddamn much.
@@stevemorales same. I think someone needs to find a way to get rights to both the music and title of majoras mask and make it a short 3-5 season TV series, or movie trilogy.
It also explains the car that drives by in the final product. ---WARNING! You won't be able to unsee it after reading the next part--- You can see it driving by behind the trees on the left around one minute mark in the final video.
Yuri-sage thank god. I'm like the only one who didn't know Filthy Frank was a character then after seeing this I thought I was gonna feel like a complete idiot
The cgi quality in the short was so good, I thought the whole thing was cgi. I didn't realize how much of the production was practical effects! Very good job, folks. Watching the behind the scenes video was just as surprising and pleasant as the short!
I wouldnt call majoras mask a niche fanbase, sure oot is more popular but those early 3d zelda games have a huge following. Probably way more then the Nes and snes games. And zelda is one of the most popular game franchises in the world.
WHAT?! You used real life scenery of the forest?! It mashed so well together I didn't even notice it. Holy cow you guys did an amazing job with this project!
I thought the woods seemed too real/lifelike to be CGI or whatever. Still, they really did a good job bringing the characters to life and blending them into the real environment!
Gavin Simmons would be very nice but these guys are not really provided with things that huge movie making companies are given, they need really powerful computers in order to do just this, so imagine what they need in order to make a movie, not only that but they may have needed to rent a render farm to render the movie
The amount of dedication that it took to make that video really makes happy. As a really deep Zelda fan you don't know how much this video makes me happy. So I just want to give a profound thank you for the work and the amazing quality!
@@bruna-ih3zh What makes you think he/she doesn't do anything? Please don't assume if you're not sure. He/She doesn't need to share personal information.
Wow. Just amazing. The amount of work and time and effort this had to take absolutely astounds me. Not because I wouldn't spend my time on it, but because I didn't think anybody else would have. I know everyone in the comments is begging for more and that would be lovely, but think of the time this would take! Absolutely amazing.
They DID do an amazing job, but since Nintendo DMCA's pretty much ALL fan works of any kind, I doubt they're proud. It's a shame really, Nintendo has such passionate fans, who do amazing work. R.I.P. Project AM2R...
I've been to that location in Humbolt, CA a few times. It's a beautiful forest, and has a "magical" feeling to it. It's the perfect setting for something like this.
Was recently driving from Seattle to Sonoma and passed through Humboldt and remember throughout a lot of the drive being reminded of Majoras Mask, which was probably partly cause I was playing Majoras Mask at the time, but just realized that his short film was filmed in Humboldt and is probably part of why I was thinking of Majoras Mask.
Doctor Insane Course ya don't, no one has any hopes for anything sonic related nowadays thanks to the rabid egoraptor fans shitting on the franchise and the terrible fanbase
That would be so amazing. They could have HD camera drones flying through the environments, speed it up and then carefully animate Sonic and Friends running at high speeds.
I was honestly glued to the screen the whole time this was playing. So many things you did here blew my mind but are indicative of the high quality of the final product: on-site filming, actor reference, etc.. You all did a marvelous job and I am in awe of your work.
Majoras mask has been and always will be my favorite game from all the zeldas, a world where everyone is depress, scared, dying, dead, stealing, and a doomsday moon also overhead. I have the fierce diety statue, mm manga volume, skull kid figures, n64 3ds and gamecube version. I was always so amazed with the majoras mask itself too. The colors and design always got my attention. Overall I just wanna say you guys did an amazing job capturing the moments better showing that skull kid was being controlled by the mask to showing that the happy mask salesman didn't die lol. I hope Nintendo contacts you guys or you guys contact them for a movie of this. Seeing this on the big screen would be amazing.
thats how i feel about this game. got a tattoo on my leg with the horror kid to honor that masterpiece and to honor that game for being a very special part of my life, a special connection to my childhood. i was always hoping for an animated movie and the fact that it became reality is just one of the greatest emotional gifts i received. im so thankfull. you did such a great job on this. keep on that good work!
when the CGI blends better to reality than all the big films using CGI. YOU KNOW YOU DONE GOOD. EVEN KNOWING THE SCENERY IS REAL DOESN'T MAKE IT LOOK LESS GOOD LIKE DAAAAAMN SON I F'N LOVE THIIIIIIS
It's so refreshing to see so much effort put into a project, which is in stark contrast to the state of films nowadays. There hasn't been a single mainstream film animation that's visuals made me audibly say wow.
EMBER LABS!!!! I Have one big question!!!!!!! What program did you use to animate this with this!!???? I know you have a lot of comments but I wish to know myself!! Plzzz answer!??
This is absolutely fascinating! Thank you so much for this small glimpse how you created such an amazing animation; hopefully it inspires other creators or others interested in working with 3D animation. (:
Guys of EmberLab, with the terrible fate video you almost made me cry of nostalgia, youve done such an awesome job, i hope I can become one day as good as you, kepp working hard, your work is just BEAUTIFULL
Nintendo should hire EmberLab to help with any Zelda promos..Nintendo should do lots of things because their fans are a better Nintendo than Nintendo sometimes
Kyle De Vlugt Nintendo sometimes does good? if Nintendo liked making money, they would have made the most amazing non-cartoony Zelda game possible. not to mention their very own FPS franchise with metroid games being a great replacement for call of duty + destiny.... all Nintendo does atm is repetitive linear games like Kirby, and Mario... like wtf. someone tell Nintendo what the fans want
e.g. John e.g. Smith Wind Waker was fun and all but I really enjoyed Twilight Princess. The artstyle and story were my favourite of the series. I like them all though, they're all pretty brilliant.
You all did an amazing job on this project and I'm so glad you did this behind the scenes. I knew alot went into making it but I had no clue just how much, it really makes me appreciate the video even more. Can't wait to see what comes next for you all.
At that one moment where Majora is possessing the Skull Kid, when he’s just on his knees screaming at the sky, the fog is just wrapping around him like a whirlwind. Like a tornado, or some kind of vortex. Idk if u intended that or not, but It’s a great addition. It really shows just how dark and powerful Majora is. I want to see this become a movie. Terrible Fate can be the trailer.
I figured as much that you guys used IRL footage for the forest. Very nice! Damn good job with masking for the fairies and motion tracking. Zbrush was used for the mask I believe yeah? Very nice, loved seeing that amount of detail on the carving to really give it that wooden texture look. Those animation references were great and definitely emphasizes to viewers and upcoming animators how important it is to have that type of footage for the final cut. Enjoyed the short and hopefully gets some higher ups looking for ideas from you guys!
This was simply amazing. This video showcases some of the most creative, dedicated and intricate filmmaking and animation that I have ever seen. Seeing how many different elements where put into the creation of this masterpiece, where they were put and how they all come together is simply beautiful. I admire the amount of thought, effort, and determination shown that has made a very successful film in terms of people watching being truly ecstatic. I love Zelda, and the film grabbed some of the inner essence of Majoras Mask. I look forward to any and every upcoming projects from your amazing and creative team, regardless of what it's about!
When I was watching it I was looking at the forest like "I bet that's real footage" and now I'm just like "called it!!!" Not to say that's cheating or anything. The 3D models are high enough quality that it totally works and it's exactly what I'd have done.
Plus the blue car passing in the background of the short film was a dead giveaway. Props to the animators for the good models though, they blend in perfectly.
Now, i'm 15 years old, in the future, when I grow up. I also want to be able to animate something like this. That would be my dream! :) I love your work! This clip is so great! Please more making of's! :)
Yeah for what they did it would have been necessary. Though, Blizzard does have considerably more resources than EmberLab. It's remarkable how well EmberLab's product came out though.
King Gonk I'm sure it is too, but it's amazing how the quality of this short can look up to par with what they create considering the budget difference.
If somehow this would be made an actual full length movie with the story of Majoras Mask, I'd probably watch it in cinemas multiple times and buy the bluray. Absolutely fantastic work.
Is there a word for something that's the opposite of the uncanny valley? When CGI is so good that it blurs the line between reality and fiction; where you can't tell when CGI ends and real begins.
I just came 3 years late, but this still is so fucking awesome. I mean, 2019 movies animation (unless Frozen 2 and Toy Story 4) can not be compared to this.
i honestly think you guy's should persue a legend of zelda movie itself in CGI, and see if nintendo could facilitate funds or whatever it is needed for you guys to do this kind of level, so many people new and old would be facinated by the series again, and could give insight to more back stories of different character's and not just link, im sure even a kickstarter with enough people this would get funded. video game movies should happen, this animation gave me CHILLS and i want more!
When your models and animation are so good that people thought the backgrounds were CG as well...
Wait a minute, I saw you in the comment section of the Cats on Mars video!
ChinchillerPillar - Shoot! My cover's blown! *disappears in a poof of smoke*
*in the distance* Remember the potatoooo...!
I think the only reason anybody thought that was because of the faerie's luminescence lighting the environment. The environment is clearly much more detailed than the models.
I thought it was CG till this video
Which reminds me of most CGI dinosaurs movies like Disney dinosaurs
So THATS why the scenery looked so real. It actually was real.
Wa Luigi Did you believe it was all CGi????
The forest was real obviously, i knew it as soon as i saw it. This is a small team to pull off a Junglebook on this.
Wa Luigi the same happened to me, never thought they would use a real forest in what I thought was a purely CGI film
The thing is the cgi looks so real that they can use a real location to it xD
yes lol
@@powerhouse884 wow i bet you feel smart, huh
As an animator I understand how painstaking and tedious this must have been, but I speak for everyone when I say:
WHERE IS OUR NETFLIX SERIES?
I'd have that!
Scorch Right! This is SO good!
Scorch something please emberLabs.. we're not afraid to crowd fund if needed
Nintendo will sue them
Scorch Not every short film project has to be a series. In fact, that could lower the quality of this animation by wanting to outsource it so goddamn much.
This is going to remain the best example of Legend of Zelda fan projects for a long time.
They could easily turn this into a full motion movie and I’ll actually be interested.
@@stevemorales same. I think someone needs to find a way to get rights to both the music and title of majoras mask and make it a short 3-5 season TV series, or movie trilogy.
@@seemeno1 The animators would cry themselves to sleep at night thinking of this
You expect a game based movie to be like this and they give you a fooking live-weirdo-action movie like sonic.
Forever. Absolutely unrivaled

Most likely working on another massive project
They’re hibernating.

well that explains the ultra realistic forest

I simply find it fascinating that something movie-quality would be made for such a niche fanbase like us
And BY such a niche fanbase like us. These guys are a part of it, too, obviously.
I wouldnt call majoras mask a niche fanbase, sure oot is more popular but those early 3d zelda games have a huge following. Probably way more then the Nes and snes games.
And zelda is one of the most popular game franchises in the world.

You guys are incredibly talented. I hope Nintendo hires you for some promotional things or hopefully even a series or movie
...I'm just completely blown away. Amazing work you guys! Seeing the behind the scenes just adds a whole new layer. =D
okay now lets sign a petition to turn this into an -anime- movie
-how about no because nintendo's a fucking piece of shit when it comes to fan films using their IP-
No please no
Is there a word for something that's the opposite of the uncanny valley? When CGI is so good that it blurs the line between reality and fiction; where you can't tell when CGI ends and real begins.
It's called good work.
¡HAGAN UNA SERIE YA! OMG! Cómo amo su trabajo. ♥
Fucking amazing song rendition of the Deku Kingdom guys.
The did not make that track dude lol
I just came 3 years late, but this still is so fucking awesome. I mean, 2019 movies animation (unless Frozen 2 and Toy Story 4) can not be compared to this.
these guys have talent
the CGI and real background blend perfectly, you guys need to make more video's like this
Hands down, this is the best thing I've ever seen.
Please remake other Majoras Mask cutscenes!
this
is
awesome
omg
halp meh
Omg this is FANTASTIC!!!
Now that you began this, you have the responsibility to finish it !!! Wonderful job guys...
God if you guys made a movie of Majora’s Mask I will literally be amazed to the point where nothing else would amaze me ever again.
Great job! I really admire you guys, i hope some day i could do some work like this!
i honestly think you guy's should persue a legend of zelda movie itself in CGI, and see if nintendo could facilitate funds or whatever it is needed for you guys to do this kind of level, so many people new and old would be facinated by the series again, and could give insight to more back stories of different character's and not just link, im sure even a kickstarter with enough people this would get funded. video game movies should happen, this animation gave me CHILLS and i want more!
I know i whant see Saria in this movie😊
An outstanding masterpiece! AWESOME!
YES. The Theophany Deku Palace remix is my favourite of all their tracks. That beginning made me very happy indeed.
I'd love to see some behind the scenes of the music/sound design because it is also truly amazing and well done in this work of art.
