I am the director of Cyan Eyed, and I would love to hear your comments on the film! A huge thank you to all of the awesome crew who helped out out an amazing adventure over the last 7 years. Thanks for watching!
@@ian-c.01 Thank you very much! One little tip for fully CG cameras is to have the pivot point roughly 40 centimetres behind the default location of a camera pivot point, which is typically at the lens. This mimics the natural way that a human would hold the camera by always having a little parallax in every camera pan and tilt.
It was AMAZING, The animation was great the smoke detail and the cloud detail was on another level this was an awesome awesome movie. Great job to everybody involved 👍👍
It truly boggles the mind that we do not have more films that adopt steampunk/dieselpunk/whateverpunk aesthetics when there's clearly been a demand for it. This short film scratches an itch that Hollywood hasn't given us since Treasure Planet.
@@Nezui I thought so! Extremely underestimated the project's cost in labor and needed dedication, but I knew it was years' worth of work! Shout Out and Respect and Thanks to the Team! May your value and love project continue to be appreciated from here on up!
I definitely love this. I have soft spot for steampunk and in this case it is not a typical one - no rainy/foggy city full of smoke and machinery but beautiful landscape and flying pirate ship. I really appreciate the visual processing - metal surfaces, smoke, effects but also the characters - no talking needed, as just facial expressions, gestures and sounds are enough. And there is certainly nothing easy to make a metal robot with no real face - a "warrior" to act and look also friendly and understanding. Many thanks also for the happy end - at one time it seemed to me that the happy ending was by many authors to be "out" because it is only good for fairy tales for kids... Luckily not all the people agree with it and I am glad I could enjoy this great short story.
Maybe it’s my ability to anthropomorphize anything, but it seem to me that the sense of urgency, anxiety, and other very human qualities were transposed through the somatic gesturing and overall movements of the robot. What a beautiful piece of art. Thank you for taking the time to deliver this to us. Bravo!
Your ability to anthropomorphise doesn't need to be that good when the robots are humanoid and even have facial features... I don't disagree but our main character(or characters if when they split they act and think seperately which is an interesting concept) is very human looking even when in 2 parts
Forrest Gump doesn't have Anything on you geniuses! Just love the steeampunkishness and the grapplers. Nice touch and the storyline is A-Ok.. now back to the grindstone because we want more TYVM
Many thanks for your kind comments! I am actually working on a pitch for a limited series based on the back story f the pirate character, Captain Corliss "The Red Snake" Vail. More information can be found here: www.nezui.com/ and a new teaser trailer will be released soon!
Crazy old woman here..animation was awesome, story and characters, I'll be watching for more. I'm a fan of John Varley. Been waiting for someone to do 'Titan'.
It's a nice basic story ( a rescue ) that has a conclusion, so many shorts don't these days and the little details make it extra special, worth watching again, love the visuals.
Incredible short story! Amazing action with a lot of heart and expressiveness in the design and body language of the robot(s). The visuals were stunning as well. The idea of the robot shooting _past_ the girl in freefall to grapple itself was so cool; never quite sen anything like that before.
Thanks for the kind words! There was three ideas that survived from the very first version of the previs, and that was one of them. Happy to hear that you love that moment!
@@Nezui Absolutely! Was very unique as well as provided the physical path for the cyan-eyed girl to pass along that healing touch. Also forgot to say that the pirate ship itself was gorgeous as well.
This has more world and character building in under 8 minutes and without a word being spoken than most Hollywood movies or AAA games. I love it. Amazing!!
Once I realized what was going on, I almost said "Go dude, go!" out loud. And then when his special ability, I giggled like a little kid. So thank you for creating a movie that delighted me to no end.
This was a very fine viewing experience, I was v. impressed with the graphics, the fight choreography, the artistic imagination, and with the amount of emotion and heart that was expressed by the characters (without speaking a single word). I say that the entire crew should be proud of what they've created!
Absolutely incredible job. The animation looked flawless and your guys's smoke detail, oh my God that was just awesome. This is definitely in my top 3 from DUST for sure. Great job, I really enjoyed this one 👍👍
A lot of effort certainly went into this. For me personally it was 7 years of evenings and weekends working to 2am practically every single night. Thanks for watching!
Loved the artwork, specially the metalic reflexes of copper, tin, etc. quite life-like. The steampunk-esc design was great as well. Excelent animated short!
That opening shot was just about the loveliest thing I have seen in SF. Beautiful landscape, the giant structures ifar below, then the flying pirate ship puts us straight in a whimsical but epic steampunk world. Great work!
So....the existence of this piece of art alone clearly disproves your premise. Maybe look around and realize that there are equally amazing and thrilling pieces of art in other genres as well. Your loss of faith in humanity is not new, it's quite derivative, and at this point in history, very boring. So, stop showing your lack of input, intelligence, and knowledge, and spend more time with your fellow humans. Or simply do a RUclips search for "cool scifi cgi indy stuff".
I agree humanity lost that ability. I get bored with modern superhero movies, Disney flixes, action, and Star Wars. Most of the remakes are woke anyways. Because of Will Smith complaining about Wild Wild West, we've lost the steampunk genre.
Such beautifully rich and detailed animation. So much to see and so little time to see it. Completely swept up by a film with no dialogue. A picture, or in this case a short with no dialogue, is worth more than a thousand words.
I've seen and forgot about this short a hundred times. Each time it still catches me off guard and gets me hyped.. this could be a movie, series, or a video game.. I'm am down for all of it..
Outstanding SciFi fare. Definitely a perfect fix for my science fiction habit, which has been starving as of late. Eye-candy graphics with a purpose. A story was swirling around in my head at first, but I happily succumbed to pure visual magic. Gonna save this for multiple rewatch.
If this awesome style of presentation was around when I was young, I would never have discovered the outside world. Now, at 61, I don't mind taking a break for some AWESOME entertainment. Many thanks from an ex Software Engineer!
The attention to detail and making the mechanical parts interact seamlessly with one another is very impressive. The environment outside also felt very real. Great job all round.
I'm such a sucker for steampunk aesthetics and I really fell in love the design of Grunt. So much character and such a devoted family member acting as Nessa's surrogate father/mother figure. I suppose that was part of the design concept, especially when it's shown that Grunt is actually two units merged into one with their own unique complementary purpose. And letting the visuals tell the story was an interesting storytelling choice that paid off as by the end you'll care about the strong bond between Nessa and Grunt.
This was amazing, I loved the action, the characters and the world itself, I'm a sucker for steampunk and you did a hell of a good job. If anyone deserves a reward it's you.
Cyan Eyed.. You're effort is just magnificent and beyond words. Look forward to the sequel. Dust. Your god sent to showcase such amazing talent. Keep up the great work.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾THAT WAS DOPE AF!! 🤖🤖 You did it once again DUST!! Thank you to all the short film directors editors actors actresses ect. Continue to do great work🥳
The most amazing short film I have ever seen ! Incredible work by all of you! Sounds graphics and totally worth the effort! Thank you for making this happen!
I'm not gonna lie to you. When I saw that ship, my immediate reaction was along the lines of: Here we go again. Another filmmaker tries the 18th-century pirate ship can fly trope. Such films (read: Three Musketeers 2011) turn me off. However, that feeling was gone in seconds. This is amazing. The detail. The action. One of the most visually satisfying stories I've seen on Dust. And the relationship between the android and the prisoner didn't hurt.
Just.... WOW! This is so STEAMPUNK and I LUV IT!!! Only problem with this Short..... it leaves you wanting SO MUCH MORRRRREEEE!!! OMG, please make more to this! I want the background story and the plot!! So many questions!!💖 ❤️ 💕 Bravo Nezui... Fantastical Work!!
Thank you for providing a very satisfying ending. There's nothing more frustrating than becoming absorbed in a short that took an enormous amount of work to create and ending either on a cliff hanger or the demise of the main character. I loved everything about this. It was easy to watch, understand and enjoy.
Okay, THAT was very cool! This and Wes Ball's "RUIN" are the two very best scifi/fantasy shorts I've ever seen. Well-crafted and well-written, particularly how, in the midst of all the incredible action, so many questions about the situation and the characters motivations are raised. A really superior short! I'm looking forward to a full-length feature based on this.
@@Nezui since YT started I have watched about a billion of these. This for sure goes on the same list as RUIN or Azureus Rising or Envoy or No-A or AMP. My list of these super A++ Platinum awesome shorts is easily countable on 10 fingers and maybe 10 toes. Congrads on entering the top of the top in my book. More please :)
This is extremely well-animated and the fight choreography is excellent. My single criticism is a lack of context for why Corliss has kidnapped Nessa. Seems there's quite a tale there and it feels incomplete without understanding Corliss' motives beyond "Yar! I'm an evil pirate!"
Your comment is valid, as this is essentially a slice of a feature treatment that it is a part of. I hope that the short can kick more development into gear. Thanks for watching my film!
It's obvious to me that Cyan is a battery of special power, power that when harnessed made the Pirate hard to content with. And, I might add, was enough for her to risk losing her ship, her weapons, and ultimately, her life.
Tremendous acheivement' Thank You' Haven't seen Such a beautiful 'Classic' ship' in decades! A very incredible and awesome presentation! Very Glad the Righteous won! Blessings always! 🌎🌍🌏
I look at these gorgeous and uplifting visuals as a former Star Trek fan, and wonder why SecretHideOut with all their millions couldn’t have given us CGI that’s clear to see and not tinged with blue and hidden in darkness? This is what high-end CGI looks like, bravo.
I can't help but wonder if this was inspired in part by Final Fantasy, a few very familiar design elements like the airship and the gorgeous landscape. That last shot of the sky was utterly breathtaking!! A true masterpiece! 1000 thumbs up 👍
Impressive! Beautiful art design, amazing lighting effects on all that shiny metal. The choreography was just a bit too chaotic -- I had some trouble keeping track of where everyone was during the fight. I agree with that other commenter about the opening shots -- you could sell posters of that ship in flight against the sunset.
To be honest I dont normally watch these animation films. However this one has out done my expectations so much so that I had to play it on my big screen. The clarity and details of this was outstanding. Well done superb.
I love it. Saved as favourites so l can watch it again and again . The level of detail , action and creativity just keeps blowing my mind each time l watch it. We need more of these people who step outside the box to open your mind and dream a different level of creativity.
Absolutely superb. I don't comment often, I praise even less, but this truly impressed me. The art design, the cinematography, story-telling without dialogue, magnificent stuff. I wish animated movies made by the likes of Disney/Pixar and Dreamworks had half of this creative power and talent behind them.
Wahou ! such a masterpiece, one of the best steampunk short ever made, graphics are absolutely beautiful, animation and steams are georgous, action is flawless, the story is crystal clear despite no speaking + its a pirate ship, 20/20 :)
YOU ROCK!!! THANK YOU The cinematography was incredible! Colors, details, action of all, and so majestic!!! Please keep doing more of this as a complete movie!! Sincerely, Bruce L. Hall

Wow!!!! What a fight scene!
this 7 minute movie was better quality than most Universal Studios/Disney movies
Part of my wish these short films was longer, but part of me wants nothing to change and to keep doing what you do best.
Many thanks for your kind comments! I am actually working on a pitch for a limited series based on the back story f the pirate character, Captain Corliss "The Red Snake" Vail. More information can be found here: www.nezui.com/ and a new teaser trailer will be released soon!
Crazy old woman here..animation was awesome, story and characters, I'll be watching for more. I'm a fan of John Varley. Been waiting for someone to do 'Titan'.
Holy cow, that was a whole movie in 7 minutes! Great job. Kept my interest the whole time, had a satisfying ending and all without any dialog.
Thanks for liking my film! It was important for me to have the film accessible to all by having no dialogue.
This could reeeally be a much longer film. I'd so pay to go and see it.
Satisfying ending? This interesting short feels like a teaser of some feature
It's a nice basic story ( a rescue ) that has a conclusion, so many shorts don't these days and the little details make it extra special, worth watching again, love the visuals.

Whenever I watch a Dust short, I imagine that it's a glimpse onto another world in our universe & each video is someplace new.
Yeah, they have that feeling when I watch them too. It's like you can let your mind free like when your a kid.
Once I realized what was going on, I almost said "Go dude, go!" out loud. And then when his special ability, I giggled like a little kid. So thank you for creating a movie that delighted me to no end.

Wow, what a testament to the talents and passion of all involved. This is a masterpiece.
It's really inspiring to see people put so much effort into something they love. You feel the passion in every second of this.
A lot of effort certainly went into this. For me personally it was 7 years of evenings and weekends working to 2am practically every single night. Thanks for watching!
What did I just see? The fine details and expressions of all characters, interesting storyline, perfect matching sounds/music. This was spectacular!
Loved the artwork, specially the metalic reflexes of copper, tin, etc. quite life-like. The steampunk-esc design was great as well. Excelent animated short!
Thank you! I spent a lot of time on those surfaces, and am happy to hear they are appreciated :D
Beautiful film. Love the whole steam punk vibe, but the detail, the imagination, the whole feel of the film was just great. Well done everyone!
Thank you for the kind comments about my film! I have some breakdowns I have made available on my channel if you are interested in seeing more.

Beautiful landscape, the giant structures ifar below, then the flying pirate ship puts us straight in a whimsical but epic steampunk world.

Since humanity has lost the power of dreaming such things, we needs masterpieces like this to keep our fantasy alive
no one has lost nothing

A little known fact about my film is that the title is actually an anagram for 'eye candy' ;)
I was totally invested in the characters, plot, ending--something that oftentimes does not happen(for me) in feature length movies. Outstanding work!
I love the “words not needed” vibe. The action did a lot of work. Great job!
The color palettes!! Stunning! I'm not really a steampunk person, but this whole film was immensely satisfying!!
That was beautiful. As soon as i saw the flying ship, i thought of the "Edge Chronicles". Please do that one!!!
This is one of the best Dust sci fi shorts I have seen. I hope the director and the crew is working on another short and or maybe a sequel.

The attention to detail and making the mechanical parts interact seamlessly with one another is very impressive. The environment outside also felt very real. Great job all round.
Love this short film: the pirate captain is wicked cool, and the robot is very likeable. Good story-clearly told. I can re-watch this many times.

All I can say is WOW!...the scenery and the story is not lacking anything! Well done! Clouds, background..over the top amazing!
Loved it! The falling scene had such an amazing physical feel to it!

As soon as the opening shot rounded a cloud and I saw the magnificent flying pirate ship, I knew I was going to love it
It's like if Arcane had an alternate universe or something
Was definitely getting serious Blitzcrank vibes from the robot.
Did not want this to end.
Will pay for more, and I am sure, I am not alone in that thought.
Thank you very much, Ray.
This should be a full movie... Amazing animation, great work 👏👏👌♥️

Fantastic themes, steam punk, pirate ship and the mix of robots and the two women. Better than a lot of full SF movies of recent years.
The animation is really cool, if it had a nice audio design as well, it would be top notch
Thanks for the comments about the visuals! FYI, the sound design was by Skywalker Sound.
Pixar eat your heart out, that was the single greatest 3D animated short I've ever seen.
Impressive! Beautiful art design, amazing lighting effects on all that shiny metal. The choreography was just a bit too chaotic -- I had some trouble keeping track of where everyone was during the fight.

Excellent piece. Thanks for the diversion from the ordinary.
The gentleness of that robot is extraordinary
This is a fantastic film. Thank you for making and sharing it. Thanks to DUST as well for providing this outlet for filmmaker’s to share their work!
Stunning. Rich. Emotional. Inspired. I love everything about this.
THANK YOU . That was AWESOME !!
GREAT job to YOU and your CREW.
NO-A is now officially my second favorite short.
Beautiful artwork and attention to detail. The fact that you took the time to model the clumpy grease on the chain inside the robot made me smile.
Finally a CGI 3D Animation that deserves part ll.
This is absolutely extraordinary. I have no words.
You had me with the play on words "Cyan Eyed"! I'm flabberghasted ! So much packed into a short time, I know, I'll watch it again!!!
Johnny Depp, you may be the GOAT, but eat your heart out as the new Pirate on the block.
Ha, what a great comment, thanks for watching my film!
One of the best imagined and crafted movies I have ever seen on Dust! What a show.
Holy crap, this looks like a trailer for a triple-A MMORPG. Freaking incredible!
