Based on this video I can say that this channel should have many more subscribers. This is an excellent portrait of Simon and his works. Thank you very much for this sir!
Thank you, this rounds out Stalenhag's works, And Tales From The Loop nicely. As an artist, I am completely enthralled by his work. As a young child I was drawn to old derilict industrial buildings, but found the adults around me discouraging me from drawing these things. I very much enjoyed TFTL, and hope there will be more.
Finished watching the series, and this review gave me more than I was looking for. Very informative, but still kept in line with the spirit of the show, which I found was "to explore", not "to explain".
This was a really good video. I watched a couple of your older videos and it's clear this was a different project for you. Maybe it was the ones I selected but this one clearly had a script and it looks like you did a good bit of research. If you keep making content like this you will have tons of subscribers in no time.
Dominic Triana Thank you so much! Yeah some of the more recent ones were scripted with a mix of on the fly stuff as well. Filming stuff out and about with planned out stuff is what I’d love to do more of. Just time is a rare resource for me currently. I did a segment for one of my friend “Mellow Gaming” videos on What Remains of Edith Finch. Check that out as that was the start of this style. I’ve got another video visually planned which has a script and out and about so watch this space 😁 thanks for your words though. Means a lot to know people are not only enjoying the video but care to see more!
I think the transition to live action was handled very tastefully and the writing helped preserve the mood and mystery of the images. But I do think that the series, visually, was way too sharp and perfectly lit compared to the somewhat more reductive and textured artworks
Was wondering if you'd mention that Generation Zero. I'm pretty sure when the first trailer appeared people assumed he was involved. Flipping great stuff this vid is Moons!
I started in on Tales from the Loop from the RPG and the Boardgame kickstarters. The Amazon series came second, then oddly enough, Simon’s Books came third. The Electric State is my favorite as it’s both storybook and art book so well combined. We are really hoping for a second Amazon season
My dream was to make an Electric State film and I'd be planning it for years, often coming to this video for inspiration or guidance. Now meaningless in the wake of the Russo's plan.
@@UnderTheMoons it's been my dream since i was 15 to make it a movie. i have 20 pages of notes just for it. but they robbed me of that haha. and after Cherry and The Gray Man i'm not too hopeful. i want 'Paris, Texas' meets John Carpenter or 'Nomadland' meets 'Blade Runner'. it needs a director with an intimate scope, expansive scale. James Gray, David Lowrey, Lynne Ramsay, Chloe Zhao, Denis Villneuve, Alex Garland. and you are most welcome, but also, thank you. this is a superb video. much justice and depth done to his work.
You should definitely take a look at the art of Wayne Douglas Barlowe, his art indeed suits the template for another installment in this potential series?
I'd say the series is set in Canada, because those are Manitoba landscapes it's filmed in. In my opinion, I'm not a fan of the series in general. The later episodes are certainly better, but the first half are slow and awkwardly paced. I even watched them all before getting into the RPG, and I assume the latter befits and captures Stålenhag's visions better.
every video you do is better than the last, mate. i bet we can convince someone to run us a TTRPG online. Mellow has a friend named Kyle that's a top notch DM.
Well done! Sub! Does anyone know of any other "Picture Book for Adults" out there? Specifically written and driven by a concept or visual development artist.
I first encountered tales from the loop in my local bookshop and I thought that it looked cool but where's the story? I rarely buy artwork books When I started watching the series however, I thought this world was magnificent! I've rarely come across such nice looking, unique sci-fi stories that have such compelling lore, not in television. Sci-Fi is usually either laser sabers or action films and if it's story driven, the effects are kept to a minimum In the loop series you get a storyline AND amazing visuals! I didn't think it was possible in our television landscape.

Thank you very much for this sir!
Thank you for watching! :) the hunt for subscribers is really strange, but I like what I do so I’ll keep doing it!
It's fell like 1980s movies
Make a video :
Why 1980s? Is like the golden age of movies
It's like back then George Lucas gave them freedom before Disney took over

The quality of your content is ammazing man. Loved it, subbed and looking forward for more. Keep it up.👌👍
Very nice!! Looking forward to watching the show to see how they’ve adapted it :D
Thanks for this informative video. You really worked hard for it.
Good work. I will add this to my watch list, along with Devs.
Fantastic! You’ve earned yourself a new subscriber. This video was very well done. You should be proud. 👏👏👏

What a great video! Somehow I like art more than a live-action version, even though I'm a CG artist myself.

Beautiful work! For one guy to make this video by himself is very impressive!
Why thank you good sir
Love this stuff. Fascinating
very good video! thought i was watching a documentary at times. Keep them coming x
Great video haven’t heard of this until now getting some iron giant vibes.
And congrats on your boost in views and subscribers 👏👏
Great video, was looking for more info on the creator of Tales From The Loop and this was perfect
Thank you. I'm almost done with Tales from the Loop and this video is exactly what I was looking for.
why does this man not have 100k subs?
Was wondering if you'd mention that Generation Zero. I'm pretty sure when the first trailer appeared people assumed he was involved. Flipping great stuff this vid is Moons!
Great video
Hey, thanks for reminding me this exists!
Thanks

How are you under 1000 subscribers! Subbed

Oh wow that means a lot, thank you :) yeah I do worry about how it’s going to be translated into a Russo film :/

I love his art, but had no idea about all this other media he created.
Thanks for the video! Great work as always!
Miss your Outcast streams =)
Are you planning to review HL Alyx given your interest in VR tech?
I'd say the series is set in Canada, because those are Manitoba landscapes it's filmed in.

oneMeVz agree with all that
I love the rpg so much

Mellow has a friend named Kyle that's a top notch DM.
Thanks man :) and I'm definitely up for a quarantine RPG!
watching this for the second time and everything i thought was random footage was video that YOU made. dude. like. damn good job on this video.
Well done! Sub!
Does anyone know of any other "Picture Book for Adults" out there? Specifically written and driven by a concept or visual development artist.

In the loop series you get a storyline AND amazing visuals! I didn't think it was possible in our television landscape.
If you could recommed some music inspired by or related to the tales from the loop universe (aside from the game´s album) it would be great
"å" in Stålenhag is pronounced "au" as in "Paul" - Staulenhag
Salomonsson is actually "son of Salomon" - Salomon-son
Ahhh thank you! I was using googles pronunciation to figure it out. Thanks!
@@UnderTheMoons Despite my British/Scottish name I'm Swedish and I know pronouncing å ä ö right is a challenge 😀
Generation Zero is set in the 80ies not nineties
Carl-Fredrik L I’m honestly surprised it took this long for someone to spot that
Or cooling towers in Britain .
Jesus loves you
Awww thanks
The show was terrible
