Bruce Branit's World Builder short film in 720p

sorry for my english. I am a newcomer and only now I see your amazing work. a great technical mastery and much feeling. Some over-expression by the girl but I must say great!

An outstanding feat of creativity. As I was watching the piece, I cannot help but think about all the out of the box thinking that went into putting it together. Great work.

Many have praised the storytelling and effects and I don't disagree with them, however I'd like to point out that the performances rose to the quality of the production. The actors really helped bring the story to life and I'm sure it was a challenge being an all-virtual set.

Very much enjoyed this! I think in addition to the project's technological achievements that the story's idea itself is just wonderful. Great work!

Who could dislike this film? I wish I could read their comments on what part they didnt' like.

This has been out there for a while, but I still really like it. Even if the ending is telegraphed, i nevertheless it moves something primal in me, and I think the aesthetic also is in touch with the inner romantic of male "nerds" worldwide. It is not unlike the muse that fuels song composers, poets, painters.

Beautiful. You had me tearing up at the end!

Thanks,

102 likes and 2 dislikes. It makes me wonder what their work looks like. ;o) I'd like to see it alongside this and let the audience decide who has real vision and craft.

But hey, we all have our opinions, don't we? Art has never been objective, it is the very essence of subjectivity. For me, I love this piece of work. (Yes, I can see that the actress is just a bit too aware that she's playing to a bluescreen but with everything else that this has going for it, I'd say it is one of the strongest independent shorts that I have ever seen.)

And that's my subjective opinion. ;o)

Wonderful! Candy for the imagination.

Beautifully done. Good acting to go along with the brilliant effects.

Thank you for Creative COW!

Wow! I have to say that was really amazing.
All the high end technology it took to make that but it was the human element that made me feel the way I did when watching it. Absolutly beautiful!

I wish I can just keep on watching these kind of masterpieces. May be one day, I can wish to make something which people will love unconditionally...

Priyam

Beautiful!! Really touched me deep inside.

I wish I had one-millionth of the talent it took to make this movie. I found it to be stunning. Thank you, Bruce, for a great movie, and to Creative Cow for pointing it out to us.

As a Missourian, I was glad (and surprised) to see we have remarkable talent like this in the Show-Me State.

Saw this via a story on Gizmodo some months ago. Great piece of work; well done!

Wow, Awesome! This is really fantastic.

No matter how far we push ahead technologically, human relations are all that matter & that was a wonderfully powerful demonstration.

Stunning! Awesome work!

I didn't see him hit the Save button once though... ;)

Fantastically Brilliant! Great work.

An awesome piece of storytelling. I particularly liked the end, did not see that coming at all, but it worked perfectly.

Thanks for sharing this wonderful work.

AMAZING work Bruce! A great story beautifully realized, and very inspiring. Thank you!

I was so afraid the story was going to be: impress the girl with her own world instead of dinner at the Italian place on the corner - and then the story turned out to be perfect, and perfectly integrated with the visuals and the audio. Get an agent, pack your bags and move to the Coast if you're not already there. You have arrived.

That is one fantastic movie. Effects were great and they added to the story instead of the normal get in the way. Music, acting and cinematography all top notch.

There is a god. Well, that is what my first impression was. Then I saw the man and woman coming together to seed the world. Just as I was expecting the seeds from the flower to propagate.

Beautifully done. Must have been thousands of hours involved. Great job.

"Like" just does not seem right, How about "Love". This was an amazing 3d motion graphics work of art. The ending was something I did not expect but made perfect sense and completed this beautiful piece with elegance and emotion.
Thank You for sharing this inspiration piece!

wow, amazing work. i was fascinated not only by the animation, but also by the wonderful story. congrats on your effort

Thanks Much, Paul

Brilliant - no other words for it

Have installed W7 and cant find the folder where all my music is stored anyboduy know where and how to locate the folder - it is vastly different than XP

An amazing display of technical and emotional beauty. I saw only one less than perfect element: the green screen keying could have been tweaked some more, but it was still a visually stunning film. Thank you.

Monkey puts down the bone, approaches the monolith in virtual 3d space and creates... everything.

Beautiful

Inspiring

Fantastically inspiring. Jean Baudrillard would have had a field day analysing the heck out of this! Where's the file so I can download the skills into my brain please haha?!?

I agree with Paul - this is an example of superb storytelling. The technical effects are outstanding, but they are made to serve the presentation of the idea, and the theme never becomes subservient to the effects.

This is not only a mastery of technical skill, but also storytelling at it's finest. I still have goosebumps....

I am a 3DS Max user, what 3D software did you use to put this together? Excellent shooting with the Green Screen. Hat's off....

Bravo! Very cool. Technical skill, artistic style ...and a story! Bravo!

How can we 3d artists not relate to this...You've got modeling, texturing and tweaking!
