"All he does is create entropy!" -That's the funniest physics joke I have ever heard! :)
More ideas in 15 minutes than Hollywood has had in 15 years.
Apply water to burned area
0aq@@denecastles8416 Hollywood no longer employs screenwriters. This saves them time and money. Sifting through stacks of old and new comic books until one is found that can be used as a script. Faces of actors (many cases its a crossover flash in the pan from the music industry) can be inserted into whatever configuration desired. Voila, a movie is born!
@@godfreecharlie 😆😆😆
Many thanks!
@@ericlawanderson Science fiction used to be a genre of ideas, not endless iterations of super-heroes prancing around in suits. Your work here shows imagination, spirit, complexity and humor. I really like being treated like an adult and allowed to fill in some of the spaces with my own imagination, as opposed to being force-fed the same old tropes. You should be making movies, not the current set of filmmakers making product, not art. I will do you one more solid. Read anything, anything at all by Jack Vance. If that doesn't make a zillion ideas for great movies burst out of your head, I'll eat my hat.
What a magnificent film
Imagination is one of the most powerful things humanity possesses..Long live our hero Lufo !!! ...and what an achievement at only 14 billion !
On what did they base the counting of years?

After years of watching different animations, I can say this is the best story telling, wonderful and entertaining piece of animation ever made.

Purely astonishing imagination and skill. Hollywood is dead. Long live Lufo!
Muerte a Hollywood

Wishing we were wannabes.
There’s so much magic in beautiful story telling… absolutely Magnificent 💫✨
The talent on short movies like this and others are incredible. The talent making them extraordinary. Thanks Folks
I love how the writer of this short film interprets “the process of galaxy creation by higher dimension beings”. Such a lovely masterpiece
Also how he opens it up to an even higher power than the "laborers" @3:14 when he was denied further access to the information on the DNA. Then toward the end when the blueprint came back to him with the DNA map to allow the seed.
Simply amazing
Muy subliminal pues es el engaño
"I love how the writer of this short film interprets “the process of galaxy creation by higher dimension beings”. Such a lovely masterpiece"
Yes, what a completely original concept not ever done before, other than in pretty much every Religion on earth, he just tossed some scientific jargon and called it good.
@@SlayerofFiction he wasn't presenting the concept like its something new though, it was just he's interpretation, no need to get angry about it.
@@lautaroalday7225 I enjoyed the film, but am shocked others think it was an original concept at all.
One of the most imaginative films I've ever seen. The animation was top notch. Thanks to everyone who made it.
And thanks to Douglas Adams who wrote about this decades ago, it's not a bad copy really
This is actually the Genesis story but giving credit to someone else not to the Almighty God!!!

Equal parts clever, original, creative and touching. Thank you for sharing your humanity this way.
There are no coincidence in life. Everything happens for a reason, and everything is part of puzzle. We may not see the bigger picture. But everything has a significant role in what’s come in the future.

@@remotexpolde Don't eat them they're billions of years old and disgusting
It's just a copy of "the planet builders" Douglas Adams wrote about.
Although this is simply an amazing animation, I just experienced a sense of numinous awe at the very end... Life and the processes involved are a mystery that will never be unveiled.
That is where you are wrong. If you consider the real author and creator of this universe who actually desires to communicate with us and spend eternity teaching us you have an incredible future.
Mans,womans,ladies and gentlemans,this is a real treasure in front of our eyes.Amazing,thank you,Lufo.❤🎉😊
"He creates nothing but entropy..." 🤣 i need to hand this one to my mother...
What does "entropy" mean..?? Enter a copy ?...
@@jessiejames2155 One of the meanings of Entropy is the degree of disorder or randomness in a system. Chaos, for short.
@@jessiejames2155 In the physical world, all mass and energy tend toward entropy which is a state of perfectly uniform distribution of mass with a net zero energy potential. Or so goes the theory. A hot mass will cool by radiating it's energy to nearby cooler mass and so on until all energy is evenly distributed. In so doing, physical mass is also emitted into nearby low mass space. The theory was described in a short story by Isaac Asimov called "The Last Question". Fascinating story if you're interested in the topic.
I especially like the last little segment, where the very first step upon dry land is compared to the first step onto the surface of the Moon.
And we wouldn't have had one without the other
Nope completely wrong You think man kind was created just by chance in some cesspool pool of liquid and we evolved from some lizard lmao our genetic structure is put together so perfectly it's like taking a rolex watch apart putting it in a Box and shaking it for a Billion years there will never be another rolex watch Without some intelligent being putting it together and that is GOD!
@@magnacartasamadams8189 I think you dont realise just how big a billion is.
@@dougaltolan3017 One century has 3153600000 seconds. One man could tell off a billion in his sleep.
@@magnacartasamadams8189 first of all, the film, starts with the explanation of our 'more than perfect' 🌒
as our solitary companion, that helped evolve life, into such amazing complexity...
I suggest ya start, with the how& why's (did it get there, Inthe first place) and the rest of the Q's leave then for astrobiologists to ponder upon. Ya are either too naive,or too gullible to see the 'bigger picture' Continue measuring yr hours + minutes of yr days, seeing yr Rolex, and think the rest of the world as yr oyster
😫 ouops I meant Ur watch....
I love this story telling of creation! It's just amazing!
Truly outstanding! Thank you Eric Law 😊👍
This is such a brilliant piece of animation and I keep coming back to it. My inner child and 55yr old self just loves the graphic and playfulness of the story from a very talented creator.

Me too.Must be the 4th time.I see different video everytime although same video.This is the genius of who put this incredible masterpiece together! Thanks. Also thanks to ......er....Lufo.
My third time and nearly 70
And boy. Does mom sound like my mom. Thank goodness I had 1400acres to hide on. Love from Australia
The use of sacred geometry and esoteric information is very impressive. Took about an hour to watch this short film because I was pausing every other scene looking at all the deep meanings behind everything and googling definitions left and right, and putting together the puzzle of the bigger picture that this clip really offers.
there was a meaning for sure...
it's a bizarre concept but very close to possibility
YES, YES

Totally made me rethink my thoughts about the "beginning". I thoroughly enjoyed your concept and idea. The stern but gentle and understanding father figure ( sounded like someone I know,Dad) and the ever loving mother who keeps her eyes on Lufo. The soft humor, definitely loved it. Thank you. 😊
Your imagination is phenomenal.
I love all the shorts you made.
Totally mesmerising.
Thanks.
This film could have been 12 hours and I'd still watch in one go. So good.
Directive "42".... The answer to life, the Universe and everything! :D
I see 42 likes, just perfect... Wanted to give my like but that would just increase entropy!
And what about the Dolphins? " SO LONG AND THANKS FOR ALL THE FISH! " I got the same memory from watching too.. nice!

It just keeps on getting better every time I watch it. This is just an amazing piece of content!
Me too.Everytime I watch it.There's more.
Now this right here was a perfect use of my time.
@Martin G Nope. For me, too, it was just right.
And Lufo brought a huge rock to circle the Eart. And Lufo called it a Moon. And Lufo saw that it was good.And there was a few minutes, then Lufo rushed back to his yelling dad.
I see what you did.

This was literally THE Best thing I have seen in my entire life! Beyond brilliant 👏 The writing and the creativity just WOW! I crying as I write this. I am blown away ❤❤❤❤❤
Не расстраивайся, о сотворении мира написано в Библии. Мне жаль, что ты попался на эту ловушку и невольно восторгаешься Люфо ( Люцифером) нарисовавшим тебе ложную картинку!
Before Lufo's construction work he glimpsed the future of what it would cause.
I think most people missed the light-hearted point of this. Lufo is an artist at heart, but he is generally board by the life that has been dictated to him as, in sorts, an assembly line worker... doing the same thing day in and day out. So he attempts to inject a little of his creativity in the regimental work that he has to do... much to the chagrin of his boss (and possible relative). So, to not be interrupted, he goes off on his own to create the mural that he blueprinted earlier (which turns out to be the face of the moon). But, upon completion, he realizes that nobody is going to ever see his masterpiece. Disappointed he heads back to the pack, but, on the way, with the help of his blueprint paper/computer, he realizes that the proper placement of his masterpiece next to another planet (Earth) will create life and, ultimately, an audience for artistic work. So he does just that, again, much to the exasperation of his boss. As he looks back at what he's accomplished, he glows with pride, so much so that this glow could be interpreted as a halo... ergo, the angel that helped create life on Earth. Her greatest evolutionary step is when the first fish stepped onto dry land. And what was the first thing it saw? Lufo's masterpiece! Since then we've been so enthralled by this "work of art" that we created technology exclusively designed to visit it. An artist's ultimate acknowledgement. Conclusion: The more strongly an artist feels about his creative work, the more he will move mountains, or, in this case, planets to bring his work to and for the masses so all can appreciate and enjoy. (Also, a subtext moral to this story: Don’t let supposed authorities stifle your passion, as it could amount to more than you might have ever imagined.)
Well stated!
@@benjaminshealey7451 Thanks, and thanks for taking the time to read it. I was possessed to write this synopsis because of the intelligence, creativity, and quality of this animation. I have one question for the author which I searched around, but was unable to find, which is: how many total man hours did it take to make it?
@@craigjohnson4302 I don't really know to be honest. It took me 2 1/2 years working in my spare time. It was a lot of hours. I lost a lot of sleep. In the end I had to hire several people in the last 6 months to help get it over the finish line. Thanks for the superb synopsis. Exactly right.
@@ericlawanderson I'm very thankful of your response. I didn't expect to get an exact tally, but base on what you relayed, it gives me an idea of which I'm not surprised. From my childhood to this day in every movie that I view, I haven't watched really it until I've sat through the very last credit, even though I'm, and usually am, that last person in the theater. I do this for two reasons. I recognize deeply trenched people and learn things I wouldn't have otherwise, AND, even more so, I have to pay homage to the inordinate amount of work that goes into these projects. Now days, even more so, the standard audience takes the making of movies for granted, especially those which includes superb CGI such as yours. Now I think that's partially due to the sheer amount of content that's being turned out these days. With all that being said, it can be quite ominous to be a stand out in this ubiquitous market, but you did achieve that without question. I compliment you on your stick-to-it-ness and a job well done. But that pretty much goes without saying based on all the awards you've received. It's a great idea and you implemented it well!
I remember watching this short film many years ago. This comment is underrated, even already knowing the director has confirmed your hypothesis, I am both moved and awestruck by your words as an artist myself.
Thanks for thinking outside the box Lufo. You did a great job.
Que extraordinaria producción. Mis felicitaciones.
So glad I ran into this film! Absolutely loved it. Love everthing about it from the animiation to the story. Thank you for sharing!
I watched this years ago, i watched it now. It’s still my favorite interpretation on existence there is.
Your imagination is astonishing! I hope you stay ORIGINAL and give the world .... more magic!
We have creative work like this that Hollywood is afraid to touch? YET (especially Sony) keeps churning out "re-makes" of movies that need to stay dead. Movies like this will have their day because of sites like CZcams bringing them to the masses. Great story and visual. Lufo is a character to love, so adorable.
This short is what got me into cgbros-shorts and dust shorts. As a professional filmmaker, I see the flood of beautiful sci-fi minds at work. Much love. The first movie I ever did was sci fi. It was with Kim Catrell and Rae Dawn Chong back in the early 80s.
“He's 14 billion years old and is still not growing up”......
Not really....this universe is just one of their many creation...as you can see they were already talking about their next job,creating next Universe!So he's got to be older than our Universe.
He says he's "14 billion" without specifying units. Earth years would be a pretty poor measure considering they're creating the earth! They must be using some other metric.
Genos Demon Cyborg Ah, how silly of me, when he says "The boy is 14 billion! When will he ever grow up." I don't know why I didn't assume he was speaking in earth years! its so obvious to me now.
I am still very confused however, the boy is clearly a perfect metaphor for our universe as they are both 14 billion years old, however I'm not sure how they can both be 14 billion years old if the boy is 14 billion when the universe is created

Apparently this race gets pension at about.. 100 billion years. That would be unbearable, unless they perceive the passage of time tens of thousands times faster than us.
Douglas Adams would have been very proud. Beautiful animation.
Pretty good. How well you could know that Lufo looks like this. How exact you represented all these Lufo's capabilities. I'm so astonished. You deserve to win the film festivals. With great pleasure.
I was moved into smiles with that “entropy” design, and moved into tears with that just “one step further” . So true as I ever fantasized what a race with eternal life will do, to build one another cosmos as their routines…… greatest authority becomes greatest responsibility, to add something new into new designs become ultimate tasks
Because in the eyes of a child, anything can have value.

G, the gravitational constant. Do not confuse this with (little) g.
This excellently done and a great story. I especially like the use of light, the way Lufo is illuminated at times. Towards the end, when he finally goes back to the "portal" or whatever, and he turns around to look back...the light envelopes him again and one of those circle things with the alien text briefly appears around his head as if a halo. Finally, as the critter comes up out of the water and we hear Armstrong's voice (I watched every Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo flight growing up)...then as the view zooms in on the eye of the critter, the music...and seeing Apollo 11 heading towards the moon (unfortunately, backwards -- it wouldn't turn around to point the engine of the service module towards the moon until it was time to do the lunar orbit insertion burn)...it gets me every time. The only other thing that should've been caught was having the moon rotate counter to the Earth's rotation. The same "side" always faces towards us -- it's "tidally locked". However, later, as the several "info rings" began appearing around Earth, the moon is as it should be. Those technicalities aside, it's still an excellent short and it would be great to have a higher resolution version to watch.
This is a wonderful animated short story. The concept is excellent as well. Great job on this one 👏 👍
The universe is a mysterious place.

-Micheal Fine
+Michael Fine I love this paradox:
If one were to create a universe with no beginning or end (as you say) then he's creation of it is definitely it's beginning but it is a universe with no beginning or end.
***** that could make sense:
If one were to create a universe with no beginning or end and it is established that he is the beginning and the end then it is possible that he could begin a universe with no beginning or end as such a universe would have been constituted through his existence and thus through his existence a universe with no beginning or end can have a beginning and a end as he'll still exist before and after both events.

Mr Eric Law, this was mind shattering, I have never seen anything that actually moved me, and for that I thank you. Now I can die happy.
This is the kind of Sci-Fi films we need to produce more seriously, because it's thought provoking but it feeds the imagination.
We have enough super heroes. I bet there's a fuckton of story tellers and concept artists with similar ideas that could question our existence beyond our own understandment. Show yourselves guys, c'mon! Make us dream.

comic books are based on science fiction and deal with these types of ideas.Its wise to look up the ganre before bashing it.
All so people could appreciate his art. That's relatable right there.

"art"
it is art, yes !
Now if only Lufo's creation will grow up and mature without destroying itself. Absolutely brilliant. Always does take a child to see what is truly possible- I am so glad that only my body ever got older lol
Man how did they get all this awesome footage? Some kind of special equipment I suppose, very cool the creators agreed to star in this film I know they’re very busy
No matter how many times I watch this movie, I always love it. Amazing imagination, creativity, animation. Lufo is adorable. Great work
Yeah me too.I see Lufo in my dreams.
I knew time was a bad idea.... 😂 😂 😂
Get yo hand out my pocket!
I loved that remark, on point :)
And an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
I first came across this gem years ago - and enjoyed it immensely. I found it again a couple times in the years that followed and enjoyed it again, each time. Like the Disney ride, "It's a Small World" (which is best seen with a small child, tho you then have to go again and again and again...), there's something new to see with each viewing.
I thought about it again a few days ago and the quixotically quirky spirit threaded through the entirety of the 16:38 minutes. I stumbled across it again a few minutes ago, queued it up, and listened as I added some extremely deserving praise for this small treasure. I've bookmarked it now, something I try to be *extremely* selective about doing or I'd have the whole net ref'ed.
Thank you. Thank you for your imagination and for getting it all together so you could offer this fabulous short film to the net - to the world - at large. You guys well and truly rock.
Outstanding short film. I was captivated from the beginning to end. Such a beautiful and unorthodox use of the human imagination.
That was one of the most enchanting things I have ever seen...
Yeah
When I don't know what to watch, I always gravitate back here.
This makes as much sense as anything else I've seen. The creativity is A++.
I have seen this countless times and it JUST became obvious to me that "planet 5" had moons of it's own... such attention to detail is why I love this so much!!!
"That boy has produced nothing but entropy!" So great- and in the meantime...
Eric Law Anderson- this was a visual joy for mind and heart and spirit! The delicate wisps of creation folding through the incredibly subtly shadowed images of cranes and scaffolding and construction, blue prints made to bring up memory of old, old navigation maps of the world 🌎- every scene brought a new delight! I kept pausing and greedily poring over your gentle, harmonic contradictions, symbols, and scientific references everywhere that were just beautiful in their whimsy and fine tuning to the story! You're a treasure, a pleasure to have in the creative world, knowing you're working on your next wonderful, brilliant story!🙏🐋💐🦦☝🙏

@@climbtheladder9440 what surprises most people about a great idea is how simple the idea was to begin with, sometimes it writes itself, other times it comes from two or more ideas, the brilliant john lennon (of the beatles) wrote "i am the walrus" just to confound people who were looking for deep meaning in their music, that was the idea wrote the music and lyrics... "lucy in the sky with diamonds" was simply his son's take on a nursery rhyme, everyone was sure it was about "lsd", lennon wrote another song called "because" while listening to yoko try to play beethoven's famous "moonlight sonata", he reversed the melody, cut it in half and used the finished product as the melody for his own song.
ideas can come from a myriad of sources, the brilliant part is knowing how to use these well studied technics to inspire your own creation, lennon didn't just pluck an idea out of thin air, he was always working on some process to flesh an idea out. he was always as inquisitive about the process as much as the final product.
Lucy in the sky is Lucy the Goat and since he a child of darkness the diamonds is the night sky. When they speak witch language they not going to tell you who they really serve. That's that weak light only Lucy can give those seeking enlightenment but not seeking true light through Jesus. This dont take imagination just an anti-Christ spirit and a sketch pad.
What a great concept, it never gets old. It sure is rife with meaning around the holidays.
Thanks for sharing!
Unbelievable...but, it kind of is. Loved this soOoo much.
God dam it lufo!!! you done messed up!!! Now I have to deal with life and existing.....
Same
Am I the only one here who can't watch this only once?
I'm the same. It's so good, I've put it in my Awesome Films playlist. The only films that make it into there are one's that illicit an emotional response.
Nope. This stands up to repeated viewings.
I've watched it 6.67x10^11 times!
@@marshalljarnagin9370 Beat me to it!
I can't watch it even once.
Excellent work. A beautiful masterpiece. Thank you.
wonderfull work of art and story telling i love it specially the ending "with neils armgstrong "Lines
THIS is an original! Even if hitchhikeinthegalaxy has first mentioned cosmos-builders, this is a beautiful Original movie in all aspects. Could you make someone happy a little with a movie? yes, this one did it for me.
At last, this is a video WORTHY of its awards
Hint to hitchhikeinthegalaxy: phase "42" is mentioned in the start
Wait till NASA finds Lufo's signature on the dark side of the moon.
Beside the moon nazis?
Wonderfully imaginative and very smart! I'd love to see much more like this! Great production, fantastic graphics, incredibly unique, very-very entertaining! Fantastic film and a must see for anyone with a heart! I truly hope to see more like this!
Watching this made me feel, good!
THANK YOU!
I've watched countless videos like this and this by far in my eyes what's the best one
can't figure why Hollywood can't produce movies of this beauty, beautiful guys, speechless
+ION iC those movies don't have VIOLENCE that so many humans want to SEE.. so they've been stuff inside a secret vault. so another true world wide war might bring them around to a somber reality with this kind of movie....
hollywood rely only on books and comics and remakes of the beautifulold films.
It's because Hollywood writers are mindless sheep that have no original ideas.
what makes you think your comment is better then mine? because you swear in it?, you're 2 years late to the party little boy... go troll somebody your own age and let the adults talk, move along.. nothing for little kids here...
@@GenXMetal_Head Actually, I suspect that it's not the writers that are at fault, but the suits in charge of expenses and the bottom line who clamp down with the death grip of cliche and repetition, in pursuit of a big payoff at the cost of originality. I know a few writers who write for TV, and oh the stories that never get told . . . because the money-spinning ideal audience of 16-25 year old males wouldn't like them (not enough guns and bare ladies). So instead of new, interesting ideas, we get re-makes not just of old stories, but American re-makes of (much better) foreign films instead (see "Cat in Order of Disappearance" with Stellan Skarsgard just now remade with Liam Neason as, I believe, "Cold Pursuit", among many others).
It's been in my recommended for a year and a half and I finally watched it. Wow am I amazed. The little sayings like "wait an eon" and "massless" were so smart lool
this has to be one of the most simplistic representations of intelligent design ive ever seen... i do, however, enjoy the wonderment of a child creator and how simple our universe really seems to be... beautiful
"LIFE IS REALLY SIMPLE....BUT WE INSIST ON MAKING IT COMPLICATED."
Mr Anderson This is wonderfully done. Excellent in every respect! Bravo.
*Thank you Lufo*
Simon Wu
I thanked Lufo as well, before I saw your comment. It would seem we agree.
Simon Wu n cu
Watched this a few times now, and I will watch it again for sure .......
No question, a story for the ages; a story that should be told! I spent 35 yrs making motion pictures and television. I'm quite sure that this would and will be a noteworthy project. Please do not give up on the pitch, eventually someone with the clarity and vision will endeavor it's breath of life bringing it to the big screen. All in life, I find, is timing (lol). Long live Lufo!
Yes. What a great movie it would make.But then,maybe not.It is now a total masterpiece that any great artist would leave "be." Because it is so really complete with a stellar-conception of life itself but also so down to earth with lufo's mum telling him to get a move on.Similar to a young adolescent getting out of bed to go to school or work.
“Wait a eon” like “wait a minute”
How very wonderful! Can't say enough about how great a creation you video people made...keep creating!
More than a great cgi animation this was a wonderful film. Mesmerising . I loved it. Feels nice too watch!
Awesome and beautiful !!!
