  • On a desolate island, suicidal sheep Franck meets his fate in a quirky salesman, who offers him the gift of a lifetime. Little does he know that he can only handle so much lifetime. (Target audience age: 13+)
    "Cosmos Laundromat" started in 2014 as an experimental feature film, in which an adventurous and absurdist love story is being told by multiple teams - each working in their own unique style. The opening of the film, the 10 minutes pilot "First Cycle", has been made in the Netherlands by the studio of Blender Institute in Amsterdam.
    The film itself and all of the artwork files were made with free/open source software and are available under a permissive license. Free to share, free to remix and free to learn from.

It came out in 2015 and I was like where the fuck is the next episode and I Google it and in 2015 they said it was going to be a full length movie then never posted anything about it again.. Is this it? Are they going to complete it? If not why put it on Netflix under new premier.. I'm so confused.

    As someone who tryed to commit suicide long time ago, this really got into me, i can say it touched my soul, i even didn't notice i started crying when Frank was being taken given another oportunity. I just find myself involved in too many feelings, maybe i just feel guilty for trying such a thing, but damn... sometimes everything goes wrong for so long in a row, it's like, i just need a breath... and watching Frank starting to fly all over the colors, just felt like that breath he needed. The breath i needed... and eventually got, sometimes the battle comes back, but remember there is always who feels blessed by having you by your side. Never give up my friends, and always give a hand to who may need it, after all, we are all trapped in this tiny sphere called earth, lets be nicer to each other. Magnificent film, i just loved it. Another one trully that has inspired me more into learning Blender. Thanks for the breath, thanks for the encouragement.

      I'm glad you won through your crisis. I seriously considered suicide while a teen, then decades later talked a friend out of it. It can be difficult to convey the intensity of mental pain that drives such despair... and the nearly unspeakable relief of realizing that in the end that's NOT what you want. I remember being ashamed at what I saw as my weakness in contemplating ending my own life, and later feeling humbled at my own strength in turning away from that act. I wish you well on your journey.

      Been there as well for the first time at age 19 or 20, @Coding Billy, but hadn't proceeded to actually giving it a resolved go (2nd time in 2009 and in the more recent past at least once every week). Maybe what prompted my comment on this film is how the makers of it refrained from openly ridiculing Franck as well as refraining from boilerplate judgement, that tugged at my heart strings....(and like you said yourself, life, people can really serve you a barrage of adversity which then often falls onto already existing vulnerabilities incurred while growing up or other injuries incurred throughout life... which then get you to the point of feeling so overwhelmed that ending it seems like the only "solution"...).
      I also feel a lot of sympathy for Franck's character and the way that "Victor | Hector" approaches him when he finds him. I will admit though that a hearty chuckle rang out of my chest when hearing Franck's disgruntled complaint in the end "uh, it took me ages to tie that rope.... with my fucking hooves..." ROAR, too funny.... 😂😇. (but I'm not seeing him or anyone arriving in this place as "losers" or "cowards" or whatever else cruel judgements people are quick to issue.... Sometimes it simply gets too much to endure or overcome or cut through...a change of perspective can greatly help in that situation and sometimes has to come from "outside" . I agree that many of us would never have to get to this point of even considering it, if we all cared to treat each other just a tad bit nicer, where we can. And that doesn't even require big things, just doing without the constant competition and bias and admonition we so often come at each other with (myself included as much as it pains me to admit)
      I'd really love to see the story develop further from here so we might get to witness Franck's adventures and maybe transition and eventually and hopefully new insights earned and gained from those adventures in totally different worlds. I think it's a great story already and it'd be too bad if it couldn't find the resources to continue....

      I know it may sound cliche to say, friend, but try Jesus. He is much more than all we've just watched. He sees and understands the pain and promises eternal life with Him in a place far better than Frank could ever experience...the greatest part is, it's no short. It is a real eternal life with Jesus.
      In your quiet moments at night, look up toward Heaven and say this - Jesus! Are you there? I need you! I'm a sinner who is lost without a Savior. I feel good sometimes, but at times lost. I feel hope sometimes but often times hopeless.
      Jesus! I've heard about you. Please speak to me...
      My friend, He will. 😊

    This is what I wish adult and children's animation should be: atmospherical and immersive with beautiful stunning animation with original storytelling and most of all....passion put into it. Not desperate attemots to grab your child's attention every five seconds with loud and obnoxious noises and characters, not shock or juvenile humor to attempt to make a grown up laugh but pure immersive story telling. While sure this is just an experiment and the story is quite peculiar it certainly has more potential than most animation studios now and days.

      Maybe I'm wrong and maybe it's a cliche reveal, but the fact that frank turned into a different species during this first cycle, for me implicates that he will have many more cycles, since Victor states that he is an adventurer and clearly knows Frank from somewhere, also the "you're like me" dialogue. I can see it either being that Frank eventually ends up as human, and Victor is his son, or in some way or another, he ends up being Victor, both would go very well with the gooseberry analogy. A shedding of the shriveled old membrane to expose a vibrant orange haired berry.

      @laurel8831 Před 9 lety +15

      quasarpuffs Sure. But sharing reels and short films inspires people to use blender. It is the best way to advertise Blender - to call attention on it. The more people know blender the better. Because it is open source it increases the chance that more people help developing. Furthermore blender is free, so you can't really say other software is "better". It depends on the reason for using.
      I think it's just great to see what is already possible in Blender and the result can certainly compete with every other 3D software. Blender is the epitome of a never ending progress.

      Joshua Rage Oh, I think you might've misunderstood me. I wasn't trying to say that other software is better than Blender, just that- generally speaking- when software improves, it lets artists be more creative. And Blender has definitely improved a lot. Its gone from being a weird, largely-useless toy ten years ago, to a serious 3D creation tool today.

    • @BlooAlien
      @BlooAlien Před 9 lety +10

      quasarpuffs Actually, that "weird, largely-useless toy" was an in-house rendering program being quite heavily used by the folk who had access to it, and it was designed such that they could efficiently get 3D thrown together with a minimum of fuss compared to other programs of the era. It was also crazy mad customizable, so that each artist could basically turn it into THEIR perfect working environment. The problem was that MOST folk around that time could not wrap their brains around the concept of "customizable", let alone customizable interfaces. The other problem for a lotta folk was the interface worked best with one hand on the mouse and one hand working the hotkeys, but most folk seem to think the keyboard is only for cavemen to bash on (obsolete old tech) or for typing letters and Facebook posts.
      What has happened to that "wierd … toy" over the years is that they've streamlined and modernized the interface while still keeping EVERYTHING that made the original so epic and awesome, and they've continued to add NEW features and improve existing ones, too. Blender has surpassed by far the $2000 Lightwave3D that I used to use, and at this point I'll never switch back. If ever I throw a pile of money at a 3D program again, I'd rather donate it to the Blender Foundation.

      Bloo Alien I think I'm referring to an earlier time in blender's history than what you're talking about. It may have been longer than 10 years ago- I don't recall exactly- but the first time I used blender, it had an unusable joke of a renderer, almost no animation tools, almost no modeling tools, awful non-standard hotkeys, and no undo. It did have the snappy, customizable interface which I've always liked, but that's about it.
      After the foundation raised the money to take it open source though (I donated a large sum to that effort), it improved a lot, but only to a point. That's why they re-wrote it from scratch 5 years ago... But yeah, ever since then its been kicking ass. I use it for most of my work these days and hardly ever touch my old copies of Maya, LW, etc. that I paid through the nose for.

    This is what makes me proud to be a Blender user! When I saw this for the first time a while ago, I was blasted away by the animation, lighting, texturing, etc. It is so well animated!
    This short film proves that you don't need expensive software that cost you thousands of dollars to make animations with professional quality! Blender is (in my opinion) the best open-source project ever created!
