  • Hey there! My name is Lukas Bannink, and I make films in my spare time. I did all the modelling, animation and soundtrack all by myself, so be sure to let me know which parts I should improve in the comments!
    I'm already working on the next film, so subscribe if you want to see more in the future!

    Was it weird to cry for the little metal chicken when it got injured? Was it weird to cry at the end when it got fixed and met up with all of it's friends? I don't care! I loved it! Amazing story that needed no words.

    This was a wonderful short film. For all that you made it in your spare time, you were able to imbue the little robot with such character, that I really felt for it. I was almost begging for it to be picked up, fixed and re-energised towards the end. When i see so many of these shorts and feel barely invested in the fates of human characters, this was a delight! Keep honing your skills, for even if your film-making never gets past the spare time phase, you are still bringing joy to those who get to see them!

This is an excellent piece of work for someone who does it in his 'spare time'. You should market yourself and do this professionally. It is a great story that through the animation evokes sadness and ...at the end, joy, thank you so much for sharing your talented work....now I want to see more.

      I presumed, from the ending, that it was a reject planet, that was in the first stages of a survivors' rebellion. Of course, that may well have been only my own projection. I got the impression that the chicken robot was scrapped onto the planet, where it survived the crash. Others similarly disposed of did not survive, but the shamanistic robot apparently has some alternative source of energy to save some of the survivors ... which could eventually lead them to rebel against the planet being used to dump robots on ???

    I think the film is nice but it would be more powerful if the viewer was given more time to gain affection for the main character. Like, could you find a way to communicate that the main robot is an innocent, likeable robot?

    Initially the little bot was frightened by the taller image of a man? A very real threat! The other bots demise was the same thing-ran out of power? Once installed with the magic power up they gravitated towards this taller bot to do homage.
    The tall bot carried a standard of double headed eagle. Obviously intimidating.

    I liked the design of the animation and the music pulled it all together. I'm surprised that most comments felt that the ending showed compassion by the caped robot.

    Can I assume in the story line this little robot some how has consciousness and has some aspects of sentience?
    As it appear to at least mimic and act as if experiencing fear, anxiety and disappointment. It might be something that could be looked at in later endeavor for a pt2 if your so inclined.
    one other comment with out trying to sound super critical even with what appeared to be metallic flooring the little bots center of gravity with out it foot pad would affect it movements as to create a off balance limp at the very least.

    Do you work solely in animation?
    The music was appropriate, and with all the progressive and New Age music available now I think you could expand the impact greatly with slightly more complex music that can bolster the emotion and attachment you are evoking in the viewer.
    Most excellent!

Hope you will find a studio to do your internship and learn even more however your one man show is really remarkable...continue your love for making shorts with robots or other animation characters. Nowadays with social media you will succeed easier than days of old when the studios controlled productions. your keen attention to details, creativity, resourcefulness, diligence persistence patience will pay off in a big time within the next 2 yrs...your lucky break is on its way so best of luck and keep making clips having fun along the way...thanks for this clip...

    I love this little film, and I hope you will make many more, subscribed! Unlike a lot of shorts, it was well-lit and pleasingly colourful despite the ominous storyline - I didn't have to struggle to see what was going on. The music was neither under- nor over-whelming and, cleverly, gave no clue (to me) of where the story was going or how it might end - it didn't tell me what to think, which makes a nice change. The robot chickens were brilliant and I love the way they angled their heads to understand better what they were seeing - very nice touch. Good to watch a short which contained pathos and humour, and escaped the cliché of a depressing ending. For me though, there were too many 'black cuts' (I don't know what to call them) - I'm not sure what you were intending to achieve with them, and certainly the one with the film's title and the ending one were too long, leading me to feel a little frustrated. There was also one scene in which the sand was blowing right to left, but the tall character's robe was billowing out from left to right... as a writer myself, I know it's always a good idea to let someone else read or watch one's work to check for illogicalities! Great stuff Lukas, it's a little gem :-)

    I had to watch it at 1.25 speed. It was too slow for me. The blurred opening was perfect for the first scene, as he was waking upon crashing. Also perfect for after receiving the power gem and waking again. All other blurry scene openings made no sense.
    I didn't understand the scene on the ship where seemingly random stuff was dropped into the pod before being shot. My first thought was it's in a metal refinery and that was a crucible. I expected the rando metal things to be melted down and poured out. Maybe clarify where (ship) and what (pod) in this scene.
    Upon finding a figure in the distance, his first inclination is to run? Run away from his pod? This doesn't make sense. Probes are to compile as much info as possible. Finding and inspecting. Even if it's programmed to not approach, wtf would it run?

    Well done. Just a few comments:
    Music should end not terminate i.e. Listen to your opening sequence and how abrupt the cutting of the music makes the scene abrupt. Close the music well, bring it to a conclusion.
    Focus is an effective tool but it must be used sparingly, it shouldn't be noticed.
    SloMo is also an effective tool but again it must be used with consideration of plot development. Try the tripping over the rock and losing a foot scene as a montage of stills.( 4 or 5 images, Max 1 to 2 seconds each)
    Keep going.

      Well said William. It seems, according to Celibidache, the finest conductor of the 20th century, you are completely right about the music. He stated that the music should ALWAYS end the way it is started. (Please see Ravels' Bolero conducted by Celibidache c. 1971).
