- Echoes is an animated short film telling a music driven journey through space and time, following a mysterious wanderer who's looking for the most quiet place in the universe.
The film have mostly been produced using After Effects and was an opportunity for me to experiment a one man adventure into producing my very own animated short film. I hope you'll enjoy this short journey as much as I loved creating it and that it will offer you a little peaceful and quiet moment.
The music was an essential piece of the project and occurred as the first step into this film production journey. You can find more tracks related to this journey on my soundcloud (link below) to continue the quest.

This was truly intriguing. The ending was not expected but welcomed. Well done an award winning piece.
Thank you so much!
Well, I haven't a clue what it was about, but it looked to be very well done.
It's about escapism
The soundtrack is amazing and the immersion perfect!
The perfect emulation of how a soundtrack reverbes on our imagination.
That couldn't make me happier, thanks so much for watching and sharing those kind words!
While I never got the feeling he was "looking for the most quiet place in the universe", the audio and visuals were very well done, and compelling. I hope to see more of your work 'in the future'... :)
Agreed on both counts..The Vacuum of space is already extremely quiet..So while I respect the artist's choosing their own title, for me it works if I mentally substitute "the most peaceful place in the universe"...an inherently personal (subjective &based on one's mind's state) framing rather than "the most quiet" but as you said the images and music were really creative and beautiful.
I took it another way. That the music took HIM on that journey. It did me!
The journey within. Exploration of mind, spirit and soul.
Beautifully put together. The image at 2:32 is particularly awesome. Not the only one. The pace and taste of the music score is most welcome from too many Sci-Fi shorts and films being saturated with hyper-bombastic noise.
Thank you so much for the awesome kind words, I'm so happy you liked the score and the pace of the film. Seems like it's a bit dividing but I'm glad when someone's getting what's the intent was without feeling like they wasted time watching. At the end it's just an attempt to offer a peaceful moment in space, listening to soothing melodies and enjoying some carefully crafted visuals. I'm grateful if you got that. Thanks!
Wow, love the composition in every single shot. This is beautiful
Thanks so much, means a lot to me as it's one of the thing I enjoy the most in the process.
Dude knows how tell a story. That's all matters.
So Many fond memories of this FIlm Martial.
Hey Heath! Thanks man yeah that was a real blast! Can't wait to jump back in with you!
Makes me think alot about when I play no man's sky... Endless sight seeing and searching for planets to construct your base on. That tree is my goal to achieve, the beauty with happiness I seek, yet the trek there takes hours even days and then you snap back to reality and realize... You now have to build the darned thing :)
Wow! The soundtrack and the visuals 😍
Thanks so much, happy you like it!
Beautiful. The cinematography, art style, and the music blended so well together. Storytelling without the dialogue had me right at the start and kept me there all the way. Nicely done. ♪
Thank you so so much. Everything you say makes me so happy, glad you had a nice moment watching it.
When I first saw the title I thought it was going to be an animation to Pink Floyds Echoes, from the album Meddle, so it was a bit of a surprise that it was different to what I was expecting, Well filmed and great sound track.
Loved how the beat went with the footsteps
Eheh thanks for spotting it, happy you liked it!
Beautiful and inspirational work as always Martial. You are a sorcerer.
Thanks so much Daryl! :D
Je suis fasciné par ton travail ! Bravo 😳
Merci infiniment!
My heart beat syncs to this beat as I perform my healings. Yes, this has become my "Healing Tune". Thank You Martial!
Oh thank you for adopting it and giving it a whole new dimension. So glad it can serve as something like that, I would never imagine, thank you!
Excellent work ! I love how you captured the emotion and mental pattern of imagination through the looking glass. Bravo !!
Thank you so much, so motiviating to hear! Have a great day!
Amazing work here! Lovely animation, art direction and sound/music. Congrats!
Thanks so much for the awesome support, it means a lot!
No words to explain this beautiful work 🙏
A thousand thank you, so happy you enjoyed it that much, have a great day!
Fantastic work!! Love the vibe and mysterious story line.
Thank you, happy you enjoy this mood and the journey!
Intriguing. Thanks for posting!!!
I'll be scratching my old head wondering what that was all about for a couple days now
If Johnny bravo had a leaner brother that's him in this.
I loooove the pads and reverbssss and music.
After watching this x2. It shows the spacecraft's plural flying in space twice. Once on a picture on his desk in his mother ship and once more when he walking on the earth.
Now to me if I were try to figure out some story believe I enjoyed this regardless but there must be a deeper meaning to this bit other than for some cool creative scenerios/shots and good music.
If those spaceshifts that looked like shooting stars were key to this animated film. I think those were like him the first humans to populate planet earth. In other words he found out that everyone was going to earth and he got right to it and dipped and found first piece of land which he wanted when he arrived.
Orrrrr
The end in his room with rain and his desk and coffee and building in background which suggests modern day. He is simply day dreaming of some cool stuff.
Either way dope film!
Perfect work
Absolutely fantastic. Imagine I could do this lol
Incredible work, you deserve more subscribers.
Ahah thanks, I'm already quite happy if a bunch of people can see the film and have a nice quiet moment. Thanks for the support and kind words!

Thanks you!
Un travail juste magnifique dans tous les aspects! Grand bravo! 👏
Merci infiniment!
I have never understood animation films where the pilot ship lands on the other side of the planet, then the explorer ship travels several more days only to have the character WALK seemingly forever to get to their destination
A great production all around loved it the music was exceptional
Waow thanks so much, I'm so happy you like the music so much. Many thanks!
support
DMT micro dose? 🤔

Inspirational !
What an incredibly nice and satisfying word to hear about it, probably the best one I could hope for, thank you so much!
Seems like he could have landed closer to the tree but I get the point of tying in the adventure to the music.
Bravo et merci, c'est exactement ce qu'il me fallait aujourd'hui ❤
Merci beaucoup, c'est exactement le sentiment que j'espère apporter avec ce film, offrir un court moment de calme et de quiétude :)
So good
Thanks!
I just lost 5 minutes of my life,.... well presented, I hope you find a direction, you are quite talented.
Superb visuals.
Many thanks!
Sweet. I want this remixed so it's 20 minutes long.
Ahah well, might be a bit long for such a quiet piece, but it would be cool to explore some deeper stuff in a longer piece for sure.
Nice Trip.
You got it! Thanks so much for watching and have a great day!
Intense and mesmerizing soundtrack. Where did you get it? Found it!
Thanks, sorry for the late reply. Just in case to answer you question, I did compose a bunch of tracks to illustrate this journey and helping me creating the whole film as a foundation, there's a selection of them on my soundcloud and you can find the link in the description if you're interested in giving a listen, but seems like you already found it. Many thanks!
Excellent - animation style and ambience reminds me of Samurai Jack or 'Guerrillas" music/vids. More pls...
Thanks so much! Yeah more in on the way for sure!
This was an awesome film.
And thanks so much for this awesome comment, it's really motivating and much appreciated!
Wonderful work.
Thanks!
Wonderful! I've felt that way... and did so again listening to this soundtrack.
What's the aspect ratio? I really liked it.
Sharing!
Hi, thanks so much for the kind words, it's much appreciated and I'm happy you had a nice moment watching the film and listening the soundtrack, thanks for giving it a shot it really means the world to me. The aspect ratio of the film is 2.35, classic cinema ratio that is pretty rare in animation actually. Always thought it looks nice.
@@martialcoulon18 It looks great!
Was there some point to that? I want my time back.
These depliced " Echoes " are the same creative design thinking that makes innovations real... Part of our true instincts is that contemplation
Thanks a lot for that, happy you enjoyed the film, thanks for taking the time to watch and support!
2:04 Beau et romantique à souhait.
Merci infiniment !
Just watched this, I'm still trying to decide which came first with this project,eg:was the music composed for this film,or was the film developed for the tune,they both work so well together,if you know what I mean, brilliant
I'm so pleased about your comment as this was one of the main objective in developping this film. You couldn't make me happier. For the record, while sketching some visual and narrative ideas for the film I mostly worked on some muscial pieces to define the mood, pace and feeling of the journey I wanted to depict, and then it evolved in parallel for a while until it came to a point where the visuals were the main focus. Of course at the end there have been some tweaks to polish the whole thing as much as possible. Thanks!
C’est géant!!!!
Merci beaucoup!
Really Great Work 😎New Subscriber
Thanks so much!
Beautiful. Thank you. subbed/likie
Thank you for watching and supporting, that is really appreciated!
Every time I see A bonsai tree, I think of woody Harelson on the show “cheers“ when he said he was watching this program about these giant people. 😂💦. Loved your work. Beautiful
Ahahah, thanks for the reference! And thanks for watching and for the kind words, it's much appreciated!
@@martialcoulon18 I know you don’t have time to respond to everything so I am humbled by your response. Thank you. And so, to push my luck, I was wondering if you were planning on a full feature?
Addendum ……… I just got back from your portfolio and just WOW Your mother must be very proud. 😳😳👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I would be the first subscribe if you ever started a you tube channel. I bet you would have not trouble getting funding for projects via patreon or simply millions of views. It would be life changing for you on this platform I believe 🤷🏼♀️. Find your message, whether it just be having fun and entertaining or if you have a deeper more philosophical message you would like to get out OR BOTH!! I predict it would blow up on here. 🙆🏻🤯🙂
Awesome work ...I subscribed your channel ...
Awesome thanks!
Very cool! It's must be in LoveDeathAndRobots series.
Ahah, nice to hear. I actually worked on some episodes :)
Very, very, very nice …
Thank you!
What a bundle of laughs he turned out to be...not. 🤭
Thanks for uploading.
Piękne!
Dziękuję bardzo!
Ending, Akashic Record.
All that walks are for a bonsai?
What synth do u use?
Hey, thanks a lot for the support I'm glad you like the soundtrack, it was the whole starting point and main idea behind the film in order to offer a musical journey illustrated with peaceful and soothing visuals and narrative elements, so I'm really pleased when it resonnate with people, thanks so much! Hard to say exactly what synth I used as its a big mix of lots of things, from samples to various digital synths. What I can say though is that I created it using Maschine, with a bunch of Native instruments awesome vst and synth among other personnal recordings. Hope it helps a bit. Thanks again for your kind words and have a nice day!
I don't get it. Looks great. Excellent music. But, I don't get it.

SO THIS IS A STORY ABOUT A MAN LIVING A BORING LIFE IN THE CITY....HE HAS A GOOD JOB THAT ALLOWS HIM TO BUY STUFF THAT HELP HIM DREAM ABOUT A LIFE IN THE STARS .......BASICALLY EVERYONE DOES THIS SOMETIMES
Audio & visual to marks. Without preamble.... inconclusive.
The whole thing was preamble.

Par soutien pour l'animation française je m'abonne.
Merci à vous! J'espère que vous avez apprécié le film.

Why didn’t he just fly there?
Ага при таких технологиях и не приземлиться там где нужно ,смысл этой прогулки?
Easy on the weed dude
No need for that.
😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍💣💣💣💣
Uh. Ok.
I did like it though.
..... help me find an also lovely animation movie with an old man, a piano, a woman with a kid.....
ههه
٧ه
At the end of the day this is just some pretend playstation £$%", why is it recod too me???
All these SCI FI shorts are is an exercise in cartooning or special effects with NO STORY! Blah.
Too much talking
Sorry did not resonate with me.
Fancy graphics, no narrative. IMHO Kind of Boeing.
Pointless.
What a waste of time and data
🟦... The device released from the ship just after 2:59 is absurd, it has flame propelling it Forward but not a CLUE as to what's keep'n it in the AIR!... Ridiculous!
