This is a realistic style CG project based on the Unreal Engine that transplants the science fiction setting of the ‘Alien’ series into the Song Dynasty in China. The script is entirely original and the plot is purely fictional, centered around the three years when the famous Northern Song Dynasty statesman Bao Zheng served in Zhaoqing’s Duanzhou. It attempts to tell some anecdotes and folk legends from a science fiction perspective.
This work is not intended for commercial use and was crafted by a small team during our spare time, taking over seven months to complete. It is meant for sharing and learning among enthusiasts. The fonts, music, sound effects, and some 3D model assets used in the film are not original but were sourced from paid or free resources available on the internet.
Creating this piece was no small feat, and we genuinely hope that you can offer us more encouragement with an open and supportive mindset, helping us go even further. Thank you!
Incredible, incredible, incredible! " Alien in Song Dynasty" was a beautifully made, captivating cinematic thriller, and I enjoyed every second of it! You and your team (is your studio called Genie Eye?) did a fantastic job with this short film in all aspects imaginable. Every detail was impeccable, and my sole critique is that it concluded on a cliffhanger, leaving me in suspense.
It’s so generous of you! Your comments encourage us to carry on!
Yes, our team is called “Genie eye”,please follow us on Youtube and give us some suggestions.
