Hi everyone! We just wanted to show our latest Unreal Engine short film!! Made with Marketplace assets and Metahumans. We would love to hear what you think!
Funny, witty, gorgeous, and relatable are all words I would use to describe our two protagonists! You and your team did a fantastic job bringing life to these two metahumans, and I enjoyed every second of getting to know them.
I also LOVED the dungeons and dragons vibes I got from watching your animated short! Everything that could go wrong when raiding a hidden tomb did go wrong, and that’s just hilarious!
That was quite the KO “punch” from Renick; beautifully done! How long did it take you and your team to complete this creation in its entirety?
Hi! Im so glad you enjoyed it. You guessed absolutely correctly - this was actually based on our home dnd game. Im so happy that come through in the short!
So altogether, this took us a little over 2 weeks. Thankfully we had some great assets from the marketplace to speed things along a little. It took about a week to write, record and get the characters and locations together, then around another week to do all the shots and editing. Fun fact, this is actually a shorter edit of a slightly longer version we released.
We learnt so much while making this, and it has been great seeing peoples response. So much so, that we are planning on making two new ongoing series starring Skyden and Wrenick (made in unreal 5.1) in the coming weeks. (I’ll post some pics as we progress) In the meantime, if you wanna see the longer version (as well as a follow-up episode) you can find us on https://www.youtube.com/@skydenandwrenick). I’d love to hear what you think of the second short.
Thank you for the kind words
Hello again, @Wrenick; I am a HUGE fan of Skyden and Wrenick! They are the ultimate comedy duo, and their chemistry is perfect! I can only imagine how fun it is being in the driver’s seat of these two characters during your home DND sessions.
I excitedly watched the extended cut of “The Lost Tomb” and “The Shortcut” and was thoroughly pleased by both the animations/plots! Fergus was an excellent addition and had me chuckling for quite some time. It is so impressive that you created such a beautiful cinematic in just two weeks, and I eagerly await to see what comes next. With that said, I’ve already subbed to your channel with notifications on; keep up the fantastic work!
Great work!
