I am pleased to announce that we are delaying the release date of our Gears of War short “Antipathy”.  Why am I pleased?  What could possibly be so wrong with me that I could be happy about this travesty? Because it will make the film a gabillion times better that’s why!

First of all I need to thank everyone for their helpful comments on the plethora of blogs, forums, websites, etc that Antipathy was promoted.  99% of the comments have been very positive and I would just like to say that I, the creator, feed off of this.  It really helps keep you motivated, so huge thanks there.  Of course this is somewhat of a double edged sword as it made me really analyze the film under the proverbial microscope.  So what am I doing?


First: I am totally redoing the opening sequence, adding entire scenes that will help the viewer get a much clearer idea of what is going on.


Second: I don’t want to say too much here but I am creating a system that will allow me to demolish a city in unreal.


Third: I am totally redoing the fight scene and ending. One of the biggest criticisms I got (and maybe rightfully so) was about the locust ninja.  So I will tone that down a bit and make it closer to GoW reality.  And for those of you asking about why there are no guns, there is a def a reason why they don’t use guns.


Four: Adding dialog. This will be difficult and will require me to rig each COG head with facefx.  In addition I will have to use suitable voices for the characters.

I will also be releasing another trailer as we get a little bit closer to the release date.  That’s about it, thanks again for your support and I will keep you all updated as to my progress.


ps – yes Marcus IS in the film

its OK Marcus...
