Prey Alone

Amr-3DT · 24-04-2005, 02:19 AM

Prey Alone, a 15-minute live-action short directed by Stephen St. Leger & James Mather. Shot entirely against green screen, the short film sports 350 visual effects shots, all independantly produced by a few guys from Ireland.

This is something so ingenious you shouldn't miss. If your internet connection isn't fast enough to download the short film, I suggest you find a friend who can grab it for you. It is quite inspiring how a small group of people could've achieved such high-level of production quality.

This film has been making a buzz for a while, but the server hosting it kept falling apart, things are better now with a new host.

Same links. Getting the REFFERER error as well..but perhaps someone has it on fileshare =)

I had same error. Try switching browser. Firefox didn´t let me download, but Explorer had no problems.

Very, very nice movie. a bit cliche stroy, but the quality of photography and vfx just brilliant. Someone had to make long hours to accomplish this one.

remco_t · 24-04-2005, 10:27 PM

I also had the same error, but when I tried downloading from http://www.jonny3d.com/html/__main.htm it worked fine for me, while using Firefox

Xterz · 24-04-2005, 10:37 PM

Rite about the end of movie, there is a flash with just one word, didn't quite catch it.
My guesses: One, Game...
Been using Adobe Premiere's mega step by step method and it just froze rite before the flash...
Did any1 bother to pay attention?
Can any1 tell me the word?

Xterz · 24-04-2005, 10:39 PM

Damn it...Got it
its Game, and then Over
Game Over

amazing... just...amazing!

chipnuts · 25-04-2005, 02:40 AM

If you have problems clicking the link with firefox (it was the browser I used to download the movie), right click the link and go to properties, when the properties box comes up, highlight all the text in the address line and then copy/paste into your address bar.

There seemed to be an issue with links that aren't fully shown in the post itself.

Hope this helps!
