Hey Ryan, This is Brett. I think the film is going to be absolutely wonderful, and I cannot wait to work on it. I am very much looking forward to working with you. Thank you for giving me the oppurtunity to be in it. I loved the CG work in the teaser.

The CG was good but there's still one hurdle you have to get over and that's making the CG not look so... CG. It's like going from a movie to a cartoon then back to a movie again. There is software out there that will help make your animations look more realistic by applying a "film grain" to them and that's what your graphics look like they need. The graphics actually look okay from a distance it's when the camera goes in for close-up's that you can tell something's weird.... What 3d software are you using?

Thank you for the comments. This is not a trailer, it is a teaser. It is meant to give just a glimps of the film. The series is live action with plenty of CGI work. Some shots will be all CGI, some with be enhanced through digital effects wizardry! The lovely thing about Blade Runner is the visuals, and we're busting our humps to make the visuals intense, textured, and dynamic. The moods the lighting can invoke, and the dark and gritty presence of the city and the characters are all very important to us. The themes that were central to the feature film are there, but we do not want to retell the same story either. Instead of Los Angeles, it takes place in MetroTampa: 2019. The plot is basically this: Two Blade Runners working on an important case have an inspector from internal affairs following them around. They have to justify the way they handle the replicant problem, and justify their own jobs.... That's about all the plot I can give away without ruining the story. There are several other plot lines and they are all interesting. We're trying to make the stories live in the Blade Runner world without being the same stories already told, and without retreading the same themes touched upon in the film, and the books. The series will have a dedicated website fairly soon, where you'll be able to view the episodes once completed, and also check out behind the scenes video, and TONS of photos, artwork, storyboards and the like. It'll be a loaded site. It's a fan film, and we'll be posting everything on the site we'd like to see as a fan. Blade Runner Chronicles is going to be the culmination of lots of work and dedication by many fans.
