That's exciting indeed!!

"We need entertainment more than ever now."
Hum, all there is is entertainment nowadays. We need meaningful art that allows people to think by themselves, be creative, live a better life, not more dumb entertainment that transform people into manipulated sheeps who can't read a book or watch a real film anymore.
Nice shorts though. Not easy to do!

Good idea! I'll think about something. I wouldn't call it dark times though. The pollution is dropping down, animals are not hunted, there are more fishes in the ocean, less noise, people can take the time to appreciate life without work and read, write, watch films, paint, train, do whatever they want (well except traveling). We can now see how too connected our world is, we can see the economic and social problems of our societies more easily and act on them. I think the virus is a chance to make a world better, more social, with less but more real human contacts, less based on money and economy (now that we understand that it will fail anyway cause be sure there will be more viruses and pandemies the next years). Also, cinema wise, it's a good chance to write or study films. I've been myself finishing the last version of a script that I began about 7 years ago (I've been doing a week without VOD and video games too).

NO that's not fascism. At all.

Interesting try. Remaking scenes allow us to understand how those scenes were shot. And it's often less simple that it seems. The main problem for me is the kind of halo around the ape suit. It's weird. Is it because of the slow motion?

That's quite a story and a long journey! Although I'm definitely not convinced by the (very long) trailer, I like how you manage to learn everything on the go. You must have a strong mental for that, many people would have stopped before the end. I agree with what you say about technology. But I feel that films now are a lot about tech and not much about art at all. Your film looks like any easily forgotten Netflix film. It might be entertaining like some Hollywood craps, but puzzles and rubik's cube are entertaining too. Making a film is one (beautiful) thing, getting the film "out there" is another story. Well you could sell the film to Netflix or something similar i guess.
A few questions: do you know how much money you spend? Did the whole budget come from your own pockets? Did you create a production company for the film? Did you pay everybody, with contracts, etc?
For me that's the hard part. Learning color grading and sound is the fun part, no problem. Learning all the legal stuffs is not fun at all.
