Hi! Great animation. Excellent musical accompaniment. The plot and the action keep the viewer in suspense.

1st) You respected the Source Material! This felt like a natural extension of The Thing. 2nd) You Absolutly captured the Atmosphere with Up close angles & sound fx. I actually felt tension, which is hard to make someone feel. 3rd) The Green Screen was so well done! Bravo!

Please note that any information is available in the description. To enjoy the video in its best form lower your brightness down to around less than 25% and use headphones.

As a fool who has never watched The Thing, I found this to be very well made. One thing that especially stood out to me was the lighting. It looked fantastic!

This was amazing! So glad this came up on recommend. Amazing job with the story felt like a sequel to the original Thing movie. 🙌

Thanks so much. The flamethrower effect was done using gun movie fx and the ‘silencer’ presets. I’ll have a behind the scenes up eventually so that’ll hopefully answer a lot of your questions.

Hey this is dope! Great work. I recently got inspired watching some Stop Motion animation and went down a rabbit hole I’m still in after watching ‘Mad God’. Love the effort you’ve put in all round from the lighting, dialogue music and fx, very creative. I’m a fan of your work 🔥

Thanks. Stop motion is a massive genre with many sub and micro and nano sub genres. This is a micro sub genre as it’s relativity popular (mega construx I mean) but still very very unknown. If you want to get more into stop motion you can watch my ultimate stop motion inspiration playlist and or you can watch some documentaries on it (although those are generally centered around old or well known/documented uses of stop motion Ex: Robocop)

@InsideOutBeats

Thanks I’ll check out the playlist. I’ve been checking some of the creepy horror type of stop motion as it inspires my beats but want to explore the full range out there. I’d never heard of mega construx before today so plenty to delve into.

The atmosphere was spot on. I was looking forward most of all to seeing the transformation scene for the thing, and godamn did you deliver! So visceral 😵 Fantastic work dude - well worth the wait 🔥

It took me about a year from coming up with the story mentally to actually finishing it but from the point of writing the script it took me about probably 10-11 months.

Absolutely amazing work Rapid! Excellent set design, spot on effects, awesomely smooth animation, love the sound design, and a very immersive and great story plot. Very impressive! You just keep getting better and better! I do apologize for missing the premiere, but I will definitely be rewatching this film again and again!

Dude this was sick. The slow tension build up was amazing and my eyes were glued to the screen the whole time. The atmosphere, set pieces, lighting, voice acting, done really well. The only minor nitpick is when they’re talking in the helicopter, it was a little hard to hear their lines because of the helicopter being so loud, but besides that, this was really really great. This might be your best video yet, its hard to choose between this and Atlas

Thanks so much for picking up on that stuff. I personally think this is my best work as it was the most technically challenging and I feel like I massively innovated and improved upon my own skills. I do agree that there were problems like that (ex: audio not being there or being misbalanced) but it was due to the chaos of my organization in the editor and also the fact that by the time I got to sfx I was sick of editing and just had barely enough energy to finish it. Appreciate the continued support Willstar. Stay tuned for the behind the scenes in a few months!

That was dope you had really good Special effects in your scenes from fire to weapons & explosions that made me feel as if I was there in the Syfy. This movie had good actors with cool voices making listening to them talking was more interesting like you all ways do pretty good with that. Most of the lighting was good light but at point got really dark then got better. I love how made your sets it took to that world good editing & background it was good I will definitely be watching it again & again like the Alien movie you made

@@donaldsimmons4259Thank you. In terms of lighting it was designed to be dark to add atmosphere and to be more cinematographic. Additionally the original film was like that. Potentially if you don’t like how dark it got simply increase your brightness as it was designed for less than 25% phone brightness but if you don’t like that just raise it.

Is it like they would have found the remains of the base from the first movie or is this just a whole different story. Either way great film. But can someone answer my question I said at the beginning of the comment

@RapidActionAnimations

2 ай бұрын

Thanks for the comment. To answer you question. The events happened during the storm. To clarify, I mean Carpenter film (as in everything there) happened during the storm that you saw in my film. So they contacted them from Outpost 31 asking for maintenance help and then a storm cut them off. So through that time everything happened and the American base I made never heard anything (outpost 32). They then arrived and the events ensued. So it’s partially during the same time and partially after. Hope that helps. I’ll eventually make a behind the scenes if I stop procrastinating and I’ll explain all that there.

The animation and the green screen effects are really good and I’m still wondering how long it took for you to make this

Incredible film! Just have a question or two. So the thing killed/replicated the dude on the repair trip, then broke into the other guys office, and assimilated him before the others got there, correct? Can the thing impersonate two ppl at once? Also, why did the guy flame thrower the science dude and his buddy? Great film, lighting, sound, and set!! Thanks for this awesome animation!

@RapidActionAnimations

10 ай бұрын

So Dale (the person who went to outpost 31) was infected and he returned. He attempted to infect Saul (the guy in the office) but failed due to Saul having his firearm with him. Offscreen after Emma’s speech he was infected at some point. I have the whole infection timeline which I might include in the behind the scenes when I make that. The flamethrower on the scientists was due to them being sprayed by biomass which would result in infection due to the single cellular infection lore from the original film (it’s a controversial piece of lore but generally that amount of cells would cause that). The thing infects a person by ripping through that persons clothing which then results in them being infected and converted. The explanation for it however is complicated. Try searching that up online or on KZread for more information. I hope this helped.
