Appreciate the support! When we began filming, I had no idea New Mexico had these locations either. It really was like stepping into another world. We had a great cast and crew and I thoroughly enjoyed my time with everyone. Thanks again for watching our fan film and we are excited to see what's next!
Well this fan film deserves to be on physical media like VHS, Beta Max, DVD, HD DVD, Blu Ray, and D theater.
@@gamepad3173 Beta Max brings back some memories. Got to love nostalgia. Hope all is well.
@@gamepad3173if this fan film were to come out physically, it would be on only three formats. DVD, Blu-ray, and 4K Blu-ray. Some of the formats like VHS, Betamax, HD-DVD and so on unrelated to these formats are not a possibility to be in those formats since:
1. No one has the proprietary hardware to watch it in one of these formats.
2. They’re considered dead formats at this point.
@jordanmillraney5481 Hey. I've got both VHS and HD-DVD players, so stop being an old technophobe or is it technoracist?😮😂
3 minutes in and I totally recognized the filming location as Bisti, NM. Only place in the world like it!
FANTASTIC. Fan made Starwars more authentic than Disney Starwars.
Lmao you’re joking right 😂😂 I thought this was a porno for a second
@@duckonquack5337Your watching too many of it, you have lost the ability to distinct the difference.
Ahsoka and Maul are perfect foils for each other
That Maul horn must be worth lots of credits 😅
This was amazing. Watching it you could just feel the love and caring going in to the production. Everything was so well done, costumes, makeup, action, dialog, story telling such a good mix. I really want to see a follow up with the little Dathamrian girl continuing her journey.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Same! I didn't want it to end! Very well done and I was so happy to see the dialogue between Maul and Lady Tano again. :)
Standing ovation! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 The antagonist was phenomenal. The protagonist was spectacular. Chef's kiss. 🤌🏻
I just love the idea of a force sensitive nightsister. Good work💖
I love CGI focused fan films, especially ones with good effects. Great work!!
Was at the filming in San Lorenzo Canyon and at the premiere last night. So wonderful to see the finished film and meet you! Great short , hope it gets picked up for a feature film! Thank you Brent and everyone ❤
Awesome! Thank you!
I was at the premiere at Cinema Rendezvous, this was awesome to see on the big screen along with the other films. I hope to one day be involved in the New Mexico movie scene!
This was brilliant. Very charming. That little girl has amazing acting talents. She was very believable. Loved Maul and Ahsoka too. They really got into their characters.
Beautiful work everyone, that location is epic.
This feels a lot like clone wars. I love this!
as a Darth Maul Fanatic, this makes me so happy! amazing work!! I loved both costumes for Ahsoka and Maul! very believable story, would love to see where it goes.
Love to hear this! Great effort was put into getting not only the costumes right, but the script and story so that it fit's in seamlessly to Star Wars canon, including The Clone Wars and Rebels (at the time of its release).
@AntigravityFilmsABQ Now for the next part you need to make Ahsoka run from somthing dangerous that Maul hinted in rebels for the next part...lol
Love the film and it’s always nice to see darth maul!
I was skeptical at the beginning but it got really good from the middle. Great writing, costume, and acting.
Proud to be the 500th like! We’re finishing up a Star Wars fan film ourselves. We’re so close!
Well done on your fan film!
Thank you! Good luck on yours. Can't wait to see it!
Really impressive. I was completely pulled into it I want to know the rest of the story!
This was actually pretty good. I like the deflector shield on the weapon.
Absolutely Fantastic. Much better plot development than what the mouse has been putting out. This would fit into the Legends (real SW) cannon like a glove!
As a massive clone wars and rebels fan I was greatly disappointed by the "official" Ahsoka show. This is the live action Ahsoka I invisioned this is one of the best fan films I've ever seen.
Absolutely incredible. The production alone was superb and the rest was just a bonus. Kudos guys, great job.
Fantastic
Very impressive, Dax. You are amazing.
Wow! In my opinion, the acting was on point, the set was perfect, and the effects were stellar! I got so sucked into the plot and I also kept thinking of how fun that project must have been to be a part of! Very well done!
This was great! A lot of love went into this fan film.
Damn! You guys put in a lot of work with this!!! I want you to rise up in views and get credit!!
This has got to be the most underrated Star Wars fan films ever. The acting, props, story, cgi, and characters! It's all perfect. All of this and it adds a live action Darth maul vs Ahsoka, it's the perfect fan film. I couldn't ask for more. I liked and definitely subscribed!
This is a really compelling story a nightsister being trained by ahsoka would be hella cool
A really successful film! It was incredibly fun to watch.🤩😍
So proud of all the great effort that went into this! everyone should be proud. My favorites were the script and Brent as Darth Maul.
Well done my friend is still very in enjoying you all. Do a great job.
Three things...
1. I am the 69th like. KNEEL BEFORE ME 😤
2. That planet flip transition was sick!
3. When the dearly distinguished gentleman with the earring walked out I realized that YOU GUYS were responsible for that image going around and everyone thinking it was a lucasfilm set leak!!!
Anyway this was awesome nice job guys!
Ha ha, yeah that was us! I replied on Reddit that it was us, but by that time, it had already gone viral. I don’t even know who posted the photo. One of dozens of hikers that came through the area while we were shooting.
@@AntigravityFilmsABQ oh my god lol that is awesome. Will a behind the scenes video be dropping soon. I think for me a star wars fan film is on the road map for me so I'm curious to see what you guys were going through!
Yes! Check out my other videos. I have several BTS featurettes including creature creation and ADR. The one about Creature Creation talks about being mistaken for Disney+.
Amazing work, mate. This film was just incredible
Hey there! I wanted to let you know that I think the word incredible was accidentally autocorrected. Incredulous is not what you meant to type I'm sure because it has a negative meaning and you seem to have meant to give a positive feeling comment. :) Thought you'd want to know.
@@ralathasnir4987 oh, yeah, thank you
@@ralathasnir4987 you’re very kind. I have looked it up and edited it. Thank you, kindly
@@vexed_684 Any time😊 Have a good one!!
I LOVE the character development ark for Maul in this!
Wow. Really great work. Love this.
This film had a great storyline can't wait to see you guys continue it.
I thoroughly enjoyed that, thank you! I don't know Stephen personally, but me and his wife Cassie were in film classes together in college!
I saw this last night at the premiere screening. Good stuff guys! I'll be looking forward to your next projects. Maybe even try to get involved some day. Good luck to you all!
Wonderful to hear. Great to have you out to the premiere in person!
OOOOOOH! WOW! goooood! Keep up the great work. I look forward to their meeting by you folks too!
Wow, that's NOT the original Darth Maul?! This is one of the most professional looking fan-films I have seen! Keep up the good work!
Wow!! Amazing!! Great work!
This was great I enjoyed it Keep up the good work !!!
This would make a phenomenal TV series! I hope Disney see this.
I don’t hope Disney sees this. They gonna try to sue 💀
Disney would just mess it up
So good and then bad thoughts on the short film. So good stuff first. You guys made a good storyline. I liked what you made in that two people were trying to help those who were young and strong in the Force. Pretty good job on most of the costumes and I liked how many species you guys had. Props for even making the blue skinned bounty hunter have eyes that blinked. it was a good small detail. You guys also had some pretty neat cgi animation and effects. The ship, hologram, and nightsister magic was really cool and I liked seeing it! Well done on that.
Also, the whole turning the lightsaber off every time Maul tried to turn it was absolutely hilarious. That really me laugh! XD
Bad stuff. I struggled with the fighting choreography. I feel like not a lot of training or practice went into it. Ahsoka favors forms 1, 3, and 6 the most from everything I've watched in the shows over the years. That was not well displayed here and it threw me off. I couldn't get into the fights much because of that. Even if I don't pay attention to the forms not used, there's still the obvious lack of general fight knowledge. There are lots of videos on UA-cam that show others for free how to do basic sword fighting and fancy looking tricks that can be incorporated into fights. Overall, there was a big lack of good fighting sequences and I feel it could be improved. Lastly, I feel you guys struggled with Ahsoka's character. There's no way that she would've just let Maul get near a child, no matter the "relation". She would've known that he would've had a dark reason for wanting to train her. It just wouldn't have happened. She would have fought to keep him away from her.
Anyway, those are my thoughts. I do want to say that I do still applaud those who worked to make this short film. I know these take a long time to make, a lot of work, and a lot of money sometimes. Everything I said here is just meant to be constructive criticism. If someone takes offense to this, then that's on you not me. Congrats to everyone who worked on this. You did a pretty good job and I hope you will continue to make films and learn from each one.
No offense taken at all. I appreciate your thoughts very much. Your comments have a level of respect, fairness and dignity that is often lacking online.
This was of course a low budget labor of love. As a director, there will always be things that I wish we could go back and refine. For instance, it would've been great to have more time to practice/work on the fight choreography with our professional fight choreographer (and even to have him there on all the days we shot the fight scenes to supervise), but that wasn't in the budget. Also would've loved to have some stunt doubles and do wire work, but it was just the actors in makeup.
Still, I'm very proud of what the whole team accomplished with the resources we had. I think the overwhelmingly positive comments and the awards that the film is starting to recieve is proof that it pleases and thrills the audience it was intended for. To me, that is a great measure of success. Thank you again for watching and commenting.
@@AntigravityFilmsABQ I hear you and I'm really glad you didn't take anything I said wrong. I was honestly a little nervous about that. Considering this was all low budget, it really was a neat video. Everyone on your team did a wonderful job. The young girl was particularly amazing!! I think I loved watching her the most tbh. She made me laugh a lot and she expressed her emotions very well.
I'm glad you guys were able to have a pro fighting choreographer help you with some of the fighting sequences. I could tell there was some level of practice, but it didn't seem refined which is why I mentioned it. If this video does well, I hope you guys are able to get funding for future projects if you are planning any. I think you guys would do really well if you had the proper funding. You clearly love the Star Wars universe and it shows.
Well done and congrats on what you guys were able to make on a low budget. It was truly amazing! I hope you guys go far in future. I hope one day I can do or make a SW fan film one day like you guys. Until then, I'm just making fan fictions haha. I wish you and your team well!
The only issue with the script is that maul said obi-wan and not Kenobi
Nice job guys!!
This is AWESOME! But...Maul sounds like Ed Kemper in Mindhunter and now I can't unhear it. I'm giggling 🫣😆
Awesome job guys
Loved seeing Maul with bionic legs in live action!
I am the writer, director and Maul actor. So glad you enjoyed it. I had always wished to see Maul in this form in live action, too. After he didn't appear in Kenobi, I decided I should just make my own!
You did such an incredible job!!!! loved the story arc, the dialogue felt real and there was such attention to detail in every scene.. Incredible acting from everyone! @@AntigravityFilmsABQ
Awesome film!
Great Work!!!! 🎉
Stunning performances, amazing costume and makeup, awesome plot and writing! Superb!
Glad you enjoyed it! Please share! Would love to get to 100K views by it's anniversary next month.
Amazing!
Well done You may think about entering the Directors Choice Fan Film awards.
Congrats, awesome job!! I loved it
That was great, very prefessional. Loved those closeup reflections in actors eyes. And Maul has sweet lightsaber moves :)
Impressive. Most impressive.
This literally blew my mind! So incredible through and through and the costumes were Lucasfilm quality! Great work!
good movie. some innovative things. nice job.
That's a good short! Where are the views?!
Just released this morning! Please share!
Very good great work with this one
Holy… that was so epic 😁👍🏼
Awesome work!!
Great job‼️
👏 👍👍👍
Sick
Great video thanks 😊
Really enjoyed it. Good job everybody.
So, was this the image that was supposedly leaked as a behind the scenes of Ahsoka
I swear I saw that picture years ago
@@xd51000 I know, crazy it was this
The willhelm Scream was that really necessary😮.. You just have to put that in there..😂.. Good video
Ah, the classic Willhelm Scream. As this was my very first Star Wars Fan film, I just had to do it! Now that it's out of my system, won't have to do it again... maybe. he he.
@@AntigravityFilmsABQ It is in other films as well.. This was well done.. Keep them up coming
Beautiful 😊
Epic Five Star. over the top. Watch ALOT of fan films this was extraordinary! Unique. First young ASHOKA I've seen. Woohoo!
"It will grow back." 🤣😂😄
"Hey ugly!" That attitude is Ahsoka. Why did this 19 minute fan film do such a better job with Ahsoka's character than what her canon, big budget disney+ show has pulled off so far?
Nicely done!
Awesome 😎 I really enjoyed it as a 50 year old, fanatic of Star wars
Very well done!
This need more views. Pre 1k views gang
Wow that’s was great better than the. Last 3 Star Wars movies clapping 👏 great 😊
Better than disney show
This was awesome 👍🏻
Fabulous!!! 🤘
I hope you plan on making a sequel to this short story, but more important a prequel to get the full backstory on the young nightsister
Thank you! I have actually written a part II and III to take the story all the way up to where we see Ahsoka (and Maul) appear in Star Wars Rebels. Just need some private funding to make them happen.
So was this where those (since refuted) rumors that the Ahsoka series was being filmed in the US desert came from?
Amazing!
JUST WHEN I THINK I'M OUT, THEY PULL ME BACK IN TO ... TATOOINE!
So good😊
Thank you. Please share it!
Loved the attention to detail. Like the heavy assault shielded rifle. And all the twileks were hot. Seriously. There was a great disturbance...in my pants!
Better than the sequel
For me this fan film is part ot the star wars canon
Also, I know it is very early to start thinking about this, but are there plans for a part 2?
With some funding, I would love to do part 2! Finding money for these is the hardest part - and Disney/Lucasfilm doesn't allow crowdfunding like Kickstarter or Indiegogo, so it all has to be private donations or self funded.
Is there anyway for viewers, such as myself, to donate but like... 'privately,' Id love to support but not if it gets you guys sued.@@AntigravityFilmsABQ
This is great!❤❤❤
Im pretty sure Ahsoka had a run in with Maul and crimson dawn after order 66... its possible
So this is where that Darth Maul leak came from
Yes. That was us. Very unintentional. Some hiker wandering through set (we had many) posted a photo and it went viral!
Maravilhoso.
😊❤ love STAR WARS.
Parabéns 👍👍
I absoluly love these Fan Films!! I actually felt like I was watching Star Wars!!!! Some fan films are ok some are good but this one was great! I would love to find out what goes into creating one like this and how much something like this costs. I have an idea for one myself.
Hey thanks. That's great feedback. As far as budget goes, they can be dirt cheap to very expensive. Just depends on how many freinds you ask favors of and how many costumes/props you can round up too. As for Rendezvous, I hired professional actors and crew and paid all of them a bit. Most of the costumes and props were custom made for the film. Fortunately I had some private funding because the whole thing cost between $20-30K. (My understandign is that Disney frowns upon crowdfunding fan films so all money raised has to be private). You are also not allowed to make any money from the film after it's done like monetizing, etc. Good luck developing your idea!
@@AntigravityFilmsABQ Thank you. of course Disnay frowns on it. The Star Wars community makes better material than them!!! I wonder if KK actually watches these fan films. Maybe she would get a clue of what the fanbase actually wants in a SW film or TV show!!! Great job again!!!
I think if I have 5 millions dollars, all the ministry and minister, crying out loud
This was very good it didn't violate cannon and was well Made
Nice job! Will there be a continuation? Because we dont see this young nightsister later on, so a story where she dies or something else happens to her would enhance the canon of this story (since we dont see her later on)
I would absolutely love to make a sequel, and have some ideas, but no budget exists for such an endeavor at this point. With all the prosthetics, costumes, professional actors/crew and visual effects, these can be very expensive to do right. And I would rather do it right than wrong. Disney/Lucasfilm does not allow crowdfunding either, so all money raised would have to be private funding. Know any folks with access to money that would be interested in executive producing?
Just amazing!
One of the best sw fan films I have seen
Well, thank you. Please share!
@@AntigravityFilmsABQ Np, and will do! Do you plan to make another one? And just a quick question with the lightsabers you used did you use baselit?
@@flarris7774 I have two more episodes written to finish up the story arc. Just need to find the $ to make them. When I was making Rendezvous, the only Ahsoka whites available were the Disney Galaxy's Edge and they were super bulky. KR Sabers had announced, but not released by the time we filmed. Ended up getting ours from a 3D printer on Etsy in Australia. Now there's tons of options out there and will probably "upgrade" when I make the new episodes.
@@AntigravityFilmsABQ Thank you so much for getting back to me, and I wish you the best of luck! I plan to do a star wars film one day, it's just a matter of finding friends to do it with, and the $. I wish you the best of luck my friends!
So much better than what Disney had failed terribly.
My Ship My Finger ....Then proceeds to use her thumb 🤣🤪🙃 what a line ,was that meant to be comedic ?.
