TUKK TALES: The Rescue - A Clone Wars Fan Film | Announcement Teaser Trailer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 кві 2023
- Here we go!
After a lot of asset building, test animations, artworks & learning a ton along the way, I'm finally working on an actual Clone Wars fan short film !
A huge passion project & love letter to the show that made my childhood.
What is it about?
"In a war filled with larger-than-life heroes, a rather unremarkable group of clones led by Captain Tukk proves that everyone has the potential to write their own legends. As the troopers find themselves trapped behind enemy lines, they must fight their way out of danger, forge unexpected alliances and discover the strength of compassion in a race against time."
How long will it be??
I'm currently revising parts of the previs animation, so it's not set in stone yet, but probably around 12 minutes.
And when will it be released???
Since this is a personal project I can only work on between client jobs, it depends on a lot of factors that are hard to foresee. For now I can only humbly ask you to be patient, follow along my journey with this ambitious fan film project, subscribe and keep an eye on my social media pages for future updates and previews. There will be a lot more cool stuff to watch until the final release!

*===UPDATE November 6, 2023===*
Hey everyone! Just updated the video description a bit, changing two important details:
1. LENGTH: The estimated length of the short film will be closer to 12 minutes instead of 6! Yes, you heard that right, Tukk Tales will be quite a bit longer than initially planned! I realized the story benefits a lot from the additional scenes & the higher stakes they introduce & from letting the scenes breath a bit more overall. I usually work as 3d generalist in advertising where videos have to be FAST & attention grabbing, but with a film like this the right pacing is so important. It's such a great learning experience for me as both a 3d generalist AND director, which is one of the main reasons why I'm making it in the first place.
2. RELEASE DATE: I initially said I HOPE to get the short film finished some time next year, but that's certainly not the case any more due to both the increased length & me having been busier with freelance work & life than anticipated throughout the year. Since this is a personal project I can only work on between client jobs, the ultimate release date depends on a lot of factors that are hard to foresee. For now I can only humbly ask you to be patient, follow along my journey with this ambitious fanfilm project, subscribe and keep an eye on my social media pages for future updates and previews. There will be a lot more cool stuff to watch until the final release!

This is where the fun begins!

Amazing
Say my name, it's Abhijeet
Wow! The closeness to TCW's art style is insane! Looks great + can't wait!
Drewski's into starwars?
Hol' up

oh shit my boy is here
Idk what to comment so I'll just make a placeholder here. :)
I'll pay rent too.
0:15
Tukk: “why the long face?”
Droid in the back: *Touches the snout on his face* 🤣🤣🤣
SILLY CLANKERS!!😆😆😆
I was just thinking that
"Why the long face?"
*B1 grabs his face and questions own sanity*
This is the most Clone Wars accurate fan film I have ever seen! Well done!
ikr
Indeed thanks for sharing it on your channel nick
Fr, feels so professional
Hey love your work is he going make a series
Nick, you should collaborate with High Ground Animations and animate your version of the Fives arc.
WOW THE PRODUCTION VALUE! Everything from the voice actors, animation, motion graphic title cards, etc. So hyped for this! 😭
Hello Wolffe, how's it going?
Ayyy! I hope you can cover that a bit, hope your doing good too!
Woofwoof !!!!
legend
wait ur still alive
I though this was a new official project at first, then I saw the fan film in the title. THIS IS INSANE!!! It looks JUST like the real thing, definitely excited.
The little feather is the touch that makes it perfect
The craziest part is they didn’t _just_ capture the accuracy of the art style or the voices.. They literally have the humor and _X-factor_ charm of TCW and the other shows! *BRILLIANT!*
just as darth maul said, "Brilliant, BRILLIANT!"
@@theblasteffect4499 hahaha nice
Mmhm, like how the one droid was checking to see if his face was really that long. God this is going to be good.
Why the X-factor?
I 100% agree with you, lmao the humor is what made me pogger face at this fr. what's X factor though?
Incredible; It's safe to say you've mastered the Clone Wars animation style. We will watch your career with great interest!
Yeah!
We shall watch
Watch
👀👀👀👀
I can't believe how accurate the animation is and the voices even the personalities, I can already see them coming out, it is incredible and I cannot wait to see more of it.
I think this proves how much fans overwhelmingly love the clones and the animated series' from Clone Wars to Bad Batch and want more. I can't wait for the whole story. I wish the bean counters at Disney had the vision or hired people like High Ground Animations to do official shows/ shorts/ movies/ anything like this.
I love how the one droid actually grabs his face when Tukk asks, “Why the long face?” This is going to be amazing!
Pretty accurate too.
Clone wars humor
I can't believe that that joke has never been made before.
Yeah I laughed at that as well
It’s a horse joke but probably in the universe is a same joke but different animal
The Clonewars can't end if we don't let it. This looks absolutely amazing
One day im gonna learn blender to do that.
@@lightsamuraigaming9831 wait, is this all done in blender?
@@user-op8fg3ny3j nah it's fortnite unreal engine.
@@moonquartzs that's crazy then!👍
@@user-op8fg3ny3j It literally says in the description that it's done in Blender.
It’s so funny when Roy laugh at the end 🤣
It’s gunna be sad when he dies 😢😢
The Droid checking his face still cracks me up 😂
I’d *kill* to see the unfinished Clone Wars arcs and books/comics animated like this!
The Post-Battle of Endor Novels is in dire needs for such treatment, i'd pay for support if that were the case.
Yes, I will become a patreon supporter if this is promised.
i would also pay a lot of money to see anything like this
I would also pay money to see this.
I would love at *least* Dark Disciple and Son of Dathomir to be animated like this. If they could get the Cad Bane and Boba arc as well, I'd be sold.
The way you’ve captured the animation style of TCW and TBB is nothing short of incredible. And thats an understatement. Absolutely incredible how your animation quality is nearly indistinguishable from Disneys high budget projects. Can’t wait for the full film.
Can you animate a 91st recon core trooper we didn't get to see them from like 3 scenes in the entire clone wars there my fav looking clones
@@gohanblack9294 correct me if I'm wrong but are they the ones who were on speeders in the order 66 scene I ROTS? if so then I agree!
@@beccadixon1943 Yep, that's true
@@beccadixon1943 it is, with commander Neyo
As someone who grew up with the Clone Wars, this looks incredible
This captures the heart and soul of the Clone Wars show! ❤️
This isn’t a fan film, this is a masterpiece
It can be both
When this fan film is better than bad batch s2😂😂😂
It's cinema
@@alexBK14 Nah, both of them are masterpieces. You can say this to sequel
@@JUICYbluepanda2 yeah but im sad bcs bad batch s2 where put of context u know it was so sad and episodes where to shorte its sad
Remember that this is the person who kept making those clone wars test reels during the *6 year* period when we thought the show was canceled forever. They deserve the support on this project for never giving up
YEs, very much so Kai
wow this is going to be sick, when the fans do it, they always smash it. well done to you and your team who are all so talented. keep up the hard work.
When he said "why the long face?" A droid just gelt his face
The droid to the right at 0:17 who started becoming self conscious about his long face is everything.
lmfao yeah
I didn’t se that 😂
Reminds me of rocket raccoon XD
At 0:15 I just noticed that after he asks “why the long face?” A battle droid in the background starts touching it’s face like “is my face really *that* long?” Love the detail put into this. Fantastic Job to everyone who worked/ is working on this project!
Literally a “George Lucas” finishing touch
Sometimes when I'm feeling down, I rewatch this video and that interaction always gets a chuckle from me. It's why I love Star Wars: it's always fun and funny.
Yeah I noticed that was I was laughing my butt off XD
We must protect this person at all cost, because we wont get many fanmade animations like these for a long time. Keep up the great work, cant honestly wait to watch this fan film, my mind was totally blown away and the music scores are awesome. allready love ur own chrachter design and the humor of the clones! u have my respects Sir. 😁👍
Incredible. Not only are the animations and voices spot on, but you captured the feeling of Clone Wars. I feel like often when people make Clone Wars fan films, they make the troopers dumb or immature just for comedy. But what you did feels like true clone humor, not a cheap imitation. Fantastic job! You just earned yourself another subscriber!
I genuinely hope this doesn’t die with this trailer. I want a full episode. Amazing stuff, I can’t tell the difference. And I love the design of Captain Tukk.
yeah i am hoping this isnt gonna be like what happened to the adventures of the 501st lol
@@ThatShady1 Or Unreal Cinema and their KOTOR joke
@@ThatShady1 I'm pretty sure Adventures of the 501st is still going to be a thing. Someone commented on one of their community posts around 4 months back and they responded that they're still working on it.
@@CloneCommanderCrater1102 oh thats awesome
Forget an episode, I WANT A WHOLE SEASON!
The expression at 0:24 looks as though it is pulled right from an actual episode. Amazing work and massive props to the entire team behind this for capturing the quality of the actual show amazingly well.
He did the Rex face XD
Holy crap your right, i see legit no difference, not one.
0:25
This is the face Rex made when Ahsoka said she didn't need a jetpack for the landing in the mandalorian city, at the begining of the Siege of Mandalore.
At this point I have watched this so many times, it’s so detailed! You’ve come such a long way from making these. Even in 2014 they looked really good!
0:23 (when the Clones are crossing the bridge) LOOKS AMAZING
Even the camera shots match the original shows. The lighting, the character design, the jokes and timming, all replicated perfectly. 👏👏👏
This looks EXCEPTIONALLY animated, oh my goodness. Congratulations to everyone involved in this.
One million views! Congrats! This will be the best fan animation in history! Can’t wait for it!
This is the only Star Wars media I’m excited for
This is actually incredible. Huge props to anyone who was involved making this.
Was one guy i think
@@somename187 And musicians, voice actors, etc.
They're all credited in this video's description.
@@rithrius5384 Oh, i havnt looked, thanks for your correction
OH MY GOSH THIS LOOKS SO FANTASTIC I CANNOT BELIEVE THIS IS A *FAN FILM.* THIS IS A PROFESSIONAL LEVEL DISNEY BUDGET LOOKING MASTERPIECE!! I love your clone characters so much already! The amount of talent and effort that went into this is really incredible!
If Roy goes out like Hevy did, I’ll start believing that mini-guns are the prerequisite for a heartbreaking sacrifice in Star Wars
Wow, this was spectacular! You REALLY managed to capture not only the look and sound but also the spirit of the show! Bravo, I can't wait to see the full fan film!
This is pure gold. The team behind this needs some serious recognition for this. Absolutely gorgeous
Yeah i hope Disney doesn't slap a copyright on this.Rather they could make it a legit project by atleast giving these guys a contract.
@@ashutoshkulkarni9280 that would be cool but then they lose all their creative freedom. At least on their own they can make what they want. Until Disney forces them to stop.
It's only one person There isn't a team behind this. Just one guy.
@@giaxo1739 you read the description
@@Tpionee I watched the previous videos.
I wouldn't be surprised if you get hired by Lucasfilm/Disney to work on something official. As this was masterfully done. The flow of the action, jokes, and the overall animation of these character's, truly captured the feeling of watching The Clone Wars!
Exactly
I’d be surprised, because that would be a good decision
@@Giddog40 this is the smartest thing i've read all way
That would be awesome. Maybe have Tukk cross paths with The Bad Batch in S3.
@@qefewfwdcwdcYeah let’s care about the fact that it’s almost indistinguishable from a real episode from
A multibillionaire company while this is made by fans..
Just outstanding, I can not wait for this to come out. The style is perfectly done! You all are amazing!
it literally captures the clone wars and the animation style perfectly with even better made environments and lighting then stuff such as the bad batch
I can absolutely see people writing crossover fanfic with Tukk and canon clone squads once this comes out, and I’d run for it so fast
Clone side of TikTok has already included him in edits. He's canon in our hearts ❤
This is impressive as heck, for a fan film this feels so much like an actual developed star wars series.
Imagine what this guy could do with the unreleased clone wars arcs
Yeah that would be awsome
Dude this is just straight outta clone wars. The way the characters move, the style, their mannerisms, the voices, humor…could stick this in a random clone wars episode and could fool me…and I’ve seen the show 6 times. I’m starting to think this is the actual animation team behind the show
It's crazy how this looks better than the first season of The Clone Wars! Cannot wait to see the whole thing!
the first season of clone wars looked bad.
That's because it was 2008
@@schultz8122 yep but they ironed it, it was rather new at the time. And it was awesome nevertheless! But I see your point, lighting was bad, heck some colors were weird ect.
@LightSamurai Gaming yeah I was gonna say, not really too crazy. We've had a good decade and a half of technological advancements since then it would be disappointing if it didn't look at least a little better.
@@schultz8122 It looked fine for the time.
Some of y’all have some serious amnesia on the hard growing pains TV CGI went through to get where it is now.
Even if this project never comes to fruition, and even if the actual film doesn't live up to the expectations, this trailer alone is a master piece. Top notch art direction.
THIS IS LITERALLY THE SAME QUALITY AS THE CLONE WARS SHOW. ITS DO ACCURATE WTH
STILL SO EXITED
just... HOW?! the voices, the humor, the animation, it's all so perfect. you and whoever is on your team are disgustingly talented! 😉
He's a one man show..
@@zak_815 There are 7 people involved in the creation of this.
@@corellioncrusaderproductio4679 where did you get that?
@@zak_815 if you look down in the description you will see our boy credited six other guys, ranging from logo design, to music, to the voice actors.
They unfolded Filoni's secret formula
I swear you have to be someone who's worked on Clone Wars and Bad Batch. You've captured that whole art style and it's amazing.
This honestly looks like a professional standard, I love it and can't wait for more.
Omg this is incredible! The animation! The voice actors! The bits! It really feels like it's official!
Your passion for star wars shines brighter in this than it does in most of the more recent disney star wars media that's been coming out. Thank you for sharing this gem and helping me remember why i fell in love with the franchise in the first place - and how I can continue to be a positive fan by changing the mindset with which I view it above all else.
This is where the fun begins
Good, good, now we’re going up
No way dude, the quality of this just for being a fan film and was made solely for fun is absolutely top notch!
This needs to be cannoned. Right now.
😂 I loved that at 0:18 the droid in the back checks his face when Tukk says "why the long face"
If I didn't know this was fan-made I'd have assumed this was official. Outstanding work
this is unbelievable. It's literally perfect. The voices, the expressions, the body language and animations, all perfect. But what amazes me the most is how you have managed to replicate the clone wars color grading and directing style. The camera work is perfectly replicated which I don't think a lot of people acknowledge how difficult it is to do. Keep up the amazing work, can't wait for the final product.
That pogger face Rex makes comes back in here, IT'S JUST TOO GOOD FOR WORDS!
The music is so good! I want it to be released separetely!
This should be an official show. Your animation is spot on!
Very true
And if Disney copyright claim this it's considered canon
It really should
The level of fan made quality is almost indistinguishable to the real thing these days. Amazing!! Can't wait.
It just takes so long to make is the problemmmm
THE COMEDY, THE ANIMATION, THE MUSIC, IF I NEVER READ THE TITLE I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THIS WAS OFFICIAL so amazing
This is super exciting, you guys nailed the style, music, voice acting... the love put into this shows. Congratulations!
This is literally insane, the animation looks so authentic and accurate to the Clone Wars, this is really high-quality work
Tukk looks so lovable. Badass, humerous, all the qualities of a perfect clone. So excited to see where this goes!
How badass would it be if Filoni makes him canon haha
@@firingallcylinders2949 That would be amazing lol
One of the best look fan films out there! Really looking forward to it, Best of luck :)
I keep coming back to watch this every few days. I CAN'T WAIT!
can we take a moment to take in how amazing this looks, completely indistinguishable from the actual show
This is one of the greatest fan projects I’ve ever seen! I really wouldn’t be surprised if this inspires so many different people to start making clone wars content! Helluva job!
This looks so cool!!! I hope more talented people such as yourselves will make more Clone Wars based fan films, I see it becoming an industry in and of itself! Thank you so much for making this happen, I can't wait to watch the finished film! May the Force be with you!! 🙂
You nailed the Clone Wars esthetic and art-style. I just watch the 'Battle of the Heroes' Animation that Hello There made, and while of course it's an amazing animation and I really enjoyed it. It didn't quite felt like an official clone wars episode, something felt a bit odd. However, I must admit that this trailer just made me feel like I was watching the bad batch, it's THAT good.
What do you mean this is a fan film?! This looks straight out of Disney Plus! 😱
Seriously phenomenal work 👏👏👏
It looks like it was made before disney plus, which is even better
This is scarily impressive for a fan film. Better than most high budget animation studios in my opinion.
Fan project logic
This is just too cool! And, it looks fantastic! Thanks for doing this. Can hardly wait to see your film!
This is so impressive, I keep coming back to this in awe, can't wait for more developments
I already saw some of your test footage a long while back, but holy hell, it still blows my mind how insanely well you replicated the Clone Wars/Bad Batch style. Even the dialogue/humor feels authentic to the shows! The droid feeling its head after the "long face" line genuinely got me.
I'm incredibly excited to see the finished product! This is going to be a blast!
There is simply no fan work that has ever come even remotely close to this. This is truly indistinguishable from TCW, down to the humor and pacing. Also-HOW did you get the clones' voices so accurate? This is absolutely next level in indie film work.
I mean Astartes is pretty much the Warhammer 40k version of this, the company even went so jealous that they canceled the project and hired the guy who made it
@@ferrox8421 they also canonized Astartes.
@@djcuevas1057excuse me what? Really???? And that chapter as well?
@@semp224 yes they did.
You should watch the new "Hello There" studios on UA-cam they have Anakin vs Obi wan clone wars style
That is awesome spot-on work! I am so hyped too see the finished project! Can't wait!
ive spent five years writing and drawing a fan animation series but i dont know hot to animate so seeing this made me feel both happy Sad... looks pretty damn good man im happy for ya
0:42 "Ow, my head." *Bonk! "Nyaa!"
Amazing work. The humor, interactions with droids and everything is simply astounding. Very professional. Can’t wait to view the final product. Many of the comments here are also very positive. Once again, great work!
This is gonna be epic to watch and see! Keep up the good work !
You can really see the difference between when there's passion behind a project and when there's none. this one clearly has a lot of passion , hard work and love behind it much love
How do you read that?
" ..and when there's none this one clearly has a lot of... "🤔
@@kamal_jab stop bein an ass, there was just a missing comma after none lmao
@@kamal_jab easy just add a period after "none" in your mind simple eh?
The action, the artstyle, the comedy. THE COMEDY!!!! That’s something from s1 clone wars that I didn’t even knew I wanted more of! Lucasfilm NEED to hire you full time
Of course, Disney would undoubtedly hire a random dude on the social media just because he would help them skyrocket their income and pay their debts. That's the real Disney
0:18 the droid touching his face to see if it’s long 😂😂😂
I wish you all the luck, this trailer looks amazing!
The only reason I can tell this isn’t from an episode I forgot about are the voices. That is a massive compliment towards your animation and masterful capturing of the clone wars feel
But even the voices are very close. Tukk and the battle droids especially.
nah man the voices sound nearly identical
Do you ever see something fan made that makes you go, bloody hell that looks official
Well this is one of those times, this looks amazing, and if I didn't already follow the project before, I'd think this is officially made by Disney!
What you've managed to do is nothing short of amazing, seriously this is so good
This is on the same level as Astartes but Star Wars
I seen fan made animation don’t look official some live action yes but this it does look official by the look feel and movement
This looks like it is an actual clone wars series 🤯
Great job!
This is brilliant! The humour, the voices, animation, well done. So precise. I'm hooked!
THIS LOOKS INCREDIBLE. I already love their individual personalities and Tukk looks handsome too haha
you mean the hair is beautiful because other than that...haha
He's very handsome ngl
@@LifeGivesYouLemons0 The Grand Army of Steal Your Girl
I legit thought that this is an official trailer for another show. It took me a second to realize that it’s fan made. That’s shocking. This is absolutely fantastic.
No clue why, but the b1 touching his head after hearing “why the long face” killed me
Saying that this is incredible is such an understatement. This massaged my eyes.
I am speechless- this is actually insane! when I saw this in my recommended I genuinely thought it was another official clone wars era show.
Amazing, clean, crisp animation! Can't wait to see the final product!
