PLEROMA_TRAILER_v001 from Chris Browne on Vimeo. “The robots look and feel as real in what you would see in a Boston Dynamics promotional video the only difference is that they’re a little more advanced in their intelligence.”Ĭheck out the trailer, then learn more about how Browne produced the short film. “A lot of those films like RoboCop, The Terminator and Blade Runner take place so far into the future, whereas I try to keep it as much present day as possible,” notes Browne. Robots are a science fiction staple and have driven the narrative of Hollywood franchises established by filmmakers like Paul Verhoeven, James Cameron, and Ridley Scott. “The feature script was written over a span of six months, and the short is pulling chunks out of that and sculpting it into its own story.” “I was also employed at DreamWorks full-time, so I spent evenings and weekends working on it for about a year and a half to two years,” remarks Browne. The project was conceptualized and executed during the pandemic. The proof-of-concept short film was directed by Browne, who also handled the creation of 200 digitally augmented shots that contain six photoreal robot characters, virtual environments, destruction, and swarming drone bots. Conceived as feature film and television series by animation veteran Tim Hedrick and visual effects supervisor Chris Browne, Pleroma revolves around an AI run corporation turning against its human employees who place their hopes of survival on a prototype robot. ![]()
