Yesterday morning, the popular Youtube channel CorridorDigital released their newest video..a really well made portrayal of Dark Link, they dubbed “Link’s Shadow, The Legend of Zelda”.
Being one of their subscribers, I naturally clicked over to see what it was about…and was pleasantly surprised when I recognized my good friend, Geran Simpson, playing “good” Link! ..now I had heard about this project from Geran a couple of months ago, but had somehow managed to forget about it until seeing it yesterday. Check out the video here..
My opinion as a big fan of The Legend of Zelda franchise, and as someone who usually works on bigger budgeted projects? THIS VIDEO ROCKS. I love the sword fight choreography and execution, I love the special effects, setting, style, and the concept…also, I’m pretty sure the guys at Corridor Digital filmed this video in two days total, which is an impressive feat considering the attention to detail they managed to portray while filming on a free, remote location.
I asked Geran his opinion on the choreography.. he told me “The fight was a lot of fun to shoot, and everyone I worked with was great. I just wish the fight could have lasted longer, I see so much potential for a more epic showdown..but we were held back with time constraints.”
Maybe sometime in the future they will re-visit this idea with a super epic showdown? Let’s hope…below, you can watch their “making of” video..
Also make sure that the room is not drafty since you want to inhale as much or the aroma as possible. http://deeprootsmag.org/2012/12/12/gold-publishes-yiddish-glossary-for-goyim-special-deal-on-facebook/ cialis properien
I am continuously being astounded by the production value and ingenuity that the YouTube channels of today are putting into their videos. The future looks very bright for the online filmmaking community, as Netflix has recently surpassed HBO in number of US subscribers. My friends and I look forward to working more and more with the online community, to help bridge the gap between elite Hollywood productions and uniquely talented filmmakers.
Until next time,
