And so it begins

After countless hours of refinement and technical problem-solving, I'm proud to present "And Now It Begins"—an evolving anthology of short AI films (hopefully one day, even a miniseries) that blends action and horror into something visceral and new. I had been deeply analyzing how to do action scenes just as this contest came about so I am glad I was able to bring some of the worlds I am envisioning to life in a decent manner. For this action contest, I'm sharing a scene from "I Come, I Conquer," titled "Spar Day." This is a glimpse into a universe where elite beings of many universes—human and non-human alike, have witnessed an approaching threat. If left unstopped, it will annihilate them all, planet by planet. The story runs deep, with interconnected stories like "Love Kills Demons," "The Hunters," and "Vanessa's Dural" ensuring that the whole series is both diverse and intriguing. I plan to release additional short videos like this that will reveal more about the lore, and the larger narrative at play. Kindly note: I paid homage to a few existing characters in this short, but as previously mentioned, they will not appear in any feature-length adaptation.
