Robota

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Not sure if anyone has heard of this. I first saw the book in Barnes and Noble a few years ago, but sadly didn't pick it up. Now I found out that it's going to be a film and possible game put together by Doug Chiang - the Creative Director for Ep 1 and 2 - and no doubt Ep 3.

Anyway, Robota is his own project (Though I did see Orson Scott Card's name in the credits), and I recently found four teaser trailers for it and thought I'd post them. Two through four are animated, and I was pretty much foaming at the mouth - being an animation major does that. The ideas, design, music, modeling, and texture all make me want to open up Max and try to one-up Chiang. But then the lazy procrastinator in me wins out ^_^;

So here's teasers 1-4:

These are trailers for the books... right?

It mentioned he was making a movie/short film of it in addition to the book and game. At least I remember it saying that.
