UNbalance : Ultra Q-inspired action kaiju webseries!

Postby rogerhartfell » Fri Nov 01, 2013 10:54 am

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes!

I've been directing an Ultra Q-inspired web series for the past eight months, and we've just released the first trailer, before episode 1 comes out in around a month's time!

I've always wanted to see a giant monster destroy my home city of Melbourne :P The kaiju in this first episode is based loosely off of Mogu from the unused "Return of King Ghidorah" concept. Besides Ultra Q and Godzilla, there are some references to a few other Toho films (and a big one to Prophecies of Nostradamus :P ). After that, we ended up throwing in all of the sci-fi, fight action and horror that we've loved all of our lives... it's a big melting pot of influences :P We're hoping that, by planting this seed, big things may grow! :)

The first episode isn't far away, so stay tuned! :D

Wow, that is looking pretty sweet! Thanks for posting about it. I'm subscribed to your youtube feed now, but please keep us up to date here as well. Good going!
And since it's not actually Japanese and not actually Ultraman or Ultra Q, I think this is a good spot to post at.

Impressive work. Despite being a zero-budget production, it looks more professional than some movies that get a theatrical release in Japan these days. Looking forward to seeing the first episode.

Wow, thank you all so much! Very glad you guys approve, it means a lot! :)

I'll be certain to keep you all informed of the big updates on here; the more regular production diary updates will be on the Facebook page so I'm not spamming the thread :P

Jared, hope your eyes aren't still bugging out like that :P I loved the absolute heck out of Sorta episode 2 when it came out :)

Pretty good! I like the storyline, for a low budget indie the effects were good, and the acting was pretty reasonable. I'm looking forward to seeing more of this. :D

I finally got around to watching this in full tonight (which makes me part of the problem, I know) but I quite liked it! It's rough around the edges and has lots of room for improvement but I'm looking forward to seeing the next episode!
