The Story and Special Effects

The story of RESET is fairly basic, but this was done deliberately, one of the main reasons for creating Reset was that i wanted to create a film that would give me the ability to experiment with 2d animation and show of my skills in PhotoShop. all the special effects in this film were created using still images in Photoshop.

Weapons & Props

Dude to very strict laws in Australia, it is almost imposable to use any form of replica, Paintball, Airsoft, or look-alike weapon without having a fully licensed armorer on set. due to the extreme cost of hiring an armorer and the simple fact it i would have cost more the the whole budget of the film put together. we decided that it was more practical to shoot the film on private property with a bunch of toy guns, some of which have been modified to look more realistic.

Cast and Crew

A very BIG thanks goes out to all those involved in the project of putting this film together. there was so much work put in buy so many that was unseen by others. i want to take this opportunity to say a big thank you to Brad Raward, who put so much effort and time into the the re-writing of the script and taking time off work to direct the film.

a big thanks Glenn Brown, for all his continuing input and advice, which hang onto with great respect.

to Tom Heath, for his awesome job well done, and taking the time to work around his all ready busy schedule.

Justin Bush my close and valued friend, i couldn't have done this with out you help and support.

to Steven Shepard, Andy Croft, Aaron Brouwer and Michael Watson. for taking the time to be involved in the project. and doing such an amazing job

to Phil and Doc from Superflous, for putting an awesome score together for the film. and doing do so with out even seeing any of the visuals. and still being able to give the feel and atmosphere that was required

a big thanks to my dad who worked the costume and props department. this film would not have worked it it went for his hard work and support.

Interesting Facts

Reset script original called for a 4 week shoot, but due to time constraints and cast and crew availability the film was shot in only 4 days with only minor changes to the script.

very well done man! awesome work for 4 days! jeez it takes my mates a week to just decide what order to film scenes in. we're a lot more amateurish than you are though. lol.

one thing i noticed was when the camera is circling round the player on that hill, you can see the cameraman's shadow on the actor. other than that, top work

hey Reece, did you check out the link to the Bad boys clip i animated.

here is the link if anyone else wants to check it out.

its my first attempt at animating a character in 3d, done to a sound clip from the movie Bad Boys. it only goes for 7 seconds but some of you might get a kick out of it.
