"Indie Inferno" - Intro Cinematic

Check out the game here!

The Project: "Indie Inferno" is a first-person action game featuring a pretentious film bro's final showdown with his producer, who wants him to make a commercial film.

The Work: Defined the narrative structure, storyboarded sequences and created the final dialogue and illustrations for the opening cutscene, all while building a humorous tone for the story.

Extract: INTRO CINEMATIC. It serves to set the stage for the game's absurd, dramatic conflict.

If I were a character in a Tarantino movie, I’d definitely be the one with the most complex backstory.

How could I not be? I’m just the greatest filmmaker of the century.

Well, I will be, at least.

It’s only a matter of time before my magnum opus is ready for release.

Like any well-crafted protagonist, however, I’m now facing the ordeal of my hero’s journey: to get funding, I was forced to sign a deal with the devil known as a “film production company”. 

This producer knows nothing about cinema. All this talk about rom-coms, superhero movies, reality TV… Where’s the appreciation for real, indie cult classics? I guess only the most intellectual people get it, though.

I was stuck. What I craved was art. A surreal commentary on existential angst, perhaps, or a metaphor for life. Anything but commercial trash.

That is when I decided to build it. 

The ultimate tool, one that would allow me to capture the truth of the human spirit…

Time is running out.

The producer keeps pressuring, keeps tormenting me to make a marketable product…

But I will not give up.

With my SANY SM (Size Matters) Camera with me, I’ll be able to build the greatest cinematic triumph humankind has ever seen!
