Dragon Ball Z Light of Hope

[FortuneSSJ]

I think its refreshing that instead of remake something from the show, they intend to make their own side story.
I just hope they dont forget that the original version is japanese and dont came with english cliche speeches. That kinda ruined the freeza saga teaser from K&K Productions to me.

Looks nice so far!

[DerekPadula]

Thanks, everyone! Your support makes a big difference to our morale, and we want to make this as high quality as we can.

Looks great, left me wanting more! 18 and 17 look awesome! I like 18 more though ;]

[DarkPrince_92]

Trailer was great. Definitely can't wait to see more.

Looks amazing so far

[dbboxkaifan]

And yet again they have flopped to deliver a "real life Dragon Ball Z" experience as others have tried to based on the trailer.

Then again, this is just a fan-work so it's obviously not going to be high quality in terms of budget and special effects.

I forgot this thread existed. But I wanted to let everyone know that I saw K&K post this on facebook and I was actually the first one to comment, asking the question "why does this look better than yours?" and the comment was deleted. This happened a few days ago. So in the end, we may never know how a non-funded(I think?) video is way better than a over donated funded budget project, that has the editing skills of cheap green screen. Honestly it looks like a joke, it's like Tim and Eric style. It's no excuse.

Yes, the promo trailer for Dragon Ball Z: Light of Hope was self funded by Rita and Donnie McMillin who founded Robot Underdog and both produce and direct the project. The special effects were done by Gregory Hall. All of us donated our time and effort and worked for free.

We hope to get crowd funding from DBZ fans so we can make our production even better.

so the sites dead ?

Maybe the hate they've been getting has finally kicked in... or hosting issues.

[omegalucas]

Love it! The only thing that could be better maybe is the ADR, the voices seem to lack... something. Maybe it's intentional though, them being androids and all...

[DerekPadula]

Thanks, glad you liked it. It's not intentional. Robot Underdog needs to get an audio FX or ADR specialist on the team, if they haven't already, to work on the proper audio mixing.

If anybody here is an audio specialist and wants to be part of the project, let me know! It's made by fans, for fans.

Filming for Episode 1 begins in early May.

Actually this is just a teaser for the fight scene in Episode 1. The full 10 minute (or so) episode will be out later this year.

But I'm glad you like it!

That was fucking dope!

[Jackal puFF]

Glad to see this thing is still alive! I really love the feel of the trailer, really gave me that same feeling Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist did. It seems real

[DerekPadula]

Thanks guys! It's exciting to see it come together like this and receive such a positive response.

The full episode will be even more impressive later this year.

[SSJ3_Zack]

The more and more I see of this project; the more I'm really enjoying what I'm seeing.

So they are doing an Indiegogo campaign now?

I remember that the K&K Productions came under scrutiny here for asking money (since they don't own a DB-related license). How is this one different?
