The film I made is not the simple retelling of The Irishman using RDR2, its a new story, new film, in the same universe - but really really different, yet engaging and grounded in Scorsese's magic directing style.
This isn't gameplay; it's in-game cinematography. I spent hundreds of hours meticulously crafting this short film to analyze and honor the directing style of Martin Scorsese, using Grand Theft Auto V as my "director's sandbox". Every frame is a study in film theory and post-production mastery, not simple "Let's Play" content.

Intention: To educate viewers on advanced in-game filmmaking techniques and the specific directorial choices of Martin Scorsese.
Technique: Production required ~10 hours for every 30 seconds of footage. Footage was recorded at 60fps and slowed to 63% for a natural 24fps cinematic feel. Sound mastering in Adobe Premiere Pro to -14 LUFS.
Disclaimer: This is a non-monetized fan project for educational purposes. The underlying story uses nameless, ambient characters to create an original narrative; it does not promote real-world violence.
