Wonder Woman BTS (2017) Conceptual Pre-vis RivenX3i 2022-06-20 | This proof of concept was shot back in April 2015, very early on during the beginning stages of pre-production for the first Wonder Woman movie. This was one of the first big pre-viz's that Brad Allan gave me the opportunity to put together for him. Nerves were high but I was hyped to try.The goal of the concept was to capture how well Diana and the rest of the Amazonians are able to work in tandem. Crazy to think that this was over 7 years ago. Good times fr. #WonderWoman #DC #GloryDays #Squad #Previs

Eagles Prey: Clandestine Special Prologue (Barutis backstory) RivenX3i 2013-08-02 | Original Music Composed By - Andrew Prahlowfacebook.com/andrewprahlowmusicThe Eagle...Clansmen live their lives perpetually looking over their shoulder, wary of constant threats from friend and foe alike. A solitary and, at times, harrowing existence that takes its toll on the men and women within the clan. For the youngest Eagle son, Baruti, this lifestyle was one that he could no longer stand. 7 years prior, the Eagle runaway was betrayed and deeply hurt by his older brother Samson. This betrayal resulted in the loss of a very important soul, Baruti's motherly guardian. Since that day, Baruti has traveled the world looking for who he "really" is and has fought with coming to terms with his loss. In present day, upon hearing the sudden news of his Father's assassination, Baruti agrees to reunite with the people he once called "family". Baruti's return could mean several things to his older brother Samson: forgiveness due to a new found threat from an unknown common enemy....or perfect timing to exact his revenge for past wrongs. Believing in their age old saying, "Fighting eagles tend to both fall..." Samson reassures himself and agrees to meet Baruti to confirm what his true intentions are...

The concept was put aside after hearing about the CW's Arrow announcement. We have trash timing.We were excited about re-exploring a DC comics "Elseworld" through the eyes of a more grounded character, Green Arrow, but not at the risk of imposing on the creativity and hard work of the Arrow series creators. We've delayed putting it online until now to avoid any potential conflict or confusion with the development of Arrow.We hope our comic book and action fans enjoy!

They see all. Uncontrollable emotions and weak minded individuals are their playground, as they can manipulate the minds of any enemy that isn't mentally stable. It's time to see how these abilities translate in battle, and how this clan has carved its place among the elites.One of the Eagle's most intelligent clansmen, Baruti (Brendon Huor) has ventured off into the city and garnered unwanted attention from many a crime faction. When they all place a hit on him, they underestimate how dangerous he can be. Their assassins quickly realize that while their death-dealing skills are unmatched in the world they know, they simply become toys when they enter an Eagle warrior's playground.

Thousand Pounds Presents: Clandestine - Kickstarter Campaign Video RivenX3i 2012-07-03 | http://www.facebook.com/ClandestinePathAs true fans and film makers...We have adapted Naruto --We have adapted the Street Fighter and the Tekken universes --And we have paid homage to many others --Now it's time to take the next logical step: building our own lore and world"Clandestine" is the passion project -- A full 10 episode dramatic action epic told as only we could.We are launching a kickstarter campaign to ask you guys for help in getting this dream project off the ground...ABOUT CLANDESTINEIt's The Godfather -- meets X-men with a Japanese Feudalistic mentality. It hasn't been done before, but we already know that if this show already existed, we would be watching it -- and that's what makes us excited about making it. The story is essentially about feudalistic clan warfare, something that has always drawn our attention because of the "clan" structures in ancient times -- living and fighting side by side with your mother, brother, father, lover, and sometimes having to watch those people die in front of your eyes, something about that -- that humanity used to experience this -- is really powerful...This is not a period drama piece, but we are saying, what if these Clans were there at the start of human conflict and never left this world -- essentially living in the shadows of society, pushing and pulling the strings of humanity only when necessary...The story follows the lives of a wide variety of characters but our main heroine is a young woman named Adelene, who learns she's the lost matriarch to one of four feuding supernatural clans left in this world. She no older than 20 or 21, an average girl, albeit had a harder upbringing than most but the fact of the matter is, she is young, naïve, and is dragged into a dramatic war for control. Becoming this clan's new leader, Adelene is constantly pushed to make decisions that affects numerous lives with dramatic consequences.KICKSTARTERSaying we want to show people things they've never seen before is too easy of a cop out for what we are trying to do. You are going to see stuff you've never seen before -- that's a given, being that we are aiming to tell a story that will entertain you while changing the way you look at life. Enjoy it, feel for it, share it, and have fun with it -- and hopefully you get a lot out of what we've done.We are striving to tell this story and create Clandestine not just because we want to, but because we feel we have to. You guys have been supporting us for a while now and with that support and help, we just want to give you back something more. A lot more.Be a part of the change that's coming to film making -- we will be the first with this kind of story-telling and action -- and we want you guys to be a part of the ride -- because we ARE you guys! Now let's make a sick, enjoyable series and go back to geeking out when we are done.

Naruto Shippuden: Dreamers Fight - Release Announcement RivenX3i 2011-09-14 | Monday, September 26th - Will be the release of Part 1 for Naruto Shippuden: Dreamers Fight!
Naruto Shippuden: Dreamers Fight - Fan Film Trailer RivenX3i 2011-05-23 | PART 1 RELEASE DATE: MONDAY SEPT 26TH 2011!!!!A Link to the Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y273U2uas4"Naruto Shippuden: Dreamers Fight"This is the new fan tribute our team has chosen to do next. Masashi Kishimoto's Naruto Series (Manga & Anime) has heavily inspired many of us so we thought it would be cool to try and translate a fight to a live action format. The short is being shot on the Canon EOS 7D and was done on a budget of about $4,000 (Out of pocket). The run time should be around 20 minutes. You could say it acts as a live action filler. The battle will be between The Leaf's Naruto Uzamaki & Rock Lee and is set to release this summer. Our team has put their all into this short and we really hope Naruto fans and the creators will enjoy what we've put together!Starring: Donald Mills & Brendon Huor Written, Shot, Edited & Directed By: Christopher C.
