Check out this very cool new article on STARPOST over on The Good, The Bad, and the Verdict! Here’s an exceprt:

STARPOST was born out of a love for two iconic films that capture the essence of high-stakes action and immersive worlds. Directors Nick and Lexie were inspired by Top Gun's adrenaline-pumping dogfights and the fun camaraderie between pilots. They wanted to bring that same excitement and urgency to the screen, but set against a vast, unexplored planet. At the same time, Star Wars has always been a major influence on them, with its rich production design, sharp humor, unforgettable music, and expansive world-building. Nick and Lexie sought to create a film that blends the thrill of high-flying action with the sense of adventure and discovery found in galaxies far, far away. STARPOST brings together these elements—pushing the boundaries of both heart-pounding action and deep, character-driven exploration.

STARPOST Has Landed!

We’re beyond excited to unveil our latest creation, STARPOST! Watch it now! Action awaits!

STARPOST

When a ragtag team of pilots, led by the no-nonsense Scout, gets caught in a deadly dogfight over a hostile planet, it’s up to them to outsmart enemy forces, dodge explosive fire, and escape with vital intel that could change the course of the war.

With her no nonsense boss Hutch and relentlessly optimistic partner Dodge, Scout must lead the charge. The mission is simple: get in, grab the intel, and get out, but things go south fast. One by one, their team is shot down, and Scout’s skills are pushed to the breaking point. It's a high-octane race to survive, finish the mission, and get back home - alive.

STARPOST & METAHUMANS

STARPOST: Advancing Sci-Fi Filmmaking with Unreal Engine and Metahumans

In the sci-fi film STARPOST, the filmmakers have embraced new technology to create a visually immersive world that pushes the boundaries of traditional filmmaking. Set in a distant future where humanity explores the unknown reaches of space, much of the film’s striking environments were brought to life using Unreal Engine. With its real-time rendering capabilities, Unreal Engine allowed the team to craft expansive planetary landscapes, canyons carved with ancient temples, and thrilling scenes swooping through geometric caves with remarkable detail. The ability to make adjustments on the fly in a virtual production environment helped streamline the process and ensure the creative vision remained intact.

A key feature of STARPOST is the use of Metahumans to portray the villainous pilots in pursuit of our heroes. These digital characters, created using Metahuman Creator, provided a level of realism that added depth to the story. The ability to design highly detailed, customizable human figures gave the filmmakers the flexibility to capture the pilots' intimidating personalities. From facial expressions to intricate hair and skin textures, Metahumans enabled the team to bring these characters to life in a way that felt natural and engaging.

By integrating Unreal Engine and Metahumans into the filmmaking process, STARPOST demonstrates how technology can enhance storytelling in subtle yet impactful ways. These tools allowed the filmmakers to create detailed worlds and characters that might otherwise have been difficult to achieve, all while keeping the focus on the story. As the use of digital environments and virtual humans continues to evolve, STARPOST offers a glimpse into the future of filmmaking, where new tools and techniques can help bring creative visions to life for independent filmmakers in ways that were once only imaginable for big studios.

The Cast of STARPOST

It was amazing to work with some of our favorite cast members and collaborators on STARPOST!

We’re thrilled to be working with Benedict Mazurek again! Along with STARPOST, Benedict also starred in The West and the Ruthless, Danger! Danger! and our TV Pilot Love’s Gate. Most recently he also voiced the character Rival in The BackSpace Trilogy. Also returning is Alexander Harris! We worked with Alex on our feature films The West and the Ruthless and Danger! Danger! Alex also starred in the TV Pilot for Love’s Gate (and wrote the script!) AND we’re over the moon to be working with Rebecca Gomberg again! Rebecca starred in our feature film The West and Ruthless as Scarlet Winchester.

Two voice actors we’re thrilled to be working with again are George Ashby and Daniel L McCullen, both of whom we worked with on Tales from Black Manor. And for the first time we are thrilled to be working with Dan Anders as the robot Duo.

Announcing our next project, STARPOST!

We’re thrilled to announce our next project in production, STARPOST!

STARPOST has it all! Spaceships! Robots! And an amazing cast that we were delighted to work with!

STARPOST has a very special place in our hearts as it’s the continued culmination of everything we’ve been working towards for years.

When we first started work on our short films, we always wanted to create entire worlds combining live action, 3D, and motion graphics.

After our feature films, The West and the Ruthless and Danger! Danger! we began work on BackSpace and Tales from Black Manor. The first was designed to push 3D and Unreal Engine to its limits, and the later was designed to launch us further into world building.

After completing all of these projects, we’re really excited to head into this next chapter of mixing everything we’ve been learning over the years with STARPOST.
